BRITAIN'S ARMADA.

Some striking facts about the navy
are attracting attention. The year
1899 will be unique in British records,
for not only will the personnel reach
no. $40 men, twice as many as ten years
ago, but no fewer than fifty warshipS
of different types will enter the navy
ready to hoist the pennant for action.
These include the five great battleships
Albion, Campus, Glory, GOliah and
Ocean. totalling 54,750 tons, and cost
ing e5,OOO,OOO; fourteen protected crui-
sers and thirty-One unprotected ships.
Moreover six new armored vessels will
be begun, making a total of thirty-two
armored ships. Seventeen protected
vessels and fOrty-nine unarmored YES
sells are completing, advancing or be-
ginning, so that 1899 will see the stu
pendous number of ninety-eight Brit
ish warships under construction, rep
resenting an outlay of e175,O00, 900.

One of the prosperity touting papers
tells it's readers that 'there is a good de-
mand for labor" but "it cannot be said
that there is any scarcity of labor"
Farmers are wanting men to sow their
crop" it adds, "but they experience no
difficulty in obtaining the labor" Again
it says that "the manufacturing plants"
are working with full force, and there
is no scarcity of men, Managers of
manufacturing plants, it continues, "say
that they have many applicants for work,
but cannot hire them, as they are working
a full force" We have quoted from the
Springfield correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune; and the Tribune calls that pros
parity for working men. The report at
least has the merit of being true, which
cannot be said of all the prosperity touting.
The existing situation is doubtless one in
which men are wanted, but that tho supply
far exceeds the demand Business estab-
lishments are doing more business than
usual but unless they are monopolies,
they are making less money than usual.
And every business manager knows that
labor is drug. So few are the oppor-
tunities for employment tina. men who
work for living dread nothing SO much
as the prospect of losing the job they hap
pen to have.-The Public.

Experiments at Sandy Hook have de-
monstrated that the wet gun cotton packed
in shells may be handled with safety and
thrown from guns without risk of pIema-
ture explosion. The experiment is thus
described by staff correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune
"When Louis Gathmann, the Chicago in
yentor of the fuse and shell which bear
his name, proposed the test, the war de-
partment authorities were amazed at his
assurance. He seriously offered to take one
of the old smooth-bore 15-inch guns, such
as are still mounted on the iron monitors,
bury it under from Is to 20 feet Of sand,
put in firing charge Of 100 pounds of
somkeless powder, twice as much as would
burst the gun, load the piece with shell
containing S6 pounds of wet guncotton,
pack the rest of the gun with sand, and
then bury it under Is feet of sand with
stratum of heavy timbers, blow up the
whole thing, and yet leave the charge Of
guncotton in this shell intact"
This test was made with entire success.
Military officers say that if Gathmann de-
monstrates his ability to fire his explosive
at the right time as completely as no has
shown his ability to prevent its explsosion
at the wrong time, he will make good his
claim that battleships and armor plates
will soon be as useless as wooden ships,
and that the naval battles of the future
will 60 to the ship which gets in the first

The Capital City Votes for Municipal
Improvement.

Baton Rouge, La, May 16.-Baton
Rouge o-day voted on the proposition to
issue 5000, 900 of bonds for the purpose of
public improvement, and the result was an
emphatic pronouncement in favor of pro-
gress and the upbuilding of the city. OF
the 469 votes cast, 420 were voted for the
proposition, and 20 against The assess
ed valuation was even more overwhelm-
ingly in favor of the bond issue 1t
means that within the next few months
5000, 900 will be expended in works of
public utility and improvement, and by
the time of the next legislative assembly
the city will be severed and drained, sew
eral of the most important streets paved
and the banquettes put in thorough con
dition. The plan of improvement en-
braces the purchase of the waterworks and
the erection Of fine school building and
a city hall. Under capable and honest
city administration headed by Mayor
Robert A. Hart, the city will be placed in
the forefront of progress, and abreast
with the most enterprising southern towns.
The expenditure of money on public i'm
provement is in the hands of board of
public works carefully selected from the
safest business men.

N. 0. Wholesale 0r0cers Unite Against
the Trusts.

The wholesale grocers have put them
selves on record against trusts and will
endeavor to hold meeting ofthe merchants
OF the States to denounce the system. Fol
lowing are resolutions of the association:
Whereas, it is the sense Of this associa-
ton, derived from careful investigation,
observation and especially painful expert
ence, that trusts and combinations of capi-
tai to control the output and prices on
commodities are a menace to our national
safety and existence. From the same
unerring sources we assert as fact that
1t is the intention and purpose Of such
combinations and aggregations Of capital,
under the name Of trusts, by force and con-
centration, to control and manipulate
alike the values of raw material and man
ufsctured products, thereby enabling
themselves to dictate to the producer, the
Wholesale and retail dealers, as well as the
consumer, the prices they shall pay for all
manufactured commodities. We further
assert that the unopposed continuance and
enlargement Of trusts in our midst means
as certainly as any mathematical fact, the
absolute destruction Of our commercial
existence. Be it therefore,
Resolved, BY the Wholesale Grocers'
Association Of New Orleans, That, viewed
from political standpoint, we believe it
is to the best interests Of all true Amer
can citizens to use every endeavor to
cause the most extreme legislation against
the operation Of trusts that can be had
consistent with our State and national con-
stitntions be it further
Resolved, That, IS merchants, we are
convinced all mercantile interests would
be best conserved by active, energetic and
sincere cooperative action in the sale and
distribution Of goods and commodities man
ufactursd by factories outside OF the trusts
be it further
Resolved, That the president Of this
association be instructed to appoint =
committee Of Ave. whose duty it shall be
to present copy Of these declarations to
each Of the commercial bodies OF this city,
and extend them an invitation to appoint
\ like committee to confer with them, with
q view to formulating such plans and means

chants Of our State to bc held in this city,
