Small Subscriptions to Bond Issue
Take Precedence.
WASHINGTON, June 11.-Assistant
Secretary Vanderl.p, who has had per-
sonal supervision Of the details of the
bond issue. said today:
1.-THE popular subscription of the
5000, 100000 bond issue just authorized
by congress will be received into the
treasury department just as soon as
the bill is signed by the president and
will close July g. This gives ample
time for the most remote sections Of
the country to receive detailed infor-
nation regarding the details of the
bond issue and to have subscriptions
from such points reach the treasury
Every channel will be used to dissem-
mate in the widest manner informa-
ton regarding this issue and to make
1T in every sense successful popular
loan. A great number of subscrip-
lions have been received in advance
Of the passage of the act, and there is
every reason to believe that the issue
will be largely over subscribed BY
the terms Of the law the allotment
will be peculiar The law provides
that the smallest subscriptions will be
first allotted and the allotments made
inversely in accordance with the size
of the subscriptions. That will result
in line being sharply drawn at some
point, and all subscriptions in amount
below that point will be awarded in
full, while all subscriptions for an
amount exceeding that sum will receive
no allotment whatever"

MADRID. June 11.-At the sitting Of

At this point a senator cried: "The

NEWPORT NEWS, June 1.-THE
Buffalo, the Nictheroy, of the Brazil
ian navy, and formerly the Ell Sid
which is now here to have battery
that will place her along side the
Raleigh and the Cincinnati type in
point of effectiveness, and, with a pro-
tective belt Of three inches Of steel, she
will be more formidable than vessel
of the Newark or San Francisco class
Although originally a merchant vessel
she is fast. and after conversion will
resemble much more war vessel than
coast steamer.
Orders have been received to begin
the work of overhauling her for serv-
ice with the fleet, and to place her in
readiness with all possible haste. The
plan of the department is to belt the
ship we'll below and above the water
line with a band Of three-inch steel,
and to mount a battery on her deck
that practically renders her second
class cruiser in fighting efficiency
The armor plate is on hand, having
been purchased at the beginning Of the
ers Harvard and Yale and the Morgan
liners, but there was no time to carry
out this scheme on account of the
urgent necessity of securing the serv-
ices of these vessels for scout duty
around Cuba.
Backed by her thick plate sides, the
Buffalo will present a solid four-inch
mass OF steel to protectileS, and this
will make her almost as well armored
as the New York. Her main battery
is to comprise ten siX-inch guns, one
forward, one aft, and the remainder
on broadside. In addition, she is to
have a large number of six and three
Founders, machine and Colt guns Com
pleted the Buffalo will be practically
a new warshic and as fine as most of
our 3,000-ton vessels. Years ago the
Nietheroy flew the flag that is to fl at
from her after taffrail the remainder
of her career.

same time that the Yankee, the Dixie,
the Prairie and other merchant ships
now on scout duty were, she soon be-
came known for fast steaming uuali-
ties, and when the insurgents seized
the Brazilian navy and blockaded Rio
harbor this ship was at once purchas-
ed, fitted with ordnance and a long
dynamite gun and sent to Rio, where
she arrived too late to operate against
