Objects to Virginia Turret.

The admiral also denounces the su-
perposed turret of the Virginia class.
He says:
From my point of view I consider
the superposed turret q dead issue I
never expect to see any more vessels
built which include such features. and I
think il a misfortune that the Virginia
class are to carry them. I have always
been opposed to the superposed turret
as unmilitary and as a thoroughly bad
form Of construction
Gums installed singly will always do
better work than guns closely grouped,
though questions of weight and space
render it necessary. or at least advisa-
bic. to install the heavy guns or ship
board in pairs. in turrets. but not in
fours. as IN tn. case with the super
posed tUrret.''
III conclusion Admiral O'NeiI declares
his friendship for Admirals bradford
and Melville and says that any fault he
has found with the type Of vessel they
favor is not on personal grounds.
Admiral Bowles' statement has to do
chiefly with RECITATION of the conclusion
OF Admirals Bradford and Melville that
the 1S.O00-ton battleships of the Idaho
class are lacking IN coal supply and "a
dius OF action. He declares the Idaho
to have greater coal endurance than any
vessel yet designed. and gives figures
showing 1t TO excel in this respect the
modified Maine type, which IS favored
by Admirals Bradford and Melville.

A Viennese newspaper prints an arti-
Gle by an American" named Baumfeld.

why not ripe" for .'Parsifal2" Has any

DISCUSSION OF ARMAMENT
Champion Of the Heavy Type Issues
Statement, Supported by Ad-
miral Bowles.
DISCUSSION OF ARMAMENT

Rear Admirals O'Neil and Bowles is
sued statements yesterday afternoon in
defense OF their contention that 1900
ton battleships should be equipped with
armor and armament which will make 1t
possible for them to cope with 16,OO0-ton
battleships.
These statements are in the nature Of
replies TO the utterances Of Rear Ad-
nirals Melville and Bradford. who in
sist that armor and armament must be
sacrificed to give the 10 .000-ton battle
ships speed enough TO enable them to
become effective factors in a feet OF bat
tleships of 10000 tons displacement
Admiral O'Neu discusses the plans
for the 1s,OOO-ton battleships as fol-
lows: Il do not think our battle
ships should be given speed for
the purpose of running away, and the
1S,000-tOn ships proposed by the board
would not have TO run away from the
16,0O0-ton ships, supposing them to be-
long TO an enemy. AS the latter carry
but two Finch guns more than the
former, their batteries being equal In
other respects, the vessels so nearly
equal in gun power could we'll afford 20
try conclusions with the larger ships.
All United States vessels are more
heavily armed-type for type-than for
eign ships, and am confident that none
OF our ships will have to run away from
any foreign vessels Of similar class.
NO single ship, no matter how pow
erful she may be, can be expected TO
successfully cope with a feet, and
therefore should not be subject to such
a contingency"

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO. Feb. 14-There was com
paratively little trading in wheat and
prices kept within a range OF "a cent.
There was d little speculative support
around yesterdays closing which serv-
ed 20 keep the range at or above that
figure. Failure in the foreign markets
TO entirely respond to our weakness yes
Jerday was the chief help
The extreme cold weather Northwest
also counted slightly In favor OF prices
Tor time but its effect was lost
after the Official prediction was given
out Of general rains or snow tomorrow
in the winter wheat belt Although some
inquiry was reported at New York from
the Continent no business was closed.
The trade expects very light decrease
in the visible supply
The worlds shipments for the week
are expected TO aggregate about 5000 -
600 bushels and Northwest receipts for
the week were 2,5Sg cars, against .O69
cars last week. and 1889 cars the cor
responding week last year
There was fairly important spec1la-
tive selling in corn and the market was
easier. A break of Ia in the March
price at New York encouraged the soil
inS. as IL was reported that much OF
the delayed corn was arriving there
ihe provision crowd was prominent
on the selling side.
There was further weakness in oats
although the close showed only sIfghf
net loss as compared with Yesterdays

quantities OF standard grades that
were being termed out by private eIeva-
tors. The aggregate has been go. 900

PROVISIONS were higher all around and

Prices OF hogs at the yards were at the
highest point of the season and showed
an advance Of 20 10 cents over the
previous day The receipts there were
also less than expected. There was a

OF the selling of the day was in the way
