ABOUT THE NAVY.
Designs Of the six Composite Gunboats
AuthoEtzed by Congress.


Washington, April 23.-The board
of naval bureau chiefs has been for the
past six weeks considering the designs
of the six composite gunboats author
lied to be constructed by the last con-
gress 1t was the intention to make
these new vessels midway i'll size be-
tween the Petrol type and the Machias
class, SO that they were fixed at 973.
tons displacement One purpose in
keeping them just below the l 200 tons
displacement was TO permit of the as
signment to their command of energet-
ic officers who might develop their ex
ecutive faculties before they could
aspire to command larger gunboats and
cruisers. Since this size has been
agreed upon, however, there have been
shown evidences of a disposition to re-
open the subject and build two large
and two small boats, the latter es-
pecially designed for use III the upper
Chinese rivers, but it is improbable
that this scheme will prevail, for the
necessity for American gunboats in
such waters is not apparent i'll time of
peace, and they could not pass forts in
time of war.
But the feature of the plans which
has developed the widest difference of
opinion is that of sail power, for the
designs prepared by the construction
company bureau, as basis for the
boards action, include full outfit of
sails. The boats have been given a
spread of canvas Of II 200 square feet.
1t would be desirable to give them
more, but this could not be done with
out infringing upon the space otherwise
needed. This amount of canvas prac-
tically makes the gunboats full powered
sailing craft, and i'll this they will be
much different from any of the vessels
of the new navy. 1t is thought that
since the general adoption of twin
screws the probabilities of accident
have been so reduced as to justify sails
being ignored altogether. Therefore,
in the case of the new boats, Chief
Constructor Tichborne has taken the
ground that sail is useless and that the
boats should either abandon sail alto
gether or be supplied with sail power
enough to enable them to make long
cruises and without using coal, unless
an emergency arose that required them
to make good speed.
The construction bureau has adopted
the latter views in consideration of the
peculiar service for which these vessels
are destined on foreign stations, where
they may be safely placed instead of
larger ships, in the interest of economy,
and will thus often be in places where
coal is difficult to obtain. For service
in Samoa, in the Gulf of Mexico and
i'll the Caribbean sea, and on the extern
sive Behring sea patrol, where speed is
not an object at all times, the chief
constructor holds that sail power will
make the vessels of great value, and
that they will be the most economical
cruisers of the navy.

MOODY PRAYED FOR RAIN.
1t Game, and With 1t the Roof, Man
Cling Many Persons.


Fort Worth, Tex, April 23.-All of
Texas has needed rain, SO the great
evangelist Dwight Moody, called upon
his audience of 5000 Christians to pray
for the hoodgates to be opened. This
was at P. M. today. Tonight when
the tabernacle was crowded by 10000
people, Mr.. Moody announced that word
had come from several points that rain
had fallen. A few minutes later the
storm burst ON Fort Worth and torrents
Of rain fell. Then Mr.. Moody gave
thanks to God and called upon the con-
gregation to join in singing Corona
ton" and "All Hail the Power of
Jesus Name, Let Angels Prostrate
Fall" The latter song had surged
forth from 10, 900 voices when a crack
ing noise was heard, and then the roof
sank and the rafters gave way and the
heavy timbers and boards, covered
with tar and gravel, came down ON q
portion of the congregation. There
was panic. Scores upon scores OF
women tainted, some men lost their
heads and piled pell-mel over them.

lifted both hands to heaven, moving his

and calmness stopped the panic and
men began to rescue those in danger.
A drenching rain was falling, but they
worked hard and the wounded were
soon taken out and carried to their home
or to houses near by. The casualties
were:

TERMS MADE PUBLIC.
Additional Details OF the Chino-Japan-
csc Treaty.

Yokohama, April %. - Nichinichi
today publishes the terms of the treaty
of peace concluded between China and
Japan. The new details furnished are
that the indemnity is payable in seven
years, with interest at per cent, but
if the amount of 200, 900, 900 taels is
paid Japan in three years no interest
will be demanded. Japan is also en-
titled under the treaty to the most-fay-
ordination treatment, and has the right
to navigate the Chung Liang, Foo Chow
and Hong Kong rivers, to import goods
of certain grades and machinery free of
duty and establish factories. A new
treaty of commerce is to be concluded,
based on existing treaties with foreign
powers. China is to comply with the
customs laws of Japan, and part of the
of occupation of Wei Hal Wei,
Port Arthur, ETC., by japanese troops,
are to be borne by China.
China engages not to punish returned
prisoners, nor to inflict punishment
upon Chinese who may have aided the
Japanese army and navy. China also
binds herself to return japanese prison
ers Internationally. The exchange of
notifications of the treaty will take
place at Che Foo not later than May s.
One stipulation of the treaty between
China and Japan is that Chinese who
have been captured by the japanese,
and others who had sold supplies to the
Japanese troops should not be beheaded
according to the Chinese custom. Until
the beginning of the war between
China and Japan each country had con-
sular jurisdiction over its subjects in
the other country. 1t now appears that
Japan will now no longer grant this
privilege to China, ON the ground that
China is barbarous country, and for
eigners residing there must be protected
by their own country.

Russia May Ask Chinese Territory.

London, April 22.-The Standard S
correspondent in st. Petersburg says:
1.-The newspapers continue to express
discomfort with China's cessiOn of
mainland territory to Japan, but only
a feeble idea is given by them of the
extremely difficult position in which
Russia is placed. 1t is fact that the
gravest apprehension exists in political
circles, and it is evident that Russia
cannot submit to the ratification of the
treaty under present conditions; but it
is very difficult to see what path will
remain open should Japan and China
persist in the ratification. There are
excellent grounds for believing that
Russia will ask for the cession of other
Chinese mainland territory. If this be
refused, consideration for her prestige
will compel her to take decisive and
prompt action"
The Standards correspondent in Cd
essa says:
SIN the last few weeks 10000 SOL
diers have sailed from this port for
Vlad1vostock, and 5000 of them will
embark soon. The cruisers are held
ready to transport them, despite the
conclusion of peace in the East.
