unusual activity of the last three weeks
was notlceably relaxed, as it has now
come to be accepted in these quarters
that there will be no action, certainly
none of radical character. toward
mediation or intervention, between
Spain and the United States. While
the recent exchange of notes was in
progress, some of the embassy offices
here were open nightly until 8 a. M,
receiving and sending cipher dis
patches in connection with the effort
of the powers to get together. This
proved unavailing, however, and. as
one of the best posted members of the
diplomatic corps stated tonight, 1.-The
powers have too many troubles of
their own to permit them to reach a
concert in this affair."
The Austrian minister, Mr.. Hengel-
muller, gave diplomatic dinner to-
night, the British and Frence ambas-
sailors, the Russian charge and the
Spanish minister being among the
guests. Although the powers We're well
represented, the gathering was purely
of a social character.

NEW YORK STOCKS.

NEW YORK, April 16-The tone of today 8
stock dealings, while dull and depressed,
gave no very active indications of appre-
hension. It was a rather waiting market,
as for some time past The transactions
outside of operations by professionals were
Insignificant. Selling by traders found few
seekers and prices consequently yielded very
readily. On the other hand. when the pro-
fessionais turned buyers. they found no
stocks Offering. and prices consequently cas-
lily recovered. Naturally, the net results Of
this kind OF Juggling from one hand to the
other and then back again were not large,
though the days price movement was pretty
wide.
The opening decline was due to sympathy
with London, where Americans all showed a
heavy tone. and where Spanish tours re-
lapsed after yesterdays closing within u Of
the lowest price made last Wednesday, in the
bear raid. European operators had appar-
emily lost their confidence in the efficacy of
the reported project for concerted mediation
by the powers The active preparations be-
iEg made by the United States admonished
observers that differences over the technicali-
ties of the Cuban resolutions were not ex-
pected to interfere with tn substance OF their
action involving armed Intervention.
Some slight recoveries in the second hour
were due to covering by the shorts, but they
were not held, and the list showed net de-

BY Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, April lit was
learned here today that May Is has
been fixed as the date for the launching
Of the United States battleship Ala
bama in course of construction at
Cramps shiI yard. Miss Morgan, daugh-
ter of United States Senator Morgan,
VIII. it is stated, christen the ship
r2med in honor of her native state.
The Alabama will be the first in the
water of the three big battleships con-
tracted for in October, 1896. The other
two. the Wisconsin and Illinois, are be-
ing built respectively at San Francisco
ard Newport News. All three are
identically alike.
The Alabama's keel was laid in No
venlber, 1885, and work on her has been
considerably delayed because of the
complication that arose over the cues
'tion Of tie price the government should
pay for armor plate. This matter is
likely to be settled sceedily now, as
the bill providing for the payment Of
S40O a ton for armor has passed the
house and is row pending in the SEN
ate. In all, $500 tons of armor will be
required for the three battleships, in
Guiding ballistic plates, bolts and other
necessary HarVeyized steel appurte-
narces.
The size of the Alabama can be COM
eight feet longer than the large battle
: ship Iowa, completed by the Cramps
last year. She is No. in the naval reg
lister and is technically known as a
n first-class sea- going battleship. Her
length on lead water line is SOS feet,
leXtreme bre adth y feet inches, mean
ldraught % feet inches. and displace-
inert at that draught 11.525 tons.
tShe will have two vertical in
iverted three-cylinder triple ex-
tparsion engines driving twin screws,
ESTIMATED to develop 10000 indicated
horsepower under a moderate forced
draught The guaranteed speed is to be
10 knots an hour. The boilers are to
carry $50 pounds pressure.
The armament will be four 13-inch
breech-loading rifles, mounted in pairs
in two elliptical turretS on the middle
line. one forward and one aft of the
. superstructure; fourteen 6-inch rapid
fire breech-loading rifles, mounted in
sponsors. and a secondary battery of
sixteen 6-pounder and four 1-pounder
rapid-fire guns, together with one gat-
ding and one field gun. She will also
haVe four torpedo tubes.
The side armor of the Alabama is to
(be 1872 inches thick at the top of the
fhelt, tapering to 915 inches at the bot
tom. In the turretS the port hole plates
will be II inches thick and other plates
10 inches. Inside of this will rise a pro-
Elective deck, with armor four inches
thick on the slopes aft, three inches for
ward and two and three-quarter inches
on the flat top.
