every way to any ships afioat in the
world today.
The second class cruisers. as at first
proposed, were to be of 5000 tons each,
but the board added 1000 tons to them,
to be utilized wholly in coal and carrying
capacity. They will have two S-inch
guns and ten to twelve 5-inch rapid fires.
The details of the six smaller vessels are
not yet determined upon, as all the ener-

10 Be Added to the Navy Imme-
diately, Congress Willing.

New York, Aug. 1S.-A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
A naval programme for presentation
to congress, involving the immediate
construction of fifteen warships has
been adopted by the naval board of ex-
perts to whom the subject has been re-
ferred by Secretary Long. 1t provides
for three sea-gOing barbette turret bat
tIeships of 5000 tons displacement and
minimum of 1872 knots speed when
the vessels are loaded to their deepest
draught, or an average speed of above
10 knots under ordinary cruising cOndi-
lions; three first class armOred cruisers
speed; three second class protected and
armOred cruisers of 5000 tons displace-
ment and twenty knots speed, similar
to the Maine type, but highly improved
and for six protected cruisers of $500
tons and sixteen knots speed.
The reduced speed of the ships, which
is uniformly about two knots less than
that proposed at the preliminary meet
brought about by the desire TO secure
unprecedented range of action on ac-
count of the increased responsibilities
of the United States in the Pacific and
the certainty that these vessels, or most
of them, would be required to make up
the fleet in that ocean The sacrifice
of speed to endurance was made with
a view of securing vessels of at least
ing straight away from San Francisco
to Manila and Samoa. The board de-
cided that the Pacific rather than the
Atlantic would be the chief theater of
American naval operations in the flu
ture and that, while great sacrifices to
the speed could safely be made for
vessels attached to the outer line of ma
tional defense on the east coast of the
United States, abnormal coal capacity
and high economy were prime requisites
as long as distant possessions to the
westward required protection. All the
vessels however, will be speedy as the
fastest vessels now building abroad and
they will be eminently more practicable
in endurance, strength and formidable
ity.
The main battery of each of the bat
tleships will be composed of four 12-
inch rifles in turrets on the center line
fore and aft, similar to those of the
Iowa and the secondary batteries will
mount IA and 10 rapid fire six-inch
guns In addition to these there will
be unusually large auxiliary batteries
of assorted sizes, both quick fire and
seni-automatic. The 13-inch guns of
earlier battleships have been put aside
in new designs on account of their
great weight and because it will be
necessary to increase materially the
length of the 12-inch calibre to meet
the requirement of smokeless powder
exclusively to be used hereafter in the
navy.

CERVERA IN NO HURRY.
He Will Be One of the Last to Leave
for Spain.

Washington, Aug 18.-Admiral Ger
vera will not return to Spain for the
present, and reports from Annapolis
stating that he would leave for Wash
ington today are said at the navy de-
partment to be due to misrepresentation.
The admiral has made no application
to leave and it is the belief that he will
be the last of the Spanish prisoners to
go home as he has shown a fatherly re-
gard for all the other officers and men
and appears to be DESTROYS of seeing
them on their homeward journey be-
fore he leaves.
The navy department has not taken
up the question of the final disposition
of the Spanish prisoners, although it
has passed upon one or two special cas-
es in which the circumstances made
speedy action advisable. One of these
was the case of DR.. Jurada, the Vener-
able Spanish naval surgeon held with
the other Spanish prisoners at AnnapO-
lis. The doctors reported that Dr. Jur-
ada was very feeble and that while he
might be able to reach Spain if released
now, he would not be able to make the
trip a month hence. The navy depart
ment accordingly directed his release,
and the Spanish chaplain will be al
lowed to accompany DR.. Jurada to
Spain
The case of Captain Moreu, COM
mander of one of the cruisers of Ger
vera's fleet, has also received special
attention by the department 1t APP
pears that Captain Moreu is not only
an officer of the navy, but is a member
of the Spanish parliament. With the
prospect that the parliament would as
sembIe at an early day, Captain MOreu
was DESTROYS of returning to Spain and
participating in the sessions. In par
ticular, he expressed the desire of tel
ling the Spanish parliament of the gen
erOus treatment accorded to him and
all other Spanish prisoners by the
United States. The officials here felt
that such i statement from Captain

dered.

WAR ALTERS CASES.
Joseph Il. Choate on the Country's
Obligations.

Saratoga, N. Y, Aug 1S-A large
audience assembled in convention hall
today and listened to the annual ad-
dress to the American Bar association
by Joseph H. Choate, of New York. The
address elected frequent applause. He
said in part:
I'VE meet at a most suspicious mo-
ment. Since this association last as
Sembled for its annual conference the
nation has been engaged in war which
has absorbed all thoughts and neces-
Sarlly distracted US from those peaceful
purposes which annually bring US to-
gether. But now, with unexpected
suddenness. at the cost of great treas
ure and much loss of blood of our he
roes, the truly noble object of the war
has been accomplished, and peace is
already in sight. 1t might perhaps be
expected that in accepting the very
grave honor of delivering the annual
address provided by our constitution, I
should enter upon a discussion of some
of those important questions which
must arise out of the consequences and
results of the war. 1t is obvious that
all such questions as they arise must
naturally engage the best thought and
the nOblest and most patriotic exer-
lions of our profession, which has al
ways exercised Il controlling influence
upon controversies about constitution
al power and national policy, and to
whose special keeping is entrusted the
study of those principles of right and
justice, which must govern the con-
duct of nations as well as of the indi-
viduals who compose them. AT all the
great and critical points of our national
progress the American bar has found
its appropriate spokesman for the pub
lie honor and the public safety. When

the British crown, pleaded for the right
