The S. S. Robert Dollar of the line
arrived in port yesterday morning from
Puget Sound and locked at Railway
wharf No. 2 The Robert Dollar is a
wooden vessel about the size of the
Mauna Loa. Her decks We're piled
high with pontoons, lumber and pipe
for the Federal dredging operations.
The material is piled so high that the
pilot house windows are almost flush
with the top. When the vessel rolled
the load swung considerably, but no
damage was done.
This is the first visit of the Robert
Dollar to this port. She was twelve
days making the trip from Tacoma.
She flies the American flag of course.
Just opposite the Robert Dollar, the
sea- going dredger Pacific lies at Rail-
way wharf No. 1. Work was being
done yesterday in rigging the heavy
suction gear over the bow. This is a
ponderous piece of machinery. All ma
terial is now on hand, and the dredg-
ing of the harbor will be under way by
the. first of the coming month. Lieut.
Slattery's assistants arrived from the
Coast during the week, and the con-
tractors men are all here.
BROOKLYN TO BE CHANGED.
NEW YORK, Oct 4.-Anent the
United States armored cruiser Brook
lyn which is at the Wallabout at the
navy yard for thirty days repairs, the
announcement has just leaked out that
the famous old fighting ship, which
bore the brunt of the fighting at the
battle of Santiago and recently brought
the body Of John Paul Jones from
France to this country, is likely soon
to be extensively altered at the ex-
pense of between 100000 and $1,000, 000
The Brooklyn is called "oId," not be-
cause so many years have passed over
her, but because so rapid is the ad-
vance in naval construction that
month nowadays practically counts for
a year of the past. The fact is that
the Brooklyn is less than ten years
old. She was put in commission on
December l. 1896, and just in time to
get well shaken down before the out
break of the Spanish war. When COM
pleted the Brooklyn was considered the
highest type of armored cruisers. She
was built specially for commerce de-
stroying and speed was the great thing
sought in her construction. This was
successfully accomplished, and on her
trial trip the Brooklyn surpassed the
contract speed.
The official speed of the Brooklyn
was PIG knots an hour, which is the
speed of the ocean greyhounds of to-
day, although some of the latter now
and then surpaSs that figure. The lat
est cruisers, like the Maryland, Colo
RADIO and Pennsylvania, do not much
exceed this speed. 1t is in the battery
emplacements, the arrangement of the
armor and the weight that the latest
cruisers surpass the Brooklyn more
than they do in speed.

Japs Reinforcing Army.

Toxic, April 11.-Japan is meeting
the Russian plan of reorganization ano
reinforcement of its Manchurian army
with an extensive expedition from its
own military organization. The de
tails and figures are carefully con
cealed of what seems to be a plar

1t is estimated that by autumn next
the total military organization will
exceed a million men actually EN-
ployed in the field
The fighting force is roughly esti
mated at 100000 men, with increases
largely in the infantry and artillery
although an enlargement in the cavalry
branch is also contemplated. AS a
result of the manufacture at the arsen
ais in Japan together with captures
and purchases Of guns it is predicted
that this year will see a Japanese ar
tillery superior to that of the Russian
in quality as well as numerically, and
it is confidently believed that the Rus
slams will be incapable of overcoming
these numerical disadvantages. Wher

Captain Hicks, notorious pirate, aIt
said to have been unearthed on Bedloe

ton finally was collected.
From the position of the skeleton
it could be seen that the arms and
legs were pinned close together at the
time Of the burial, which led to the
suggestion that the skeleton OF the pi-
rate captain had been unearthed.
When one of the laborers turned up

the bones were those of the pirate
