the Parisians, on waking, found the
stars and stripes floating from the pin

The location of the monument is with

The Report on the Kentucky.

Washington, July 4.-The report of the
naval trial board on the battleship Ken
tueky, just submitted to the navy de-
partment, shows that the ship was gem
orally in excellent condition. There was
some fault found with the electrical fir
ing appliances of one turret, which pre-
vented simultaneous firing of the four
guns therein, but the other turrst ap-
pliances worked perfectly. The board
holds that the period of time allowed
between the commissioning of ship
and the final acceptance trial is too short
to fully develop the needs of the ship.
