1t Is Claimed That She Will Attemnt
Unusual Speed.
SAN FRANCISCO, November 27.-The
United States cruiser Philadelphia wants tn
own record. so navy gossip has it, and
She fondly hopes to secure it on the coming
trip to Callao. 1t is said that her officers
have firmly determined that the vessel
shall break all existing records for armored
cruisers
Notwithstanding the officers refuse to
corroborate the report. it comes from a
gccd source and would seem to be borne
out by the nature Of the preparations made
for the voyage. No stop will be made on
the way down. though it is usual for war
ships bound to South America to recoal at
Panama In anticipa tion of the long vow
age 100 tons of coal were put aboard tina
rruiser, and every inch of available space
is being economical, encroachments even
being made on the officers quarters. The
polished floor in the ward room has been
taken up and a coal chute passes through
the apartments. The Philadelphia has all
the coal she can carry. and tomorrow has
been set as the sailing date.
