ports. While he was making mp his mind
what course to pursue, n puff OF smoke
curlcd up over the steamers port bow, and
n round shot whistled uncomfortably close
10 the schooner's mainmast, and plunged
into the water on the lee quarter.
Captain Quick gave the order to haul In
sail and bring the vessel to, and while this
was being done one OF the crew ran out
on the bowsprit. As he stood there, the
gun on the Spanish warship doomed again,
tins time coming so close TO her that the
sailman on the bowsprit felt the wind
caused by its rapid flight.
The Lane soon came TO dead stop, ana
the gunboat drew up under her quarter,
and four Spanish marines, under the COM
mand of lieutenant, came aboard. They
were fully armed, and their leader very
civilly demanded 10 know from what port
the Lane had sailed and whittier she was
bound. Captain Quick gave the required
information and produced his clearance
papers In proof of his assertions. No
further search was made, and the vessel
was permitted TO continue on her course
without further molestation.
Captain Quick says that he could not
get the name OF the gunboat. He adds
that after the first shot was fired at the
Lane, he caused the Stars and Stripes to
be hoisted at the peak, but the only re-
sponsc the Spanish vessel made to this
was second shot. The gunboat did not
hoist her colors until after the first shot
was fred
As soon as Captain Quick reached here

and will await advices from them before
determining upon what course to pursue
in regard to what he considers an outrage.

Facts About the British Cruiser Powerful
Just Launched at Barrow.


LONDON, July 25.-The first GLASS un-
armored cruiser Powerful, sister ship to
the Terrible, was launched at Barrow yes
terday. The new cruiser will be far
larger and OF considerably greater dis
placement than any cruiser hitherto built
by any naval power.
The Terrible Is first class cruiser, built
Of steel and copper sheathed, her displace-
ment being l4,200 tons, and her indicated
horse power $4,000. Her length Is 800
feet, her beam II feet, and her draft OF
water "a feet Her contract requirement.
for speed Is % knots, and she has a coal
capacity in her bunlSers for 5000 tons, and
she is deck protected throughout.
Her armament Is as follows: Two o 2-10-
inch guns, 12 6-inch quick.fire guns, IL l2-
FOUNDER quick.tire guns, 10 3-pounder
quick-flre guns and machine guns. Tho
Terrible trusts for protection to her en-
gines and vital parts to a highly curved
steel deck, four inches thick mt the thick
est part, tapering to three inches at tho
ends.
by the early spring Of 1893 both the
Powerful and Terrible will DC ready for
commission, and the drain which they
will make on the resources of the adj
miralty in personnel may be gauged from
the fact that each vessel will require u
crew Of no fewer than S9i officers and
men, or over 100 moro men than are needed
