Washington, May 3.-An official re.

She had some coal protection around
the sides and an arohed steel deck
calculated to protect the yltals OF the

save those recently added to the navy,
like the McCulloch, have lighter steel
decks of this character, but in all
cases, with the exception OF some
slight protection In the nhNpe OF gun
shields, the personnel Of the ship was
exposed TO the fire Of the enemy.

A break at the sugar factory, Friday,
necessitated shutting down for few
days, but the stop was not Of material
consequence.
The main shaft Of the slime pump
took notion to divide itself and it did +,

The cessation of cutting allowed a
large accumulation Of beets in the sheds,
