Cramp Calls on Roosevelt.

Washington, Aug. 6.-Charles Cramp
Of the shipbuilding firm of Cramp &
Sons was at the navy department yes
terday In conference with Acting Secre-
tary Roosevelt and Captain ONeil, chief
of the ordnance bureau, to learn the in
tention of the department In the matter
of procuring armor for the battleships
now building. The response OF the
Cramps to Secretary Longs invitation
to submit proposals for supplying such
armor as they need for the ships they are
building has been delayed by the abb
s. Cramp. He has now made answer,
and as was expected. declines to under
take tho task. He was not averse, how
ever, to undertake to supply the small
quantity of diagonal armor. amounting
to about 80 tons for each ship. at the
maximum price allowed by congress
$500 per ton--his offer to do this being
based on a desire to prevent a possible
stoppage of work on the ships owing to
the lack of this particular armor. which
must be worked into the hull structure.
Meanwhile the acting secretary is pro-
ceeding to carry out the direction Of
congress on the lines laid down by Sec
retary Long, and he has completed the
personnel Of the special board which is
to make an investigation Of the cost Of
establishing . government armor plant.
The board will consist of Commodore
Howell. commandant OF the League ISL
and navy yard; Captain Mccormick.
captain Of the Norfolk navy yard: Chief
Engineer Perry. from the Monterey;
Civil Engineer Menocal, from the New
York navy yard; Lieutenant #. Fletcher.

In the history of the National league, they
are not remembered. In the first inning
of the game II batsmen faced him, Of
whom eight made line hits, including two
singles, four two basers and two triples, q
total Of 16 bases on clean hitting, earning
seven runs because no chances were offered
to make errors, and mono were made. In
spite of this terrific punishment the vet
eran remained In the nine, and the first
two men to face him In the next inning
bit him for a single, double and another
earned run. Thus 13 batsmen In succes-
sion had made total Of 81 bases on clean
hitting and eight earned runs. But right
there came the change. Young all at
once got control. The next three foes
were retired. and not another run during
the remainder of the game did the New
Yorkers get of his delivery. To make his
triumph the more marked, the nine behind
him batted out enough runs to overcome
that lead Of eight. 1t Is doubtful whether
any but pitchers of Young's class could
make such a rally after an attack like
that.
Speaking Of pitchers Is q reminder
that Joe Corbett appears to have won his
spurs He is now Baltimore's main de-
pendence, having dothroned the former
king, Hoffer Corbett's best trait Is his
courage, strong factor In q pitcher. His
courage comes as an Inheritance, In which
his noted brother shares. Courage and
nerve are what every successful ball player
must have. o. p. CAYLOR.

The largest farm in this country and
probably In the world Is situated In the
southwestern part of Louisiana. 1t ex-
tends 100 miles east and west. 1t was
purchased In 1883 by a syndicate of north
ern capitalists, by whom 1t is still oper-
ated. At the time of Its purchase it's
1900, 900 acres was q vast pasture for cat
tie belonging to few dealers In that
country. Now 1t is divided into pasture
stations or ranches, existing every six
miles. The fencing IL said to have cost
about $4,000. The land Is best adapted
for rice, sugar. corn and cotton. A tract,
say half q mile wide, Is takon, and an en-
gine Is placed on each side. The engines
are portable and operate cable attached
to four plows. BY this arrangement 60
acres are gono over in day with the labor
of only three men. There is not single
draft horse on the entire place, II we ex.
oept those used by the herders Of cattle, Of
which there are 10, 600 head on the place.
The Southern Pacific railway runs for 30
miles through the farm. The company
has three steamboats, operating on the
waters Of the estate, of which 800 miles
are nsvigable. It has also an ioehouse,
bank, shipyard and rice mills.-Knoxville

material II no doesn't win dozen games
In two years. Mr.. Kerr has met with
much discouragement from the work OF
the veterans on his team and has come to
a final conclusion that the way to get a
winning team Is to begin at the ground
and build up. That theory Is all right,
but no must have master builder In
charge, good manager, and such man
is hard to get.
There haven't been many of the young
players of the big leagues brought In this
year who have made pronounced Successes.
Among the most prominent of them are
Hartman of ST. Louis, Callahan Of Chi
oago, Powell Of Cleveland and Stahl OF
Boston. Except these four men, and no
other first class star has been developed

"Linited."

"Tho word limited in connection with
corporations anG firms, explained a prom
inent lawyer to a reporter, 'is now In very
general use. 1t originated In England, and
almost every business concern there Is q
limited partnership. or all the cities In
this country Philadelphia has more limit
ed partnerships than any other, though
there was not one thero 90 years ago.
Philadelphia got the idea during the Gen.
tennial, and, 1t having been found by ex-
pcrience to be good thing, 1t has grown
instantly. 1t means that those interested
in a firm gro only interested to limited
extcnt--that Is. only to tho extent which
is stated in the articles Of incorporation.
The limit Of one member Of q firm
therefore may be $4,000, while the limit
Of another may be ten times that amount,
or ono tenth, or any other part. Thus, in
the firm of Brown, Jones & Co., limited,
Brown may have three-fourths of the
stock, and Jones and the others the re-
manning fourth. 1t limits the responsibil-
ity, an 1t makes member Of the firm lia-
BILE only for that which 10 named In the
articles OF incorporation. In this kind Of
corporation or firm the law which allows
them to limit their responsibility also re-
quires that the word limited shall always
be used in naming the firm, 30 that all
may know exactly that, though there may
be large number Of very heavy men fnan-
cially interested In q concern, their inter-
est and responsibility are limited. 1t is q
fair thing all around, for 1t prevents the
use Of big names, which have sometimes
been used to boom enterprises and corpo-
rations, when. In reality the owners Of the
names have had but little interest In the
concerns. ."-Washington Star.
