STARTLING REPORT ABOUT NAVY
Found Defect in Maneuvering, Admir-
ais Dewey and TaYlor say.

Washington. Feb. 16.-Admiral
Dewey and Rear Admiral Taylor have
brought back from the caribbean sea
maneuvers the startling proposition
that the finest vessels Of the navy are
defective in Il maneuvering quality to
degree which would place them at
a grave disadvantage in an emergency
calling for prompt response to the
steering wheel The matter has been
considered sufficiently important to
be taken up by the naval general
board. The supposed defect comes
from the use Of the so-called outboard
screw propellers. which in operation
turned overland away from the yes
sci. 1t was alleged that inboard screws
or propellers turning in an opposite
direction OF overland toward the YES
sci. would probably accelerate the
swinging of a vessel in answer to it's
rudder Theoretically, and the theory
is the general boards strong suit. the
difference seemed to be considerable
but practically Rear Admiral Melville
believes there is no difference
However. the officers who came back
from the Caribbean with this notion
are inclined to regard the situation as
serious to the cripplng our fighting
ships and demonstrating fatal weak
ness.
Admiral Taylor. who is greatly ex
cited over the question, as he is over
everything which may effect the eth
cheney Of the fighting units Of the
navy, is devoting himself studiously tC
devise the way out Of the difficulty
and the general board, which takes
everything seriously, including itself
is wrought TO a high pitch Of anima
tion over the problem, which IL re
CARDS as one of the weightiest eve
confronting the service and one whicl
ought to be studied by the Newpor
war college.

Indian Proverbs.

A short installment OF Charles Glib
sons Indian proverbs from .he Eu-
faula Journal:
Women should not talk at council
because they are women and not men.
II the Great Spirit had intended for
women to go to battle and make
speeches, He would have made them
all men.
An Indian can hear better from the
front, his ears being set further in
front than in any other race A negro
hears better from the rear on account
OF his ears being set back further than
in any other race A white man can
hear from any direction on account Of
his ears being placed in the center OF
his head.
The white man and Indian both
work in a field The white man. as
soon as he bitches up his team to a
plow, begins stating what a pile OF
money he will make at the gathering
season and forgets his WEAKNESS til
night. The Indian runs to the house
after a drink OF water or to see how
his arrows are seasoning all day long
letting his team rest The negro gets
more rest than either having more
sense than the others. He keeps quie
and rests his mind and body until h,
see the boss. who he is always lool,inl
for when not asleep.
