Naval Onicers Express Their Opinions Of
the Disaster.
WASHINGTON, June 23.-The news Of
the sinking of her najesiy's ship. Victoria.
caused profound sensation at the navy
department here. People who saw the
beautiful aud stately Blake. flagship Of
the British squadron at the naval review.
thought she was great ship. hut she was
of secondary importance. when compared
with tho ill-faicd Victoria. For. whilc
the Blake was largo armorcd
cruiser, the Victoria was full
fiedaed battle ship. nearly 1000 tons
larger than tho Blake. She bore about
the same relation to tho Blake that our
own new battle ships. Indiana and Ore
gon. do to the armored cruiser. New York.
The Camperlown, which dealt the fatal
blow, was of about the same size as the
Victoria. She resembles the United States
ship Charleston in general appearance,
though she IN twice as large.
Naval officers here feel that one result
of tho catastrophe will be TO emphasize in
striking manner the terrible efficiency
Of the ram as a weapon of naval ofrensc.
for. although tberc was no intention ri
using il Extensively In this case. when IL is
presumed that the ships were engaged in
simple maneuvers, it's availability in time
Of war has been amply demonstrated.

ALDERMAN PRINCES VOTE.

One of the principal issues in the re-
cent municipal election was the manage
ment of the liquor agency. 1t was al
legged by the Republicans that during the
past year the agency had, under the man.
agement of Mr.. Daniel J. Carr and his
assistants, been no better than the lowest
rum shop, dispensing liquors for all sorts
of purposes and to all sorts of persons.
The Republicans pledged themselves
through the declarations of their news
paper organs and their party leaders, to
do their utmost, if given charge of the
municipal government, to reform the
abuses of the agency, and to make that
institution as far as possible what the law
intended it, and all it intended it. a
medium for dispensing liquor for medici-
nal and mechanical purposes. Every
candidate on the Republican ticket knew
that this was prominent question in the
campaign. Every Republican on the
ticket by accepting nomination pledged

The kind of justice dispensed by the
police courts of New York city can be
inferred from the character of the men
appointed to preside over those courts.
The last appointment, and altogether the
most disreputable one since that of Pat
Diver, is that of Barney Martin. His
fitness for the position, which by the
way carries with it salary of $1,000, can
be judged by his record. He began life
as horse car conductor on the Third
Avenue line in New York, but was soon
discharged. He then set up saloon
known as the Burnt Rag" in Blocker
street. Subsequently he kept saloon
on Twenty-third street, near Sixth ave.
nue., having as partner ''Red Leary'' and
his wife. Red Leary' was at that
time the most notorious burglar in the
country and his wife, Kate was widely
known pickpocket. The three lived to-
gether on the premises. Martin applied
for license in Leary's name, but when
the board of excise discovered who
Leary was, the license was refused, al
though afterward it was granted in the
name of John Leary. After serving as
coroner for three years following his
election in 1882, Martin was candidate
for appointment as order of arrest clerk
under Sheriff Grant. Protest were made
against him by the Tammany organiza-
ton of which he was member, but he
was appointed in spite of them. He was
member, but he was appointed in spite
of them. He was indicted by the grand
jury while in that Office. He was after
wards made deputy commissioner of
of public works by Mr.. Gilroy, and on
May A, 1891, was made commissioner of
jurors. He is the Tammany leader in
the old 7th dist. and is in the inner ring
of the Tammany management.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 5.

The Argus appears to have met with a
change of heart on the subject of trans
ferring the city's Portland & Ogdensburg
stock to the sinking fund. When Mayor
Baxter first proposed this policy the Ar
gus strenuously opposed it on the ground
that it would induce foreign banking in
situations, about whose financial stand
ing there might be uncertainty, to lend
us money! rather absurd reason to be
sure, but urged by the Argus with ap-
parent sincerity. Yesterday, however,
after perusing petition headed by Presi-
dent Dewitt of the Union Mutual Life In
surance Company, one of the Headers
to whom the Argus is accustomed to
defer, it discovered that Mayor Baxter S
suggestion was an excellent one, and
urged it's adoption in column editorial.
Here is specimen Of it:
If these propositions are true, and we have'no
doubt they are, then the city by transferring
this stock to the sinking fund enhances its
credit in the open market should it want to be
a borrower, and enhances the value of its as
sets to the extent of three or four hundred
thousand dollars, and so relieves the future
taxpayer of that amount of burden.
The Argus would have saved itself
some embarrassment by consulting Mr..
Dewitt little earlier
