Az Ocean Race Of Warships,

SON0@ - SaDbRSe
The ships Of the North Atlantic
Squadron have recently engaged
in a long-distance speed contest in
the open sea. The naval regula-
tons provide that new ships shall
be speeded at their utmost at IN
~tervals. An opportunity present
ed itself a week ago, when the
ships of the squadron we're being
assembled for the winter naval
maneuvers. Under orders of the
Navy Department, five of the ships
lined up for a run from Hampton
Roads on Saturday, Nov. 1.-THE
Alabama" "Kearsarge," "Mass-
achusetts," "Indiana." and the
"Machias." This squadron in
cluded some of the oldest and new
est battleships in the American
navy. Thirty-fve miles behind
the vessels as they passed the
Virginia capes followed the pro-
tected cruiser Cincinnati" Speed
Ter and lighter as she is, the 35
miles were for her a fair handicap.
almost from the time the starting
gun was fired and the ships head
ed for Culebra, the "Alabama''
forged ahead. So far as the bat
tleships we're concerned, it was a
race between the alabama" and
"Kearsarge," the products of two
rival shipyards, The "Alabama's"
superiority vas soon demonstrated.
In the first two hours she ran away
from her rival. and four hours
from the start, just before twilight,
she left the "Kearsarge" hull
down astern. The massachusetts"
kept up surprisingly well, and
proved a far stronger competitor
to the alabama" than the newer
"Kearsarge." But before night
the older ship was also left behind.
At sunset on Monday, when all
the battleships had long been dis
tanced, the "Cincinnati' Was sight
ed. She had made up her handi-
cap and was fast catching up to
the alabama" The two ships
were pushed their utmost all day
Monday and on Tuesday aud
Wednesday. When the Culebra
Light was reached, the "Alabama'
was under forced draft two miles
astern of the cruiser. The "Kear-
SARGE" "Massachusetts ""Indiana'
and "Machias'' we're not In sight.
During the run the alabama
had steamed eight hours at full
speed under natural draft and had
averaged 1872 knots. Her aver
age speed under forced draft for
four hours was 1866 knots. On
her official trial trip the "Alaba-
ma" made 17.1O3 knots under for.
ced draft. The "Kearsarge" dur.
ing he: builders trial in Septem-
Der, 1899, was credited with l7.25
knots under forced draft; but her
official average for four hours on
her government trial was 1886
knots. The "Cincinnati," which
was built in New York Navy Yard
by the government and launched
in 1894, made a record of IT'S
knots on her speed trial. In 1896
the Massachusetts" made a run
of 1921 knots an hour. A year
ago both the "Massachusetts' and
"Alapama" we're tried over the
Barren Island course at Chesa-
peake Bay. with assisted draft in
stead of forced draft. Both ships
recorded Is and l6 knots an hour.

Before ad%journing the Brown County
Educational Association unanimously
adopted the following resolutions:
I'VE earnestly regret the retire
ment of Superintendent Hartranft.
ou. able aud earnest superintendent
of schools during the last four years.
During his administration the schools
OF Brown county have obtained high
place educatiGnally. His genial dis
position and strong personality have
been powerful factors in elevating,
uplifting and upbuilding the educa-
t;onal interests of our county.
I'VE congratulate the board of re-
gents upon their selection of Superin-
tendant Hartranft as professor of
h:Stnr: and literature in the Northern
Normal and Industrial School. His
work in the past is the best criter on
of his future life work. The teachers
of Brown county wish him God speed
in his new relation.
Resolved. that we. the teachers OF
Brown county make a greater effort
each year TO be present at the meet
ing OF the association and to get
good and dc good. That be it further
Resolved, that we extend our
thanks to the officers of the association
and to those who have helped omake
this meeting a successful and inspir-
ing n
Resolved. tina. the executive com.
mittee of this association be requested
to provide for an evening lecture for
the next session, to which all but ac-
tive members OF the association shall
be charged an admission fee.
Resolved. that this association

coal fields under IL management.
This in the face of the fact that a
half dozen or more antitrust bills
have been already introduced during
the present session of Congress
Perhaps no man in the country has
less faith in the efficacy of antitrust
legistion than Mr.. Morgan. He has a
great work TO do and he is going to go
ahead and do it without serious inter-
ference on the part of those who
might assume tuarreSt the inevitable.
With the genius of Morgan for tinanc-
ing and of Baer for protecting the
details of operating the coal industry,
the business can be SO compactly or
ganized and so successfully operated
that the people will be strongly
tempted to change the private mon
opoly to a public Il some day.
