to This Conclusion in Re-
GARD to Galveston.
nv Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 2o.--After
further consideration OF the question:,
Acting Secretary Darling has decided
that tho work Of completing the cruiser
Galveston shall be done at the Norfolk
navy yard. This vessel was under con-
struction at the ship yard Of Trtgg e
Co., at Richmond. Va. and was about
two-:hrds finished when the company
failed. a
The Navy Department considered tha
expediency Of re-letting the contract tor
the compilation of the vessel, and also
the ACCESSIBILITY Of doing the work Itself
at Richmond at the expense OF tho sure
ties of the contractors, but finally botn
plans we're rejected III favor OF having
the work done at the Norfolk navy yard yard.
Orders to that effect have now been
Issued. The only obstruction TO the re-
moval OF the vessel from Richmond was
the lack Of water near the ship Yard
and to obvlate that difficulty 1t VIII ne
necessary by the use OF locks, ETC. 20
create a basin at the yard into which the
warship can be safely launched ana
transferred to the channel OF the river
The work will be done as soon as pos
sibie. as 1t is desired to complete tne'
