NOT TO BUY ARMOR PLATE
Naval Board Announces h II Has
No Aud ority 60 Purchaes.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 8, 1897.-The
Naval Board appointed to inquire into the
question of establishing a Government
factory for the manufacture of armor
met at the Navy Department today and
with reference to (he lar offers of
plants and sites decided that its orders
gave it nothing whatever to do with the
selection of a site or the purchase of a
plant.
A member of the board said today if
the Carnegie Company offered its plant
for 81 it would not be within the scope
of the Boards work to consider the offer.
At the same time all the tenders are being
courteously acknowledged and all infor-
nation asked on the matter is furnished.
The Board will confine it's work strictly
to the points specified in the instructions
from Acting Secretary Roosevelt of as
certaining what steps are necessary to
stablish a Government armor factory of
sufficient capacity to meet probable re-
q~uirements and of furnishing plans and
specifications of the land, buildings and
machinery necessary, together with the
Boards opinion on the advisability and
cost of establishing a complete plant and
will frame a form of advertisement for
proposals for a plant.

KlERNANs LITTLE BILL.
Calls ON the Mayor to Assist Him In
: Getting His MONEY.

Contractor Herman called on Mayor
Hoos this morning to see if His Honor
wouldn't assist him in collecting a little
bill of about $4,000 which Mr.. Herman
says the City Hall Commissioners owe for
work and material on the new City Hall.
1t seems the City Hall Commissioners
are holding back the contractors final
payment because some of his work, they
say, is not satisfactory, and because he
has not, in their estimation. done what
he should have done.
The roof of the building is not without
many leaks, and as a consequence after a
rain shower the water makes its appear
snce in the walls. Especially in this the
case in the library of the officer of the
law department on the third floor. There
in one corner the wall and cornice are
completely spoiled. Similar spots Of
dampness caused by the leaky roof are
seen in other portions of the building, and
the Commissioners think that before the
taxpayers money goes out the work
should be properly done.
The Mayor could give Contractor sKier-
nan very cold comfort, but assured him
that he would do what he could.

Adventure of a picture.

We have heard of the adventures of a
guinea. The story of a painting brought
to Rome by Queen Christina of Sweden
is not less interesting. The subject is
Leda and her attendant nymphs attack
ed in a bath by swans. 1t was painted
367 years ago for the Duke of Mantua,
and given by him to the Emperor Charles
Spain. Ii was bought there by the sculp-
tor. Leone Leoni. who sold it to a pic

peror Rodolph II. The Swedes took it.

after 1t was handed over to him. 1t

LAST DAY IN IRELAND.
York and the Duchess Are Feted in
Belfast-Eighteen Addresses.

TBy Cable to The Associated Press.]
BELFAST, Sept. s, 1S97.-This was a
very busy day for the Duke and Duchess
of York, and it was the last of their stay
in Ireland. In anticipation of their de-
parture the city was in a state of holi-
day enthusiasm, flags n other decora-
tons were to be seen on nearly all the
side streets, as well as on the main
thoroughfares. Their Royal Highnesses
on arriving here from Moun Stewart, The
County Down residence of the Marquis of
Londonderry, drove to the Town Hall,
where they received no less tina eighteen
addresses from different public bodies be-
longing to the province of Ulster. The
Duke and Duchess were then entertained
at lunch by the Corporation of Belfast,
after which they were present at the for
NAL opening of the new dock here. No
sooner was tina ceremony concluded than
the royal travellers inspected the famous
s~hipbuilding yards of Harland C Wolff.
From there the Duke and Duchess were
escorted to the ground upon which the
Lord Mayor of Belfast gave a garden par
ty in their honor. After the garden par
ty their Royal Highnesses went to Bel
fast Tough, where they embarked on
board a royal yacht for Glasgow, Scot
land, thus ending a very successful and
popular visit to this portion of Her Ma
Jesty's dominions.
The royal procession was greeted with
enthusiasm by the crowds of people who
crowded all the side streets running into
them.

PERRY HANGED.
Murderer of Belly Lauier Cool
and Brave to the
Last.

ATLANTA, Ca, Sept. s, 1S97.-H. S.
Perry was hanged for the murder of Belly
Lanier at Decatur today. The execution
took place on a gallows in the yard of the
De Kalb county Jail. The doomed man
was pale but cool collected to the
last. On the scaffold he declared his in
nocence of the crime of murder and re-
iterated his statement that he killed
Lanier to protect the sactity of his home.
The drop fell at 11:4s Al. NJ.
Horace Stevens Perry was conducting a
small grocery business in Atlanta when
he. committed the crime for which he
paid the penalty on the gallows today. TO
supplement the family's income, Mrs.
Perry took boarders at their home on
Piedmont avenue, and among these was
Belly Lanier, a young theological student.
The domestic relations of the Perrys were
not happy. Perry had become infatuated
with a woman of questionable character.
Jason Lanier became involved and as a
result Perry shot and mortally wounded
him in the Court House at Decatur on
Monday. March IS. After lingering for a
few days Lanier died from the effects of
the wound. Both men were under arrest
when the shooting occurred, having been
taken into custody at Ingleside, to which
place Perry had followed Lanier for the
avowed purpose of ayenging an insult to
his wife.
Though both. were searched, Perry sue
ceeded in concealing a pistol and no
sooner had the party entered the Court
House at Decatur than he fired upon
Lafier.
After the shooting Perry said that his
only regret was the fear that Lanier
might live. He declared that Lanier had
outraged Mrs. Perry.
Lanier ~strenuously denied that he had
committed the assault, and before his
death made a statement in which he
said Perry was angry because he (Lanierl
had told Mrs. Perry of Perry's alleged
relations with other women
Perry was tried at a special term of
the De Kalb Superior Court, at Decatur,
case was appealed to the State SUI
preme Court. which refused to grant a
new trial. Strong pressure was then
brought to bear on Governor Atkinson
to save the condemned man, but after
granting a respite to allow himself time
to investigate the case, the Governor
refused to interfere. The sole plea of
the defence throughout was that Perry
killed Lanier to ayenge an outrage upon
his wife.

men from different parts of the State
were present at Masonic Hall this morn
ing when General Bird w. Spencer, Pres
ident, called to order the twentieth an
nual convention of the New Jersey State
Firemen's Association.
President Spencer made a short address
and then Mayor Sickel delivered the adj
dress of welcome.
The entire morning session was taken
up with the receiving of the reports of
the legislative and executive committees.
The report of the Legislative Committee
gave a review of it's efforts for and against
legislation at the last session of the Legis-
lature. 1t told particularly how the COM
mittee had defeated the attempt to do
away with the $500 tax exemption allowed
to f1remen by taking the position that
they would consent to such a bill pro-
vided the Legislature should also abolish
the exemption allowed to m~ilitiamen,
charitable institutions, etc.
They also told of the securing OF the
passage of a bill providing for the PEN
sioning of firemen injured in the dis
charge of their duty,
The report of the Executive Committee
included half a dozen recommendations,
and when a motion was made TO adopt
the report considerable opposition was
manifested, and it was decided to take
up the recommendations seriatim at the
afternoon session. The most important
recommendation provided for the appoint
ment of a committee of eleven with full
power to carry out the plan of last year
home. The other recommendations were
| these:-
Eligibility to life membership to officers
of the association and those who have
been delegates for five years.
1t was stated that under the present
plan of accepting life members that the
regularly elected delegates would soon
be in the minority; favoring the appoint
ment of an auditor at "a salary of $500
to examine the financial affairs of the
different local associations; advocating
an increase in the salary of the Council
Of the association, who now receive $500
a year; recommending to surety COM
panies for the purpose of securing bonds
for the financia officers of the several
local organizations, and providing that
where new local associations are formed
that the funds of the old associations
shall be divided between the old and new
associations on a basis of the member
ship in each.
The Convention then took a recess.

ST. LOUIS NEW RECORD.
American liners Prove Ocean Flyers
-T~aufonic,a East TriD. :

-
NEW YORK, Sept. s, 1S97.-A cable
gram received this morning from South
ampton announced that the American
Line steamer ST. Louis, which it was
surmised yesterday afternoon was MAX
ing a new record, locked at Southamp-
ton at $50 this morning, and that the
time of her passage from Sandy Hook
Lightship to the Needles was 6 days, 10
hours and IA minutes
This is the best eastward time ever
made to Southampton, and the ST. Louis
has not only broken her w best pre-
vious record by l hour and l6 minutes,
but has shattered the record of the Ham
burg Liner Furst Bismarck, held since
September, 1898, by Al minutes, wrestling
from her the supremacy on the South
ampton eastward passage.
The st. Louis and the st. Paul now
hold the best Southampton records, the
former having the eastward record by
her performance just completed, and the
latter the westward by making the pas
sage in 6 days and 81 minutes in August,
1896. This fact is a triumph for Ameri-
can ship building, for not only do the
st. Louis and ST. Paul float the Stars
and Stripes, but they were both launch
ed from an American shipyard. These
steamers have considerably reduced their
time since their first trips, as can be
seen from the following figures, which
gives promise that they may do better
yet when met by. a competitor. The
St. Louis on her first eastward trip in
June, 1895, was Z days, 8 hours and 81
minutes making the passage, which she
has lowered up to the passage just COM
pleted in six successive stages. On her
westward passage, her first trip in June,
1895, was made in Z days, Z hours and
lib minutes.
The White Star Line steamer Teutonic
arrived this morning from Liverpool and
Queenstown, after a remarkably fast trip,
Her time Of passage was 5 days II hours
and % minutes, only 81 minutes less than
her best former record of 5 days, i
hours n 81 minutes. She brought 2Ss
saloon, 1856 second cabin and 694 steerage
passengers. Among the saloon passen-
gers was Mrs. J.. P. Morgan and two
daughters. They were met at Quaran-
tine by Mr.. ]. P. Morgan, who boarded
the Teutonic from his steam yacht Cor
