Her Commander Says She is the Fastest Vessel Afloat All Things Considered. The United States cruiser Detroit, built by the Columbian Iron Works and Dry Dock Com- pany of Baltimore, made her official four-hour run yesterday. The speed made by the new vessel was 18.48 knote per hour. This remarka- ble speed astonished all on board except her Duildera. Many who have seen the vessel under way believed the severity of the official trial would reduce her speed. The steamer sus- tained the trial gracefully and kept up = regu- lar speed throughout without serious accident to mar her progress or prevent her from dis- tinguishing herself. After suffering so much disappointment, occasioned by unfavorable weather, not @ few were inclined to deal in superstitious thought that the vessel was ill- fated, but, instead of sucha discouraging testlt, the product of Baltimore mechanics came out of the race s pride to all connected with her Since.

At 8:40 the vessel was run d@wn the sound at not more than ten knots, and reached the starting point off Plum Island shortly after 10 o'clock, but as high water did not take place till 11:33 ‘the cruiser was compelled to wait nearly an hour. ig A GREAT TEST BEGUX. At 11:25 the Detroit straightened out about two miles from the starting range and ran down twice like @ race horse before she got under way as best she could. When she came down for the third time every piece of her con- struction trembled as if with determination. No one was on the forward deck but the naval oficers and constructors, the others aboard stood on the deck. A glance at the countenances of the little assembly showed their excitement. ‘The wind made by the cruiser’s majestic strides through the water made it anything but pleas- ant to remain on deck, but all suffered this to witness the vessel's performance. there will always be a representation of the commission en the grounds, While our ex- bibit is large, tt is however, sentative exiibit of England, and we ad tried.

THE TIDE AGAINST HER. The tide on the run down was unfavorable for the vessel's best work, but little effect was noticeable in the resistance. At fourteen min- five utes and thirty seconds past 12 the steamer | passed the first nine-mile boat, which marked the first quarter of the run. ‘This distance was covered in twenty-nine minutes twelve seconds, ‘This run was the best made in the first half of the whoje run, but on the return the great spurt was mede on the first quarter, the Detroit naving run the nine miles twenty-six minutes and eight seconds, which nineteen knots per hour. The entire rnoning time of the cruiser was three hours, fifty-four minutes and twelve seconds, bringing the steamer over the finish line six minutes and twelve seconts before the allowed time by the Navy Department for the run. ‘The time consumed in making the trial shows the Detroit's speed to be at least # knot and one-half better than the specifications ask for. A PREMIUM OF $150,000. For this excess of speed the builders will re- ceive $150,000, the highest premium ever paid to any shipbuilder by the United States gov- ernment. ‘The figures showing the speed made by the Detroit were taken by the press repze- sentatives and confirmed by the naval officers, ‘The official records will not be made public | until the observations are obtained from the coast survey steamers Bache and Blake, which were resvectively stationed nine miles from the start and nme mules from the finish of the course.

Mr. Mott Smith, the Hawaiian minister, is somewhat nonplussed at the recent news from Honolulu.

HL R Newberry, secretary of the United States legation at Constantinople, who returned last week from Cesarea and Marsovan, where he investigated the recently reported persecu- tion of Christians by Mahommedans and the burning of the Marsovan College, conducted by Dr. Herrick, bas made a statement in regard to the origin of the disturbances. Mr. Newberry appears to consider tif action of the Turkish authorities as in part at least justifiable. He says that the disturbances had their beginning in Turkish or Armenian con- spirators inciting the populace to revolt by se- ditious placards which were stuck on the doors of the American school. nguage. They were of avery in- flammatory and treasonable character and de- clared that it was necessary for the people to shake of the yoke of slavery laid on them by the tyrannical sultan. : wherry also found that bombs charged with dynamite had been seized by the authori- ties. On account of those facts, showing that a genuine and dangerous plot existed, Mr. New- berry considered that the arrest of the plotters ‘Was justified. As there were doubtless many innocent per- sons among the 900 who were arrested on the charge of having been concerned in the con- spiracy Mr. Newberry induced the grand vizier to grant amnesty to 600 of the prisoners, who were released, and the remaining prisoners are to be brought to trial in court at Angora, in Asiatic Turkey. Mr. Newberry denied the truth of the report that letters addressed to the American legation had been opened by the Turkish authorities. ‘The letters, Mr. Newberry explained, had been delayed owing to the couriers who carried the letters being provided with bad horses and owing to the insufficiency of the escorts to protect the couriers from the dangers of travel in Asia Minor. The American legation has, therefore, de- manded that the Turkieh post office authorities shall organize an efficient and well-protected mail service, traveling at more frequent inter- vals and giving prompt and more regular de- livery than at present. — | | | ‘Woman in Washington.

Charles Nordhoff writes to the New York Herald from Honolulu, under date of April 8, an interesting letter regarding the sentiment there on annexation of the Hawaiian Istands by America. Among other things he says: I can only say that if there should be rioting this would be the fault of those who in such a time as this are ostentatiously flaunting their fore eign annexation fiags in the eyes of the native population, wao—on the planters’ own admis- sions—are unanimously and strongly opposed toannexation. The orderly and peaceful con- duct of the native people under the gcire um- stances and under the aggravations of the planter annexationists is admirable and de- serves the greatest praise. If there should be trouble here—of which there is no likelihood— the biame will be entirely upon the annexa- tionists, who are to the last degree eubittered by the failure of their schemes, and some of them would welcome the violence they are in- citing, because they have no hone of success. Isaw at San Francisco and on the ship Co- nung here a number of old and new acquaint- ances—some provisional government men and annexationists—others favorable to the main- tenance of the old system. All of both parties frankly acknowledged that the natives, 40,000 in number and all of proper age, and write and brought up under American mis- sionary training, witha very few exceptions, are strongly opposed to annexation.

I wish to emphasize this fact—confessed by all the annexationists I have seen—that the na- tives aro solidly opposed to annexation. ‘There are against these 40,000 natives 1,928 Ameri- cans, men, women and children, most, though by no means, all of whom want and cry out for annexation. | The leaders of these are heads of the fading provisional government. ‘That these 1,928 are not unanimous is clear from the fact that the annexation and pro- visional government sckeme has made trouble in social circles, troubie in the church and in business relations, so ruthlessly have the plan- ter annexationists pushed their zevolutionary schemie and purpose among their own class, An American or other foreigner who does not go in for annexation must keep quiet or suffer persecution in church, society and business. ‘The present situation is this: The provisional government continues to exist, but is slowly losing adherents. It wonld go to pieces by a slight push, but it is the policy of the native leaders and their American advisers not to push, but to wait, The provisional government leaders have no hope except in annexation, They know and fess that ther cannot maintain an inde- pendent existence, but would be voted down at once, not merely by the natives, but by a con- siderable number Americans and other The impression of careful observers is that they are in the situation of the man who held a bear by the paws and did not now how to let go without help. They would uit if they saw how to quit. ‘The influence of he queen and all her advisers is exerted, so far, to keep the people absolutely quiet, wait- ing for President Cleveland's decision, which they believe will be just and will restore the constitutional government. No one excepta very few absurd people fears any violent or lawle: hore only if annexationists should unendurably irritate the peovle, as some of the less judi- cious seem inclined to do. “THE PEAR” NOT 80 RIPE. The American minister, Mr. Stevens, though substantially functus officio, Col. Blount hav- ing plenary powers, still goes about urging and encouraging annexation. moval would help the situation bere, and, per- haps, be welcome to him, ax he has certainly discovered by this time tha: “the pear” is not £0 ripe as in his queer dispatches he persuaded Mr. Harrison it was. A republic goes not seem to be favored by anybody here, RL POETEsS, A FACTORY Lucy Larcom Dies in Boston—Her Presenti- ment. Miss Lucy Larcom, the poetess, died at 10 o'clock last evening at Boston, She had been ill for some time, The day on which Dr. Phillips Brooks was taken ill he received a let- ter from Miss Larcom in which she said she had a preseniiment that she would never see him again until they met “beyond the river.” | Lucy Larcom was born in Beverly Farms, Mass. in 1826, who died when Lucy was a child. On her father's death her mother, who was left with eight young children to xupport and educate, | removed to Lowell, Mass, Lowell and here her educa- tion went on until she was compelled to earn Ler own living.
