Estes Park, Colorado, one of the
many Meccas for the tourists in that
picturesque State, bears upon its face
some rather singular mementoes of a
visit some years ago from General
Funston. They show that the man of

Estes Park is a beautiful spot, and
the General, who is an enthusiast upon
natural scenery, found every prospect

STEEL DRY DOCK AT CAVITE.
Bid of the Maryland Steel Company
Will Probably Be Accepted.


Bids have been opened at the Navy De-
partment for the construction Of a large
steel floating drydock for the naval station
at Cavite. Philippine Islands. The Mary
land Steel Company of Maryland was the
lowest bidder, and will probably get the
contract. This dock is to be the largest Of
its kind in the world.
The Maryland company bid $1,Os5, 600 for
the Philippine dock complete. The other
bidders were the United States Shipbulding
Company Of Jersey City 81 ,443 600. and the
Chauncey N. Dutton Company Of New York,
81, 1O5. 900.
The big dock will be an open-hearth steel
structure, so designed as to be readily self
docking without the aid Of divers or aux
iliary machinery and, capable Of being towed
from place to place without auxiliary brac-
ing. Its length will be not less than 500
feet over all. and It will have a clear width
between its tenders Of not less than 100
less than feet Of clear height above the
water. with 3O-feet draft over 4-foot keel
blocks. The dock will have a lifting capa-
city Of not less than 10000 tons, uniformly
distributed over it's entire length, with the
main deck not less than two feet above the
water and with not less than 1 foot of water
in the compartments. No part of the dock
or its connections will have stress of more
than 10000 pounds per square inch under
the specified loads or Of 1900 pounds per
square inch in self docking. The appropria-
ton now available for the construction Of
this dock is 81 ,225, Geo.
The great need for large floating dry
dock in the waters Of the Philippines has
been evident to the Navy Department for
some time. Now the larger ships Of the
Asiatic fleet have to go to Hongkong or
Shanghai, and even to Nagasaki, Japan, to
be cleaned or repaired.

MAINTAINING QUARANTINE.
Suggestion by Commissioner West to
Health Officer Woodward,

In passing upon the reports of Superin-
tendant Stoutenburgh Of the Washington
Asylum, and DR.. Woodward, the District
health officer, concerning the escape of
smallpox suspect from the almshouse,
Commissioner West has stated:
when on the 21st of February last, the
presence Of smallpox at the Washington
Asylum was reported to me, directed In
tendant Stoutenburgh to take all possible
precautions against the spread Of the con-
tagion, and to isolate and place under med
ical surveillance the persons who had come
in contact with the victims Of the disease.
TT is quite evident, however, from the
reports made, that the quarantine which
was directed was not effective but con-
ficting statements are made by the intend
ant of the asylum and, the health officer as
to the responsibility for the maintenance Of
the quarantine. In fact, DR.. Woodwards
report shows that nothing was said on
either side as to whether the almshouse
authorities or the health department should
be responsible.
AS through this lack of a definite I'M
derstanding a smallpox suspect was en-
abied to make his escape, and is still at
large, recommend that in like circum
stances hereafter the health officer be d.
rected when he establishes a quarantine at
the Washington Asylum to maintain 1t
with watchmen, who are under his per-
sonal direction, and who will be RESPONSE
BILE to him for any laXity on their part.
The facts in connection with the escape of
a smallpox suspect show a condition of
affairs which ought not to be repeated, and
1t is the purpose Of this recommendation
to place the responsibility definitely and
to prevent like occurrence in the future"
