THE TORPEDO soAr PORTER.
The More Experiments Tried with Her
the BETTER She Appears.

New York June 12.-The United
States torpedo boat Porter has been put
through her maneuvering PAGES and
came up 10 all expectations
The board Of inspectors were taken
down TO the lower bay. The little black
fler cut her way through the waters,
and. although no attempt was made TO
obtain phenomenal speed, all other
craft were quickly passed and left be-
hind. Once out Of the channel the
work Of testing the torpedo guns was
begun.
Three torpedoes were fred. Two
worked exoeilently. but the third was
not successful, as the locking device re-
fused to work. Then the little fiier's
ability to twist and turn was exhib-
tied. Her turning circle was found to
be about 1,100 feet.
In reversing from full speed ahead to
full speed astern and vice versa she
proved a wonder, taking only 25 seconds,
and moving less than her own length
before she gained momentum I'm the de-
sired direction. After various other
tests Of her maneuverlng qualities the
Porter brought the board Of inspection
back 20 the city. and Its members ex-
pressed great satisfaction over the re-
suits of the trip.

New York, June 12.-According TO
Mayo w. HazeltiDe, the editorial writer
and book reviewer of The Evening Sun
and a lifelong friend of Joseph Rich

general consent at $4,000, 900. Now Mr..
Hazeltine says they will go much nearer
and he thinks over S3000O,0 0O0
His possessions were all in personal
property, paying large interests and
large dividends, all of which were con-
stantly allowed TO accumulate. as the
personal expenses of Mr.. Richardson
and his family did not exceed $500 a
year. Mr.. Richardson's win was drawn
under the direction Of Mr.. Hazeltine,
who is a lawyer, and this will was read
last night in the presence Of the heirs.
Aside from the family only two be-
quests are made.
The Rev. II. NJ. Warren, pastor of the
Central Park Baptist church, OF which
Mr. Richardson was an attendant, re-
ceives $4,000 absolutely. The other be-
quest is S17500, TO lift the mortgage
on the Central Park Baptist church.

All the rest is divided into three equal
portions. one of which goes to the
widow, another to the son George and
a third to the daughter, Della Richard

Mr.. Richardson's first marriage.
The son George and the widow arr

rHg CUISINES SITUATION.
Dams Review Says That the Gain Con-

Dams Review Says That the Gain Con.
tinues Moderately but Distinct.
New York. June 12.-Dun's Review
for the week says:
The gain in business continues. not
without fluctuations and at the best
moderate but yet distinct. 1t Is still
in quantities rather than prices. al
though In some branches an advance In
prices appears. but on the whole the
number of hands employed. the volume
of new orders and the amount Of work
done are slowly increasing. Prospect
of good crops of wheat and cotton help,
growing demand from dealers whose
stocks a gradually gaining consumption
deplete also helps, and in the money
and exchange market large buying Of
American securities has an influence.
Foreign purchases Of stocks exceeded
sales for the week by about $4,000
shares, and meanwhile commercial
bills against products to be moved
hereafter are larger than the market
win take
The outgo Of gold means only that
a price sufficient TO cover loss by ship
ment is paid. and the slackened call for
commercial loans this week is but evil
dence that preparations to carry ex-
against future operations have been
completed by many large manufactur-
ers. Money coming hither from the
west even as late as June 10. with great
crops near at hand, indicates q healthy
condition at the west.
Indications Of the volume Of business
are seen in clearing house exchanges,
which for the week exceed last years
81 per cent, and in railroad earnings
which amount, in the United States
alone, to s34. .7OS, ,sS7 on roads reported
by Dunn's Review for May, 1913 per cent
larger than last year and 3 per cent
larger than in 1892
Wheat looks well. and the best trade
authority now estimates the yield at
$1,000 bushels, with many state and
railroad returns to support Il.
Iron furnaces In blast June reported
a weekly output of l6S,SS0 tons against
10, 52S May /, and in unsold stocks, eN-
elusive of the great steel companies,
an increase Of II, ,6l3 tons for the month,
to 1,O5O,252 tons.
The dispatches from cities in all parts
of the country are especially worthy
| of notice, because they show a contlnu-
ing though gradual increase in the vol
ume OF actual business in spite Of the
weather, which has extensively retard-
ed dealings A dull season approaches

INTERESTING LAND CASE.
Decision Rendered by the Comptroller
In "a Tax Sale.

DECISION NcnueEta ny Nue NompAIoAtN
In Tax Sale.
Rome. n. Y. June 12.-Comptroller
Roberts has just decided an interesting
case, setting aside the cancellation and
sale of over 1000 acres Of land In the
town Of Willlamstown, N. Y. Seven
hundred acres Of the land are owned by
Hon. Edward Comstock Of Rome and
John Murray of Wiiliamstown.
In 1859 the land was bought at tax
sale by the late Hon. Calvert ComstoclS
OF Rome. In 1866 the courts held that
the sale was invalid and could be set
aside on application Of the purchaser
or former owner. In case Il was the
purchaser he could have the money
paid for the property refunded.
In 1876 Calvert Comstook died. and in
1856. on an application 70 which was
forged Mr. Comstock's name, some per-
son received S5ts. the amount that had
been paid for the property In the hear
ing which resulted In setting aside the
cancellation and sale the fraud was un-
earthed. Since the hearing closed the
comptroller has traced the matter back
and although the name Of the guilty
party has not been revealed the S51s
have been recovered, with interest from
1856
