TEXAS OUT OF NAVY.
Hoodoo Battleship, First of Armorclads,
Out of Commission.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-The battleship
Texas, second class, and the first armor-
clad vessel Of the modern navy, has
been ordered placed out of commission at
the Norfolk Navy Yard. For more than a
year the Texas has been in reserve, and
since the opening OF the jamestown ter
centennial she has been at anchor In
Hampton Roads.
The Texas has had an unfortunate
career in the navy ever since she was
launched. Although she took a somewhat
conspicuous part in the battle OF Santiago,
she has always been regarded as a hoo
doc.
What disposition will be made of the
vessel has not been decided on. Several
States have asked that she be assigned to
them for the use OF their naval militia.
