SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 12.-Irving
works, which turned out the Olympia
and several other crack American
cruisers, will soon go to Japan to bid
on the contracts for building men of
war for the japanese navy. The re-
cent achievements of American war
ships is said to have impressed the
Japanese strongly and now that Brit
ish firms are able to underbid Ameri-
can companies only 10 per cent in
stead of 50 per cent as formerly Mr.
Scott believes he will be able to secure
number of contracts. The feeling of
the Japanese government is shown in
the following statement recently made
TO an American by the secretary-Sen-
eral of the imperial cabinet:
You are building the swiftest and
most formidable cruisers known Be
sides that, you have invented armor
plate for your battleships which Russia
has chosen for hers in a competition of
all the makes of armor plate in Europe.
Our government, seeing these achieve
ments, and recalling the fact that
America has twice revolutionized the
navies of the world by her infinite
capacity for invention, first in creating
the ironclad and then the turret, is
StoHSiy ulSpoSSu 10 uFdW upon Amerl-
can Shlpyards for a part of its new
navy. Why shouldn't we depend upon
you for the best? Besides doing the
things / have just spoken Of the United
States has built the finest clipper ships
and the fastest yachts. Your country
leads, whenever she wants to- in naval
construction both of peace and war.
Besides, America buys so much of us

Mr. Scott will carry letters, it is said,

navy, but from the Japanese minister
at Washington.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Aug. 12.-Secre-
tary of State Hinrichsen, chairman of
the Democratic state central COM
mittee, speaking of the national con-
ference of silver men to be held in
Washington, August IA, said today
that Illinois would be represented by a
large delegation of the leading and in
5iuential Democrats. The free silver
feeling is stronger in this state, he
said, than at the time of the free sill
Yer convention. The gold Democrats,
he says, could not carry d single coun-
ty in the state. A free silver Demo-
crat. according to his notion, will be
nominated in the Eighteenth district
TO succeed Congressman Remain. Mr.
Hinrichsen refers rather cauStically to
Mr.. Gable. of the Rock Island and
United States Senator Palmer He
said: In regard to the attempt of Mr..
Gable to organize the gold forces in
the state, l am informed Mr. Gable be-
longs TO that class of men who in IL
1inois are big in Washington, and in
Washington are big in Illinois. | am
satisfied that he and Senator Palmer
and other administration men from
