SKETCH OF THE VESSEL,
FEATURES OF THE NEW PROTECTED CRUISER.

FEATURES OF THE NEW PROIECIED ChU lSEh'
The new cruiser San Francisco is sister vessel
of the Philadelphia, which was recently fitted for
sea- Her builders, the Union Iron Works of San
Francisco had the advantage of experience in con-
structng the Charleston, and that the work on her
has been pushed may be inferred from the fact
that actual construction did not begin until April
i, 1883, and she launched October 26, loS9
The Philadelphia was begun October %, 1887,
and the vessel was launched in August last. As
she is now, without guns or mastS, the San
Francisco is handsomer vessel than the Charles
ton with all her fittings. Her lines are far more
trim and her greater length and the symmetrical
shape of her hull give her the appearance OF fine
steam yacht All experts that have examined
her declare her lines to he finer than those OF any
other vessel of the new Navy, and that for this
reason and the strength Of her boilers she should
also be the swiftest vessel among the new cruisers
Some idea of the relative size of the San Francisco
and the Charleston may be gained from this table

Comstoek,s Report.

WASHINGTON, March 20.-Secretary
Proctor to-day transmitted to the house
in further response to the resolution Of
that body relating to the floods on the
Mississippi river, a copy of the report
from Col. @. B. Combstock, of the corps
of engineers and who is president of the
Mississippi river commission, which says:
SIN my opinion the Mississippi river
commission has as much money as it can
wish to use IN the protection of the gov
eminent levees, as far as the same may
be practicable during the present flood.
unless there should be further heavy
rains. In that case $3.50 900 additional
would be needed. Thus far, though the
river at several points is higher than ever
before, but four serious breaks in levees
are reported to me and from them the
danger to life is not great. But any ad-
ditional rise would cause widespread dis
aster, and even as it is the danger of dis
aster is very great. Several steamers and
barges could be supplied to give aid to
those ID peril.
