GUNS AND CARRIAGES NEARLY READY

THE OFFICERS OF THE NEW CRUISERS ARE
TOLD THAT THEY NAY SOON co TO SEA
The new cruisers that were built by John Roach q
Sons, in addition to being magDed by jealous officers
and builders and heads of departments. have been
object lessons Of the way which the Navy Depart
ment has managed the now Navy. Delay after delay
has occurred In the most inexplicabe way In provide
ing these vessels with their armament. The gun
tracks, gun carriages and gun ports have proved do
fecve In design and the Ordnance Bureau has had 10
suffer much adverse criticism for fits delay OF nearly
two years in completing these vessels with their bat
teries. Yesterday, however, Commodore scard Chief
of tho Bureau Of Ordnance gratilied the officers Of
the Atlanta, Boston and Chicago with an announces
ment which promises that they may In
few months moro be able TO leave
the Navy Yad and 60 upon sea
duty. The guns for the Boston finished and all
are at the Navy Yard, excepting one which is retained
at the proving ground at Annapolis for experimental
purposes. This gun will be sent to NewYork In few
days The guns for the Atlanta are also finished and
are at the Navy Yard, but delay will follow in
the mounting of them, because tho new gun circles OF
tracks, are not ready. The twoinch and the sx.inch
breec III loading rifles af the Atlanta have been ds'
mounted and hosted of tho vessel, that the new
steel clip circles may be put down in place Of the
composition tracks that have proved SO disastrous
failure. go .,., ,..,.,
The principal fault Win tne composition
was thai they were rvetcd through the wooden deck

Augustus Murray, well-known olorcd man Of this
city, who Is we'll informed polite from tho coOred
mans point of view, Is much ncascd at an article
which appeared in a Democratic apcr recently, In
which II was stated that about n per cent OF the
coorcd voters OF this city would tbs year leave tho
ranlis OF the Republican party SAT- Mr.. Murray yes
crday: am curious TO know how It is possible for
T. McCants Stewart, who, believe Is tho author Of
the article to know so much aboutthe political CON
dition Of tho colorcd people OF sowYork 1t IS
nonsense to talk of 40 per cent Of b colord vote
1000 voters, going to the Democrats. There
isn't colorcd political leader in tie State, and we
don't require any, when VIC can lscn to the telling
words that como from the lips OF sud- men as Colonel
ngcrs0ll and Frederick Douglass no colorcd people
arc no fools, and there isn't colorodman In the whole
State who will vote the Democratic icl'et unless from
selfish motives. OF course tho cdorcd people arc
forming Democratic clubs in all tie Assembly dis
ricts. But why notl There arc many "skin'
politicians among them as there among tho whites
But Mr.. Stewart says It is political exodus Where
did he get his hnowlcdgei He aIo says that the
colored voter Is shaking on the claims OF political
bondage Why, they did that under tho Republican
Administration OF President Lincoln and have becn
FREQ TO act ever since.
Speaking Of President Clevelands lIberality, 1t re
minds me of a drowning man graspng for straw
when the Democratic party makes lid for the colored
vote. But they have come too late to suit me and
every other colored who not looking for personal
aggrandIzement Mr. Stewart is wong In his asser-
tIonS concerning the Southern Lngue IL is
benevolent organization, and has nc political sgnif
canoe, and / chalege any to prove the
contrary. President Jarrett, OF tao organization,
holds Government position, SO u r!. IS
highly important for him TO become Democrat But
in what particular has President Cleveland been lib
era with coloed patronage What tho signican ,e
Of few Old rusty appointments, a. compared with
ono act of General Grant, who mad II possible for
colorcd men 10 represent their honrs In tho South
as congressman"
Mr. Murray spoke OF the recent cobrcd Democratic
conference indianapolis, and mentioned the names
Of a number OF coored men at that conference, who
also hold Office under the Government. But they
are, Of course, all Democrats now he said.
