TURBINES FAVORED
NAVY DEPARTMENT EXPERTS
HAVE CHANGED THEIR VIEW.
Discussion Of the Considerations THAI
Caused Them to Revise Their
Former Opinion.

Just why the naval experts here are sud-
denly inclined toward the turbine method
Of propulsion of naval ships after having
within nine months past decided adversely
to the use of turbines In the case of the
battleships last authorized is a question
that has puzzled persons interested in ma
val matters. But such Is the fact, and Sec
rotary Bonaparte has received and turned
over to the construction board lot of data
pertaining to the new British armored
cruisers of the Indomitable class, directing
special attention to the turbine machinery.
Upon the report of the constructors he will
base his own recommendations to Congress
at the approaching Session relative to new
naval construction.
1t now appears that the construction
board rejected the turbine machinery when
last offered for two reasons. First be-
cause confidential reports had shown that
the turbine propelling engine was far
behind the reciprocating engine in maneuv-
ering power, one of the first Qualfica lions
in battle ship. In the second place, the
shipbuilders demanded 100000. more for
supplying turbine engines than for recipro-
eating engines. and the Navy Department
feared that Congress was not in the mood
last session to sanction any, such expendi-
ture.
But reports have recently reached the de-
partment touching the performance of the
inclined the constructors to reverse their
judgment in the case of turbines and it is
entirely probable that such engines will be
proposed in the plans for the great 10000
ton battleship which must be submitted
to Congress by it's direction at the next ses-
sion. Details of the construction of the
Dreadnought, guarded as a state secret for
two years, are now coming to life. and they
show that the objection against the
turbine on the point of maneuvering ca
pacity has been overcome. That was &C
complished by equipping the big ship with
four separate propeller shafts and with
two great rudders, behind the other,
giving great power of steering.
Also in the matter of cost, intimations
have been received from some of our ship
builders that with the experience gained in
the recent construction of merchant ships
and yachts equipped with turbines the cost
Of these engines be considerably re-
duced from the prices originally proposed,
and with these facts in mind it is believed
that the construction board will no longer
hesitate to recommend the adoption of the
turbine engine for naval propulsion.

AMERICANS TRANsGREssoRs.
Fishermen Follow the Fish and
Make Catch in Canadian Waters.

The controversy which has been waged
between the American and Canadian lake
fishermen for the past twenty years has
been placed in an entirely different light by
a report made by Capt. E. c. Chayter com
manding the United States revenue cutter
Morrill, on the Great Lakes. The report
shows in substance that the American fish
ermen have been transgressors and that
they have been treated with the greatest
consideration by the Canadian fishing pa
troll
Some time ago the State Department IA
vorably considered u plan of settling tenn
porarlly the vexed question Of fishing rights
on Lake Erie by placing a series of buoys
= in the middle of the iake to define the in
ternational boundary. The Canadian gov
eminent cordially accepted that proposition
and Capt. Chayter was instructed to place
the buoys. AS II was apprehended that hon
est differences OF opinion as TO the location
of the boundary line might arise from diff
ferences between the automatic logs of the
American and CANADIAN patrol vessels and
the use or different charts, Capt. Chayter
was instructed 10 compare notes on these
points with Capt. Dunn of the Canadian pa
troll boat Ngilaut.
Under date of October IL he reports from
Lake Erie that he started out from that
port on the 18th instant on the Morrill, ac-
companied by Capt. Dunn on the Vigilant
20 place the buoys. He found that there
could he no question of differences in charts
because the Canadian vessel was using the
American photographic charts while theii
logs exactly correspondent and in the course
II several days the buoys were placed al
intervals of five miles. Capt. Chayter adds
that the American fishermen do cross the
boundary for the reason that there are
comparatively few fish south OF the zine
and they are found TO follow the fish. He
says that Capt Dunn. contrary 10 common

MISSOURI LID LAW
 HAS SERIOUS FLAW

KANSAS CITY, July 6.-The Sun day closing law, in the enforcement of which Governor Folk has been SC ac- tive, was today declared null and void so far as cities of the second class are concerned by the Kansas City Court of Appeals. The case was that of Will liam T. Kessels, a saloop-keeper of St. Joseph. convicted of selling nquor on Sunday, in which the court held that St. Joseph has exclusive power to regulate, restrain, license, tax or
 suppress dramshops, and that the state law as to dramshops is not applicable to that city because the state legislat- ure delegated to the city, in granting it charter, the full right of regulating dramshops. This decision applies only to St. Joseph and other cities of the second class.

Portugese Woman Brushes Her Daughter Aside and Throws Herself Under Cars and Body Is Ground to Pieces.
Passengers Make Up Purse of S200 For the Little Daughter Suddenly Left MothefeSS and Alone.

TUCSON, July 5.-ICaf to the plead ings and tears of her tile daughter, Portugese woman br. thing aside the child, who stroye plu Rily to restrain her mother, folded he arms and threw herself under the last gar of No. 9, the west-bound passenge. train, at Lords burg, yesterday aftel loon.
 The wonman's boo was cut in two. Her remains were ( covered by per sons sitting at the rC-,r end of the ob- serYation car.
 Sympathetic pass gers taking in the situation quic " subscribed a purse of S200 for Q little girl who strange land.
 It is believed tha the unfortunate woman was impellc l to commit sui eide through being crazed by fear. Unable to speak a word of English, she had travelled tGely from New Orleans, where she had landed from Portugal. Her deS tination was Cliff ton where it is supp osed her husband is employed in the n mes.
 It was necessary fer her to change cars at Lordsburg. When Conductor Zwick, who was in charge of the train, examined her ticket, he informed the woman as well as he could by signs that she must take another train. He assisted the woman from the car and No. g pulled out.
 Handing her purse and ticket to the little girl, the woman watched the cars go by until the observation car was up to her. Then starting to- ward the track she hurled herself un- derneath and was ground to death by the whels. Anticipating her moth CTS intentions, tn elittie girl endeav- ored to restrain her, but her efforts were unavailing-
 With the woman's body severed just above the hips, the passengers on the observation car were treated to a grewsome sight The body lay face downward. One woman who saw the body tainted, but was quickly revived.
 The train was stopped and the re- mains were gathered up and taken to the Lordsburg depot.
 The pitiful erie sof the motherless passengers.
 T will start a subscription for this poor little girl" remarked a fiorid- faced gentleman, whose general bulk and loud suit might have indicated him to be a racetrack bookmaker, as he pulled of his Panama hat and dropped in a s20 gold piece. Other gold and silver coins fell into the hat in a regular shower as it was passed around and when it was count ed it was found that S197.25 had been raised. This was given to the little girl, who was left in the care of Lordsburg citizens.
