TURBINE, ATLANTIC
LINER LAUNCHED
Largest Vessel of New Type Yet
Built-To Be Luxuriously
Fitted.

Belfast, Ireland, Aug. 25.-The AL
Ian line steamer Victorian, the largest
turbine vessel yet built was launched
here today. It is expected that she
will be ready for service before the
end of the year. She is $40 feet long,
has 60-foot beam and her depth is
40 feet inches.
The Victorian is to be fitted in a.
most luxurious manner and is to carry
1900 passengers, but the chief interest
in her lies in her propelling power.
Turbine steamers on the Clyde and
in cross-channel service have proved
very successful, mainly because they
have afforded more comfort to pas
sengers. But notifications had to be
devised to meet the requirements of
the Atlantic service, including enor-
nous propelling power and great stop
ping, backing and steering power.
These. difficulties. are understood to
have been overcome by Charles A..
Parsons, the engineer who has de-
veloped the steam turbine and made
it suitable for the generation Of elec-
tricity and the propulsion of mercan-
tile and war vessels. A special ar
rangement has been devised for the
Victorian's machinery, whereby re-
reversing power equal to that of her
forward propelling power can be i'm
parted to it, securing the almost in
stant arrest Of the steamers forward
motion and speedy backing in case it
is needed. Her propellors are three in
number, each on a separate length of
shafting.
The Victorian will be fitted with
a wireless telegraph apparatus and
will carry a. complete printing outfit
between decks.s Her tonnage isTahput
| 1000, and sheais5 expected to develop
about 10000 horse power.

JONES STANDS
ON RUST REPORT
HE IS JUST BACK from CANA
DIAN FIELDS.
After Careful investigation, He Says
the Yield Cannot Exceed az, 100000
While 1t May Drop to $4,000, 600
The Local Wheat Market Shows
Greater Strength. s

Z { 4 = =.
H. v. Jones came In this morning
from the Canadian northwest after an
inspection of the wheat crop thru
Manitoba and the territories. The sit
uatiOn is reported as exceedingly
mixed and uncertain and at best
promising a yield that will be disap
on the early stand therewas the prom.
Use of 70,000,000 bushels of wheat.
This, it is estimated, has been cut all
most in half.
OF the general situation Mr.. Jones
says: .
from rust iii wheat. 1t Is difficult to esti-
mate damage in bushels. In a sense an
estimate Is little better than. a guess, as
fields are in all conditions, from but small
damage to total loss. In my Judgment,
the maximum yield in Manitoba and the
Northwest territories will not exceed A.
100000 bushels, as against 53,000,000 bush
els last year. and the damage may prove
to be sufficiently serious to drop the yield
to $4,000, 900; 1t certainly will with frost,
which Is possible within a few days.
Manitoba is the greatest sufferer. The
Canadian press, railroad officials and the
man who has talked with farmers" have
treated rust news with contempt and
questioned the integrity Of myself and
others in making them. These interests
time that will be sufficient answer to
all such attacks. The prospects for Mani
toba crop were 10000 900 bushels.
Wheat fell off early today. and De-
cember touched $1.05A, but the mar
ket turned about quickly and recov-
cred the recent heavy loss in part,
selling up almost sc at high points.
December advanced from $1.05A to
$1.1O, May from $1.07 to $1.11B, and
September from $1.O6ss to $1.1O5s, all
options easing off a little again at the
close. >.

STEEL RAIL POOL
MAY GO SMASH
Big Sale to Canadian Pacific at
$21 Starts Talk Of
Fight.

New York Sun Special Service.
New York, Aug. 25.-A break In
the steel rail pool is believed IN Wall
street to be imminent. Official an
nouncement is made that the Canadian
aeG hshG fa company mas pu1
$40 to $21 a ton. This is 81 to So
a ton under the pool price. The rails
have been sold by the United States
Steel corporation and the Pennsyl
vania Steel company. Technically, the
officials OF both companies declare the
Canadian buyers is not a violation of
the pool agreement, as this is export
business.
1t is said that the United States steel
corporation wanted to keep the deal
secret, because Of its political effect.
1t feared that an announcement that 1t
was able to sell rails across the Cana
was willing to sell them to American
railroads would put a powerful
weapon in the hands of the demo-
cratic party in it's fight against high
tariff. The story came out from Cana
dian sources.
It is expected that the American
railroads, especially the big eastern
trunk lines, will make a fight over the
discrimination in favor Of the Cana
dian road. E. H. Hartman, who
need nearly hundred thousand tons
of rails for his various systems, has
declared that he will not pay $2s,
Notwithstanding he was forced to do
so last spring. A. j. Cassett Of the
Pennsylvania is equally determined
not to submit to any further exactions
from the pools.
The tariff, however, makes it i'm
possible to import rails as cheap as
$2S ton. altho Charles M. Schwab
h Sfof fn1 no hn 1y,ifA fA1 tot tao
corporation can make money by SELL
ing steel rails, at S12.5O ton. Steel
officials did not deny that the steel
corporation would make a good profit
on rails sold to the Canadian Pacific
at $40 ton.

THE TARIFF And
The PRESIDENT
Secretary Shaw Opens Montana s
Campaign Before Immense
Audience at Helena. n
Special to The journal.

Special to The Journal.
Helena, Mont, Aug. 25.-The re-
publican campaign of 1904 In Mon
tana was opened at the Helena audi
torium by Leslie M. Shaw, secretary
of the treasury, yesterday afternoon.
The immense structure was taxed TO
it's capacity by enthusiastic listeners,
who were quick to grasp the salient
features of the address and encour-
aged the speaker by frequent out
bursts of applause.
Secretary Shaw was introduced by
Senator Thomas HI. Carter, and his
address was devoted chiefly to the
tariff and the personality OF Roose-
yelt. He closed his two hours ad-
dress as follows:
II am not unmindful of the claim that
is made by some of our democratic friends
that the issues shall be the candidates.
This is also welcomed. They will not
attack the personal integrity Of Theodore
Roosevelt They will not attack his pa
triotism. They will not attack his cour-
age. They will not attack his indepen-
dence. They will not attack his intel
ligence. They will not attack the wis
dom measured by results of anything he
has done or sought to do They will not
not claim that his administration has
been vacillating or disastrous. They will
only express the opinion that man who
does things must of necessity do wrong
things. and that man who thinks quick
ly must of. necessity think incorrectly, and
that man who is ambitious for his coun-
try's prosperity and for his country q
peace and safety must of necessity be
unsafe.
The logic Of their argument Is that the
only safe man would be some one who
can be whipped into a telegram to the
effect that whatever may have been his
previous views or whatever may be his
present convictions. he is willing to ac-
quiesce for the time being in anything
he does not think it expedient to oppose.
Mr.. Shaw left this morning fol
Spokane.
