Mystery that the Navy-Yard officials | appear to be unable to fathom surrounds | an attempt discuvered ten days ago make a failure of the launching of the | ew battle-ship Connecticut, which Is to | Occur to-morrow, Some person or per- sons placed an obstruction on the ways, Just below the water line, that would certainly have impeded the vessel and perhaps torn out her bottom had it been allowed to remain, None of the Navy-Yard officlals will talk for publication, but all admit that the obstruction was discovered and that | It was formidable enough to fe done | serious damage to the Connecticut. They trangely silent on the nature of the obstruction. “Tt was not a pile,” sald one official, “nor was it a bomb, From the way It was fastened it was apparent that it could not have floated in, It was placed deliberately in the path to be taken by | the Connecticut for the purpose of spotl- {ng the launching, and it undoubtedly Night Watch Inerbaged, “The obstruction waa placed where we found it in the night time, It would | have been impossible for any one to done the work by daylight. Up to the time we discovered it we had two night watchmen, Now we have six around the ship, armed, and they have orders to shoot anybody approaching them who acts in a sdsplclous manner.” ‘The official was asked if he thought that the obstruction had been placed by He was also certain that it had not been put In place by dissatisfied laboring men, as some had suggested. © “In fa advantage of the men who work at building Iron shipa to have battle-ships constructed at the navy yards, The wages are better and the Government is a more liberal employer than any private concern for that sort of work. We have had no trouble at all in the construction of the Connecticut with laboring men.” / It Is the general opinion among of- ficials and clvillan employees of the Navy-Yard that the obstruction was ar- ranged and anchored by a crank who Is opposed to the building of war vessels, There is no possibility that her ob- stacle can be put in the way of the launching. Just before the time for the release of the leviathan divers will go under the water and make a thorough Inspection of every part of the launch- | Ing machinery not visible above the sur- face Bi at of Battle-ships, ‘The Connecticut Is the largest battle ship in thy world with the exception of her tw! Pd Louisiana. The gatés of the Navy4Yard will be opened to the public at 9 o'clock and at 11 o'clock Miss Welles, attended by two maids, will break the bottle of champagne over the ship's bow and the guards will be knocked away, ‘Miss Welles will hold « rehearsal this afternoon, assiated by the naval con- structors. The bands from the Kearsarge, Texas and Kentucky will be on hand and will play the natjenal anthem in unison as the oat starts down the ways, Follow: ing the launching there will be @ lunch. eon, at which about one hundred and forty ie gid will sit down with the Sec- Vv Among the to the Bec- retary’s table are Grover Cleveland, Al- ton B, Parker, Mayor b jellan, the ‘Welles party, Senator 0.
