Macon" Mccormick Writes Interestingly Of American
Ships and Shipbuiders Must Pay Subsidies if We Are

New York, Aug. i.-The speed attained

ever made by large vessel in either the
mercantile or the naval sArvice of any
nation of the world.
1t is true that greater speed has been
attained in spurts by torpedo boats. but
they are merely racing machines and are

The speed of the Variag exceeds that of
the Deutschland, the speediest of the
transatlantic greyhounds. and this is a
feather I'm the cap of Americans
Previous TO the breaking out OF the
Civil war Americans held the speed rec

for sailing vessels. During the Civil war

Wnen we again attempted 10 resume the
art OF oceanic shipbuilding we found our
selves very seriously handicapped in
many ways. For hundred years or
more American shipbuilders excelled all
others. During the war OF 1sl2-1S15 our
naval victories were due TO several
causes. not the least OF which was the
fact that the Constitution and several

THE VARIAG.

by the victory of the yacht America,
which won the Queens cup by outsailing
the crack vessels of England.
AT that time the famous Collins line
of American steamers plying between
New York and Liverpool eXcelled all their
English competitors hours I'm traversing
the ocean ferry between New York and
Liverpool and Liverpool and New York.
One OF the ocean cables between Europe
and this country was laid by the crack
steam frigates of each nation, England
and America, the English boat being the
Agamemnon and the Yankee being the
Niagara, designed and built by George
steers. the man who had designed and
built the America.
These frigstes had race on the ocean
in which the American vessel proved TO
be far the superior of her British oppo-
nent i'm speed.
Up TO that time all the improvements in
naval architecture were due 10 American
ingenuity. 1T was the Americans who
first dispensed with bowsprits and the
bowhamper IL was the Americans who
introduced deckhouses and cabins above
the decks of the steamers. 1t was the
Americans who cut down the rigging of
steamers. I'm fact, the Americans led I'm
all improvements In hulls and rigging
that were made up to that time.
When the war was over IL was found
that England had improved marine en-
gines considerably by compromising the
engines, that Is, by working the steam
first In n high pressure cylinder and next
in low pressure one. they had been en-
abled To save quite an amount of fuel.
This saving was subsequently consider

The general idea of devising; an APP
paratus for writing at a distance in
facsimile is not a new thing, and many
attempts have been made to utilize it.
More than half a century ago Alexan-
der Bain Of Edinburgh invented an APP
paratus by means of which written or
printed characters formed in metal
and set up at a receiving station were
electrically reproduced in facsimile at
q receiving station. In 1856 notable
writing or copying telegraph system
was invented by the Able Caselli Of
Florence. and this was operated practi-
cally between Paris and Marseilles,
distance of $50 miles. This line did
not receive public patronage, however,
and was disused. Various moditica-
tions of Casellis system, as the Deni-
son Autobiography, were introduced
from time to time, but no copying tele-
graph except Caselli's was ever en-
ployed in a way to attract much public
attention. The photographic systems
are distinguished from the copying tel
egraph systems by the fact that in the
former the characters are transmitted
and reproduced at the receiving station
by electricity at the very time that the
operators pen or pencil is forming
them at the sending station. The first
photographic invention was made in
England in 1874 by E. A. Cowper, who
called it a writing telegraph. This was

THEY SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE.
Farmers Tell of Profits They Made by Pat
ronizing Roundap Plant.

Seeing in southern paper the
names of number of farmers who
hauled their cotton to the rOundlap
press operated by Mr.. D. NJ. Eel at
Faulkner, Texas. the Southern Farm
Magazine of Baltimore wrote to them
to learn whether their experience had
shown the roundlap ballng method TO
be profitable to farmers. Without eX-
ception he replies were highly Halter
ing to the roundlap bale; not one con
tanned any criticism of it.
Mr.. FL. w. Dickson of Crisp wrote:
"Mr. D. NJ. Ezell ginned my entire
crop last season Part of my crop |
had ginned into roundlap bales and
part | sold in the seed. The first that
1 had ginned was IN the first days OF

there was a square press in competl-

Mr. L. Nj. Julian OF Crisp: 81 sold

hauled pass two sqaure gins. Neither
OF these gins would offer me more than
cents a pound in the seed. They also
stated that they would lose money at
that. SO Mr. Ezell's roundlap price
caught me at 2.45."
Mr.. j. l.. A. Grizzard of Bristol; ~

bale put up on the roundlap bale press

bale press paid its patrons more for
cotton than the square bale press.
Mr.. j. NJ. Andrews of Bristol: 81 had

These are samples of many letters,
written by farmers all over the cotton
states, bearing witness to the fact tnat
roundlap bales bring the producer
higher prices than square bales.

New York and EuroDe-Its Intend-

ephone-Cost OF the New Device.
Recent reports from London have re
vived interest in the telautograph, the
writing AID picture telegraph intro
duced in the United States at the time
Of the Worlds fair in 1898 and after
ward in New York. 1t is now announc-
ed that the telautograph is at length
to be put on the market as a practical
machine" says the New York Post 1t
is said that actual tests made between
London and Paris under the direction
Of the English and French postal au-
thorities have established the applica-
bility Of the device to long circuits,
while messages sent from one room to
another have passed through coils over
200 miles in length, being recorded
with perfect accuracy at the receiving
end ia the handwriting of the sender.
No skilled operator is required, the
transmitting pencil being moved by the
writer OF the message, which is stimuli

inventors have long been at work. FCt
the Instruments first exhibited four
wires were required. The perfected in
strument, it Is said. is much simpler
than the old one is more accurate and
can be manufactured much cheaper.
1t is asserted that while the efficiency
of the telautograph for long distance
service has been demonstrated by tests
over an ordinary telegraph wire be
tween Chicago and Cleveland. dis
lance of 431 miles. it is not intended to
make such service a prominent feature
of the Instruments use in the United
States. In connection with the tele-
phone it will be an adjunct to the tele-
graph for local service and Will effect
a great saving of time. Now II man

it has to be sent first to the main office
in New York, be again written out and
then be retransmitted. At the other
end, unless the receiver of the message
happens to have his address near the
main Office, the same process has to be
repeated. With the telautOgraph at

WE LOOTED, TOO.
Chaffee Seems TO Have Got His Share of
Chinese Spells.

A special to the New York Times
from Washington says: The Ameri-
can share of the loot at Tien Tsin is
larger than at first reported. 1t had
been understood that all the Ameri-
cans took after the capture of Tien
Tsin was gold amounting in value to
S27S, 600. This report arose from the
fact that Ii Hung Chang asked Gener-
al Chatfee TO restore that amount to
the Chinese government 1t now APP
pears that this $27S,000 was only the
value of gold coin and gold bars taken
in Chinese treasury at Tien Tsin and
apparently it was only the money TAX
en- from the treasury which concerned
Earl Ii as a government official.
Things of value were also taken
from other sources, and it is now re
ported that the total value of the loot
will reach a figure about 100000 in
excess of the amount originally re-
ported. The gold coin and bars taken
from the treasury were melted by the
order of General Chaffee. Nothing is
yet known about similar seizures in
Pekin or at points along the march.
The total value of the seizures will
probably be very high.
Ii Hung Chang's request for S27S,-
900 taken from the treasury has re-
ceived no reply.
