we do need a navy that single hand- ed is capable of dealing with any one power af1oat. Possibly We have 1t now. Certainly ship for ship we are ahead of the best naval powers. But so long as the improvement of the battleships continues, We will have to follow whether we like 1t or not, and this country is rich enough to afford the luxury of being second best, as it were, and of knowing that its territory is measurably safe from assault. We are not hunting trouble in any quarter of the world. But a few millions spent in battleships is an excellent insurance against any power hunting trouble with us. And Admiral Eyanss lament is one that the country would do we'll to heed at the next session of congress when the naval appropriation bill comes up for discussion. .

Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs Will Contest

Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs Will Contest
 Settlement of Husbnnd's Estnte.
 NEW YORK. Sept. 1.-The will of Hermann Oelrichs, the New York mil lionaire, who died at sea last week. has been filed in the surrogate's court. It cuts of his wife and young son and leaves the entire estate to his brother, Charles NJ. Oelrichs, and his sister, Mrs. William Jay.
 The news caused sensation in soci- ety circles. although there had been rumors that the will would cut Ofr the wife. who was the elder daughter of the late Senator Fair of California. No one had dreamed. however. that Mir. Oelrichs would ignore his son in the distribution of the estate. as 1t was supposed that he was satisfied with the arrangement whereby his wife was to take care of the lad.
 Mrs. OeIrichs will contest the will. This statement was made positively by friends who know her attitude.
 Mir. oelrichs left an estate of at least S10.O0o.Oc0. and it is thought she was done a great wrong when her hus- band cut her of without cent
 For years Mir. and Mrs. Oelrichs have rarely been together. She was at Newport and in this city while he was in California. Irreconcilsble differ- ences Of temperament separated them.

Some uneasiness has been caused at the state department by the report that the insurrection in Cuba was by no means allayed and that the insur- gents were fitting out warships in the United States with view to making
 trouble along the Cuban coast. There are at least two, and possibly three vessels, now in New York harbor for which the Cuban junta has been ne- gotiating. The plan of the insur- gents is to get one of these vessels ready in time to gobble the Maria Herrera, a Cuban government craft which is now loading with arms and ammunition in New York. A firm of international detectives, who have been employed for years by Santa Domingo, Haiti, Brazil and other turbulent Latin-American republics have been keeping watch on the jun tas agents and they have cabled to Havana that the Maria Herrera is likely to be attacked on her way home. Of course, if anything like proof can be presented that the ves- sells in question intend to attack friendly power as Cuba is, it will be up to this government to prevent their sailing, but such proof Is rather hard to produce and 1t is quite pos sible that the vessels may arm and slip out of New York harbor making serious trouble both for the Cuban and for the United States.

 If there should be any truth in the reports of an agreement between Murphy and Mcclellan, the effect on the democratic convention probably would be very important. It would mean that the Tammany vote would be cast neither for Jerome nor Hearst, but for some candidate who has not yet appeared in the field, and the strength of the Tammany influence Is such that 1t would be very likely to have its way.-Buffalo Express.
 If you wish to build up your town go and build home. If you don't want to build, buy one already built. Someone has got to start building soon, and the quickest way is for the individual to apply his rent toward something lasting. in the shape of betterment of conditions.

Admiral Evans.s remark at

Admiral Evans's remark at the naval review that he wished the United States could put twice as many warships on parade. shows at least that he is not afraid to voice his convictions. There Is not much partisanship in the demand for a larger navy. Other powers are al- ready far ahead of us in sea power and 1t is only through sea power that We can either be touched by a for eign enemy or can defend our present possessions. says a Washington writ CT. Whether it was wise for us in the first place to accumulate terri tory outside the continental limits of the United States may De left out of the question Whether 1t was wise or not. we now have the in- sular possessions and there is no question about our holding on to them. To defend them we need a navy and while we have one now that is as good as the best sO far as it goes. we are still certainly third and probably fourth in the Est of naval powers With Great Britain it Is not likely that re shall ever catch up. She has established the two power stsndard- and it is not likely that she will ever let any two powers with whom she may he at var accumulate a navy that on paper is stronger than her single feet.

The Coal Trade Journal says il

The Coal Trade Journal says that taking the country over, it can be said that the cost of mining bitumin- ous is about 60 cents per ton, to which is to be added 50 per cent, or one-half, for other labor costs, mak- ing a total labor cost of 90 cents. So that, with meager allowance for de- preciation, the operator only gets new dollar for an old one when sell ing for $1 a ton at the mines, a rate frequently reached. On the other hand, while we can set down the cost of mining anthracite. also, at about 60 cents per ton. there is an addi- tional labor cost as mining rate for same. making a total labor cost of something less than $1.S0. An in- teresting point. as we view it, is the fact that the extra labor cost on hard coal, over and above cost of mining. is four times the extra labor cost on soft coal. It is by no means as easy to decide the minimum price at which anthracite can be sold as 1t is to de- eide the minimum price at which bituminous can be profitably sold. for the fact that a certain percentage of the anthracite must admittedly be sold at a loss puts very interesting problem in mathematics before the investigator who would decide the figure at which the varying percent age of profitable sizes can be dis posed of without loss on the output considered as a whole.

COBB IS REELECTED
Maine Decides on Continua-
 tion of Prohibition.
DAVIS, DEMOCRAT, GETS LARGE VOTE
Congressman LittleAeld Wins Seat Notwithstanding That Gompcrs and Labor Vote Was Pitted
 Against Him.

PORTLAND, Me. Sept. 1l.-Govcrn. or William T. Cobb of Rockland. Re publican, standing on n platform de voted almost exclusively to continu. ance of the proflibitory law of the state, has been reelected by a plural. !ty of less than 5000, with but few ex. captions the smallest margin of votes ever given Republican governor In the state of Maine.
 Cyrus w. Davis of Waterville. the Democratic candidate for governor. boiled one of the largest votes in the history of the party in this state. His issue in the campaign was the resub- mission of the liquor question. which was incorporated in the state legisla- ture four years ago.
 More interesting from a standpoint of view was the reelection of Con- gressman Charles E. LIttlefeld, Repub- lican. of the Second district by great ly reduced plurality. Congressman Lit tlefeld's candidacy was the subject of bitter opposition on the part of sam uel Gcmpers. president of the Ameri- can Federation of Labor. who asked for his defeat on the grounds that he had voted against certain organized la- bor measures at the last session of congress.
 The issue between Gompers and Lit tlefield was taken up by the Repul,- iican congressional committee. and for three weeks the district has been the scene Of hard fight. in which Secre- tary of War William H. Taft. Senator Lodge and Senator Beveridee and sev- eral congressman were pitted against the head of the Federation of Labor.
 Mir. LIttIefrId's plurality Is estimated at about 1000 Congressman Edwin C. BurIeigh of Augusta. Republican. was reelected In the Third district by an estimated plurality of 2Oo and Con gressmsn LleweIlyn Powers of Houl- ton. Repubrican. fn the Fourth district by q plurality estimated al 2.0c0 The reelection of Congressman A. l.. Allen of Alfred in the First district is claim d by the Re2Ghiscan leaders

The announcement has been made to the marine hospital service that a cure for leprosy has been discovered in the leper colony of the Massachu- sets coast. This claim has frequent ly been made, one of the last such discoveries hailing from the leper colony in Louisiana. The marine hos pital service expressed itself as. much interested in the announcement, but Surgeon General Wyman says that personally he would rather see lep- rosy cured than to hear it talked about.
