Krupp armOr, which could be secured
at about $545 a ton, it is thought by
them more advisable to purchase the
Harvey plates and complete the ships
than to depend on future action of
Congress which might result in delay
ing the vessels Indefinitely. The mon
ey that would have to be paid for de-
murrage and caring for the ships
while waiting for the armor would
amount to large sum. Figures fur
nished the Ordnance Bureau show
that for this new Krupp armor, the
Russian Government is paying 1925 a
ton, and the Cramps 1915 for that
which will be used on the Russian
battleship and armored cruiser now
building at Philadelphia.
In anticipation that Congress would
provide literally for the navy in the
number of battleships and armored
cruisers, the construction bureau has
made considerable progress on the de-
signs for the vessels. Admiral Hich-
born, the chief constructor, intends to
proceed carefully in designing the
new ships and to make no effort to
to have the plans ready before Con
gress again meets. In his opinion no
battleship plans should be drawn un-
der a year, if that vessel is to be on
designs entirely new and some radi-
cal in comparison to those of similar
ships of their class already built.
The law provides three battleships
of Is, 800 tons each and three armor-
ed cruisers of Il, 800 tons displacement
each, the latter vessels to be almost
equal in fighting power to some first
class battleships. In appearance and
design Hichborn proposes to have all
the vessels strictly of the American
type. At the next meeting of the con-
struc ton board consideration will be
given the general lines on which the
ships shall be built as we'll as to the
batteries and other important points.

DOWN ON SEWER PLANS
Government Said to Be OPP
i, posed to Orange Valley
ioDraihagaa sd4

A Hudson county engineer who Is In
close touch with the Wa Department at
Washington is authority for the state
ment tina the Federal Government will
not permit the construction of the large
intercepting sewer, plans for which are
now under way for the drainage of the
Orange Valley.
The was designed to empty into
the Arthur Kills, the narrow channel con-
Meeting the Raritan River and Newark
Bay. 1t was to carry off the sewage OF
South Orange, Vailsburg, West Orange
Irvington, Milburn and a part Of Newarb
and perhaps Summit.
"A long contest will probably be the
outcome of the attitude of the Wal De-
partment on the subject" the engineer
said. 18th Government engineers are
watching the trunk sewer plans closely
and will interfere Just as soon as 1t Is
definitely announced that the outlet vii
be on the Arthur Kills. The State Com
| mission is considering the plans, and
recognizing the gravity of the sewage
problem along the Passaic River, viii
probably grant the required permit. The
Orange Valley drainage problem and the
Passaic pollution question dovetail close
Nv and have been agitated for years
sAt the last session of Congress a bill
was passed for the deepening of the Ar
thur Kills and the Passaic up to Pater-
son. to make them navigable. Plans have
been prepared, and the Government engi,
neers are in charge of the streams They
nave given it to be understood that they
will not permit the trunk sewer to empty
into the Kills."

'sHow much do you want for him, my

Don't know anything about the har-
ness, Senator, but you can have that
turtle for s25m echoed the Elberon voice.
Whereupon Mr.. Bradley bound the bar

diplomacy, he was placed in the tank

captive sea lion, who was given his free
dom by the generous founder two years
ago. !,
The turtle butted against the corners of
the tank and soon his nose was bleedlng.

CALCULUS CREMATED
Stevens Sophomores with
All Cruelty Made AZ End f05f
( Their Arch Enemy.

Hoboken was a red hot town last
night between the interest manifested In
the big fight at Coney Island and the
cremation of Calculus by the "Sophs' OF
Stevens Institute. A crowd of over one
thousand thronged Newark and Hudson
streets to listen to the returns of a
ticker, announced from a platform erect
ed outside of a popular sporting resort,
and the neighborhood rang with cheers
every time the results of the different
rounds of the big fight were sung off.
Fully 5000 people swarmed the campus
of Stevens Institute, to witness the
pranks of the students in disposing of
the mathematical demon. The exercises
this year were conducted on a more elab-
crate plan than ever.
Preceding the cremation he NSophs
paraded the principal streets, arranged in
fantastic costumes and carrying kerosene
torches. Calculus, in effigy, was laid out
in a coffin and pulled around on an old
wagon wheel, brought up the end OF the
line. The houses along Hudson street
were decorated with Chinese lanterns ana
the t~horoughfare presented a gala appear
ance.
After the parade the students tried
Calculus on the campus. r. J. oNeih
was Judge and Frederick Gibson prose-
cutor. Calculus was defended by j. D.
Gibson. The trial was a snort one.
Calculus was doomed to die and Judge
O'Neill made his sentence as severe as
possible, condemning him ito be hanged
and cremated with all cruelty"
The effigy was accordingly strung up
on a crude gibbet and while swinging was
riddled with bullets by the hilarious
sophs. 1t was then fastened to a STAKE
a match was set to the faggots and the
flames shot UP and consumed the dreaded
enemy, while the students danced around
in a ring screaming like wild Commences.
The faculty of the Institute viewed the
cremation from Stevens Hall. The ar
engagements of the evening were made by
the following committee:-L Gibson, q.
D. Chasteny, r. j. Younglove g. f. Mer-
rift and H. j. Botchford

A FOOL AND HIS MONEY.
Discharged Soldiers Costly En-
nerience in Wicked Hoboken.

Edward Mayer, twenty years old. q
discharged soldier of the Eighth Ohio
Cavalry, came to Hoboken last Monday
TO see the white elephant with $12l OF
Uncle Sans money in his clothes.
Among other places, he visited a re-
sort kept by Henry Hagen, at Bloomfield
and Newark streets, and was very much
impressed with the soubrettes of the
establishment. 1t was the same old story.
The girls feeced the golden youth right
and left, on Tuesday night he found
himself without enough money to pay
his fare pack to Des Moines, Iowa.
Last night he was picked up by PATROL
man Patrick Hayes. Jr., wandering aims
lessly around the streets. He was
brought to Police Headquarters but re-
fused to make any charge against the
concert hall proprietor.
az am sorry for you, said Recorder
Stanton in Diminishing Mayer Your case
proves the truth of the old adage, that
a fool and his money is soon parted
