cruisers over heavily protected but mod
crate speed battle-ships. This is natural,
in view of the fact that for many years
the officers in this branch of the service
have devoted their ingenuity to the de-
velopment of the passively resistant
quality of the ships, holding that the
best was the design which should carry
the heaviest armor. Thus they created
the battle-ship, and now they stand pre-
pared to defend her.
One of the most distinguished ordnance
officers, in his record of work accom-
pliSbed, man who had much to do with
designing the guns and armorS of our
| modern ships. speaking upon the subject
of the Yalu fight to-day, was inclined to
be skeptical as to the defeat OF the Chi
nese battleships. Said he: 1--WE are still
bin the dark as TO the details of the battle,
but l will venture the assertion that not
one of the Chinese battle-ships was ser-
ously Injured, and that their loss was
confined to cruisers Or only partially
/ protected vessels. And even the best of
! the Chinese battlesnips is not a first-class
vessel. The Chen 4uen is a second-rate
ship, about like the Maine or Texas. But
as it was, there was only one reason,
though that is very good one, why the
battleship did not destroy all of the jap
anese fleet, and that reason is the i'm
mense superiority of the Japanese per-
SOhhSl. 1AS OdpdlCSO themselves IullN
understand the value of DattleShipS, and
have made efforts to purchase some.
Lately they have been trying to buy the

built in Europe for Chile.
"a good deal of nonsense has been said
and written about the value of high-speed
unarmored cruisers, mainly by private
| builders, who are after the big premiums
paid for speed. 1t would rank excessive
| speed about the tenth in the list of valu-
able qualities for warship. About the
| only advantage it offers is the opportunity
to decline an engagement. 1t will not
! help her even to run away if she is once
in action. The difference between the
fifteen knots OF battle-ship and the
! twenty knots of cruiser is not enough
to save the distance. Then, after once

cussion shells now that we can explode
and tear her TO pieces. But these shells
will not penetrate the armored side of
battle-ship. The only projectiie that can
do that is the armor-piercer, and that,
while partly hollow, is never exploded
with explosives. An expert commander
on one of the battle-ships can meet at
once and destroy half a dozen cruisers
and come out of the fight without serious
injury, else all naval opinion is at fault,
and the naval power that seeks to get
along without battle-shlps will certainly
rue its lack of forethought in time of

The Supervising Architect Says He

WASHINGTON, Sept. %. - Ex-Super-
vising Architect O'Rourke has given out
the correspondence with Secretary Carl
isle relating to his enforced resignation.
In his first letter Mr.. O'Rourke alleges
the existence of a conspiracy against
him, exposure of which would cause a
grave public scandal, and he therefore
asks a postponement Of his resignation
until he can be heard.
In his reply Secretary Carlisle dis
claims any specific accusations against
O'Rourke's personal or official integrity,
but alleged want of system and harmony
in the administration of his Office.
Mr.. o. Rourke thereupon forwarded his
resignation, expressing regret that he
was not even given the privilege of a
personal conference with the Secretary,
and adding: Il have felt for some time
that l could not continue to hold the Of
flee without surrender of honor and self
respect, because of the many obstruc-
tions persistently placed in the way of
an orderly and reputable administration
of this important office, mainly by two
of my SubordinateS, absolutely without
technical or artistic knowledge, who, /
regret to say, claim to have the special
confidence and support of the depart
ment. 1t seems to Inc that if | have been
so unfortunate as not to satisfy those
gentlemen in the settlement OF grav Q
questions of the Administration, to re-
quest my resignation on that account is
an unique reversal of the action ordi-
narily taken when such state OF affairs

ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH..
Enlargement Of the Functions of the
Apostolic Delegate Soon TO Occur.

Enlargement of the Functions of the
Apostolic Delegate Soon TO Occur.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-Bishop Kean,
Dean of the Catholic University of Amer
lea, has given out the information as a
result of his recent audiences with the
Pope, that the latter would, in the ency-
clical letter soon to be issued, set forth
for the first time important enlargements
in the functions, authority and dignity OF
the apostolic delegation in the United
Statessover which Monsignor Satolli pre-
sides.
Bishop Kean says he is impressed with
the desirability of establishing the Papal
Legation here on a basis commensurate
with the character of this country. The
details of how this will be accomplished
the Bishop does not state, as they will be
known in the encyclical. 1t is probable,
however, that Mgr. Satolli's jurisdiction
will be enlarged, and his authority will
be supreme in this country, and will not
be subject to appeals to Rome.
The Bishop said he did not mean the
establishment of an American Pope, as
sometimes suggested. The supreme au-
thority of the American delegate would
extend to cases of dispute. and would be
in the nature of a supreme court, subject
however, TO the papal power on all ques-
tions outside of those of the church OF
jurisdiction and procedure.
| Bishop kean regards Mgr. Satolli as a
permanency in his position. ''0f course,
it is beyond question that Mgr. Satolli
will be Cardinal" he added-whether,
however, it will be next month or not
is not SO certain.
Bishop Kean said that he read with
regret an article by Bishop Spalding in
the current North american ReUteiO, as
cribing the growth Of the American Pro-
teetive Association movement to the dis
content over the appointment of Mgr.
Satolli as Ablegate to this country. The
Bishop said he had informed the Pope, in

Over the Ordered Removal of Troops
From san Carlos.
Tucson, Sept. 2l.-The action of the
War Department in ordering the removal
of troops from San Carlos reservation is
not we'll received by the people of Ari-
zona. Mass meetings for the past week
have been held at Tombstone, Tucson
and other places, for the purpose of pro-
testing against the action of the Govern
ment. AT all of these meetings resolu-
tions were adopted and telegraphed to the
Secretary OF War protesting against the
removal OF the San Carlos troops, and
pointing to the results sure to follow the
carrying out of the order. There are
about 5000 Indians on the reservation
and Fort Apache and Fort Grant, the
nearest military posts, are each more
than fifty miles distant from San Carlos.
The Indian outbreaks in Arizona have
invariably been the result of drunken
quarrels among themselves, and the
presence Of troops at San Carlos is abso-
lutely necessary to perform police duty
In the breaking up OF Indian liquor
camps, in order to remove the primary
cause of the outbreaks. These Indians
have no means of making living except
by cutting hay and wood with which to
supply the troops and raising barley and
corn for the same purpose. 1t is obvious
that in the absence OF such market they
will soon cease TO farm, except to raise
sufficient corn with which to make
liquor, and will become miserably poor
and be driven desperate by starvation
and cold, Notwithstanding the few ra-
tions issued. All that has kept the red
skins on the San Carlos from going out
on the warpath on several occasions since
the removal of the murderous Geronimo
and his followers, and causing another
reign of terror among the settlers, has
been the presence of troops, and for this
reason it is that Arizonans view with ap-
prehension and alarm their proposed re-

SAN Francisco, Sept. %. = Federal
Judge Morrow decided the Ezeta ex ira
ditlon cases. He decides that Ezeta, Bo-
lanos and Bustamente cannot be extra
dlted, as their offenses were purely
political. He holds that Colonel Juan
Clentuegos can be eXtradited on the
charge OF numbering an Amaya citizen.
Judge Morrow's decision was an elab-
crate one and occupied over an hour and
half in reading. The refugees were all
IN Court dressed in new clothes. The
fortunate ones, EZeta particularly, were
oyerjoyed when they learned they were
not to be sent back to San Salvador, which
meant sure death for them. They
crowded around Cienfuegos, their unfor
tunate countryman, and extended him
what sympathy they could.
General Antonio EZeta and his at
torneys left this morning surreptitiously
for Mexico. They had bought their
tickets secretly last night. So careiul
were they in their effort to deceive tho
public, that even after they had secured
their transportation they gave out that
they would not leave for several days.
General Ezeta was to stay in San Fran
cisco for a week, and the attorneys said
they would not depart until next Wednes-
day, when they would go directly to
New York. But this morning the party
quietly slipped into carriages and de-
parted from the hotel. They went over
TO the Oakland pier in advance of regular
passengers, and once there they secluded
themselves in their sleeping car.
10 begin with, General Colocho left
here on the 10th instant, and went
straight to Mexico City. He at once ap-
parently laid the whole matter before
certain influential people there, and they
formulated these plans. being all the time
in close correspondence by telegraph with
eX-President Ezeta. The kilograms from
Mexico since then have been coming
thick and fast, and there is probably some
foundation for the current rumors that
General EZeta is trying to form some
movement to overthrow the present
Government of Salvador.

So far there are three candidates named

Lockwood of Buffalo was mentioned,
but it is said by those who know to-day
that he is practically out of the race. and
that Sheehan's support, which may domi-

Every effort will be made, however, to
induce Mr.. Cook to accept the second
place upon the ticket, in case either
Judge Gaylor or Senator Hill is nom

AS to Mr.. Hill as a candidate, Lieuten-

Albany for Saratoga. He not only said
he would not be candidate, but insisted
that l should not broach the subject to

LONDON, Sept. pa Shanghai dis

refused the request of Prince Ching,
President of Tsung Ii Yamen, that he be
given command in Corea. Prince Ching
is strong advocate OF conceding Japan
ese demands. 1t is supposed he only
wanted to investigate personally the con-
dition Of the Chinese forces N the field.
The dispatch adds that the British gum
boat Pigmy has been dispatched to New
Chang, at the head of the Gulf of Liau
Tong, in anticipation of a possible Japan

The Dowager Empress of China has
dnoated another 5000, 600 taels from her
birthday fund toward meeting the ex-
penses of the war.
Eight foreign volunteers did splendid
service during the battle, and their con-
duct did much to instill spirit into the
Chinese. Engineers Albrecht and Hoh-
man were the only two of the eight for
eignerS who were not wounded. The
wounded are doing well and viii soon be
fit for duty.
1t is reported that the Russian fleet has

TO immediate action. The transports of
the volunteer fleets as they arrive are de-
tanned at Vladivostock.
CHINA DARE NOT ABANDON CoREA.
BERLIN, Sept pa member of the
Chinese Legation in an interview said
China dare not abandon Corea, even if
the war should last six years. Besides,
he added, the Coreans are still hostile to
the Japanese, as is proven by their re-
fusal to concede the Japanese demand
that they cut off their long hair as a sign
of submission. The Japanese, he further
said, have done everything to wound the
feelings of the Chinese. Directly the
Chinese Minister had left Toxic at the
outbreak of the active hostilities, the
Japanese destroyed the Chinese Legation
at Buddhist Temple, besides setting II re
to and destroying Chinese club houses
and residences and numbering helpless
Chinese in the streets. Count Aoki
scouts the idea of any cessation of hos
tilities. In an interview he fatty de-
MED that the Japanese had burned
Chinese property, destroyed IN Toxic.
On the other hand, he said the Chinese
had insulted the Japanese Minister at
lien Tsin, and had massacred seventy
harmless Japanese convicts who were
working in the camphor pits in Corea.
