VIRGINIA
READY FOR
LAUNCHING

NEWPORT NEWS, Va, April e.
G. b. Oricut, president of the Newport
News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock CON-
pany, announces the completion of all
arrangements for the launching Of the
battleship Virginia next Tuesday. The
hour of the launching will be about
l o'clock, at high tide.
1t will be gala day for Newport
News and vicinity. The program of
festivities will include big military
and fire parade and the mobilization
of innumerable craft of all descriptions
in the harbor directly off the ship
yard.
After the Virginia is launched there
will probably be Is months work to be
done before she is ready to go into
commission. The aTmored cruiser
West Virginia, which was launched a
year ago this month, is rapidly nearing
completion but will not be ready for
the government within six months
The Maryland, which was launched
last September, will be at the yard
another year at least.
1t is matter of historical coinci-
dence that the point where the new
Virginia will take to the water is with
in sight of the battle-ground of the
great struggle between the confederate
ironclad Virginia (Merrimac) and the
Monitor on March 9, 1862.

WHAT DOES THE
EXTENSION MEAN

CHICAGO, April 2.-Western rail-
road men are specializing as to the real
inwardness of the Chicago Great West
ern extending its De Kalb branch into
the soft coal territory and Peoria. The
scheme is generally regarded as merely
another step on President Stockings
part in the direction of getting fair
sale of his read to some other railroad.
The move, it is thought, is specially
aimed at the Burlington, which has
numerous lines in the country III
question, with the object of inducing
the Hill interests to buy the Great
Western. The report that the Great
Western plans to build to st. Louis is
not taken seriously in view of the
known difficulties the road would en-
counter in securing an entrance into
that city.

WAR CAUSED CHANGE
IN SCHEDULE

SAN FRANCISCO, April 2-The
sailing of the steamship Coptic for the
orient today inaugurates the new joint
sailing schedule adopted by the Pacific
Mail and the Occidental and Oriental
Steamship companies. The withdrawal
of the three steamers of the Togo ks
en- kaisha line, which are now being
used by the japanese for transports,
made the old schedule irregular and
necessitated the adoption of new
one leaving out the Japanese steamers.
Under the new schedule vessels will
dpart from San Francisco for the
orient at intervals of about ii days.
