Cup Defenders Trial ON Frfday-Whn

eral Sporting News.

The next ten days will be interesting
ones in yachting circles. First is the Nava-
hoe and Britannia match for the Victoria
gold cup. which commences tomorrow at
Ryde. From all parts Of the British Isles
people are focking to Southsea, Ryde and
other coigns Of vantage from which a
good view OF the race can be seen. The
hotels are full. SO are the lodging houses.
and many have to put up with mattresses
on the floor. Even the bathing machines
on the beach have been utilized as sleeping
apartments. The Navahoe's people seem
very confident that her alterations will put
her on an equality with the Prince Of Wales
cutter. The only thing done to the Britain
MIA seems to have been the replacing Of the
hollow main boom by a solid one. This
may be an improvement in very strong
winds. Still there u the extra weight to
carry. which may alter the trim Of the
boat for the worse.
Next in order will be the cup defend
ers' trials, which commence on the It'll in

possibility that Pilgrim will be an absentee.
Her owners, however. say they intend to
have her ready In time. The odds are
slightly in favor Of vigilant with Jubilee

A NEW PENSION ORDER.

Commissioners Lochren Issues a Cir
cular Dealing With the Matter OF
Rates.
An order relative to pensions was issued
by Pension Commissioner Lochrea yester-
day afternoon saying: 1.-THE circular Of
June II. 1893, in respect to rating cases IN
der the act Of June q, 1890, is withdrawn.
Hereafter In affixing rates under this act
the medical referee or the medical officer
in the board of revision shall weigh each
disability and determine the degree that
each disability or the combined disabilities
disable the claimant from earning support
by manual labor and a rate corresponding
to this degree shall be allowed. In cases in
which the pensioner has reached the age Of
Is his rate shall not be DISTURBED II he Ii
receiving the maximum, and II he Is not
q pensioner he shall receive the maximum
for senilfty alone II there are no special
pensionable disabilities shown
As to the reason of this order Commits
sioner Of Pensions Lochren said:
1t Is impossible to make schedule rat
fnGs In all cases. A soldier may have half
a dozen disabilities. no one Of which might
be reasonable, but taken all together would
render him unable to perform manual labor
ana would therefore render him disabled
In pensionable degree"

PAYING PENALTIES
For Not Getting Out Vessels Accsrd.
ing TO the Contracts.

The statement prepared at the Navy De-
partment In regard TO the construction OF
the new navy makes an interesting exhibit
OF penalties exacted from ship builders for
noncompliance with the terms of their
contracts. The delinquency was principally
In the matter of time of completion. IL APP
pears that several contractors on the At
lantic and Pacific coasts have had 10 for
felt to the government in all about s2D0.0o
on account of failures to comply with GER
tain terms of their contracts. The penal
ties were generally for delays in the de-
livery OF vessels to the government In
several p-ses the contractors had 70 forfeit
part Of lie contra, price Of a ship, owing
to failure to meet the requirements re-
lating TO speed.
The Union iron works OF San Francisco
received So. 3s4 less than the contract price
for the Charleston. and s. 200 less than the
stipulated cost Of the San Francisco. The
Columbia iron works of Baltimore lost fss,-
$50 on the Petrol In both cases the penal
ties were exacted for q failure TO complete
the ships within the time agreed upon. The
Petrefs contractors also lost $50 on speed
requirements. Owing to delays In the de-
livery of the Nesuvius, the Cramps forfeit
ed sSs.7o. or about one-ninth OF the CON-
tract price of the vessel. For the same
reason the Cramps also lost $4,000 on the
Philadelphia, N.S25 on the Baltimore. Sib75
on the yorktown, and $3.50 on the Newark.
n. +. Palmer & Co, the contractors of the
gunboats Concord and Pennington, built at
cost OF $4,000 each. refunded 20 the eev-
eminent for time penalties IS 900. The Bath
Iron works lost over twelve months PEN
alties on the Machias, and they are now
paying for delays in the delivery OF the
Castine ana katahdin. The Iowa iron
works are under penalties at the rate OF
SlOO a day, for failure to complete the tor
pedo boat Ericsson within the prescrfled
time limit The Monterey cost its build-
ers, the Union iron works. ss2.s23, owing TO
the Inability OF the engines to sustain the
required indicated horse power. In an ar
ticle on this subject. the Army and Navy
Register says: In cases where the de-
partment believes a claim fer a remission
of penalties is just. a recommendation in
behalf OF the contractors is made 70 Con-
gress. There IL a strong feeling I'm and out
of Congress for the failing contractors es-
pecially when time alone Ia the question
between them and the government Much
OF the work begun by American contractors
was In the nature OF an experiment They
have. as a rule. done good work, snd their
failures have not come by reason Of ne
eject. Congress ought to consider this fact
In dealing with them. and It doubles
will"
