ADMIRALCOMING Sir Lambton Lorraine Leaves London Next Month for a Visit to the United States GOING TO THE ORIENT Is Only Living Englishman on Whom Freedom of New York Has Been Conferred Special Dispatch to The Call. %) e N kY AMERICAN (I = i highest number of hits made by any 13-inch gun of the Oregon was five, while the Wisconsin's best score was nine hits. The value of the Oregon’s firing with 13-inch guns is therefore de- termined by multip!ying all the hits she made by 100 and dividing the result by five, the be; ore of the best pointer. The Winconsin's final result is arrived by the same process, the divisor e latter case being nine. In a sim- ar manner all other guns of whatever :aliber are compared with each other, but In no case are guns of different bore or types thus compared. Every officer and man therefore realizes that no matter what the type of gun he has to fire they may by excellent work win the trophy of their class. The trophies for excellence in gun- | nery are of bronze and the designs ex- | ecuted in low relief. The trophy won {by the Oregon represents a battleship |in an ordinary sea, stcaming with a |bone in her teetk, and she Is firing |from an after gun of her starboard ondary battery. Another battleship ‘is on her vort how. The trophy won by the Paul Jones represents a tor- | pedo-boat destroyer steaming along in & heavy sea. These trophies will be located in a conaspicuous place on board the respective vessels and re- main in their possession until the first following annual record target prac- | tice, when the trophy may go to some | other ship having a higher percentage of efficiency. The dimensions and other principal data of the three scout cruisers to be built for the United States navy have |in length, 47 feet heam and displacing 4000 tons on 17.5 feet draught with a fuli load of 1000 tons of coal, sufficient for a steaming radius of 5000 miles. These vessels will be marked improve- ments on the British scouts of the Ad- venture and Sentinel clagss, of which eight are being built. On a full load displacement, varying from 2015 to 3320 tons, they carry only 380 to 470 tons of coal. Their horsepower under full speed of twenty-five knots is calculated at 16,000, at which thirteen tons of coal would be required for one hour's run, 470 tons in about thirty-six hours. The Amerlcan scouts. carrying 1000 tons of coal and assuming a horsepower of 20,000 would have sufficient fuel for sixty-two hours at a gait of twenty- five knots an hour. SPEED OF THE MONMOUTH. The British armored cruiser Mon- mouth, 9800 tons, 22,000 horsepower, and designed for twenty-three knots trial speed, 1s the last of the nine cruisers o’ the Kent class to be completed. She has been in commission about | three months and arrived at Devon- port July 7 from Gibraltar, having wade the trip of 1200 miles in fifty- three and one-half hours. This is an average ‘of 22.43 knots an hour, a sus- iained sea speed much higher than her designers hoped for, and nearly up to the trial run of eight ‘hours than the ship averaged 22.55 knots with 22,189 horsepower. The hull and ma- chinery were built by the London and Glasgow Shipbuilding Company, Glas- gow, and the boilers are of the Belle- ville type, The question as to the efficiency of the French navy under the manage- ment of M. Pelletan has reached an acute stage in the French Parliament. At a recent meeting of the extra Par- liamentary Commission of Inquiry into the administration of the Naval De- partment M. Lockroy, former Minister of Marine, stated that the Mediterra- nean squadron, which in 1899 was com- posed of thirty-six ships, had now only twenty-three. The condition of the | been decided. They are to be 420 feet | and this would exhaust the suoply of | | northern squadron w de: s combat impossible, as half the | s were unfit for sea service, and |only one destroyer had been added to | the squadron during the last five years. | A vote was taken on the proposition to deal exclusively with the charges against M. Pelletan, and as this vote jwas not carried the minority threatened | to resign. In order to avoid a scandal | M. Clemenceau, the president, managed | to effect a compromise by setting a fur- | ther hearing a few days later. All the former Ministers of Marine and a largs majority of the higher grade naval of- fice e decidedly antagonistic to M. Pelletan. | The British Admiralty has under con- | sideration the cuestion of motor tor- pedo-boats, and may create a class of these small crafts for the navy. An experiment will he made with a boat {130 feet in length, with motors below the water line, to be fitted with a deck torpedo tube which can be pointed in any direction. As torpedo picket hoats these craft would be invaluable in night attacks, as the absence of smoke and funnels would make them almost invis- ible to an enemy. On the other hand, the serious objection to motors for war | purposes is the highly inflammable na- | ture of the fuel, for if a shell struck a tank of gasoline or petroleum it would mean the instantaneous destruction of | the craft. The number of British naval officers studying foreign languages abroad has 1 been increased to twenty, and special | inducements are offered by the Admir- alty. The officers are allowed full pay, and narticular attention is to be direct- ed to the study of 'German, Russian and Japanese languages, and in regard to the latter a Javpanese teacher has been attached to the Weihaiwei station. e e MESSENGER BOYS KILLED i IN A RAILROAD WRECK uch as to ren- i Freight Train Parts and Two Sec- | tions Mcet and Crush Two Lads.

PHOENIX, Ariz., July 24.—Sheriff Preston of Mound City, Kans., has in custody here and will leave with him for home as soon as requisition papers aré honored, John L. Carter, wanted for embezzlement. Carter was a well respected insurance man and church member and years ago was made ad- ministrator of the estate of Olden G. | Hamm. He was found short in his accounts, arrested and placed under ' $3000 bonds in 1898. Owing to his standing his arrest was : considered a joke, though made by due process of law, and it was not expected lhe would have difficulty in clearing himself. However, he gave his friends | the slip the same day he secured bonds and his bondsmen have since been looking for him. He was here some time ago, learning which Sheriff Pres- ton came, only to find the man gone to San Diego, Cal. Fortunately and was arrested to-day. for Preston, Carter returned last 'Ml’nl i to peake. LONDO.
