TO COnHISSION THE KE4RsARGE.

FEBRUARY 20 SET AS THE DATE, THOUGH
THE BATTLEsHIP IS NOT FINISHED.
Washington, Jan. % Especially The Navy Depart
nnent has fixed February 20 the date when the
new battleship Kearsarge is to go into commission
with 4 fun complement Of officers and men. The
vessel is not yet out OF the hands OF her builders
although accepted by the Government after a
cessfu trGl at sea. and. while it has been regarded
contrary to good policy to commission a vessel
until she IS actually finished the officials Of the
Navy Department satisfied in the present in
stance that departure from precedent is apt to
expedite the completion Of the numerous small jobs
that now continue with such exasperating delIber-
alton.
According TO contract. the Kearsarge should
have been completed on January 2. 1893. She is
row than year overdue, and at the present
rate OF progress would not be reaAy for sea in
less than six months We're not radical steps taken
to get the workmen out OF the ship TO make room
for the officers and crew. The Department is par
tcularly anxious just now 70 test her superimposed
two story turrets. that type. II successful,

MR.. MDoNALD's STATEMENT.
John B. Mcdonald said:

1t is true that the negotiations between the surety
companies and myself have not advanced as we'll
and smoothly l had anticipated. In consider
alton of the large amount for which they are to
bond me, believe that they should make a special
rate that would be lower than for amount very
much smaller This is point Of difference. BY
their terms now would have tC pay 500 900 a year
for my own bonds. and the fees for the bonds for
the sub-contractOTs would amount TO q great deal
more in this for love, but for business
and want to have some of the profit for myself
However, I certain that the whole affair will
be amicably adjusted before long. President Orr
has given to the days extension of time
provided for by resolution of the Board. 1 thought
first that would not need this extra time but
the complica tons that have the surety
companies have made Il necessary. l am very busy
working 10 bring about adjustment. but
hope to have things all settled in few days from
W.

him in forming the construction company. It is
reported that overtures may be made TO Andrew
OnderdonlS. at present partner Of Mr.. E1cDOn-
aid in the Jerome Park Reservoir contract. and

invitation had yet come TO them TO join Mr.. Nc
Donald That syndicate is prepared to carry
out its bid il Mr.. Mcdonald should fail, and will
