A City in Japan Totally AnnihiIated
by Visitation from the Fire
Fieud.
San Francisco special: The city of
Kobe, Japan, was recently wiped out by a
disastrous confiagration, and on August
26, floods, storms and earthquakes caused
the loss of $500 lives and the destruction
of millions of dollars worth of property in
Northern Japan. The steamer Doryea,
from the Orient brought news of series
of catastrophes that has befallen the Mi
kado's realm, that are unprecedented in
its history. In Gifu Prefecture 1900
homes were blown down and along the
llaji Gawa, 400 persons lost their lives.
The severeSt storm occurred on August
30. Along the lsatsugawa eighty-four
lives were lost. The Minatogawa
Overflowed its banks at midnight
of the 10Th, instant, and the waters
inundated streets and fields, sweeping
away 300 houses and drowning 2OO.persons
at Kobe. To make the fate at Kobe
worse, fire broke ont late in the evening,
and famed by high wind, spread over
the entire city. One thousand nine hun
dred blocks, including $3.50 houses and
twelve godows, were totally destroyed,
and ten houses, two police boxes, one fire
brigade station, four temples and one the
ater. The Lurnt area comprises ten
streets.

HOW UNCLE SAM is RLED.
Has Paid $3,OOO,OOo in Ten Years for
Something lie Did Not Get.


The Naval Department has at least
opened its eyes to an evil of long standing
and reform may be looked for. 1t is in
tie matter of paying premiums TO new
warships for increased speed Within
the past ten years about S3.OOO,O0O has
been paid in this way, yet there has
been but little advance in the matter of
speed. Vessels would make speed records
on their trial trips and receive the bonus,
but when put into service they could not
maintain their records. OF the $3.OO0.00O
about two-thirds has gone to the Cramps
of Philadelphia.
When we began the building of the
new navy. it was thought desirable, be-
cause of the untried capabilities Of Ameri-
can builders. 10 offer them generous in
ducemcnts to improve their plants and
put forth their best efforts. The premium
was decided upon, but it was not the
speed bonus of to-day. The earlier ships
were contracted for on the plan of
premium for increased units of horse
power. Under this system were built the
Yorktown. Petrel, Concord. Bennington,
Charleston, Newark and Baltimore.
With the exception of the Baltimore.
S1O6,442 the contractors earned but lit
tie. 1t was the Baltimore's big horse
power bonus which determined the Navy
Department to change the system and
future contracts embraced provision
for speed premiums alone. These offers
were more than liberal. They began with
the Philadelphia and San Francisco, at
the rate of $4,000 per quarter knot in
excess of the contract requirement of 10
knots. Under this both vessels earned
bonus for their builders of 100000,
they having made 20 knots on their re-
spective trials. When the New York,
Columbia, Minneapolis and Olympia were
contracted for the offered premium was
increased to $4,000 per quarter knot
over 20 knots. The Cramps built the
ships and made them 80 very fast on their
trials, the Columbia earning S350.000 and
the Minneapolis S414,.600. This last
prize opened the eyes of the department,
and thereafter the offers of premiums
were very much reduced. and in the later
contracts for battleships and gunboats
they have been withdrawn altogether.
The great prize of $500 just won by
the Brooklyn is the last of the big pre-
miums. There are now only four ships
under construction that are TO pay pre-
miums for speed--the battleship Iowa and
the three gunboats building at Newport
News. The rate on these last, however.
is much lower. The Iowa is to receiv,
$50, 600 for each quarter knot excess. but
the guboats will only get 5000. AT this
rate the possible prizes will not he great |
though the Iowa may earn 100000. The
Kearsarge and Kentucky, battleshiDs, |
are to receive no speed premiums, nor are
the three additional battleships, author
lied by the next Congress. On the con-
trary, they are to forfeit $4,000 for
every quarter knot under 16.
