tnenavy tut poitey in brief that great Une of btUe ships Ilk the Eng lish mn oiwar Benbow Anson and Campcrdown should constructed at once Senators Chandler and McPhsnon however are not In accord with lbs decision reached and the malority and minority reports will be submitted to the Senate Senator Stanford is not wholly committed to the decision reached The naval board whlcn bee retary Tracy appointed recommended the construction of 237 war vessels of various kinds to cost3iaSI50X The Naval rolicy Board appointed by Secretary Tracy made recommendations for building tan first class battle ships of 10000 tons each eight first class of SO0O tons each twelve second class ol 7100 tons each three third class of C3Mtonsfive third class of 0000 tons six harbor monitors of from 4000 to 0003

6400 tons twelve second class pro tectea cruisers of from 3000 to 4500 tons six third class protected cruisers of from 1703 to 3190 tons ten gun vessels and dispatch boats of from 8o0 to 1500 tons sixteen torpedo cruisers of about WW tons three torpedo depot ar tificer ships of 5000 tons each 101 torpedo boats ot sixty five tons each mak ing a total of 227 ships of 61035 tons at a eost of f319315O00 This total includes 457965000 already expended and the authorized expenditure of 281550 000 Wnen the committee proceeded to the consideration of the recommendations the issue was raised whether it is advisable at this time to begin with the construction of the immene Iineof battle ships proposed Including the harbor defense monitors there are forty four of these vessels and they would cost 20249000 while the other veels together would cost only 147 025 000 Chandler and McPherson urged that the United States should continue the present policy of building fast cruisers and defer the building of huge line of battle ships until we had a large number of cruLers or there was some ex igency calling for their construction On this issue the committee was divided the majority agreeing with the policy of the board and Hale was instructed to report favorably the bill introduced by him several days ago embracing the recommendation of Secretary Tracy THREE SATOHS OBJECT They Think line of Battle Ships Are Not Needed Washesqios January 21 There is likely to be bitter opposition to Secre trry Tracys plan for building a navy as submitted to the Naval Committee and as approved bv the majority of that committee at its meeting to day The opposition in the committee comes from Senators fctanford McPherson and Chandler but it is predicted that these gentlemen will receive substan tiai ass stance when the matter comes before the lower house Mr Tracy is imitating England Senator McPherson sad after the meeting to day It rs his scheme to go in for line of battle ships I am in favor of following the American idea of building boats of the double turreted monitor Bhape The United States is not like a European Government in that we have no colonies to protect We have the greatest coast line of any nation in the world and need a heavy naval armament purely for defensive purposes The monitor type vessel is in every way fitted lor this unguarded coast and can go to sea if necesary Secretary Tracys plan for an increase of the navy involves the ex penditure of 1300000000 within the next ten or twelve years In addition to that the secretary recommends coast defense and land fortifications and will again present the bill of the last session providing for an appropriation of J126 000 000 for coast defense purposes making in all 1420000000 It is argued by some of the oldest and bet offlcers in the navy that fifty monitors of the latest improved type costing 75 000000 would give ample protection to the coasts and mace war on foreign commerce Senator Stanford was seen to nlzht and coincided mainly with McPher sons views hat we want to do said the senior Senator from Calif or ma is to protect our harbors I am in favor of building a class of vessels adapted to that purpoe re enforced 1 bv as many last cruisers as shall be needed to make war on the commerce of any nation with which we mar have trouble I am yery doubtful about the propriety ot building these great line of battle ships The monitor type is more adapted to our purposes In fact all authorities agree that this is thebestboatforcoastdefense We have no colonies to protect as other countries have and have no need as far as I can see for line of battle ships If we did their fighting would never settle any tmng One of them might sink a ship of aim ilar size belonging to the na tion with which we were at war or the two might ank each Other but that would do very Ettie toward the settlement of any great question at issue Besides we are not likely to bare any difficulty with the fire or six great nations that are able to send ships to blockade ouf ports Even if we did it is only necessary to protect our harbors Great commercial nations cannot afford to go to war with nation having fast cruisers to destroy their commence except upon a question Of honor that cannot be settled by diplomacy of the most interesting articles sold was a mahopanr rinonr hart stead In

Brady positively refused to sit beside Mr Flack and the foreman Mr Smith was compelled to change his original plan of having Judge Brady preside to leave the place allotted to him on the common floor and to go on the dais and sit between Sheriff Flack and Judge Brady Again when Mr Smith had proposed the only regular toast lhe Sheriff at least flye of the distin guished men sitting on the same dais

and has a depth of hold from the crown of the deck to the keel amldihlp of JO feet and has a draught of but 4 fret 4 Inches loaded The Cuihinss displacement It about 103 fons and its maximum horse powsr 1C00 The hull is built ot iteet throughout every plate and frame being gal yanked so ore also the anchor rail ings and all exposed metal work The keel of flat plate is worked to form the ram The stern is a steel forging ex tending from Ihe spar deck to eight feet along the keel from tbe spar of the ram and the item post is another steel forging Above the water the Cushing will be very plain that the may be a poor target for tbe shot and hell of an enemy Two conning towers and two smokestacks are her most pronounced features A whaleback extends from for ward of the conning tower to the bow and the whole deck is curved so as to throw off shot She has not only twin screws boilers and engines but twin pumping machinery torpedo tubes and steering gear The condenser alone of all the mechanical equipment is single The hull is divided into eleven com partments separated by water tight bulkheads the openings in which close on rubber gaskets with wedge lockins devices which secure them frcm open ing against any pressure The flooding of any compartment excepttheen gine roora would not nenojisly interfere with tbe working of the boat The movements of the vessel will be controlled from twO conning towers which are circular of one quarter inch steel plates and have double sliding doors The engines may Le run together or singly The fighting powers of the boat consist in discharging torpedoes through the tubes in the bow the object being to get near enough to the enemy be fore being discovered to discharge torpedoes To do this requires great speed to cross the danger space before being discovered or struck The Cushing will have to approaeh as close as 200 yards to be within effective firing range The torpedoes are discharged an explosive compound They will travel

often been said that knowing when to retire is tbe true test of a great statesman But if there is any office which it seems almost impossible to surrender it is political office Nearly all ministers nowadays are over SO or ana tney oiien cuug to euicu nil they are 70 or 80 It is in their case more than In any other that tbe ne cessitr of exoenen eland wisdom is pieaaea as an excuse lor weir un natural pretensions nut experience and wisdom are not the exclusive prop erty of old age while too ranch expeti enoe may even until a nianionnai quick insight which if constantly required for political action That old men should be consulted Is perfectly natural but that they should hart tbe decision oi we rate or the next generation entirely In their hands admits ot no JuiUfleatlon The Germans bad an old prorerb which went much further and denied to those who could no longer light the right of Kiring advice Pie Mont mtt thatea lie nlcht mil rsthea Nor can it be denied that even in council the presence of old men li dangerous The authority claimed by old age and the respect naturally paid to it ny tbe younger generation must interfere with the easy and natural transaction ot business If it is dim cult for an old man to bear opposition and to brook rebuke from a younger man it is equally difficult for a young politician to bow to authority or to bells re in the infallibility of old age What tbe result The old states man rraduailv finds himaelf daserted by his honest and Independent friends while opportunists and flatterers lur round the old chief and heln tn ertin gnish in him the lost remnant of humility and of mistrust in his own judgment Members of the Cabinet it has ten been said ourht to be on terms of perfect equality and in discussions concerning the welfare of the country argument ought always to ber stronger than any amount of authority Men of about the same ago can atfora to give and take but a man of 30 cannot well give to a man of 0 and a man of 80 cannot well take from a man of 30 And yet if we took at4ha histnrv tl the world political wisdom baa cer tainly not been the exclusive property Of old age A mere stripling such as Pitt was a better man at tbe wheel titan even the great Duke of lYelluig txn when In his old agehe acted steersman to the vessel of state In oar days it seems difficult to imagice that a man of 20orSu could possibly nothing of bis being Prime Minister 1 Ana yet ue it ail in ail lor practical work a man of 30 is a better man than a man of 80 and the sooner men of SO learn that lesson the better for themselves and for the country they profess tl serve There are exceptions there are brilliant exceptions at the present moment both in England and fa Ger many But exceptions in such cases are apt hereafter to become precedents and to prove extremely dangerous in less exceptional cases Outside the fight ef parties the voice of the eld statesman will always be listened to and carry conviction to many a wavering mind But if bs remains in the turmoil of political warfare he will meet with harsh usage his best motives will be suspected and the pood fame of his yontn and manhood iil oiten be
