practice for the ships arriving here after
dark to come directly TO the dock and be
visited by the health officer and immi-
grant inspectors at once. Since the case
OF small pox was brought into Portland
on one of thu English ships last season
and got by the health officers without
their knowledge, causing no end Of
trouble and much unfavorable criticism,
the health and Immigrant officers are not
so accommodating about making after
dark Inspections. The Vancouver dropped
anchor In the lower harbor and will come
up to her dock this morning at day
light. This is new departure for Port
land and is not regarded very pleasantly
by the steamship officials. 1t would In
dictate, however, that the health officers
do not wish to take too many chances
during the coming season and Will be far
more particular about little things than
ever before.

TWO FIRES.
They Were Caused BY Crossing OF Eiec-

An electric light wire became crossed
with a telegraph call wire yesterday fore
noon on Fore street ana caused no end OF
trohple. About a quarter to o'clock a
fire was discovered in Benefits Rubber
stamp factory on Fore street, near the
corner of Exchange, and an alarm turned
in from box Ash. The damage. was not
very large, the blaze being easily extin-
guished by the chemical. The insurance
was sufficient to cover the logs accustomed
by this blaze,
An hour later another fire was dis
covered In the Office of Fickett's paint
store, the next door aboye the Bennett
store. This was confined to the Office OF
the store and was blazing briskly when
the chemical engine arrived on still
alarm and extinguished the blaze. The
damage was small and the insurance
covers it. Either OF these fires with a
little more Roadway would have done an

10000 DOLLARS.

This is a large sum of money to be
saved in one single year. But if any one
cares to take the trouble to look it up
they will find that the same amount of
electricity used by the city and citizens
would have cost more than $4,000 the
previous year. Just think of enclosed
full arc lights for $50 go per year as
compared with half arcs at $500 each
the previous years. Then compare your
own power and light bills with the
previous years. This is what competi-
ton does. The new telephone company
will doubtless be of nearly as great adj
vantage to the public if allowed their
rights.

New York. June PA special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
The navy is to build warships aggre-
eating over $10o, 900, 900 in cost as soon
as the builders are prepared to under
take this great programme. which calls
for IL armored ships, practically doub-
ing the present American sea power in
this class, and for three highly improv-
ed Olympia type of cruisers. The five
battleships for whose hulls and machin-
cry congress has appropriated 81, 900, 600.
are ready for the builders to bid upon
tomorrow. Plans for the six great ar.
mored cruisers, more powerful than any
ship at present in service, and to cost
for hulls n machinery alone over
$25, OOO, 900. are we'll advanced and should
be finally approved next month. The
general features of the enlarged Olympia
type were determined last fall before
congress appropriated 81, 800, 900 for the
hull and machinery of each Of them, and
there is no reason why their keels shOuld
not be laid this summer. ~ .tHs# 81 4
The navy department is also prepar-
ing the specifications and advertise
ments for 5,OGv tons of the highest quail
ity of Kruppized armor, which is ex-
pected to cost between ST., OOO, 900 and

programme authorizes contracts for

ships at So, 600, 900 each, six cruisers at
81, 10000 each, and three improved
Olympias at 81, SOC, 900 each. +
The battleships known as the Penn
sylvania class are to be nearly 16, 900
tons displacement. or over 5000 tons
heavier than the Oregon, more than 100
feet longer and with at least three knots
higher speed. The six cruisers of the
California class of $4,000 tons, % knots
speed, and IS knots steaming radius, will
be unmatched in the world. They will
be 5000 tons larger han the BROOKLYN

This evening the famous investigation
of the Bozeman college is going up in
smoke. The three members of the COM
mitteee who are attending the investiga-
ton fnd absolutely nothing upon which
to rely in forming anything but a IA
vorable opinion of the college, its in
structors and those concerned in the
management of whatever effects the
school and it's work and pupils. From
What is now known it appears thu the
story told by E. v. Wilcox before the
board Of education at Helena was found
ed on a very great misunderstanding OF
the acts of the matter. He, it appears
warned the governor that there was trou-
BILE brewing at the college and unless
speedy reform was had the school would
be greatly damaged. The too willing ear
of the executive lent itself to the recep-
ton of this tale and he called Wilcox be-
fore the board without consulting the
