THE BIGGEST STEAMER YET.
An ocenn Greyhound ~ Feet Long for tbs
White Star Line.

Univ StbF EstuC
LONDON. May 15.-The White Star line has
given an order TO Harland 4 Wolf. the ship
builders. for tho construction OF a steamer 0
feet long. which. the firm is confident. will
beat anything afoat. Tho only dif1culty for
such q gigantic vessel will be the shallow
water ut the Mersey Bar. but the White Star
Company IL arranging to have larger tenders
meet the great steamship further out. The
firm is at present hurrying the completion Of
the Gothic. o feet long and OF 5000 tons.
The Gothic lie being built on a new principle
as to the engines and steering gear. and Is
expected to equal the speed Of the Campania
and her sister steamer. as ret unlaunchcd. tho
Lucania. The Gothic will be launched about
the end Of June.
There was q rumor current among shipping
men hereabouts ak months ago that the White
Star line. to retain its prestige on the sen.
would construct a steamship 700 feet lsnG. or
about twenty feet longer than the Great East
ern. with engines OF $4,000 horse power. The
rumor said the new vessel would DO called
the Gigantic and that she would mako twenty
seven knots An hour. or cover the space be-
tween Sandy Hook and Queenstown In about
4 days and 8 hours. The best speed that the
new Cunard flyer. the Campanin. can reason
ably hope to develop will bring her into New
York IL about i've days
The rumor that tho White Star line would
build was confirmed by an article in Transport
an English nautical paper. which said posi-
lively that Harland J. Wolf would build tho
Gigantic.
The local office Of the White Star line pro.
fesses to know nothing about the great ship.
A representative Of Mr.. Ismay said. however.
that he was sure the White Star line would
have to build q vessel swliter. and consequent
ly bigger than the Campanla He said the
line could not afford to risk the loss Of patron
age that would surely follow the introduction
OF faster and moro comfortable ships on rival
limos.
There is no doubt am ng we'll Uniformed
shipping mon that tho White Star line will. as
the despatch above says. build q steam
that will be unapproached in size and speed.
atlesst for several years. Tho speed Of q ship
800 feet long might very well be "a knots an
hour. To traverse a mile she sim ply would
have to steam about six and one-half times
her own length. To accommodate such a YES
sci the White Star line would have to extend
It's piers in the North River about 200 feet.
The cost Of the projected colossus would be
not less than S. .500.00O.

Efforts are making to find Lawyer Francis
Il. Weeks. The District Attorneys office will

him. but the representatives Of three of the
creditors told THE Sun reporter yesterday af-

itors who are endeavoring to find him prefer
to locate him before troubling the District
Attorney to bring him back.
Mr.. Weeks borrowed comparatively small
amounts from large banking institutions, Civ.
ing as security collateral far above the amount
Of the loan. The confidence OF tho banks wns
thus retained. The good name he got served
him well. for many persons put their estates
in his hands as trustee and relied I'm plicitly In
him to do what was honest and for the great
est good.
When the crash came tho banks and trust
companies were more than secured. The in
dividual estates and trust funds suffered. Mr..
Weeks owed tho Atlantic Trust COMPANY
about $4,000. for which the company holds
collateral worth S45. 600. The $4,000 eouity
will BE- put In the hands OF Assignee Wellipe.
The Central Trust Company is creditor for
about $4,000. and is said to hold collateral
worth S25. 900. The Bank OF Commerce and
the Knickerbocker Trust Company are secured
creditors for amounts said to be very small.
Tho assets accruinG from the equities In the

to over $4,000.

NOT WITH GHOULISH aLER,

The editor of the Topeka ADVOCATE an
nounoes with ghoulish glee that he has
found large number of notices Of sheriff
sales in the county papers lately and boasts
that at this rate it will not take long to sell
out the state. This sort Of thing wss not
uncommon during the campaign, but it is
really surprising that even the most hard
ened of calamity howlers should indulge in
such shameless and brutal attacks upon
their state when the necessities of fodder
hurting do not require it.-Emporis Re-

The editor of the ADVOCATE did not

ish glee, but IN sadness; and the an

republicans in humiliation and shame,

enough, it is displeased with the distinctly
western speech made by Governor Stone in
New York the other day. It's proprietors
will find by longer experience that the
money they invest in buying up newspapers
to be used in attacking the representatives
of the people, is worse than wasted. Is is
easy to sec that the articles intended for
this purpose would not appear in any news
paper not owned by money lenders or sub
sidized by them. Instead Of convincing
any one, they simply spend their money to
increase the prejudice against their bust
ness and against the methods they use to
put their own above the public interest.
The Times objects to this explans-
tion of its sudden flop, but offers
nothing better as a substitute. What
would the Times wish the people to
understand is the reason of the
change?
