Fate Of the Katahdin.
The Navy Department has been called
upon to decide q question In regard to the
obsolete Ammen ram. better known as
the gunboat Katahdin. After q recent sur
vey Of this vessel It was stated that an
expenditure Of 300 was necessary to keep
her from deteriorating from lack Of re-
pairs She Is said to be absolutely useless
for naval purposes and can scarcely be used
for commercial purposes, SO the officials
are puzzled as to whether 1t Ia worth while
to spend money to maintain an Improbable
relic. This boat was the most expensive
experiment ever undertaken by the navy.
Even the so-called dynamite boat Vesuvius
has been converted into a torpedo practice
vessel. but this old ram that was going to
sink the whole Spanish fleet in jig time, can
be turned to no useful purpose whatsoever.
Autumn Naval Target Practice.
The bureau OF navigation has completed
the plans for the autumn target practice
of the ships Of the North Atlantic fleet.
The vessels will assemble at Provincetown,
Mass, early next week and indulge in
work preliminary to the firings on the
ranges, which will begin about September
10 or IL. There will be five ranges in Cape
Cod bay. where the target practice will be
held this year, instead of at Martha's Vine
yard. as heretofore.
Vessels Out Of Commission.
There Is a disposition In the Navy De-
partment to place gunboats and other small
ships out of commission. That plan seems
to apply to vessels which have been in
service for some time and which need gen.
eral overhauling to put them in condition
for further sea service. A case Of the kind
Is furnished by the U. s. S. Topeka, which
is to be placed on the waiting list indefi-
nitely and to receive only such repairs as
will keep her from deterioration. The same
Is true of the gunboat Bancroft, for which
requests have been made from various
sources and which Is likely to be put to
good use outside the navy
Additional ships of the navy are marked
to be held in reserve upon the recommended
ton Of the chief of the bureau Of navga-
ton. These include the Atlanta and the
Terror. which will go in reserve at League
Island. and the Hartford the Severn and
the Newark. which will go into reserve at
the Naval Academy.

SUPREME COURT REPORTER.
Vacant ORce VIII Not Re Filled f.
 Two Weeks.

 Rumors of a successor to Phares Coleman who resigned as Supreme Court Reporter Wednesday, continue rife at the Capitol.
 It is given out on reliable authority that the appointment by the Court will not be made for about two weeks. One reason is that it is the desire of the six Associate Justices to consult with Chief Justice T. N. Mcclellan, who is sick at his home in Athens, before naming the man for this important of fee.
 Another reason is put forward that the Reporter Is not needed in two weeks yet. Under the rules of the Su- preme Court, counsel for the parties to an appeal in cases that have been de- cided at this term, has the right of two weeks in which to file applications for rehearings. There have been few opinions handed down this week hut there will be no necessity for handling them until the expiration of the first two weeks of the term.
 A letter received yesterday from the bedside of Chief Justice Mcclellan brought news of a marked improve ment in the condition of the patient. Judge Mcclellan left Montgomery last Sunday for his home in Athens where he was thought to be seriously III. For a time this was true, but his friends confidently expect him to be back on the bench again inside of a week or two.
 Other names mentioned yesterday fin connection with the office of Reporter were those of Judge Daniel Partridge, Jr.. of Selma, Captain L. NJ. Smith of
 Walker County and former Attorney General W. L. Martin of Montgom- cry. The friends of Judge Paul Speake of Huntsville, are insisting that his name shall also be used.
 Judge T. Scott Sayre yesterday au- thorized a denial of the repoxt that he is an applicant for the officA There has been no denial of the candidacy of Judge Paul Speake of Huntsville and Edward Wilson of Clarke County.
