Ballot Shows Little Change -
Crowd Packs Convention Hall.

Springfield, H., May 16.-After con-
tinuous session of over II hours, and
after taking Is ballots, the Illinois re-
publican convention at 10: 2S o'clock Fri
day night took a recess until Saturday
morning, without having named can
didate for governor. During the long
hours the great body was in session it
was in practical deadlock, and when by
general consent the recess was taken
neither of the seven candidates had Sc
cured an advantage of any moment, each
of them was holding practically his orig
NAL strength.
Mob Packs Hall.
Despite Chairman Cannon's strict or
ders to permit none but delegates and
alternates on the convention floor the
crowd which gathered an hour before the
meeting OF. the republican state conven-
ton broke over the barrier of assistant
sergeants-at-arms and policemen, and
| the hall was soon packed with surging
| mob who though entitled to seats had
| difficulty in forcing their way.
The shouters for the rival candidates,
who had yelled themselves hoarse the
previous day, had provided themselves
with new devices for making din and
carried tin horns. whistles and sirens
with which to keep up the enthusiasm of
their delegates. The Deneen people,
who had been wanting in banners the
previous day. came in with hundreds OF
small standards bearing the name OF
their delegate.
Convention Called to Order.
1t was 1880 O'Clock when Chairman
Cannon called the convention to order
with a new gavel made from an old flag
pole raised in 1860 at Palmyra, ILL.,, on
receipt of the news of Lincoln's nom
ination.
Mr.. Cannon asked the friends of the
candidates to refrain from demonstra'
tions. mo one can reap any advantage
from these demonstrations" He said
Thank God it has been demonstrated il
a two-days' meeting that this conven'
ton is composed of 1,500 men who are
not affected by banners and huzzahs.

PITCH AND ROLL OF SHIPS.
New Design Of Vessel for Relieving II
Just brought Out.

New Design Of Vessel for Relieving IL
Just brought Out.
With the idea Of remedying the pitch
and roll Of ocean vessels. an entirely
new design Of craft has been recently
brought out by II. Turc. an engineer In
the French navy. Forty years ago the
great English engineer, william
Froude. put In evidence a very impOr.
tant fact which has been studied and
verified recently by NJ. Berth. This
fact Is that every ship In which the
proper duration OF oscillation Of pitch.
Ing and rolling is longer than that Of
the wave II encounters. rolls and
pitches but little on this wave. The
problem, then. is to discover boat
Of such a kind that the periods Of
pitching and rolling which are proper
to the boat and which depend on Its
manner Of loading and on the form Of
the keel. shall be longer than those of
the largest wave which II shall en-.
counter.
BEGINNING With these facts, NJ. Turc
planned his ship. This Is composed OF
hull taperlng both ways from the
middle, entirely under the water and
analogous to the keel of a submarine.
SurmOunting this are two floats, point.
ed both In front and In the rear,
placed abreast one another and OF
slight floating sruface. This arrange
ment assures the transversal stability,
which will be all the greater the far.
ther these floats are apart. In a study
made by NJ. Turc with ship of this
type and Of G,3o0 tons displacement
the height between the center of gray.
ity and the metacenter was reduced
to S0-1OO OF meter, and the duration
Of the rolling at normal immersion was
increased TO twenty-five seconds-that
Is, greater than that of the larges,
wave.
In the longitudinal direction, and in
order to diminish, for the reason indi.
Gated above, the floating surface, and
consequently to increase the duration
of the pitching, the floats only occupy
a certain length of the hull, so that the
floating surface Is concentrated toward
the center OF the boat. In the plan
studied by NJ. Turc, the height be
tween the center of gravity of the boat
and the metacenter was reduced 24i
meters. and the duration of oscillation
Of the pitch raised twenty-five seconds
This last arrangement Is the prlnclpa
| characteristic of the vessel.

In the upper portions of the boat, sup
