THE MONTEREY'S ARMOR.
How it Was Plugged and Otherwise
Doctored.

How it Was Plugged and Otherwise
Doctored.
Chicago, May IA Tribune special
from Pittsburg, Pa, says: Burgess
McLuckie, speaking of the report of
defective plates on the coast defense
ship Monterey, says: zone of the Mon
terey's belt-line plates weighs % tons.
1t is fastened on the ship about the
water line and it is slightly curved.
This plate is 10 inches thick, and its
number at the Carnegie mills at
Homestead was IS. One of the blow
holes in this plate was so large and
apparently so deep that a consultation
of several superintendent and fore
men was called to discuss the posi-
bility of so doctoring as to get it in
past the government inspector It was
decided to make the attempt The
plate was worth nearly $4,000 to the
company if they could secure its ac-
ceptance. On a Sunday night, the
superintendent and several trustworthy
men went to work at it. A hole three
inches in diameter and eight inches
deep was drilled at the mouth of the
blowhole. Then a three-inch bolt was
made and hammered into the plate
The superintendent welded the sledge.
On the opposite end of the same plate
was another great bloWnoIe. It was
believed that the spongy, porous con-
dition existed from end to end of the
plate, distance of ten or twelve feet.
This second big blowhole was plugged
like the first. A third blowhole, near
one corner of the plate, was filed UP
with molten lead. All the surfaces
were nicely planed off and the inspec-
tor sent the plate on its way to the
Monterey.
mo. 20 is another rotten belt-line
armor plate on the Monterey Nearly
a dozen plugs were driven into it to
conceal the presence of blowhoIes. The
plate was almost honeycombed. to
judge from some surface indications.
1T looked all right after it had been
doctored, and the inspector passed it.
This was a 13-inch plate, too. Still
another 13-inch plate on the Monterey
is rotten, and was fraudulently foisted
on the government. Three big blow
holes were plugged on a Sunday night.

number of this plate was Is. One of
the blowholes in one plate was so big
that when the first plug was driven in
a young workman wrote his name and
address on the card and poked it in.

this plate with location of all the

A dispatch to the Tribune from
Washington says it is part of the plan
of the investigating board to have a
test made of the plates on McLuckie's

THE GRAVITY SEWER.
PLAN FOR COMPLETING IT MAY BE
ADOPTED TONIGHT.
of the Recommendation
Made by the Committee Will Pre-
vent Any Further Delay.

OF all the public improvements con-
templated, unquestionably the most i'm
portant is the completion of the grav-
ity, not only because it is a necessity
to the city's welfare, and the only solu-
ton of a graver problem, but because
it would be folly for all the money in
vested in the work thus far to be
fruitless. That this important under
taking will be pushed ahead as soon as
the bonds are sold, there is little doubt,
and the whole matter may be adjusted
at the meeting of the council tonight.
AS has been previously stated in The
Herald, the committee on municipal
laws has recommended that the con-
tractors be allowed 5000, on condition
that they proceed with the contract
and complete the job The contrac-
tors have agreed to this proposition,
and for the good Of the city, it should
be closed up without delay, for the
city cannot possibly get out of the
difficulty TO such advantage to itself in
any other way. The contractors may
claim that they are entitled to better
terms, and possibly they are, but it
should be remembered that while they
have conceded a great deal, the city
has also conceded something. The bal
ance of the work will probably be COM
pleted without any considerable profit
to them, but they ought to have some
interest in seeing the job which they
started successfully finished. One
thing is certain, neither the city nor
any other contractors can complete ii
as cheaply -asthey can, nor do the work
as well for the same outlay, because
they are equipped with the necessary
plant, water system and forms. Chair
man Doremus estimating that this
would save the city more than $40, 600
There is an impression abroad, thai
the contractors are not at all eager tc
have the proposition ratified, but they
have agreed to it, and it is to be
hoped that 1t will be closed up while
the city has shade the better of it.

INsURING THE PRINCE.

A great deal has been said from time to
time about the large amounts of insur-
ance which certain notables carry, par
ticularly the members Of the English no
bility. Many of these stories are pure
fiction. At any rate, the English COM
panies will not reveal the amounts car
ried by their patrons, and so these stories
can have no real foundation in fact.
In England large lines of life insurance
figure prominently in the settlement Of
estates, marriage portions, and similar
contracts and it is said that in this way
the English companies do the larger part
of their business.
The Prince of Wales was very heavily
insured at one time, his motive in secur-
ing the insurance being, 1T was stated, to
protect the money lender Farquhar, with
whom he was implicated before the Duke
of Fife cleared UP the princes obligations
by marrying into the royal family. Just
how much insurance the prince carried at
that time is not known. but it is certain
that he got as much as the British COM
panies would give him and then applied
TO one of the companies in this city. Be
ing a person of high estate, he refused,
however, to permit the companys medi-
cal examiner to inspect his royal person,
proffering instead a certificate from his
personal physician, which certificate the
company refused to accept and so the
insurance was never enected.-New York
Times.

THERE WAS A GUN PLAY
A NEBRASKA ATTORNEY WAS AR
RESTED HERE YESTERDAY.
He Is Wanted on Twenty Charges of
Obtaining Money Under False Pre-
tenses-An officer Coming.

Frank N. Selby, young lawyer who ar
rived here a short time ago, was arrested
yesterday afternoon by Deputy Sheriffs
Welsh and Montgomery after a short
chase and a gun play.
Sheriff ]. L. Jackson of Beaver City,
Nebraska, recently wrote to Sheriff Nc
Queen, stating that Selby was wanted
there on twenty charges of obtaining
money under false pretenses, and inclos-
ing a photograph of the man. The Ne
braska official said that Selby had been
located here through the fact that Judge
Cochrane, of this city, had telegraphed
the fugitive's wife that her hubby was
in Salt Lake and was well, and that he
was looking after some business for him.
With this clue and the photograph, the
local officers located their man in build
ing near the Knutsford, and armed with
a fugitive warrant, they started after
him yesterday. Selby evidently antici-
pated something of the kind and when
the officers approached, he jumped into a
hack and drove off. The deputy sherifs
overhauled him on Main street, and polk
ing a gun through each window of the
vehicle, ordered him to surrender. Selby
saw that the jig was up and submitted.
He was taken to the county Jail and
Sheriff Jackson was notified of the ar
rest. He will send an officer, armed with
reQuisition papers at once.

FULTON AN a. 2. A. MAN.
Baptist Minister Makes an Attack
on Governor Northern.

Dallas, Tex, May 1.-THE Baptists'
convention spent the entire morning
reading the report on foreign missions,
volurninous document, the end of
which was not reached until the middle
of the afternoon. 1t contains a mass
of figures showing the financial trans
actions of the body for the year. The
condition Of this auxiliary of the
church is said to be first-class.
Much ill-feeling has been aroused be
tween what is known as the Northern
and Cranfell wings of the convention,
because Of the sermons preached last
night by DIR. Fulton, of New York,
and Rev. Cranfell, of Texas. both di-
rectly assailing Governor Northern for
appointing Patrick Walsh to the United
States Senate.
Fulton announced that he was an
A. P. A. man, in full sympathy with
its anti-Catholic attitude. Cranfell de-
clared he would not vote for a Catholic
for any Office under any consideration,
and had no confidence in man who
would vote for one or aid one in get
ting office. This is considered as being
so plainly intended for Governor North
ern, that it is felt that he will reply
to it today or tonight.

CHICAGo GENERAL MARKET.

Chicago, May 14-Wheat was very dull
today and was weak early. put later
firmed up and closed with a gain of 14e.
Corn closed sc. higher, oats &c. higher,
and provisions, after q lifeless session,
closed slightly higher throughout the list.
Wheat started weak and weary. The
early weakness was attributed to the
weather, absence of advices from abroad
and the uncertainty attached to the visible
initial transactions 1t showed a. loss of
14G%c., and under fair offerings sold down
a fraction more, rallied sc. later on,
changed some and closed as stated. There
was much less for sale after The opening
and prices gradually recovered, the Wis
ible showing d fair sized decrease, with
!, 900 bushels, which was larger than
expected and tended TO strengthen the
market 1t was supposed that one of the
leading sellers early was covered later
and was a stimulating factor. Closing
prices were but Il from the op.
There was nothing doing in corn, the
price keeping within 2sG12c. range. The
general trade early was weak and prices
ruled lower. but rallied later on with
wheat and closed fairly firm and with a
trifle gain.
In oats, there was a good trade and
hrmer feeling existed for May and
June The near futures were irregular
PC. in sympathy with wheat.
With a decline in values for live hogs,
the provision market opened slightly
lower The market was dead during the
balance Of the session. 1t was estimated
that very little, If any, more than a. score
of transactions were recorded for the
day. Compared with Saturday night
July pork, lard and ribs were each ~
higher
The estimated receipts for tomorrow are:
Wheat, 40 cars; corn, 30 cars; oats, 90
cars; hogs, 5000 head.
