To Abandon Dynamite Guns.

WASHINGTON, April 4.-The dynamite cruiser Vesuvius is likely to go out of commission as @ ship throwing dynamite projectiles, as result of the action of the house committes on naval affairs yester- day. A provision was inserted in the naval appropriation bill authorizing the secre- tary of the navy in his discretion to alter the Vesuvius into torpedo boat. These boats are of regulation pattern, and the change would retire the dynamite guns, and so change the ship ss tosmske her eff. fective against unarmored vessels. The action of the committee Is in accordance with recommendation by Secretary Her bsrt, who showed in his annual report that after the dynamite guns had been In the possession of the government three and a half years they had not fully met expeota tions, and that future experiments might make 1t desirable to take out the guns and fit the Teeuvius as 8 torpedo boat. The committee further agreed on three new torpedo boats to take the place of the sec- ond dynamite cruiser not yet begun.
