Wilmington and fieIota Have Good Sea
going Qualities.

Washington, d. c., March 30.--A
brief telegram from the president Of the
Naval Trial Board, Commodore Dewey,
confirms the press report OF the per-
furnionoe yesterday OF the gunboat
Helena on her trial trip, namely, l5.8
knots uncorrected for the tides and
wind. Commander Brownson, Nom.
Der OF the board, has returned to
Washington, and speaks in terms OF
praise Of the boat. as well as of her
sister ship, the Wilmington. The naval
officers have been surprised with the
sea. going qualities Of these craft. and
Commander Todd, who took the Helena
round to the Sound from Newport
News, says that she behaved beauti-
fully in the SWELL Because these boats
are designed on peculiar lines, to make
them suitable for navigation in shallow
rivers il was hardly expected that they
would be good, deep sea boats, but the
queer tunpel-liks lines of the stern,
which were looked upon with suspicion
from the deep water point of view, II
is said, have not in any sense destroyed
the ability of the boats in heavy
weather.
Tho final fitting out of the Whining
ton and the Helena will take about six
weeks' time, and when they are shaken
down one of them will he sent to the
South Atlantic station to relieve the

tuition Of, Democrats in their plaras.
Both MIR. Webster, the Incoming

SO far as he has any voice In the

department has done very satisfactory
work and he SECS no advantage to be
gained by turning a man out OF office
