SACRIFICE SPEED TO POWER.
Naval Board Approves Designs for
New Cruisers.

Washington, Oct. 21.-The naval
board on construction yesterday final
ly decided on the features OF the ar.
mored cruisers authorized by the last
congress. Speed has been sacrificed in
q measure to power. By vote OF four
against one, Engineer-in- Chief Mel
ville's proposition to give the big ships
25,00O horse power and a speed OF
twenty-three knots at minimum was
rejected and the horse power viii
stand at $4,000, which, he estimates
will actually bring the speed down to
about twentyone and a half knots
The new boats therefore will be three
and one-half knots slower than the
four famous English armored cruis
ers OF the Drake class To offset this
lack OF speed the Tennessee will have
much more powerful battery. The
Tennessee class also will have more
armor The engineer-in.chief will
make minority report to Secretary
Moody, taking the ground that the in.
tent of congress has been evaded and
that the board has designed actual
battleships and not speedy armored
cruisers.

IRISH CONVENTION OPENS
United League Holds Its First
Session in Boston.
LEADERS ARE FULL OF HOPE.
Resolutions Are Adopted Arraigning
Policy of English Government-Dil.
Ion, Davtt and Other Leaders Dis.
cuss the Irish Cause.

Boston. Oct. 21.-A notable gather
ing OF leaders of International reputa.
tion, made remarkable the opening OF
the first convention of the United
Irish league in this city yesterday
Hon. bourke Cochran was chosen
temporary chairman Addressing the
convention. Mr.. Cochran said that an
appeal to arms by the Irich people
would be folly rather than patriotism,
but when the truth of the Irish ques.
tlon had become apparent to the world
an adjustment OF the difficulty would
be possible
The convention then organized
with John F. Finerty OF Chicago as
permanent chairman
The afternoon session was wildly
enthusiastic, especially during the
speeches OF John Dillon and Michael
Davltt, and the resolutions which
were introduced at the close of the
session were adopted amid cheers
They pledge the convention to undy.
Ing allegiance to Irelands cause, to
the right of the Irish race to carry on
the war against England by means OF
honorable weapons; assert the belief
that the leaders in Ireland are best
htted to direct and carry on this
contest, demand the arraignment OF
England at the bar of public opinion
through the dissemination of the facts
OF her rule; declare that the United
Irish league is the only menace to
England's rule in Ireland, and finally
urge upon the members of this country
to contribute literally to the cause.
John Dillon, one of the Irish en-
voys. prefaced his remarks by saying
that he was amazed a. the strength
OF the movement in America and the
success of the convention, both OF
which, he said, would give courage to
the brethren In ireland and coustarna
ton to her enemies. He said that the
league needed assistance in ireland
because the people there were dis
armed. because they were not allowed
free speech, free discussion in the
press, the liberty of public meeting
and, lastly, q trial by jury. This, he
said, is tyranny.
Mtcnael DaTltt, who was the next
speaker, said there were organized in
Ireland 1.302 branches, with an aver
age membership Of eighty which gives
a total membership of 10000. He
also said there were 100 branches In
England, Scotland and Wales.
Mr.. Davitt said that General Botha
had asked him how many Irishmer
came from America to fight for the
Beers and Mr.. Davitt said he was
ashamed to say that the number was
only forty. General Botha said tha,
if after Pardeburg 5000 had come
from America to help the Beers, the
power of England would have beer
smashed in South Africa.
Mr.. Davitt said he believed the
brethren in this country at that time
deserted the cause of Ireland in no.
fighting against England.
