RUSSIA'S WARSHIPS
TO BE BUILT AT HOME


NEW YORK. Nov. 1s-The Herald pub
fishes today the following from its Wash
ington correspondent: Count Cassfni,
Russian ambassador. expresses the opin..
ion that Joseph Spencer Kennard, one OF
the commissioners to the Paris exposition.
must be mistaken in his assertion that
Russia proposes to place contracts In the
United States for the construction OF five
battleships.
Russia Is highly eratified with the sue
cessfuI performance of the cruiser Varfag
and the work done in the construction 81
the battleshfp Retvizan,' the count said.
They are splendid examples of American
workmanship, but the advices have
show that the government has entered
upon policy of economy. and that II has
made arrangements for constructing such
vessels as are to be built in the near fu-
ture at the government yards in Russia"
No negotiations are IN progress with the
Cramps for any additional Russian bat
tleships. Ohicials of the embassy believe
the satisfactory execution OF constructs
for Russian vessels Will result in the con-
struction of more Of the cars warships
In the United States as soon as the strin-
gency In the Russian money market dis
appears.
