Springfield Republican: No doubt
the Connecticut supreme court rules
in accord with the letter of the law
in the Bennett-Bryan will case; never
theloss. nothing is clearer than that
the spirit and purposes of the law are
defeated by this ruling. for nobody
pretends to doubt.-nothing is clearer
than that Mr.. Bennett intended to be
queath a certain specified amount of
his property to Bryan. and no objec-
ton existed to the bequeSt on the
ground of unsound mind or otherwise.
And the aim of our testament2ry laws
is to protect a testator in having his
property disposed of after his death
according TO his wishes. in so far as
they are consistent with public wei
fare This is one of those cases where
zeal in adhering to a literary rule of
law defeats its whole spirit and pur-
nose

Japs Change War Ideas.

Ii is reported that a marked change
will take place in the plan of arma-
ment adopted for the two 16,000-ton
battleships lately authorized by con
gress Hitherto it has been the prac-
tice TO equip American battleships
with four large - or 13-inch guns in
two turrets. forward and aft. and to
supplement these by a numerous bat

throws a projectile weighing about
$50 pounds: the missile of the l0inch
weighs not far from 500 pounds. Both
these weapons are OF the armor-pierC-
ing class. the former being especially
powerful in this respect. The S-inCh
rife. however has been favorite IN
the American navy. Throwing a pro
jectile of 25O pounds in weight and
capable of being fired rapidly. it has

at the same time it was 50 easily man

tremendous damage. At the same
time. it is not improbable that some
veteran officers will think that in do
ing away with medium sized artillery
on our new battleships the government
is making mistake.
Monster ordnance usually has a
much shorter life than middIe-weight
weapons; it is fired much more slowly
and less quickly aimed. Questions Of
this sort are, of course, TO be decided
by professionals. But that the experts
are not infalIible is shown by the fact
that the standards of armament
which they adopt are changed so fire.

Murphy, the leader Of TammRny. Senator
McCarren smilingly received the congratu-
lations, but said not a word one way or the
other about the truce.
While he was az headquarters word was
received that the Mayor had appointed
Dr. Maurice T Lewis and Thomas b Berneck
TO Ill two vacancies in the Board Of Man
ayers of the Brooklyn Disciplinary Training
School. Both DR.. Lewis and Mr.. Berneck
are active Democratic workers, and each
was iudorsed for appointment by Sena-
tor McCarren. All hands regarded tn e
incident as indicating that Mayor Mcclellan
had decided to recognize Senator McCarren
az the chief OF the Brooklyn Democracy
and the dispenser Of the patronage for that
borough
