TILE CRUISER BALTIMORE,

Secretary Tracy Valves the Question OF
Acceptance Until lie Hears from the
Cramps.
WASHINGTON, D, G., Oct. 4.-The re.
port Of the trial board on the cruiser
Baltimore relative to her recent trial
run, was received at the Navy Depart.
ment this morning. The board states
that the average horsepower developed
by the engines was S,07zSs, the require.
ment being 5000, thus making def
cheney OF 22l2 pnwers, which would in-
cur n penalty Of S2,2l2. The screw made
an average Of ll70 revolutions a miu-
ute, which, allowing 10 per cent slip,
would give her an average speed Of 1875
knots an hour. The report states that
during the run two OF the indicators,
which had been thoroughly tested be.
fore the trial, brokean II was necessary
to substitute two others which had not
been tested. On the record OF these In.
dicators depended the recording Of the
development Of horse. power
Secretary Tracy, after reading the re-
port this morning, decided to waive the
question Of acceptance Of the vessel until
he could hear from the Cramps, the con.
tractors, as 10 whether or not they were
willing TO let tho lust trial staud as the
final one, or preferred TO have another
trial run with tho indicators thoroughly
tested. His Difference In the matter is
based on tho accident To the indicators.
The report shows that the slip made a
wonderful speed, Notwithstanding the
failure TO develop0,0O0 horse power, aud
the Secretary is inclined to look upon
that achievement as eminently satiSfac.
tory. The allowance made for slip in
calculating the speed is n large ono.
LATER-'fhe Cramps will be allowed
another opportunity to test the horse
power Of the cruiser at their own ex-
pense. Should they prefer not to have
another trial, the cruiser will be accept.

have been driven out by the White
Caps. The elders disappeared some time
ago when the agitation was hot against
them, but a few days ago returned, be.
lieving the storm to have blown over.
However, the people who warned them

ty or fifty men, masked and r0bed Ia
white, last night visited the house Of
William Barrett, Thomas Smith and
Lee Barrett, where the elders have
been, searching the houses. Some one,
however, had given warning, aud not an
elder was to bs found. These men were
cautioned against allowing the elders TO
ever darken their doors again aud the
elders left the county yesterday. A
number OF converts have declared they
are done with II. The experience Of a
lady Of the neighborhOOd, now In
Bowles, KY, has bad q beneficial effect.
She went " Utah as convert but Is
back in her old home warming others.
