II was Inevitable. OF course. that such
an event should be duly recorded in

TWO OF the miIlioEaires. George Could
and william Rockefeller. Were extreme
~ wroth at the recording of their move
mcnts and features. They al once ap-
uroached the trembling clerk md in two
separate interviews announced the feet
that If ever again their presence was
made known at Claridge's Hotel through
inc press they would in future go to
Browns Hotel. III Dover street.
Now this was a dire threat. for the
clerk of Claridge's knows of Browns
which is an old-fashioned hotel with a
glorious past. fun OF semi-royalties and

So the clerk made most profusc

.|TAL IAN SHIPS
NEED NEW GUNS
Expert Says Armament Is
Too Heavy.
WEIGHT WILL SINK BOATS
Urges Government to Realize That
Quality, Not Quantity, Is De-
sired in Artillery.

ROME. Sept S-The reformers OF the
navy have. at last. discovered the cause
of Italy's naval ineficiency.
''The ships are as good as those of any
nation. is now the general belief,
what we must reform is the artillery.
We do not need new vessels. bat new
guns"
An expert says that the artillery now
used by the Italian navy is wholly in
adequate.
Some OF the vessels" he says. carry
an armament so heavy that 1 should not
be surprised If disaster occurs any
day. Remember the case OF the Reina
Regente. the iIi-fated Spanish armored
cruiser that was lost several years ago
of Gibraltar during a Mediterranean
storm
THAT vessel was armed "a la Italiana'
carrying an artillery too heavy for her.
The ship was a good one, yet she could
not stand the strain: the weight of her
guns was TOO much, and she sank
Many of our best ships are liable to
suffer the same fate We have believed
for a long time that the only remedy
against big guns is bigger guns This
Is a mistake, and I sincerely hope that
our government will learn the lesson
taught by the Sparish-American and
the Russo-Japanese wars
This lesson Is no other than that in
modern naval warfare it is the quality
and not the size of the armament that
counts"

BRIGHTER CHANCE
FOR GERMAN NAVY
People Have Seen English
Battleships.
REALIZE FLEETS VALUE
Kaiser Thinks Their Patriotism Will
Convince Them That More Money
Must Be Spent.
REALIZE FLEETS VALUE

BERLIN. Sept. 9.-"It is an Ill wind
which brings no good to somebody. the
Kaiser might very appropriately say of
the recent visit of the English Channel
squadron 10 the Baltic, which caused SO
much i'll feeling here, but which he in
his most mastery manner has used to
further his plans for a greater German
navy.
The sight of this mighty British feet
in German waters in the most obvious
manner proved to the German people
that, until the time of general disarm-
ing by all European powers shall have
come. 1t is absolute necessity for
Germany to endeavor to build up a navy
which is at least strong enough to de-
fend the German coasts against an al
tack. even If it is not able TO protect
German commerce on the seas.
Patriotic as the German people have
always been In spite of ali cosmopolitan
and sociaistic theories, they have at
last realized that there is something
more than vanity behind the Kaiser's
ambitious plans for mighty navy. and
ernment's naval program are brighter
than they have ever been.
A Big Increase.
The next few years should therefore
see an enormous increase Of the naval
strength of the empire. and with the
removal of the great Vulcan" works
from Stettia TO Hamburg and the in
creased facilities OF the government
navy yards. all the ships wanted can be
built i'm this country. so that the money
spent for battleships may remain here
and ultimately find its way back into
the pockets of the taxpayers.
The Kaiser is said to have read with
great interest of President Roosevelt's
submarine cruise in the Plunger, and
will undoubtedly follow his example
when the first German submarine boat
shall have been finished in a month or
two.
1t is known that he believes that these
modern engines of war have a great
f,Is ure before them. and IL the boat
which is now approaching completion is
a success, a number of others are TO be
built as fast as possible.
