LAUNCH OF A DRY DOCK.
Three Torpedo Boat Destroyers Will
Also Bc Given to the Water.


The largest launch OF government vessels
in the history OF the country will take place
at Baltimore on the 18th instant. II will
include the big steel floating dry dock which
is to be stationed at AIglers, La. and the
thirty-knot torpedo boat destroyers Whip
pie. Truxton and worden.
The dry dock will be the biggest In the
world and will cost $4,000. The task of
towing II through the Atlantic and the
gulf will be a mighty one. The start will
be made, II is understood, early In Septem-
Der. The destroyers will be the largest and
swiftest of their class in the navy.
Each is 24s feet long and registers ABB
tons. They will have two sets of quadruple
expansion engines and will show four fun
nels. The two coming towers on deck will
be armored with three-quarter-inch nickel
steel
The engines are protected only by the
coal bunkers. which extend 100 feet amid
ships on either side, and which have ca
pacfty for $50 tons Of coal-sufficient to
provide a speed of fourteen miles an hour
for 1000 miles. The outer hull Is of half
inch steel plates. The vessels. however, are
built with twelve separate water-tight COM
partments Accommodations are provided
for crew of eighty officers and men. The
ships present the innovation Of having the
officers quarters forward and those Of the
crew aft.
he engines, WHICH are eXpeCteO 10 give
the vessels a speed of Sthirty knots per
hour are of S.4O0 horse power and Of the
four cylinder type
The so-called turtle-back protection from
seas runs from the stem, intersecting the
coming towers and extending In the form
of bulwark twenty feet abaft the towers
A clever device of the vessels is an ar
rangement of telescoping masts mounted
on the forward bridge, to which the search
light Is fixed. These masts can be shot up
in a second and as quickly lowered.
The armament of the vessels will consist
OF four fourteen-pOunder three-inch rapid
fire guns and three sfx-pounders. The two
eighteen-inch torpedo tubes are located In
the stern, one forward and one aft OF the
after coming tower. The after one will be
used to discharge the torpedo when the
vessel Is swinging away from the object of
attack, and the forward one will be more
for a broadside fire. Two spare torpedoes
will be stored in water-tight cases with
water-tight covers, one on each side of the
deck, located so that they can be lifted by
cranes to the torpedo tubes directly from
the cases.

Facts Regarding Gen. Uribe's Voyage
Being Brought Out.

Facts Regarding Gen. Tribes Voyage
Being Brought Out.
An interesting feature in connection with
the voyage of General Uribe Tribe, the
Colombian revolutionist, is brought out in
advices received at the Colombian legation
here. Earlier reports Of the generals trip
contained the statement that he had made
the voyage from Laguira to Maracaibo in
a Venezuelan gunboat, thus inferentially
duplicating the government Of the latter
country in giving assistance to General
Uribe's movements against Colombia 1t
is shown that, as matter Of fact, the trip
between the two places named actually
was made in merchant vessel, which was
subsequently purchased by the Venezuelan
government and converted into a gunboat.
The officials regard this development as
significant, as it disposes of what other
wise might have been regarded as an un-
friendly act on the part of Venezuela in
facilitating the revolutionary movement
against Colombia.

Future of the Vermont.

Tho Navy Department has not yet de-
cided what to do eventually with the re-
ceiving ship Vermont, which was pro-
nounced insanitary. and which has been
temporarily replaced by the cruiser Co.
lumbia. Some Of the officers at the de-
partment believe that the Vermont is a rot
ten old hulk and should be either broken
up or sold, while others are of the opinion
that she could be renovated and eventually
restored for duty as a training ship. The
department has received offer from a
firm in New York, which guarantees to
thoroughly fumigate the ship, but no action
has yet been taken
