The Fastest vessel In the World.


During the past year the British
navy has been augmented by eight re
markable vessels known as feet scouts,
which have practically the speed o;
torpedo destroyers, but have sufficient
length and coal capacity to go consid-
cradle distances and not only gain in
formation. but prey upon an enemy's
merchant shipping, says Harper's
Weekly The Attentive, the latest of
these scouts, when recently tested
made record Of 1888 knots on a sus-
tanned run Of six and half hours, dur
ing which a maximum speed of 2614
knots was reached, this being reached
on the last hour Of the trial trip. If de-
stroyers and high speed launches are
excepted this probably makes the At
tentive the fastest vessel in the world
and the representative Of a type which
soon may spread beyond the British
navy.

HIGHWAY FOR AUTOS.
John BrisDen Walkers Plan of Road
From New York to Philadelphia.

John BrisDen Walkers Plan of Road
From New York to Philadelphia.
John Brisben Walker advanced some
novel and interesting ideas regarding
future roads for automobiling the other
night before the members of the Auto
mobile Club Of America in New York.
Mr.. Walker was one of the pioneer
members Of the club. He has devoted
much attention to the subject of spe-
cial motor highways, and his particu-
lar interest in the possibility Of obtain
Ing an automobile highway from New
York to Philadelphia led the officers Of
the club to request a detailed EXPOSE.
ton of his views before the members,
says the New York Times.
Mr.. Walkers plan for the New York
Philadelphia automobile highway pro
vides for road from eighty to hun
dred feet wide, so divided that each
half of the road would contain three
separate automobile tracks, upon which
different speeds would be maintained
There would thus be six tracks In all
and with cars moving 300 feet apart
and carrying an average of eight pas
seNers apiece. He advised making
toll road, charging 80 cents per pas
senger. Upon a large map of New Jer-
sey three possible routes were mapped
out, avoiding large settlements. One,
starting from the foot Of West Forty
second street, would begin at WeehaW-
ken, pass between Hackensack and
Passaic run through the Oranges and
then extend in as straight line as pos
sible to Philadelphia, passing south Of
Bound Brook and north of Trenton.
The other routes would lead across
Staten Island, running south of the
Pennsylvania railroad, the more south
erly Of the two giving access to Phila-
delphia through Camden.
Naturally you want to know the
probable cost of such az undertaking"
said Mr.. Walker. II believe the con-
struction Of the road could be brought
within $4,000 a mile, provided the
rights of way could be obtained with
out cost. That would mean for the
ninety miles between New York and
Philadelphia S04O,OOO. Inc yearly sum
for maintenance ought not to be more
than $4,000. Fifty toll keepers at $500
each would be $4,000 and, figuring In
terest at 6 per cent on the cost of the
road, would bring the annual charges
to SGT, 400. At less than 400 passengers
a day the road would bring in an in
come Of $4,000 a year. comfortable
profit on the investment.
with a proper road, dustless and
having the slightest possible grades, 1t
would insure the maximum Of safety.
Personally 1 would much prefer to
travel to Philadelphia on such q road
than in a railroad train. The middle
track of the road would permit speed
Of fifty miles an hour, so that an auto
mobilist could reach Philadelphia from
New York just as quickly by the high
way as he now does over the rails"

He Wants to Deprive Southern Mills
of Their Advantages.

lie w anus W ApCpIINC oOutHCAA AAAhA7
of Their Advantages.
WASHINGTON, April 9.-The at
tempt of Mr.. Charles A. Prouty, a
member of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, which is trying to get
power to fix railroad rates under the
Hepburn bill now before congress, to
gain support for this bill in New Eng
] land by promising that if the bill was
passed the commission would reduce
! rates on New England products to the
west thus giving New England manu-
facturers great advantage over
southern manufacturers, has attracted
a great deal of attention here. OPP
ponents of the bill are pointing to this
as exactly the sort of thing that would
happen if this commission had power
over rates They say that such a pO-
litical body would so fix the rates as
to give the north and east a decided
advantage over the south.
In his speech in congress last week
Senator Lodge referred specifically to
this point He said:
"Mr. PrOuty's argument made in
Boston was that New England would
be a great deal better off if she could
ONLY have an interstate commerce
commission with larger powers; that
they would give her better rates than
she has now. That was the whole
argument addressed in New England,
and it was an absolutely sectional APP
peal.
"He took his hearers up onto high
mountain and showed them all the
glOries he was going to confer upon
them when these enlarged powers were
placed in the hands of the interstate
commerce commission.
"Mr. Prouty took up the cotton
manufacturing industry in New Eng
land, and he thought that New Eng
land was not treated fairly by the
railroads and intimates that if the
Hepburn bill should be passed the
commission would readjust things.
The mills have the advantage of water
rates for their raw material, but their
rates on finished goods are not as low,
relatively, as Mr.. Prouty thinks they
should be, and he intimates that he
would cut them to a level proportion
ately as far below frst-class rates as
the rates from southern mills are be-
low frst-class rates from southern
points. Notwithstanding the greater
distance from the New England mills,
he does not believe that the southern
roads should be permitted to make
rates enabling southern cotton goods
to compete in Chicago on equal terms
with those of New England. They 60
in now on parity, and he would have
his audience believe that the commits
sion would interfere with the making
of such rates as those on cotton goods
from Atlanta when they are to the dis
advantage of New England, but that
when low rates are made to enable
New England industries to compete in
distantmarkets the commission would
not disturb the adjustment. "

Rapid Progress of RaiIroadfng.

For some years engines have been
taking water without stopping, and
mail cars have been picking mail
sacks from posts without so much as a
pause. Now an appliance for cOaling
engines without stopping has been in
invented, and experiments with it are
said to have been satisfactory. The
next movement to save the running
time of trains will be a device for
throwing passengers on board and of

OFFICERS, THEN

Cairo, Egypt June 14.-Capt s. c. Bull
OF the Sixth Gnniskillng) Dragons was
killed and four other British officers were
badly injured by natives near Tanjab yes
terday during the march of n detachment
OF British troops from here 10 Alexandria.
The fve officers, apparently on the i'm
vitation OF village official, went TO n
hamlet 20 shoot pigeons. The villagers
surrounded the party, deprived the ofri-
GERS OF their guns and attacked them with
bludgeons with the result that Capt. Bull
was killed, another had an arm broken
and the others were badly injured.
The affair appears to be the outcome or
the pan-Islamic campaign carried on dur
