FOR THE COMMON DEFENSE.

The Type of Vessels to Defend Our
Coast.
Especial to THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Dispatch. ]
WASHINGTON, April 4-The bids for the
coast defense vessel were opened by Sec
rotary Tracy yerterday. There were but
three bidders present. These were the
representatives of the Union Iron works,
of San Francisco; Cramp Brothers, of
Philadelphia; and the Quintard Iron works
of New York.
THE BID OF THE CRAMPS
was the lowest, being S1,614,0 600. They
were S14, $50 less than the Union Iron
works of San Francisco But it is not
thought at the navy department that they
will secure the contract. The specifca-
lions for this vessel call for a guaranteed
horsepower of $500. The Union Iron
works of San Francisco bid on the depart
ment's plans and specifications withoutany
alteration of class l. for hull and machinery.
Glass OF the contract was the depart
ment's hull with such notifications of the
engine and machinery as the bidder saw fit
to indicate. Glass was the departments
hull with engine and boilers Of the bidders
design. The bid of the Cramps was not in
Guided in any of these. They modified the
departments plan, but offered to guarantee
800 horsepower for the two horizontal re-
turn-tire tube boilers while the specifca-
tons only called upon them to develop
1900 horsepower. They did not guar
antee any horsepower under the
coil boilers. Those four boilers in
addition are to give 1900 horse
power, which the Cramps failed to guaran-
tee. They submitted their bid under class
l, which, of course, will not be allowed.
on THE OTHER HAND,
the bid of the Union Iron works was regu-
lar in every respect, and the figure sub
mitted was based upon the plans and specl-
tications as prepared by the navy depart
ment The bid will be referred to the en-
gineer-in-chief and the chief of naval con-
struction for report and recommendation.
But it seems to be the opinion of the naval
officials that the award will be made by
Saturday, and that Secretary Tracy will
give it to the Union Iron works. The YES
sci will be POI feet long, 49-foot
beam, and her armour to be of thickness
equal to at least sixteen inches. The con-
tract time for the completion of the ship is
three years.

Before dc nter-State COmmeace Commission.

WAsHISGToN, April 4-The Interstate
cOhSnerce commission to-day began the
hearing in the case of the Grand Trunk
railway company of Canada, on the charge
Of violating the Interstate commerce law
by granting rebates on traffic taken from
points in the United States to points in
Canada, and by charging less than its pub
lished rates on such shipments. The in
formation upon which the citation was
issued, was, AZ least III part, furnished by
the Michigan Central railway.
Attorney Pond for the Michigan Central
said that in the correspondence between
Ledyard and the officials of the Grand
Trunk now before the commission, ii was
freely admitted that the company had
charged large shippers of coal and coke
from Buffalo and Black Rock, a rate con
siderably less than its published rate,
which he held to be a direct violation of the
interstate commerce law. Attorney
Kirchner, for the Grand Trunk, denied
sthat any rebates had been allowed to ship
Peers on business originating in the United
StrreS.

had been made with the receivers of coal
in Canada, which were in some cases less
tsan the regular tariff rates. He stated
49, these special rates were plainly stated
in the contracts made with the shippers.
Kirchner contended that this traffic from
point in the United States TO a point in
Canada did not come within the control or
Jurisdiction of the interstate commerce
commission. The amended interstate
commerce act says the provisions of the
act shall apply Ito any common carrier
engaged in transportation from any place
in the United States 10 an adjacent foreign
country He contended that the proper
Interpretation and meaning Of the words
would be to the border Of an adjacent
foreign country and not into" that
foreign country. Kirchner insisted it was
NOT WITHIN THE JURISDICTION OF CONGRESS
to regulate commerce into another country
1t might be very proper he thought, to
regulate traffic from point in the United
States through a foreign country, to an
other point in the United States, OF from
one state TO another, but not into a foreign
country. He asked ten days to file a printed
brief which was granted.

JERSEY CITY, April 4.-Bernard Biume

fleeing the insurance companies, has been
arrested in this city.
The method Of the gang was to rent
store, put in a small stock, obtain heavy in,
surance, when preparations were made for
an incendiary blaze, lamp would be
broken. Near it were placed bladders filed
with benzine. Around the bladders was cir
Gle of gun powder. A slow fuse was used TO
ignite the powder, which exploded the blad-
ders. and like a flash the place would be
ablaze leaving no trace of inCendiary work
except broken lamp to deceive the insur-
ance people. The occupants Of the store
would be absent attending u social gather
ing at the home Of one OF the other conSplr-

When Blume was located, between his
mattresses were found twenty-five blad-
ders of benzine. The gang are Anarchists

The men VINO were arrrigned in Brook
lyn to-day, pleaded not guilty, and were
remanded without bail till Monday. The
men were very nervous while in court.
Information about these men was
given to Justice Naeger, by Fred

but when he learned the gang had made an
order to burn a house Of Newark, New
