The conditions were just right for a bad

a large lumber yard, several planning mills
and a number 81 extensive business estab-

residential district.
That the flames did not spread 20 all of
this property was extremely fortunate. A
high wind was blowing and for a while
things looked badly.

that the Waterman stable was on fire

SHAMM|NG
ILLNESS, BOSTON
DETECTIVE SAYS

BOSTON NOV. 2"-Morris Nathan who, upon his arrival here late
yesterday afternoon from Pittsburg, was detained by the local police
n the charge OF having procured an illegal operation on Susanna A.
Heary' the victim OF the suit case tragedy, was resting early this FORE
noon at the City hospital. where he was taken last night.
His physical condition when he ws taken TO the institution was
SO weak that it was considered doubtful whether it would be possible
tor him to appear in the municipal court today, as he had planned to
answer to the charge against him. This morning it w "a stated at
police headquarters that this matter had not yet been decided.
The hospital authorities would divulge little regarding Nathans
condition, but it is understood that he slept well last night, being
thoroughly fatigued from his journey and from the strain to which
he had been subjected.
SEARCH FOR PHYSICIAN FUTILE.
"A search for a south end physician suspected in the case was
conducted during the night, but without result. The police visited
a house where he is said to have lived part of the time, but inmates
OF the place stated that the doctor had not been there for several
weeks.
The authorities were interested to interview this physician on
account Of his alleged resemblance to the man who purchased two
suit cases in which the body Was found from the south end pawn shop.
Jesse Cove, chief counsel for Nathan, is said to have instructed
his client to make no further statements to the police of any kind.
This will force the authorities entirely upon their own resources to
make out a case against Nathan and the others who NAV be respon-
sible.
Because of Nathans condition it was regarded as doubtful at III
o'clock today that he would be brought into court today. Physicians
at the city hall expressed the opinion that it would be best to permit
the young man to rest until tomorrow.

BATTLESHIP IOWA
Muzzle of Eight Inch Gun of Old Type
Is Blown OFF

WASHINGTON, April ia tele-
gram from the chief Of staff of the
North Atlantic squadron, received at
the navy department today, states that
the muZzle of one Of the eight inch
guns of the Iowa blew off yesterday.
during target practice. No one was in
Jured. The telegram stated that after
Iour OF the eight inch guns in target
practice had been fired the muzzle of
the ntth gun blew off at the first round.
1t was one of the old type guns of this
caliber mounted on the Iowa before
the Spanish war and designed to use
brown powder, and consequently had a
much thinner muZzle than the new
type guns. 1t had been fired success
fully 103 times and burst on the 1O4th
time, with normal powder conditions,
SO far as now known.
Several other guns of the same type
on the Iowa and made at the same
time have suffered similar accidents
and this class of gun is being replaced
as rapidly as possible with longer and
thlcKer tuDed weapons. The navy de-
partnent has ordered a thorough in

for the construction of three scout
cruisers. With the completion of these
ships there Will be added TO the navy
new and unique type of vessel. In the
opinion of naval officers the war in
the far east has demonstrated the
great value of scout ships, and since
these are planned to have high speed
and great steaming radius, they are
expected to prove important additions
to the naval service. Their building
also opens the possibility of the intro
duction of turbine machinery, as the
department in the advertisement for
bids announced that alternative pro-
posalS for the installation of turbine
engines would receive the departments
consideration. In the meantime the
bureau of steam engineering has been
making study of turbine systems and
has been closely observing all expert
ments that have been conducted in that
direction.
The scout ships are to be 420 feet
long. with a breadth of 46 feet s
inches and a draft of 16 feet The dis
placement on speed trial is to be not
more than $3.50 tons. Provision is
made for a total coal carrying capa-
city of about 1850 tons. The speed
VIII De -tMenly-IOur All
Each will be provided with a battery
of II twelve inch rapid fire guns and
two submerged torpedo tubes. Four
smokestacks will rise to a height OF
72 feet above the base line. The maxi
mum time allowed for completion OF
the vessels is fixed at thirty-two
months il reciprocating engines are
adopted and thirty-six months If tur-
bines are adopted. total weight of
about 1874 tons of nickel steel will be
employed in the construction of each
vessel for protective purposes.
The lowest bids for the cruisers were
as follows: Fore River Shipbuilding
company, Quincy, Mass, one at ST.
$4,000 or two at 1,557, 900 each; Union
Iron Works, one at $1,6S9, 900 or two
at $1.666, 900 each. These bids are for
the construction of the cruisers under
the departments plans with reciprocal
ing engines. The lowest bids submitted
for cruisers with turbine engines We're:
Fore River Shipbuilding company. two
at S1,46S,000 each; Bath Iron Works.
two at $1,573,000 each.
All the proposals are to be carefully
reviewed by board of naval officers
which will consider and compare the
various plans and specifications sub
mitted, together with the prices at
which they are to be built. In view Of
the Introduction of the turbine plans
some time may elapse before the de-
partment is ready to make the award.
