SPEED AND SAFETY
BY Means Of Oil Distributed on HuIIs Of
Vessels While in Motion.

The invention of a simple and mex
pensive device for accelerating the
speed of ships and preventing bar
r,acles and corrosion has recently been
brought to the attention of the chief
Iof construction and other officials of
the navy department in Washington,
with the result that Assistant Secre
tary of the Navy McAdoo has appoint
ed Chief Engineer George Cowie. Jr.,
L. S. N, stationed at the New York
navy yard, a commissioner to witness
a test of the idea on a large scale ana
report on it to the department.
The invention consists of mechan-
ism Which envelopes the submerged
portion of a ship with a film of oil.
thus reducing friction and overcom-
ing to large degree the resistance
of the water.
A series Of iron flanges are fastened
along the bottom and sides of the
ship below the water line, in which are
inserted sheets of woven wire netting,
lathing or sheet iron, covered with an
absorbent composition saturated will!
oil. The flangeS have a semicircular
covering on top, below which runs
finely perforated pipe, which elects q
fine spray of oil against the inside of
the flange and on to the sheets, from
which it spreads downward.
The oil is not carried away by the
water, but through capillary attrac-
ton is spread, thus keeping the ships
hull creased without any waste OF
oil. 1t is said that the composition is
perfect carrier of OILY under the sur
f., Of l,e,
never before .-~Seen achieved and
which will make oil perform below the
water line the same service that it
does in-uuelling rough sea.
1t Is said for the invention that, APP
plied to any vessel, either steam or
sailing, it will increase the speed by at
least twenty-five per cent. without
augmenting the amount of machinery
or the expenditure of fuel. Another
and most valuable feature claimed is
that it will prevent the growth of bar
nacles. These enemies to ships hulls
necessitate frequent dry docking and
scraping, at large cost.
The inventor also declares that the
fatty composition will completely pre-
vent corrosion of hulls.
The oil used is crude petroleum, and
is supplied to the pipes by tanks and
valves located above the water line.
The system is so arranged that in
rough weather a large quantity of Oil
can be discharged along the sides of
the ship and distributed over the sur
face of the water, thus providing
more effective method of greasing and
smoothing high seas than any yet de-
, vised.

CONSERVATIVE ATTITUDE.

Evident the New Administration Will
DO Nothing Radical Regarding Cuba.
CHICAGO, March 1.-THE Record 8
Washington special says: Mr. Sherman
has announced to his associates that he
is in fair way to make an arrange
ment with Spain that will remove the
great cause of irritation in Cuba. He
has submitted to the Spanish govern
ment, through Minister Taylor, prop
osition that American citizens who
are suspected or convicted of completely
with the insurgents shall be imme-
diately expelled from the island with
out Imprisonment or prosecution, I'M
less they shall voluntarily return and
place themselves in jeopardy. This
would not apply, however, to persons
engaged in active hostilities and taken
with arms in their hands. Mr.. Sher-
man is also proposing to negotiate a
treaty with Spain by which the rights
of naturalized citizens shall be defined.
It is evident that the policy of the new
administration towards Cuba will be
as conservative as that Of President
Cleveland, and every effort will be
made to enforce the neutrality laws.

Mississippi at Memphis Continues to Rise

MEMPHIS, Tenn, March 10 The
Mississippi river CONT nues to rise and

The river stands at 46. 3 feet, rise of

The Little Rock and Memphis rail-
road managed to get its morning trains

night, when it commenced using the
tracks of the Iron Mountain The lat

around town and plantations have
broken, but so far as heard from, there
have been no breaks in the main levee
systems.
At Marion, where break in the
dyke occurred Friday night, scene of
desolation exists.
At Osceola grave apprehension is
felt.
At Sans Souci, a small town imme-
diately below Osceola, the Anchor line
steamer Bluff City attempted to land
her passengers and freight. The citi-
zens and levee patrolmen ordered the
captain to keep his boat moving, saying
that the waves from the steamers
wheels would break over the levee.
The captain, however, attempted to
land, when the boat was met by a
wholesale fusilade of bullets from the
shore, but fortunately no one was hurt.
