DEFENDING THE TEXAS.
Secretary Herbert Insists that the Vessel
Is Not Defective.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE navy de-
partment yesterday made public the find
ings of the court Of inquiry which investl-
gated the facts connected with the sink
Ing Of the Texas in dry dock at New York
recently. Secretary Herbert also gave out
a statement I'M which he says the vessel
represented the best accepted type whom
she was designed that she has no more
defects than are inherent in all new ships,
and that other vessels in our navy, which
he cites, are quite as much in need of
changes, although they have not been so
unlucky; that the Texas has suffered from
surreptitious attacks by naval officers,
which must cease; and that Captains
Evans and Glass pronounce the Texas the
best sea boat of the squadron.
The secretary quotes a letter from
Charles Cramp criticizing Rear Admiral
Brown for attacking private shipbuilders
as conspirators against the Texas, and
earnestly defending the vessel herself as a
good ship for her time, and the secretary
points out that all Of this talk is damaging
to the interests of tho navy and disastrous
TO the aspirations of our shipbuilders seek
Ing foreign contracts
The court of inquiry found that the YES
sci sunk because of flaw in valve yoke
casting, which broke and let in the water
and that no one was to blame
| Secretary Herbert, however, finds that
there was carelessness exhibited by Chief
Engineer Farmer Of the New York navy
yard and Chief Engineer Moore of the
Texas, in not putting in blank flange
when the valve was disconnected. No
further proceedings are ordered.

NOT A CATHEDRAL.

The Episcopal Church Will Devote all
Energies to st. Mary's School.
At a special meeting of the Standing
committee of the Diocese of North
Carolina, held at the Bishops house
October 9, the following preamble and
resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, In the opinion both of the
Bishop and of the rector of the Church
of the Good Shepherd, it is impractical
BILE ait this time to develop and carry
out a. Cathedral for this diocese, as for
other. causes, so especially because the
efforts of the churchmen of North Car
DINA should be concentrated upon the
permanent establishment of st. Mary's
School; therefore,
Resolved, That in the Judgment of
the Standing committee, acting under
the sanction of the resolution adopted
by the convention of May, 1896, the ac-
ton of the Bishop, and of the conven-
tion of 1895, in accepting the Church
of the Good Shepherd, Raleigh, as the
Cathedral of the Diocese, should be
rescinded, and by the authority reposed
in the Bishop and Standing committee,
said action is hereby rescinded."
The Bishop assents TO and joins in
the above action.
