local inquiry at $26. 20 to s26 35, at which
figure the market closed very strong for
spot goods. The rest of the general LIST

FAILED TO MAKE THE SPEED.
GunbOat Perry Not Able to Reach
Tventy-Nine Knots

Long was informed today that the torpe-
do boat Perry, built by the Union Iron
Works of San Francisco, failed to meet
contract speed requirements en- her recent
official trial Under the contract the yes
sci was required to develop a speed of
twenty-nine knots an hour, but the best
she could do on her trial run was 2S 2
knots an hour.
The failure to make the full speed re-
CURED twenty knots--will not re-
suit in the rejection of the ship, as the
contract provldes a penalty for deficiency
ty-eight knots. The boat will therefore
be accepted, the price being $259, 600, in
stead of the full contract price of $685.
