His Report Oh the Condition of the His
toiical Society Building.

The following correspondence, which Is
self explanatory, is published at the re-
quest Of Mrs. Russell Robinson, president
OF the Society of Colonial Danes. whose
entertainment that was to have been
given Saturday had TO be abandoned, as
explained in Sundays Dispatch:
RICHMOND. VA, Jan. II. 1895.
My Dear Mrs. Lyons.-As requested by
you. / take pleasure in sending you the
following statement concerning our ex-
aminations and reports OF the Historical
Society building.
Your letter Of January lst requested me
TO examine the building. and is as follows;
My Dear Colonel Cutshaw,-We ladies'
are unhappy at the suggestion that the
weight OF books on the third hoor OF HIS
toricai Society building will cause the floor
10 fall down in our rooms. which are just
below, and which have been given up TO
the three patriotic societies OF ladies-the
Colonial Danes. the Daughters OF the
American Revolution. and the Association
for the Preservation OF Virginia Antiqui-
ties.
"wil you not be SO very kind as to
come to the rooms and let us have your
opinion. We would all consider 1t a great
Kindness. Your very cordially.
(Signed) "EIIZABETH IL. LYONS.
"Mrs. JAMES LYONS"
To which ] replied the next day that
we would rave 1t examined as soon as
we could spare the time for II. We had
the building examined on January 9Th,
and sent the following report:
RICHMOND, VA, Jan. 8. 1895.
Dear Mrs. Lyons.-Mr. Bates. OF our
Office, has examined and measured the
floors and cases in the rooms OF the HIS
toricai Society building, and we find. In
some instances, too much load on parts OF
floors. This building was designed for a
dwelling, with allowances for ordinary
weights Of furniture and the few persons
usually gathered In such dwellings. so
you will readily understand why the
floors will not bear the weights OF heavy
bookcases besides those Of many persons
gathered In the rooms.
I would advise you TO have some care
ful builder TO 90 over the building and

TO BID AGAIN.
Iowa Iron Works to Attempt More Torpe-
do Boats.

Iowa Iron Works to Attempt More Torpe-
Plans and specifications for the
three torpedo boats ordered under
the act of congress. approved July
%, 1894. have been issued. and it is
announced that the Iowa Iron works
of Dubuque is figuring on the plans,
and will not only make q bid, but
will make a determined effort to Sc
cure the contracts. The new boats
are to he Nos. ;. 4 aud 5. The Cush-
ing is No. l and the Ericsson No. 3.
The new boats, on the general plan,
are much similar to the Ericsson,
but differ from it in many important
details. They were designed by the
naval engineering department, the
same that designed the Ericsson. and
it is supposed that in them all the
theoretical errors in the Ericsson are
corrected, or are supposed to be.
Boat Dimensions.
The new boats will be, in the first
place, 10 feet longer and 6 inches
broader. and will have displacement
of 1873 tons, Is tons more than the
Ericsson. They will be required to
exhibit and maintain a speed of 24l
knots. and there will he no bonus for
greater speed. In the Ericsson "a
knots were required. The new boats.
if they fail to develop the required
speed, but develop and maintain not
less than % knots, will be accepted
at q reduced price, the reduction be-
ing at the rate of s1O.O per knot.
The government has appropriated
$3.50, 900 for these boats, including
the armament, which will amount to
about $40, 900 on each. The contract
price of the Ericsson, without arma-
ment, was $113,50O.
