London, Sept. Sit is known per.
fectly well at the Japanese Legation
here that a secret treaty has been
made between the Gear of Russia and
the Emperor of Japan, despite the
usual diplomatic denials.
These facts concerning the treaty.
by the way by which It was reached
and its purposes, can be stated on the
highest authority:
The Kaiser advised the Gear to make
the secret treaty when they met on
their yachts Hohenzollern and Polar
Star in the Baltic Sea.
The intermediates In the negotia-'
tons were the Japanese Minister at
London and the German Ambassador
at st. Petersburg. King Edward help.

II provides that the Gear OF Russia

$500 900 900 indemnity to Japan In five
years less the amount which Russia
will pay Japan for her care and main
tenance of Russian prisoners OF war.
500 900, 900 as provided in the Treaty
of Portsmouth.
IL Is repOTteu dlsO that N"sSis
agrees in the treaty to give Japan a
tree hand in China though this point
is not SO certain as the other.
The compact was made without the
knowledge even OF Baron komura ana
Mr.. Witte.
The Gear and the Emperor OF Japan
bound themselves solemnly to secrecy
about the treaty. Cable dispatches
state that, when Mr.. Martens TOOK

admitted that secret treaty Is In ex'
istence. Martens, one Of the most as

without his sovereign's permission. "

Must Change Plans
For Fighting Ships

Washington, September 2O.-The de-
signers of the new battleships have
discovered that they cannot according
to present plans furnish those vessels
with the armament which would make
them as powerful as the battleships
now being designed and built abroad.
It was found that II the American
ships are limited to 10000 tons dis
placement. as required by Congress.
there will be vital defect In the ships.
and 1t is now, proposed to increase the
displacement to $4,000 tons.
The increase In the displacement
by 1000 tons would call for greater
horsepower OF the engines and would
require an abandonment OF the plans
already drawn and the preparation Of
entirely new designs. II is necessary
to have the speed of the battleship
maintained, and this can be done only
by material changes In the machinery
designs. which have been drawn In the
assumption that the displacement
would be 10000 tons. as named In tho
act. The advantages to be gained by
the change Id displacement, however.
are such that no one In authority is
likely to regard the abandonment Of
the present tentative designs, and the
preparation Of the new plans, as a
sufficient reason for keeping the dis
placement at 10000 tons.
| The experts believe that It is possi-
BILE to construct machine OF $4,000
tons displacement and give the same
speed as that Of the New Hampshire
and Kansas, both OF them being Of the
6.000-ton class.
One OF the reports OF the bureau OF
Intelligence shows that Great Britain
contemplated building three vessels
OF this l6.O0O-ton class. They were to
be 4iO feet long. They were to carry
four l2-inch guns. eight 75-.nch guns
and ten s-inoh guns on their main deck.
speed not less than 1875 knots. II the
vessels are to be raised TO $4,000 tons
each, II Is estimated that 1t would re.
require ls,OOO-horse power. These are
the problems which are now being dis
cussed with the chances that the next
vessels will be OF this great proposed
lS,00O-ton class and will probably have
more than nineteen knots speed.
Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1905-09-30

Before there were so many yards Il
was the carefully sinculcated impres.
sion that II took Just about four years
to build battleship. That impression
mas been destroyed by the rapidly
with which the New York Navy Yard
and the Newport News Shipbuilding
Company are constructing the Louis

those ships ready in thirty months.
Four years ago when Mr.. Roosevelt
became President the navy list con.

These personal quarrels are at the
root of much of the mutual luminosity

1T Is understood that the King insists

whether the two monarchs become rec.
