It Is sail the President hat filed no tice that he will veto the river and har bor bill should it exceed the sum appro priated by the House.

It is likely that a.court of inquiry will be ordered to meet at Mare Island to ascertain why the Ranger was permitted to start lor isehring bea with her machinery in such bad shape as to ne cessitate her putting into Port Towns- end in violation oi her orders to proceed direct. The Secretary of the Navy has received a report of the court of inquiry appointed to examine her machinery at Port Townsend, and the report says her Captain was justified nnder the circum stances in putting into Port Townsend. A crumb of comfort to the Mare Island folks is the fact that the blame for the Ranger's condition may be fixed on the Navy Department, as peremptory orders were received to sail on a certain day, and it was impossible to get her, ready in that short time. It ia understood that Secretary Tracy has finally decided, after a review of all the testimony, to sustain the action of the Naval Examining Board in finding Commander Frederick R. Smith morally unfit for promotion. The action of the President is still necessary to finally complete this long-pending case, bnt with the approval of the board's finding by the head of the Navy Department, there can be hardly any doubt as to the result. The President has no alterna tive but to drop Commander Smith from the rolls of the navy if he approves the proceedings of the board. If he disap proves, another board would have to re verse the findings of the first board before Commander Smith could be pro moted, and inasmu h as all of his seniors, with but few exceptions, have already officially stated that they do not consider him fit for promotion, it would be a rather difficult matter to get a board that would make a report favorable to the . candidate. The Judge Advocate- General who first reviewed the report approved it, ana Dotn secretary Tracy and Assistant Secretary Seeley have done ltkewipe, after a moat exhaustive review of all the testimony and of the papers filed in behalf of the candidate since the board mad its report.

MEN OF OAKLAND Tnxra wobds arm Abotb PROACH. A Am Interview With Rom Wall Knot Cltlicni Bring Out Crtalu FoU f th Greatest Interest nod Importance. The interviews which follow are from people well known in Oakland and the reader can be assured that every word ' they say is true. They re certainly most remarkable assertions, and coming as they do just at the present time, they can be read with the greatest interest and profit by all. George II. Fogg, the well known notary public of 141 Broadway in the course of a conversation stated these facts : " About five or six years ago I was suffering from a disease of the kidneys which troubled me for a year or so be fore I discovered what the real cause of -my diacomfort was. Upon the recom mendation of a friend I began taking Warner's Safe Cure and took three or four bottles. It helped me immediately. I spoke of it to friends of mine at the time and many of them have used it with benefit. Itill recommend it at every opportunity. Since using the ' medicine I have bad no return of the trouble thought that was some thrw or four vears ago." "Can you givo me the name of any of your friends who have been helped by . this remedy?" "Yes, it you will see . Mr, Geo.-8. Kaismlth, the insurance man. of 403 Ninth street he will tell you moreabout it. He took it because he saw my name indorsing it." Mr.. Naismith is well known to the business and social circles of Oakland. He greeted the reporter cordially and said : "Five years ago I was eonfined to my bed and the doctors gave me np to die but I am now np and able to attend to my business. Warner's Safe Cure is a great remedy and in my case acted upon my system at once, and completely restored me to health." Mr. B. . Armstrong senior partner in the well known paint house of Armstrong & Merchant. 4'1 Third street, San Francisco and -!ii-v Oakland home is at 1520 Broad ay, i-aid : "Warner's Safe Cure saved my life and my wife's. I had kidney trouble so bad that I did'nt know a moment's peace while my wife was a martyr to those special troubles peculiar to women. We were induced by our friends to try the Safe Cure and it has completely restored as to health. Now , we always keep it in the house and nee it as a family medicine and would' not be with out it for any consideration." Mrs. Armstrong was also seen at her Oakland home and fully bore out her husband's statements as to her recovery being remarkably strong and healthful in appearancev George W. Baker is a painter by trade and lives in a neat little cottage at Bar-, ryman Station just beyond Berkeley. In answer to our reporter he said: "Five years ago I had dyspepsia so bad that I did not know w hat it was to enjoy a meal. I got in such a condition that everything distressed me fearfully and at times I would be seized with pains' in my chest and abdomen so severe that I "fell to the ground as though my backbone -were suddenly fevered with an axe. Well do I know what it ia to be stricken -down in the street and have to be carried home in agony. This went on for over a year and all the while I was trying to find some doctor who could help me but without success. I spent hundreds of dollars and was no better than at first when one day I saw an advertisement of Warner's Safe Cure. It was a big poster on a fence and I tell you sir, I thank God to-day for the man that put it there. Almost in despair I bought a bottle but by t he time that was gone I was eating heartily of anything I desired. The second bottle cured me and I don't think I finished it either." Frederick A. Wilder, the genial pro- " prietor of the Windsor House was seen at his hotel at the corner of Washingtan and Ninth streets. Mr. Wilder has spent considerable time in Arizona and the southern country and spoke of his experience as follows : "In 1883 1 was in Arizona on business . and while there I contracted a severe cold which settled in my kidneys. The bad water of that part of the coantry aggravated my trouble till I had a well developed case of Bright's disease. .1 -tried different remedies with but slightly beneficial results until last December. At that time I was attacked with the Grip which left me with my kidneys in a very weak condition and also brought on inflammation of the bladder, I be gan using Warner's 8afe Cum and am now on the fourth bottle. It is a fine thing and has done me a world .of good. The pain has disappeared from my bladder and the weak feeling from across my hips. 1 -heartily indorse the remedy and am still using it." Albert Rowe of the Pacific Borax Works, Oakland, in a recent conversa tion said: "I have had kidney trouble with nervousness and loss of sleep for years. Nothing seemed to help me in the least till I tried Warner's Safe Cure. I have taken about a dozen and a half of the remedy and now. my nerves are steady and I eleep like a top." Judge E. O. Crosby, the well known attorney of 1622 Park street, Alameda said : "Continnal office work and sedentary habits brought on me a severe attack of kidney trouble with sleepless ness and weakness across the small of my back. I began taking Warner's Safe Cure and found immediate im provement. I took about fifty bottles and at the end of that time was perfectly . well." The above statements are not from obscure people living in the Eastern States, but Irom well known persons re- Biding right here in .Oakland where the truth of their assertions can be easily verified. Such testimony ought to be convincing. Oakland Tribune, Goal has been discovered near Everett, , &
