WORLDS LARGEST GUN.
Government win Have il Ready tor Eshl-
billion In 1903.

Special to the Leader. &
washington, d. c.. July S.-The
management of the ePan-American expo
sition will be disappointed in its hope
of securing the great 16-inch rifle
which is being manufactured for the
government, and which is intended to
become a part of the coast defense ar
mament This big gun has cost the
United States about half million of
dollars thus far, and it is so far from
completion that it is not expected that
it can be exhibited before another year
has passed. 1t has been suggested, in
consequence, that it would form a
most interesting exhibit for the st.
Louis Exposition in 1903. as it will
probably be mounted by that time and
ready for transportation.
The castings for the gun are COM
plete. but it's breech mechanism has not
been fininshed, nor has the immediate
gun carriage on which it is to be
mounted. In-19O3 the gun will be full
" completed, and it is expected then.
as now, it will be the largest gun in
the world. 1t will have range OF
more than twenty-five miles and its de-
structive ability can hardly be estimat-
ed. 1t is indicated, however, by the
fact that the skilled gunners of the
United States artillery believe any well
directed shot from the great gun would
entirely demolish the largest fighting
ship Of hostile navy which might at
tempt to enter port which it defends.

Lima, o., July 8.--John Polling, a
young farmer, living west of this city,
was fatally injured at his farm yester-
day. The crop of hay was being har-
vested and Polling was riding on top
of load to the barn when he slipped
off and fell to the ground head first.
His back was broken, it is thought and
he died in half an hour.
Madison Mitchell, another young far
mer, living near Poling's home, was al
so fatally hurt, he being kicked by one
of team of horses which he was lead
ing to the barn last evening. One of
the animals suddenly turned around
and kicked him in the abdomen. He
lived about 35 minutes.

Farm Hands Demands.

Special to the Leader.
Tiffin, o., July 3.-Farmers in Seneca
county are finding great difficulty in
securing laborers this summer. Some
farms are being worked light handed.
In some cases $2 per day and board
have been offered during the haying
season. A good farm hand can easily
get $40 per month for the eight months
beginning April l. This is good wages
as it includes board and washing. A
good farm hand can lay up more than
a hundred dollars a year and need
not be parsimonious, either.
$1,000 will be paid to anyone who
produces as good an all-round life saw
er as Rocky Mountain Tea made by
Madison Medicine Company.

pNIded eoard in sehIey case.


The board of inquiry in the Schley case
rendered its report Friday. The finding
OF the board is adverse to Schley. The
testimony is carefully reviewed and judg-
ment given as follows ;-Schley should
have proceeded with the utmost despatch
TO Cienfuegos and maintained a close
blockade there; he should have en-
deavored to find out by communicating
with the insurgents if the Spanish fleet
were inside before he actually did so; he
should have hastened to Santiago IN
squadron order; he should not have de-
layed on the way because OF the Eagle; he
should not have made the retrograde
movement westward; he should have
promptly obeyed the navy departments
order TO invest Santiago; he should have
endeavored to destroy the Spanish yes
sells as they lay at the harbor's mouth; be
did not attack the Colon determinedly;
the sloop" OF the Brooklyn was made for
the purpose OF avoiding the enemy and the
course taken endangered the Texas; his
action in regard TO the publication OF the
correspondence with Lieut.. Hodgson re-
lating to the eolloquy between them was
unjust TO Hodgson; his conduct during
his command Of the Flying Squadron was
characterized by ''vacillation, dilatoriness
and lack OF enterprise" his reports con-
cerning the coal supplies were "inaccu-
rate and misleading; p his conduct during
the battle was "self- possessed, and IN has
person he encouraged his men to hight
courageously.n To this report, Admiral
Dewey, one Of the three members Of the
board. appended statement in which he
saws that Schley bloekaded Cienfuegos and
Santiago effectively, made the passage as
quickly as ne could considering the con-
ditions. and that, being senior officer OF
the squadron during the battle and IN aD-
solute command, he sis entitled to the
credit due such commanding officer for
the glorious victory Whether Dewey
agrees with the majority on any of the
points as found he will not say. The ma
ture OF the report has caused deepening
Of the bitterness. Schley has asked Sec
retary Long not to approve OF the report
until he can file objections. Several reso-
lutions have been introduced in Congress
in support of Schley. Historian Maclay,
whose criticism OF Schley caused the in
quiry. SAYS he will not remove the oblec-
tionable passages from his book.
