Libel Suit 81 Years Old.

There is a libel case between the
postoff1ce authorities and the Times
standing unheard for nearly 100 years.
1t seems that in 1907 the Times bitter
ly attacked the postoffice. and the oc-
casion of its attack was as folio US: In
those days the postal authorities act
ed not merely as carriers of letters and
the like. but there was news agency
in connection with the department, and
this news agency charged the sum of
e1Q0 to each newspaper in the king
dom for the supply of a brief sum-
mary Of foreign news daily. In order
to encourage this side of their busi-
ness the heads of the postoftice of that
time conceived the brilliant notion of
delaying foreign newspapers in order
that their news service might not suf-
fer from competition. This went on
for a time until the Times got to hear
of it. and a bitter and not undeserv-
ed attack was the consequence. The
postoffice replied by the service of a
writ for libel. but the case was not
pressed further. No doubt someone in
high places had blundered, and it was
considered to be desirable to say moth
ing more about it. But the function Of
supplying the summary of news was
soon discontinued by the department.

What was the most exciting moment
you ever had on board torpedo boat? ?"
was asked of a sailor who had spent
much time in this sort of craft.
Il think the most exciting trip | ever
made was at the beginning of the Span
ish war. We were lying in Key West
in torpedo boat having an official speed
of twenty-eight and one-half knots. The
fleet was at Dry Tortugas, one hundred
miles away.
OFF TO THE WAR.
Zone night we received a dispatch
from Washington with instructions to
take it to the fleet as fast as steam
would carry us. Congress had passed
the joint resolution which opened the
war, and the feet was wanted at once at
Key West.
of we started through the night and
ran the one hundred miles at a speed
which | do not think the boat ever ex-
ceeded even on her trial trip. The course
lay over the open waters of the gulf
waters lumpy and Jolty-but we tore
along at a speed which strained both
ourselves and the torpedo boat. The eX-
citement of the race against time and
knowledge of the stirring news we bore
all added to the effect of the occasion,
but we did not feel the strain OF all tnen
We felt as buoyant as the boat under us,
and the rushing flight over the midnight
waters seemed to proceed from our own
wills rather than from the efforts of the
engines.
Having delivered Our dispatch and
having been delayed some time at the
flagship, we started back at the same
high speed at which we had come. A
storm had blown up in the meanwhile
and into the teeth of it we plunged,
never letting up in Our rush for an in
slant, but just flying, now half out of
the water and now plunging deep into it,
until it seemed as if we were not COM
ing up again. 1t was important that we
should be back in Key West with the
least possible delay. and we were.
On that 2oo-nile round trip there
was neither eating. sleeping nor scarcely
talking-nothing but feeding the boilers
and hanging on as the boat slipped along,
first on one side and then the other, now
Waiting along on her stern and now
seeming to be trying to travel on her
nose
Such a trip is all in a days work for
torpedo boat in peace as well as in war
Indeed, all phases OF life on a torpedo
boat may fairly be characterized by that
much abused word strenuous"

DESCRIPTION OF LIFE
ABOARD A TORPEDO BOAT

PUT thirty-knot destroyer into al
rough sea-" says Sir William White,
and the limit of speed she can make is
what she can bear-what the people on
her can bear"
Travelling at thirty-knot speed is go
ing at the rate of a little over thirty-four
miles an hour.
The average age of the commanders
of the battle ships in the United States
navy is about ffty-seven years. In Sc
lecting officers to command torpedo boats
1t is endeavored to oct men of about
thirty or under Torpedo boats are the
bucking broncos of the sea, and it takes
| young man to ride them successfully.
A man at the wheel of torpedo boat
going at full speed has 40 time to
calculate distances-he must feel them
instinctively. The boat must become
| IS much part of himself as his body
is, and the thought in his brain must be
translated to e movement of the rudder
| as instantaneously and as automatically
as his arm would raise to ward off
| blow aimed at his head. An instants
| hesitation and his boat crashes into an
other craft, plunges upon the shore, or
| is capsized by a heavy sea, as was the
IS. 90 at the mouth of the Elbe
Not only young officers, but young
| men for the crew are needed on board
| torpedo boat-men in whom age and
| experience has not tanned the dash and
daring which the boat itself typifes, and
whose young bodies can adapt them
selves to quickly varying conditions.
Our fiotilla of torpedo boat destroyers,
| when on its way to the Philippines.
| reaching there the middle of last month
after four months at sea. made the trip
from the Canaries TO Gibraltar at an
average speed of only eight knots an
hour. This low speed was maintained
for two reasons-to husband the coal
| supply and to make the going as easy
as possible, so that the men might stand
| chance or getting some sleep during
| the long run.
TEN-MINUTE MAPS.
A man on torpedo boat has to
| comes exceedingly expert. being young
| and adaptable at making up the requir-
| ed amount of slunber in little mosaics
of an hour now, half an hour then and
ten minutes later on. He becomes &C
| customed to drop into doze whenever
a favorable minute arrives and he is
not on duty, and to stay in that condi-
ton until a sudden lurch of the boat
shakes it ont to him. Never at sea does
| he expect to be able to turn in for a
full nights sleep.
This difficulty of sleeping on a tor
pedo boat at sea Is one of the principal
reasons why the feet OF destroyers sent
to Manila had ar itinerary arranged for
it which provided for ninety days spent
in port and only seventy at sea. This
ninety days OF rest against seventy OF
active seagoing is calculated TO be about
| the limit of endurance of a picked crew
| on a torpedo boat. A destroyer. it must
| be remembered. is only a torpedo boat
| of larger growth. and not so much
larger as to make any material difference
| in the amount of discomfort and strain
| put upon the crew, especially where the
theater OF action is the open ocean.
