THE FAILURE OF JOHN ROACH.

THE FAILURE OF JOHN ROACH.
 Said To Re Able To Meet All Claims
 Nm Full.
 NEW YORK, July 20.-All of MT. Roach's workmen were paid off in full to-day. ''My father owes no workingman a penny. He has never been sued, never has sued any body and never had note protested in his life, said Garrett Roach tonight. Lawyer Bookstaver worked this morning on MT. Roach's books and said that the inventory would show g with which to pay every $1 of debts. Assignee Webb said to-day that MT. Roach owns property worth $4, ,000, ,000. The exact liabilities could not be stated for several days yet. An interview with Secre- tary Whitney was being arranged and as soon as the assignees learned the govern ment's attitude they would know what to do. It was not unlikely that shipbuilding would be resumed pretty soon by Mr. Roach or ates his statement that MT. Roach can pay a good deal more than he owes. ''He is 8 rich man," said he. fsThe Garland opinion hampered progress on the other cruisers, MT. Roach's health was failing and it was more prudent to have his proper ty III the nanos or asslgnees than ln ms own"
 One of MT. Roach's bondsmen says: s'I was not surprised by the assignment. The insti- tutions from which MT. Roach had borrowed refused to lend him any more. He tried to get up syndicate of his friends to furnish money, but did not succeed. They would have helped him as regards the Dolphin, but were afraid Secretary Whitney would pursue the same course with the other cruisers and would have the vessels on their hands. D James E. Ward, bondsman, said that Mr. Roach was very sick. He was unfit on Friday to talk about his affairs. When MT. Ward questioned him he could not make intelligent answers. MT. Roach could have raised $2,- COG, 900 among his friends, but did not like to run the risk on account of the govern ment's attitude.
 F. w. Gallaudet & Co.,, who are preferred creditors, state that none of the notes had gone to protest. MT. Roach had formerly borrowed largely through them, but of late not much. A. R. Whitney said to reporter to-day: 'I supposed I was a bondsman for General says there is no contract and of course if there is no contract there is no bond. The statements as to MT. Roaehs health are true. When I saw him Friday he acted like child"
 United States Marshal McMahon had heard nothing to-day in the way of seizure pro ceedings against any of the Roach ships. The bids for the cruisers and the Dolphin put in on July 3, 1883, were as follows: Roach, ta, $619, 9,000; Dolphin, $315, 1000. Cramp, Chicago, s1 ,O80, ,O00; Boston, $650, 900; At lanta, s650, 900; Dolphin, s375, 1000. Harlan & Hollingsworth, Chicago, S1, ,12O, 900; Bos- ton, $775, 900; Atlanta, $777, ,O00. Delama- tyr, Chicago, $1 ,163, 900.

NEW YORK, July 20.-Mr. J.

Webb said: ''I have not made any defi- nite arrangements regarding what I intend doing here. have only been ashore few hours and have seen nobody representing the yacht club, the present holder of the American cup. I am now about to visit my charge, the Genesta, for the purpose of see- ing Captain Carter, who will sail the yacht in the race for the cup next month. By the middle of this week I expect the dates for the three races will have been named. Of course have already framed my ideas re- garding the result and I believe the Genesta will carry the trophy home. Your boats the Puritan and Priscilla are, I learn, very fast and am glad to hear it. The racing spars for the Genesta, which have just arrived on the Furnessia, will be placed in position at once and think she will participate in the annual cruise of the New York Yacht club the latter part of this month"

WASHINGTON, July 20.-Owing to the ab- sence of Secretary Whitney nothing definite could be ascertained at the Navy department to-day respecting the course to be pursued to secure the completion of the new cruisers, the Atlanta, Boston and Chicago, but it was the general impression among the navy off cers that work on them will be suspended until the Dolphin is finally settled. Heartfelt sympathy for MT. Roach was shown on all sides and some officers openly expressed the. opinion that he had been unjustly treated. A prominent officer in speaking of the mat ter to Star reporter is quoted as saying: ''Mr. Roach's failure is really a disastrous thing for the government. The Attorney Generals decision may have a more wide spread effect than was thought. Think of ing in this country just when most anxious to build our own ships. plant can't be procured in day, it takes years. We ought to do everything possible to encourage shipbuilding
 Look at the different course Germany has pursued. She possesses the best plant in the world for constructing guns and does not intend to be behind hand on shipbuild- ing. The German Lloyd steamers were built in Scotland, but few years ago when there was danger of trouble with England Germany realized the position she was in as regards building ships and at once subsidized the German Lloyd line, provided the pany had its vessels built in Germany. As al result Germany will soon be able to build ships as good as any other country, for she is gradually procuring the necessary plant"
