PLANS FOR BATTLESHIP.
To Eclipse ANY Fighting Ma
chinery Now In
Existence.

The experts of the United States
Navy are preparing plans for new
battleship which, when completed,
will eclipse any fighting machine now
in existence. The battlaship will be
of from $1,000 to 20. 600 gross ton
mage, but the most radical departure
will be in respect to armament.
Instead Of, as now, arming the ves-
sci with main battery of heavy guns
and graduating the rest of her arma-
ment from 6-inch rifles down TO six,
three and one Founders in her second
battery. the new ship will carry only
two types of naval ordnance. Her main
battery will consist of ten 12-inch
guns, the heaviest now in use in the
American Navy, placed in turrets
and in broadsides, and her secondary
battery will be made up entirely of at
least twenty of the new 3-ineh quick
firing guns. For long time the con-
struction of such battleship as the
one contemplated has peen the dream
of navy experts, but they consider the
time has now arrived when such a
type of fighting machine is absolutely
essential.
The American Navy is at present
composed of vessels the majority of
which can be separated into homogen-
eous groups There are about half a
dozen battleships of the recent type
which are essentially homogeneous,
five new cruisers which can also be so
classed, and the somewhat less mod
ern ships can also be divided into
other groups of fighting units. For
future ships. however, the experts are
at present considering three types
only-the battleship. the armored
cruiser and the destroyer They think
that a navy composed of merely these
three types of vessels-with the pos
sible addition of the submarine, which
is considered to be as yet in the ex-
perimental stage, would be more eff
cieDt than navy made up of all the
different prevailing types. 1t is very
improbable, therefore, that the con
struction of any more cruisers of the
type of the Charleston, Milwaukee,
Columbia, Minneapolis. Olympia, Chi
cago, Newark and San Francisco will
be recommended. The protected
cruiser is at present practically dis
credited. largely through the results
of the seafights which have occurred
during the present conflict in the
Far East.

Sweetzer's Bridge

Mr.. James r. Bannon, counsel 20
the County Commissioners and j. M.
Brian, j. Charles Linthicum, Sheriff
James Rittenhouse, Emanuel Lau-
mann, of Baltimore county and others
had a conference yesterday relative
to the rebuilding of Sweetzer' bridge,
over the Patapsco river, in the Thir-
teenth district, as provided by a law
passed by the General Assembly of
Maryland, which directs that the
bridge shall be built jointly by Anne
Arundel and Baltimore counties.
President Yellott said that the
bridge fund for the present year was
nearly exhausted. and an appropria-
tion for building the bridge could
not be made at present. Mr.. Bannon
said that matters could be so arranged
that Baltimore county's share of the
expense of building the bridge would
be paid out of the next tax levy. Mr.
Yellott said that such an arrangement
might be made if no interest was
charged for deferred payments.

and rs this number is an increase over
former years, the regular teacher was
obliged To have an assistants
OF the eighty colored children only

being Protestants. The reason for
the increased number of cOlored stu.
dents is that many of the colored
schools adjacent TO Annapolis are

November Is. The Sisters have been
obliged TO turn away a number of

monthly reviews at the school conduct
ed under the personal supervision OF
the Rev. Thomas O. Hanley, rector

has slant and is the business hand.
The idea of the new method is rapid

There are so many exercises per min.

more character in the new system and
its method has given satisfaction.
