RUSSlES new CRUISER.
Some Facts About The Ship the Cramps Ere Now
Constructing.

The Russian government has decided
on the name of Waryog for the new
armored cruiser building at the
Cramps yards Philadelphia, for the
Russian navy. At the navy department
here the greatest interest is aroused
over the efforts the Cramps are max
ing with this ship. In the case OF the
Russian battleship Retwisen, the Phila-
delphia firm is working against time
with the hope OF establishing world $
record. says the New York Evening
Post.
In the construction of the Waryog.
everything. il Is said Is being sacrificed
TO speed. On a displacement Of only
5000 tons the Cramps have undertaken
TO maintain a sea-speed Of % knots per
hour. To accomplish this they are in
stalling enormous engines. capable OF
developing collectively 20 600 horse
power. This horsepower approaches
closely 10 the showing OF the engines OF
the st. Louis and st. Paul In point OF
displacement, the Waryog is about
one-half the size OF the st. Louis and
her sister-ship.
According to the data in the possess
sion OF the naval officials, the princi-
pal features OF the Waryog are as fol-
lows: Length. 420 feet beam. 80 feet:

DIR. III. c. Hibbe said to a reporter

and he called my attention to the case.
Sidney is a graduate chemist, and his

Since he came Off Blackwell's ISL

but at no time have his surroundings
and diet been suitable to the case
The treatment will continue for
some time yet, and he will in time be
an average healthy man.
The indications Of leprosy which
marked the face. the swellings. leathery
appearance of the skin and other signs

years. / have made careful studies OF
Sidney's progress, and all my informa-

colony, where experiments on large
scale can be made at one time.
"If taken up any time previous to

be cured: OF this am convinced"
