ONLY FOUR BIDDERS.
Contracts viii Co to Newport News, Bath
Works and Neafie & Levy.

Washington, Feb. 4.-Bids for the
construction of three protected cruisers
were opened at the navy department
today.
The attendance of bidders was neither
as large nor as representative as in the
case of the last opening. 1t is doubt
full if the Cramps or the Union Iron
Works have been unrepresented before
in any bidding since the birth OF the
new navy" One of the Moran Bros,
of Seattle, was the solitary representa-
tive of the Pacific coast interests, but
did not bid. There were only four
bids in all.
The first bid opened was that OF the
Newport News Shipbuilding Company.
They offered to. build a $500 ton
cruiser with speed of % knots IN SO
months for So, TAI 900. The Bath Iron
Works offered to build cruiser of the
same proportions for So, 100000. The
William r. Txigg Company, OF Rich
mond, offerd to build one cruiser for
81, 780, 200, being the limit of cost
fixed by congress, or two cruisers for
Vos1Oosooo. 4Ao las1 Ulu WAS bu0
lowest, and was submitted by the
Neafie & Levy Shipbuilding Company,
of Philadelphia. 1t offered to build
cruiser on the departments plan in SO
months for So, ,74O,0O0.
These cruisers are designed to be the
most formidable vessels in the world of
their class. They will resemble close
ly the type of second-class armored
cruisers and might be easily mistaken
for such. The act OF congress author
izing this class of cruisers states that
the vessels should carry ''the most
powerful ordnance for vessels of their
type. and have the highest speed COM
patible with good cruising qualities
and great radius of action" Admiral
Hichborn. chief constructor OF the
navy, who has been foremost in the
preparation of plans for the building of
the "new navy" says that in an en-.
gagement the new cruisers would be
able to cope with and prove more than
match for some of the armored cruis-
ers of foreign navies.
The new vessels are to be named
the st. Louis, the Milwaukee and the
Charleston, the last to continue the
name of the ship wrecked November 2,
1899, in the Philippines.

plete their work by February %, when
the commissioners and practically all
the employees will leave for the south

THE NEW YORK FIRE.
Caused by an Explosion of Chemical. in the
Wicke Factory.

New York. Feb. 4.-The extent Of
the destruction wrought by the confla.
grafton which destroyed nearly a
whole block of buildings at Thirty
first street and First avenue last night
could be better appreciated this morn
ing. The huge factory of the William
Wicke Company was almost level with
the ground. Contractor Joseph Cody,
of the building department., with a
force of 100 men, had labored at the
ruins all night pulling down dangerous
sections OF the walls.
: Other property destroyed was the
six-story building, numbers 404, 4O6
and 40S East Thirty second street; the
fivesstory tenement at 546 and 54S First
avenue the five story tenement at 462
East Thirty first street; Jackson's iron
foundry and two story brick building
on Thirty-f1rst street. occupied by the
Swift Dressed Beef Company. About
70 families were rendered homeless by
the burning of the tenements.
Fire Chief Croker said today he be-
heved the fire was caused by an explo-
sion of chemicals in the Wicke fac
tory. He was Informed that watch
man had gone into the vault in the
cellar with a light and that thu vault
contained the explosives. The chief
added that he did not know what had
become of the watchman or who he is.
He said the explosion that started the
conf1agration might have been caused
by Illuminating gas getting into the
cellar from the gas main, but he did
not think this was the case.
Policemen Thomas ]. Fitzpatrick
and John B. McMullin, who were on
duty at the fire, are reported missing
today.
