Washington. December 7.-Blls
wore opened at the navy depart
ment for the construction of fivo now
battleships and six armorod cruisers
aggregating total displacement Of
l04,000 tons, aud comprising the
largest consignment of material for
tho navy ever contracted for at q
single bidding. The three BATTLE
ships authorized by tho act of March,
1899, were never contracted for,
owing the delay in the procurement
of armor bids.
The five now battleships, namely,
the Ponnylvania, Now Jersey, Geor-
gia, Virginia and Rhode Island, arc
divided into two class to compromise
upon the controversy as to their tur
ret systems. Three arc to be
sheathed and coppered and will carry
superimposed turrets; tho other two
are to unshonthed vessels, having the
"quadrilateral arrangement of s.
inch turets. To meet the contin-
gency with bids made in excess of
the authorized cost the bidders were,
however, invited to submit plans in
each case for both sheathed and un.
sheathed ships.
Tho sheathcd vessels are to be of
$4,000 tons displacement, with n
length 1876 feet, breadth of 7G feet
10 inches, and greatest draught of rs
feet. The unsheathed ships arc
slightly smaller and Of the same
length, are 7 IL inches narrower
and 400 tons less displacement. Both
classes of battleships will compare
with any in tho world, not only
afloat, but projectod; for they will
have speed of at least 10 knots,
which is expected to run up to 10 u,
great pace for a battleship, which
will bo maintained by twin screw en-
gines Of $4,000 horse power, supplied
by ~ water tube boilers.
ARMAMENT OF TIE SHIPS.
The radical difference in the bat
t}eships to the outward appearance
will lie in turrets. Each ship will
carry four l2.inch guns. Those are
of tho extraordinary length Of 40
calibers or 20 feet in the bore of the
new typo just turned out by the ord
nance burean and superior IN eff
cioncy to any 12~inch gun in the
world. and at least equal to the 13

The reason for declaring the joint de-
bates of is not stated. Many explana-
lions are offered, but 1t is believed thnt
the voices of the two candidates have
become affected. thereby rendering q
continuation of the meetings out Of the
question. 1t IS thought now that the
meetings were scheduled too close to-
gcther and should have been arranged
to take place every other day. the daily
debates crowding the speakers so that
they have become exhausted. NJ.
White telegraphed that he will arrive
in this city tomorrow noon. and will
attend n meeting II 1t Is held In the
wigwam. but cannot make set speech.
1t Is inferred from that telegram that
his voice is in bad condition, and
needs rest. The Republican commits
tee Will arrange to hold the meeting to-
morrow night anyhow. so that the
crowd that comes into the city VIII not
be disappointed.

QUAY d. WILLIFoRD DEAD.

A Prominent Young Business Man.
It is our painful duty to record the
death of Mr.. Quay D. Williford, one
Of the most. prominent business men
of the community. He had been
seriously i'll about ten days, and died
about eight o'clock on Thursday MORN
ing.
Mr.. Williford was born on the 3Oth
of March, 1867, and was the youngest
son of Mr.. and Mrs. a. Williford.
Preparatory to bis business career be

at Louisville, KY, and began business
with his brother, the late w. q. Will.

j W1fffllfoTd & 20. Mr.. ". q. WiIIf'
| ford withdrew, and Mr.. @. D. Wilt
ford continued in his own account
with remarkable success. In 1898, he
! was forced to make an assignment on
| account of liabilities as an endorser.
He then became manager for his
| brother-in.law, Mr.. j. L. Mimnaugh
| of Columbia, until January. 1897,
when he resumed business in his own
| name. Though young man he pos
| sessed remarkable executive abilities
| and fine business qualities. He seemed
peculiarly fitted for the mercantile
business and had built up a large
business. His store was always filled
with salable goods, and at the time Of
his death his stock was perhaps the
largest stock of dry goods ever
brought to Wlnnsboro. Few men in
Winnsboro have been more successful
in business He was progressive, con"
stantly adding improvements. He
will be missed in the business affairs
of our community.
In 1898, Mr.. Williford married Miss
