GustaVe closson confesses Awful
Crime to Officers.
DoylestOwn, Pa, July 5.-After be
ing subjected to a severe examination
by detectives, Gustave A. Closson, OF
Morrisville, Pa, has confessed that he
poisoned one of his sons and tried to
kill the other in the same manner.
Walter Closson, the 11-yeaF-old son of
Closson, died suddenly on May 19.
Closson says that on May IL he put
rat poison between two pieces Of
bread and gave them to his son Henry,
telling him it was a sandwich. The
boy ate the cread. There was too much
poison on the bread and the boys
stomach rejected it. He was i'll. but
soon recovered. Two days later the
father gave Walter a glass of beer
with poison in it. The boy became vio-
lently ill., The father refused to send
for doctor, and the lad died in great
agony.
Closson says he wished to poison the
boys because they were not very
bright, and that there was no chance
that they would ever be of any use to
him. There is an insurance of $3.50 on
the life of the boy he tried to kill.

THE FRENCH NAVY.
40 he Made as Strong as the Navies
of the Triple Alliance.

OF the Triple Alliance.
During the recent debate on tho
French naval estimate NJ. Charles Bos
warned the chamber of deputies not to
be led into estimating the fighting value
Of the navy by its numerical strength.
After suppressing most OF the vessels
constructed before 1891, which could
no longer be regarded as having any
real value, the situation of the navy
was, he said, becoming a precarious
one in view of the more rapid progress
made by other countries, and it was
therefore absolutely necessary 70 re-
place these units as soon as they had
become obsolete. NJ. Thomson, the
minister Of marine, seemed disposed to
include the new vessels, to replace
those going out of service, in the pro-
gramme of constructions to be intro
duced next year. NJ. de Lanessan.
however, is Of the opinion that it would
be preferable to bring the navy up to
its full numerical strength independ-
emily Of the programme, and he has
just introduced a bill for the construc-
tion of a number OF vessels, which are
to be started upon during the present
year. The bill provides for the build
ing Of six battleships of an Identical
type to form homogeneous squadron,
and three armOred cruisers to cOnsti- /
tute a homogeneous division, as well as
six deStroyers. eight torpedo boats and
a number Of submersibles and subma-
rines to be fixed by the conseil supe-
rieur de la marine.
IN its general lines the bill merely |
confirms the estimates for construc- |
tions recently voted except as regards :
the addition of a number Of smaller I
craft. The squadron battleships aud |
armored cruisers have already been /
authorized by parliament, but the de- |
stroyers and torpedo boats, although /
provided for under the 1900 programme. j
We're not included in the 1905 budget.
The bill. therefore. wiz not entail any
considerable addition TO the expendi-
ture recently voted.
The aim of NJ. de Lanessan is eestart
upon the construction OF these vessels
In the present year and to insure that
The vessels forming complete squad
rons shall be built TO exactly the same
type, for which purpose a clause is in
serted in the bill to the effect that the
and armaments Of all these
vessels are to figure in the law author
izing their construction and that no
changes can be carried out
unless sanctioned by new law. In
the preamble to his bill NJ. de Lanessan
says that in 1908 France win possess
Lwenty-eight first class battleshlps. of
which six We're launched between 1873
and 1889, and with these vessels it will
,nly be possible 10 compose two squad
'ons of six battleships One OF them
will not even be homogeneous At the I
iame time England win have dfty-two {
irst class battleships, an launched j
ince 1891, while Germany VIII have
twenty-five. The former minister of t
he marine says that there is no reason
or trying to rival England in the num- (
'er of ships under construction, but
france cannot afford to allow herself L
o be outdistanced by Germany and a
lust be capable Of more than holding t
er own against the combined naval T
Orces Of the triple alliance.-London r
