 One of the most important requisites or the proposed boats is that the distroyers shall be able to make a high speed in a heavy sea way and that the torpedo boats shall make a high speed in amoderate sem way. To guard against the dsablement ~rthe boats the circular provides that the engines and boilers shall be in separate compartments. the distroyers are to have a minimum capacity for coal of 100 tons, which will enable them to have steam ing radius of 5000 miles,
 The torpedo boats will have actual coal eapacity of forty tons, and their steaming radius will be about that now possessed by the torpedo boat Porter,which is With Admiral Sampson's squadron For such small vessels the torpedo boats are to De given very formidable armament;

interesting by the size of the bubbles and the fact that we played battledore and shuttlecock with them. They were not the genuine Vassar bubbles.
 As for the vassar soap bubbles, oh, they were different! Each as big as foot tub and as light as feather. The smallest too big for a battledore and the largest too large for sofa cushion We had to bat them with sheets which we held taut, so that the bubbles could bound on them, and when we got tired we would put out the lights and leave the wet bubbly suds to dry by themselves before morning.

 At Vassar, where we do things up fine, we used to take the gas pipe. such as you may use on gas lamps, oil stoves and the like. This pipe we would attach to the gas and one of us would hold up the end of the pipe while the others poured in the soap bubble mixture. Then we turned the gas on.

 If we had two gas jets we could blow the bubbles just so much the faster and sooner.
 When the bubbles were all blown we turned off the gas and fell to knocking the bubbles around That is the way to have soap bubble party. Be careful when you do it, though, that there is plenty of suds in the pipe or you may set the house afire.

From the Baltimore American.
 There is lesson in all these criticisms for Americans. One of the most wholesome Is to learn that we are. in fact an object of jelousy to the nations across the sea on account of our great and rich country and the ability we have to get on in the world After all, this nation must rely upon itself, and the sooner every effort at development Is made to bear directly on the virtue of self-reliance, with all that

From the Baltimore Herald.
 When the news of how well Americans treat prisoners of war gets around to the Spaniards there may be expected a general rush of the dons to get captured. Eating three emals a day in the enemy,s camp is preferable to serving without pay, being left to die in hospitals or picked off by crack American marksmen in the field.

FRESH SIGNS OF WAR

Secretary Long Places Our squadron ON

Washington, March 26.--Today was
one Of unexampled activity in all off
cial quarters. Adyices came early that
the Spanish torpedo fiotilla had sailed
from the Caharies for Porto Rico, and
from this moment the most energetic
warlike measures followed one another
in constant succession. The movement
Of this feet is watched with the keen
est interest. as it was felt to involve
serious possibilities which might COM
pei the United States government to
protest against the movement as Of a
hostile character.
Immediately on the receipt Of the
official dispatch from one OF our naval
attaches abroad, briefly announcing the
sailing Of the feet, the fact was made
known to the president, and an earnest
conference was held between him and
Secretary Long and Assistant Secretary
Roosevelt. The news of the movement
was fully considered, and the president
was advised that naval strategists re-
garded 1t as essential that the torpedo
feet should not be allowed to reach
Western waters. What, II any, con-
clusion was reached is not known.
Later in the day the Spanish min
lister, Senior Polo y Bernabe. called at
the state department and spent some
time with Judge Day. 1t was natural
ly inferred that the approach OF the
Spanish fiotilla was one Of the subjects
referred to.

Q and 10 o'clock. The sky is overcast,

and Of rapidly rising river tonight.
This Is an assurance that the Ohio will
have q protracted high stage Of water.
Reports from all quarters Of the Ohio
valley are Of drizzling rain or cloudy
skies. No clear weather is reported.
All towns report the Ohio rising rap
idly, except Wheeling, where II Is sta

suffered inundation before are finding
relief by the recession OF the waters.
Loss OF life is reported at Hamilton,
o., where the Great Miami swept away
two cottages and drowned six inmates,
namely. Mrs. Charles Whitman, her
three small children, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Springman. The story Of loss

The railroad eituation in the interior
OF Ohio Is improving. Cities cut of

In Cincinnati the following is the
railroad situation: No trains on the

HORRORS OF TAE WAR.
Cailinger Addressed the Senate ON Cuba
Suffering of the Reconcentrsdos.

Gallinger Addressed the Senate ON Cuba
Suffering Of the Reconcentrsdos.
Washington, March 25,--A vivid
word-picture OF the barbarities and
destitution in the island Of Cuba was
drawn in the senate today by Gallinger
(Rep. N. H. The senator recently
visited Cuba to study the situation
there. Long before the senate convened
the galleries were packed, Almost as
soon as the session opened Bacon Dem.
Ga introduced joint resolution de-
claring that the United States should
do everything in its power to preserve
peace with all the nations of the world,
and not be forced into war except to
preserve the dignity and honor Of the
nation. He said that he would not ask
for immediate consideration of the
resolution, but would permit it to lie
on the table till tomorrow.
Hale (Rep. Me- chairman of the
naval affairs committee. quietly rose
and favorahly reported the bill provid-
ing for relief of the survivors of the
Maine catastrophe. There was sup
pressed mnrmur Of expectancy in the
galleries, but the measure was read and
passed without a word of debate.
Gallinger's speech followed. He
spoke in low, clear tone Of voice, dis
'tinotly audible throughout the cham
ber. There was not an interruption
by word throughout his speech. His
auditors listened intently to his de-
scription Of the horrors and cruelty
suffered by the reconcentrados. When
he declared, however, that govern
ment that would starve 400, 900 Of its
people would do anything, and fol-
lowed this with further declaration
that the lives Of the brave men lost in
the Maine disaster could not be atoned
for with gold or silver, a spontaneous
wave Of applause swept over the gal
leries, and the vice-president had diff
Guilty in restoring order. When he had
concluded, he was accorded a burst of
applause, which the vice-president
made little effort to restain.
The senate then quietly resumed con-
sideration OF the bill making provision
for CIVIL government in Alaska, and
at 3 O'Clock took up the national quar-.
antine bill. Its consideration had not
been concluded when the senate sd-
iourned.

ON HUMANE GROUNDS.
President viii intervene TO Stop the
Caban War.

Washington, March 20. The feeling
was universal IN official circles today
that the culmination Of the Spanish
crisis was near at hand. With the re-
port Of the Maine court Of inquiry only
little while of, with the White
House the center Of long and earnest
conferences between thu president and
party leaders OF congress and with ex-
ceptional activity towards emergency
preparations in the war and navy de-
partments, there was an abundance OF
evidence that definite results regarding
the Maine disaster and the Cuban ques-
tion in general were about to be
reached.
There has been no change in the
plan Of sending the Maine report to
congress early neat week, accompanied
by message from the president. 1t is
definitely settled, however, that the
message and papers accompanying it
will relate exclusively to the Maine
disaster. It will not take in the fear
full condition Of affairs in Cuba, as
shown by the reports by United States
oonsuls, they being reserved for sub
sequent message to congress.
The prevailing impression among
the Republican leaders Of the house is
that the president will intervene In
Cuba on humane grounds, but is it
positively stated by one Of them, who
is close to the president, that the inter-
vention will not come until after the
report Of the board Of inquiry into the
Maine disaster goes to congress.
The two questions will be treated
separately, said be today, "and the
message relative to Cuba will be sent
to congress soon after the report on the
Maine question. I"
