They Are the Most Formidable ir,
the World,

Special to the Globe.
w AsHINGToN. June SIT is singular
that While our efforts to obtain serviceable
navy have hitherto resulted in producing a
class Of vessels of which the Pioneer has
just been described by Capt. Meade after
her late trial, as a ''marine crazy quilt
foreigns nations not pretending to hold
maritime rank like our own, or to equal us
in resources, steadily acquire war ships far
surprising in efficiency any that we vet
possess. Chill, for example, has in the
Esmeralda one of the fastest cruisers i'm
the world, armed with a very powerful
battery, and q committee of congress only
few days ago declared that this vessel
alone could hold San Francisco at her
mercy. Brazil possesses in her armor-clads
Riachuelo and Aguideban two much more
powerful vessels than Chilli, and almost as
fast Now comes Japan with two vessels
which make her, according to the London
Engineering, the possessor of the fastest,
and in some respects the most formidable
cruisers aiioat." The second of these YES
sells the Jakachiho. has recently left Eng
land for japan, whittier she had been pre-
ceded by her sister ship, the Naniwa. She
has length of 500 feet, q breadth of 46, a
olitii1 VI 1879, anu u displacement OF about
$3.50 tons. Like her predecessor. she is
built of steel throughout. No sails are car
ried, though there are two masts, mounting
gatling guns behind shields in each TOP.
At the bow and stern there are two
powerful ten-inch guns, mounted on re-
volving carriages, each gun being turned bv
two hydraulic engines beneath the protective
deck. In each broadside are six six-inch
guns, mounted on vavassar carriages. coy
cred by steel shields. and at proper places
are large number of Nordenfeidt machine
guns. Electricity is used both for lighting
the ship and firing the guns. Japan's new
vessels are known by official trials to have
attained a mean speed of about eighteen and
three-fourths knots, and the coal stowage
is such as to provide for driving them 9. 900
miles at a rate of thirteen knots 1t seems
clear from these examples that it is per-
fectly possible to obtain fast and
powerful cruisers withuot undertake
ing huge and costly vessels like
the Duillo and Lepanto of Italy. the Infley-
ible and Benbow of England and the For
midable and Admiral Baudin of France.
Perhaps the forthcoming call for bids for
the construction of vessels authorized un-
der the action of congress last year will
show that the United States can procure
vessels worthy to be compared with those
of Chilli, Brazil and Japan. Besides the
two fine vessels built for j a pan in England
by Armstrong & Co., as Just mentioned

ALARMED BY LIGHT.
Burglars Attempt to Rob s. s.
S1nall2s sidenCe.

From recent indications it would appear
that well-organized gang of night work
ers are operating in Minneapolis, DESPITE
the numerous arrests which have been made
of late by the police. The latest entry of
a sensational nature occurred on Tuesday
night, or rather Wednesday morning, at
the residence of S. S. Small. president of
the motor company. Mr.. Small was awak-
ened from sound slumber by stealthy
footsteps in his room. He began to sus-
pect what was going On and lay perfectly
quiet. By the dim light that entered from
the curtained window a shadowy form
could be seen bending over Mir. Smalrs
clothes, lying on a chair at the foot of the
bed. Turning over on his couch Mr. Small
touched an electric button and in second
the Whole house, Including the room III
which this bit of acting was going on. was
filed with flood of light. AS the dark
ness was diSpelled the two men looked at
Mr.. Small with fright written in their faces.
While they were yet looking at him Mr..
Small touched another electric button, and
before the burglars could make move the
heavy burglar alarm with which the house
is provided was ringing like mad. This
aroused the household, and amid the ring
ing OF the bells the two men made their eS-
cape. They had gained an entrance by
forcing window on the lower floor. The
booty secured consisted Of but So so, but
had they been undsturbed for fifteen
minutes more they would have secured a
valuable prize from the bureau. Two young
men who were seen around the premises
during the day are suspected, and it is ex-
Pected that the detectives at work on the
case viii have the guilty ones in jail in a
short time.
A few evenings ago daring attempt
was made to rob Deans boot and Shoe store
on Washington avenue south. The men
had begun to remove pane of glass from
the front window when alarmed bv Officer

ING. John Streeter has commenced action
against Dr. Samuel Friedlander to recover
SIS. 900 damages for alternating the affections

mendous sensation when the case comes up
for trial. The complaint alleges that up to
Dec. 10, 1885, the plaintiff resided with his
wife in this city, but from that time until
May %, 1856, was necessarily absent from
her; that during his absence from his wife
DR.. Friedlander did, knowing her to be a
married woman, and intending to injure the
plaintiff and to deprive him of the affection,
comfort and society Of Mrs. Streeter, in
duce her to leave him and refuse to live
with him. AS a second cause of action Mr..
Streeter alleges thar during February, and
at various times after that date, the doctor
did carnally know Mrs. Streeter, and by
sreason OF so doing did damage the plaintiff
to the extent Of $1,000

RATHER QUIET
But Good On the Whole for ITIlIin.--
The Export Trade.

The Northwestern Miller, in its issue of
to-day, says:
While the output of the mills was not as
heavy as last week as there was no reason to
expect, it showed small gain, and assumed
very creditable proportions for the present
state of milling. The nineteen mills in opera
ton produced 10000 barrels-averaging e.
SEQ barrels daily-against 1856, $50 barrels the
preceding week, and 107.500 barrels for the
corresponding time in 1885, The same num-
Der OF mills are running this week, and they
promise to swell the total flour output some
what. Nearly all have considerable num-
Der OF orders ahead, the majority enough to
keep them running for another month at
least, and any material change from
the present condition of operations
seems hardly probable at present The
mills have ample power and are, al
to produce all the flour they
can. The demoralized condition OF the wheat
market the past few days has had q quieting
effect on -four. and offers made are usually so
low that millers cannot accept them. Our
milers, having guile supply of orders
ahead. are less prone to make concessions
than they would be under other circum-
stances, and held prices pretty firm. The
trade generally seems to be anticipating
substantial advance IN the near future, with
bow much reason remains to be seen. Heavy
as were the -four exports of our mills for
April, those of May exceeded them by over
10000 barrels, and were undoubtedly never
equalled before. In amounts the exports of
May were 2S5,250 barrels, including several
thousand shipped to Canada, against 264, 500
barrels for April. and 433,S00 barrels for
March. The exports for the week ending May
20 were GO, $50 bblS

WANTED: a THonoUGmFAnE.
Two Main Avenues i'm the Eighth
Ward to be Graded.


The committee appointed to advise with
Alderman E.. G. Babb as to the disposition
of the funds available for street purposes
in the Second precinct of the Eighth ward,
has practically agreed upon course. The
amount to be expended this year, including
what may be advanced from next year, will
reach about 81, 600. Aldermen Cooley and
Lawrence have agreed to give, together.
about 81, 900 from the other precincts, on
the ground that the Second precinct is the
largest, has the greatest need and has
hitherto been treated unfairly in the divis-
ion of the ward fund. The committee has
concluded to recommend the grading of two
avenues. one on each side of Nicollet. and
have selected First and Pleasant avenues,
the grading of which will afford the great
est good to the greatest number. 1t was
unanimously held to be better to thoroughly
grade one or two streets than to spend the
money in patchwork, distributed over the
entire precinct
First avenue south is the most important
street in the precinct and will soon be
the thoroughfare of the ward. Buildings
extends further out on it and it will never
be moiested by either motor or horse car

UUEsR COMMENT.

If ever bodily misfortune should appeal to
Charity, 4 poor woman row On the streets of
Minneapolis should speedily grow rich. A
companion accompanies her and attracts at
tention to her misfortune by the wailing
strains OF cracked hand organ. The benefi-
GARY is absolutely without limbs and is sup
ported on the ground by pair OF rockers
fastened about her waist. In lieu OF crutches
she uses a pair of stools, about four inches
high, one in each hand, with which she
swings herself along. In spite Of this in
trinity she preserves smiling demeanor and
brightly acknowledges each of the many
coins which rain into her tin pan.

The Northwestern Miller says: Two facts
nave struck the wheat market this week One
was calculated TO stiffen it and perhaps
slightly advance prices, while the other
should have held prices down, if it did not
lower them. A decrease of nearly 1900, 600
bushels in the visible supply, while not to be
consider ed as strong bull factor ct this late
date, should impart great strength and per-
haps cause a slight advance, yet in the face
OF almost general knowledge of the fignres en-
tuesday, the market was dull and weak.
News of general rains throughout the Mime
apolis belt, where serious complaints OF dry
weather were heard. was the other great fact
which hit the market. It's tendency should
have been bearish but it did not move prices
down.

such evidence, we stand, now that

stood before. The same charges
that we made in the midst of the
canvass we now reiterate deliber-
ately and in cold blood. Such being
the case, "Outsider" and all like
him should see how futile is the
advice to lend the Government our
assistance "for the accomplishment

Guilty is that between the present

honest, efficient, and, above all,
constitutional government, there is
no common purpose, and in the
very nature of things can be none.

HOMESTEADS.

In an article on CLONES for the
Landless," the San Francisco Giro
micle says there is in California alone
an area of over 10000, 900 acres of
land which only needs water to adapt
it TO sustain a considerable popula-
ton. 1t estimates that there is an
area of 3O0,00O,O00 acres of re-
claimable land in the Union, and
contends that it is out of the power
of individual settlers to reclaim this
land, advocating that Congress
should undertake the work of re-
clamation and irrigation on large
scale, for which it is given power by
the constitution and has established
precedent by appropriating money
some years ago for irrigating the
Colorado desert. This is a matter
that the Government of Hawaii will
have to take up, if national progress
is to be assured and greatness
achieved. There must be accommo-
dation made for independent settlers
and producers, or civilization here
will go to the wall. The prospectus
of the Oahu Colonization Company
proves that there are lands on the
group that may be settled, and the
Government, with the abundant
strength it has just acquired, will be
unfaithful to its trust if it allows
another biennial period to pass with
out having accomplished anything
in the way of having an independent
agricultural population adding to the
wealth and stability of the country
