CHASED BY WHITE WHALE.
Two Fishermen Escape Monster Only
by Rowing Into Shall
low Water.

New York.-Spouting and thrashing
the water with his big tail, the mon
ster white whale, which has been sport
ing on the north shore from Lynn TO
ROekport for two weeks. gave two BeV-
erley fishermen chase.
Friday Capt John Haskell. who
commands the steam yacht Aurora,
owned by Dudley l. Pickman. Bever-
~ summer colonIsi, was out fishing
when the whale came up near him. The
whale spouted and acted ugly. so that
Capt Haskell. experienced as be is. be
gan 10 glance shoregard and figure on
the distance 10 the beach
The whale began to hit up his speed
and Capt Haskell began to bend TO the
car. Hoping to stop the fish. Capt
Haskell threw one q his extra oars

He did not watch 10 see whether the
fish swallowed the timber OF not. but
pulled hard for the shallow water and
was soon out Of danger.
Former Alderman Fred W. Trowt. Of
Beverly Farms. also had an experience
with the monster which be does not
care to repeat. He was out fishing OF
Pride's crossing when the whale sud
denly appeared. headed directly for the
tenoerboat The former alderman con-
Guided that discretion was the better
part Of valor and began to hit up a
fast stroke toward the beach. He also
escaped the fish by running into shall
low water. the whale being unable to
follow him in.
The whale is a good-sized one. and
Gloucester fishermen are talking Of or
ganizing a whaling party and hope to

BATTLEsHIPs ARE BEST.
Naval Statistics Show That Modern
War Cruiser Need Not Fear
Torpedo Boats.

WashingtOn0P President Roosevelt,
who closely follows the progress of the
Russo-Japanese war, recently inquired
OF the navy department if there were any
authenticated records OF battleships hav-
ing been destroyed by torpedoes launched
from torpedo craft. The administration
is strong for congress to authorize three
battleships at the approaching session.
Opposition was made last year to the
authorization Of more battleships on the
ground that they were too vulnerable TO
torpedo attack. In the report OF Rear Ad-
miral G. A. Converse, chief Of the bureau
Of navigation, is the answer to the in
quiry Of the president. II looks bad for
the torpedo craft side OF the argument.
1t says:
Although a hundred and more tor
pedo boats and destroyers have been
actually engaged for five months against
battleships which have been exposed to
attack times without number, we have
yet to learn authoritatively OF torpedo
from torpedo vessel causing the total
loss of single battleship. Those which
have been sunk owed their destruction TO
submarine mines.
ITO wage successful warfare with a
naval force requires now, as 1t has re-
Quired in all ages, type of vessel which
shall combine in the most effective man
ner the qualities of offense, mobility, de-
Tense, endurance, self-maintenance Such
vessels are battleships, and they consti-
tute the main strength and reliance Of a
navy"
