there was delay in beginning the case In

I'VE did not expect this, declared Mr. Hawley,

large mustache.
The next witness was Dan" Gainey. of Walla

THAT there were defects in the Oregon class aa

consplcuously superior in fact that class was re-
ferred to by the leading British technical papers
at the time as the peerless battIeship and the
interior arrangement and other points were of spe-
cial excellence.
II is true that their armor was badly placed but
that arose from the addition to the ships of a
great amount OF material stores and machinery not

they lack balanced turrets but when they were

GERMAN VETERANS LIVING ABROAD.
New Citizenship Law Will Not Affect Them
Adversely, Mr.. Hunt Exnlains.

Washington. July 1S.--Since the Civil War many
veteran Union soldiers Of German birth have
drifed back TO the mother country. where they are
spending the declining days of their life in COM
parative comfort on pensions Most Of them we're
naturallzed before they returned. and are greatly
perturbed over the citizenship law fearing the
loss of their acquired naturalization.
Inquiry at the State Department led to-day to a
statement from GailIard Hunt. chief of the cit-
against the law show a general Insunder-
standing OF its intent and purpose. Mr.. Hunt de-
clared that no genuine American citizen-that is to
say, no person of native birth and no one who aC-
quired American citizenship with legitimate pur-
"a to become actual citizen-need have any
apprehension that he will suffer under the new
law.
1T Will separate the sheep from the goats he
said. and the sheep will have better protection
than before. The that will have cause
TO fear the law IS he who became naturalized in
this country with the deliberate purpose of return
Ing to the country of his origin live and to en-
gage in business permanently. and TO secure there
by exemptions from military service and other liza
hilities Of native citizenship"
The invitation TO Americans resident abroad to
register periodically with the American consul
letos. Mr.. Hunt pointed out, was simply a revival
of one Of the old consular regulations The regis
tration was part Of the legal evidence 10 show the
intent OF n person TO retain his citizenship. and
while important, not absolutely essential. Mr..
Hunt suggested that neither the State Department
nor the new law eXpatriated the man. who did that
himself by his affirmative act. and. If he did
not intend 10 do So. he could easily nrove the fact
and retain hts citizenship
The pensions of the old soldiers referred to- Mr.
Hunt said. were not large. and, If the veteran had
not the means to return TO the United States to
live, that fact would be taken under consideration
that he honestly desired to retain his American
citizenship.

ment; the combination of mathematics and

hnation Of the departments Of English and

partment of physical training are not annrovad
The board holds that the course of study in
mathematics Is well devised for the needs Of
the academy, and that too much time is not
allotted 10 this department, but a complete re-
vision of the textbooks is suggested bv which
the work OF the midshipmen can be much sim

Mr.. Heinze An examination of the United Cop

success and prosperity. In one instance alone
Heinzes good fortune exceeds anything in his
previous career-the purchase and development
of the Ohio mine in Utah. Already in this mine
is developed an actual mountain of copper ore
600 feet long. 100 feet wide and l.O00 feet
deep. The Ohio will produce 2O.OO0O0O pounds
of copper in 190S and 4000OOO0 pounds in 1903.
And IL viii not be many years until its output
will rival Anaconda or Calumet and Heca. But
little more than year ago Mr.. Heinze sold
portion of his Butte properties 10 the Amalga-
mated Copper Company, and since that sale 10
has developed in the Ohio alone much greater
productive copper mnes-far more valuaole
than those he disposed Of in the settlement or
