SWEETEST AFLOAT
Will Be Uncle Sans New
 Scout Cruisers
A Description of the Lightninglike Batteries With Which They Will Be Provided.

Washington, April 23.-The three "scout cruisers" for which the navy department recently opened bids are intended to be among the swiftest ves- sells in the world and their batteries will be sufficiently heavy enough to engage a foe fast enough to overtake them. For this reason the main ar mament of each will consist of twelve of the three-inch guns for which the contract was recently awarded to the British and American manufacturing company, at Bridgeport, Conn.,. for merly the American Ordnance Co, and subsidiary concern of the Interna- tional Power company. These cruisers, as their names indicate. will not be aggressive fighting machines. They are to be the messengers of the fleets and everything possible is sacrificed to secure speed. Yet, as the only ships that would probably oTertake them are "destroyers," against these three inch guns are sufficiently powerful.
 The department has been experi- menting for some time to get a sat isfactory three-inch gun to take the place of the present gun of that cali bre and supersede the six pounders. All the essentials of a perfect gun are found in those now being manufactur- ed. The contract awarded to the Brit ish and American company provides for SC threeinch guns, and is, with a single exception, the largest contract of this character ever awarded. These guns cost, in round numbers, five thousand dollars each. They are mar vels of power and effectiveness. The prOjectile carried weighs fourteen pounds, and the range of the gun is four miles. These fourteen pound pro jectiles are explosive in character and can be fired at the rate of fifteen a minute, although at the Indian Head proving grounds the remarkable record of twenty per minute was made. It will thus be seen that one of these lit tie guns will throw two hundred and ten pounds of explosive shells per minute, and the entire equipment of the scout cruiser. 12,60O pounds in an enga cement of five minutes not taking into consideration the assistance of the many smaller guns that will complete the arm1ment of thes= cruisers. Able. by reason Of their great speed. to keep out of the way of larger vessels. this armament is considered amply suffi- cent 10 cope with any destroyer Or torpedo boat
 These new -three-inch guns, improv- cd in many ways, have their effective ness increased by lengthening them and giving them weight. Each gun is 154 inches long and weighs, mounted, about two tons. Some idea of the force of the impact from one Of these small guns may be had when it is known that they are fired with a velocity of 2900 foot-seconds.
 The three-inch gun is an important

THIS Is AN OLD STORY
And It Is Not a Precisely Straight
 One Either.

New York, April 23.-Robert D. Peattie an English sea captain, arrived here today on the steamer Etruria en route to Phoenix, Arizona, where he goes to attempt to establish the ident- ity of three men under arrest there.
 The men are believed to be former members of the crew of the English schooner Rosehill, commanded by Captain Peattie and who got into a brawl while the vessel was at a Span ish port and killed one of their ship mates. The men were placed in irons but managed to make their escape and reached shore on a raft.
 This is not only ancient but Inac- curate history. Captain Peattie ar rived in New York about a week ago and received word on the day of his arrival there from British Consul Gen eral COurtenay Walter Bennett then in Phoenix that ne need not come. IL turns out that his presence and the errand which had brought him to this country have just been discovered by the young gentlemen who gather news. Nor were three men under arrest here awaiting identification; nor was the vessel on which the brawl occurred the ROSenlll put II was the Leicester Cas- tie.
 In reports of the extradition pro- ceedings here it was stated that 1t was the opinion of Captain Peattie that the men who mutinied on his vessel after haviRsk kasi4zsIT on a raft never reached land NesAd that theory had never been disturbed until about four months ago it was brought to the attention Of the British consul general at San Francis co that one of them was in Arizona.
 It was made known, though it did not come out at the hearing that the British government with its GUS tOmary thOrOughness in such matters after the return of the Lei eester Castle to England with infor- nation of the murder of Second Mate John Bennett Nixon and the escape of the murderers from the ship, sent a war vessel to Pitcairn Island the nearest land with instructions to interview every man, woman and cihld there re- garding three sailors who might have landed on raft. The instructions were carried out and report was made to the office of the home secretary that the men had not come to the island.
