stoned ship at 3 80 am. of the 14th dur
ing a heavy snow; one torpedo boat still
missing, while the rest returned safely.
On the morning of the 14th our observa-
ton station and picket ship reported to
me that the SevastOpofs bow had sunk
three feet. From 80 pm. of the 14th
to 3 am. of the 18th six torpedo boat
fotillas and special torpedo boats in

vasny (gunboat) and commissioned ship,
but the details not yet reported.
"At am. of the 18th the observation
station reports that SevastopoIs bow was
further sunk, with torpedo tube completely
immersed"
1.-The commander of naval artillery re-
ports that the bombardment on the 18th
was principally aimed at the arsenal and
the torpedo depot at Tigers Tail and at
the steamboats, in it's vicinity. The tor
pedo depot was ablaZe one hour. Three
ships were destroyed, and one was sunk,
besides building greatly damaged. The in
direct bombardment upon the Sevastopol,
staying outside the harbor, was suspended,
owing to bad weather, which prevented
the torpedo-boat fotillas attacked twice the
Sevastopol on the night of the 10Th and
thrice on the night of the 18TH Each time
they met the eneiny's fire. and one Of our
torpedo boats was disabled, but lowed

MIR. cooPER's VIEWS.
Why He Does Not Believe in an In
terstate Commerce Court.

Representative Cooper of Wisconsin, the
author Of what is popularity known as the
Cooper-Quarles bill, to confer additional
power on the interstate commerce commits
sion to adjust railroad freight rates, does
not approve of the proposition to establish
an interstate commerce court for the adju-
dication of freight-rate cases
Discussing the subject at the White House
today, Mr.. Cooper contended that the adop-
.tion of the proposition would mean simply
further delay to the shippers in the adjust
,ment of their complaints. The delay would
discourage the shippers and probably be so
expensive that the small shippers, particu-
larly, would be unable or unwilling to bring
their complaints before the court
Mr.. Cooper thought the burden of proof
that a given rate Is fair and reasona BILE
ought to be placed on the railroad making
it. If this bill were enacted into law this
would be the effect of its operation. He
maintained that the interstate commerce
commission was the proper tribunal to set
tie rate controversies. the opportunity, of
course, subsequently being afforded the
railroads to have the controversies finally
settled in the courts.
