Representative Hobson. who may be regarded as an authority in naval matters. thinks that the bat- tleships now in The Pacific should remain in that ocean. He points out that within two or three years a pOwerful maritime nation has arisen in the Orient. and that this nation is backed by a great standing army always in readiness 10 cooper ate with the feet. and he lays parii- euIar emphasis on the fsrt that the strength of the English navy once dspIoyed in Oriental waters is now conveniently in the Mediterranean or near the British channel to watch the srovfng strsnsh of the German navy. His concl1sioa is that it isl

necessary to our safety to maintain Ia fleet in the Pacific Ocean and to build. as quickly as possible, a pow erful fleet for the protection of our Atlantic seaboard, There was a time when the presence of the pow erful British navy with strong rep resentation by French, German and Russian gunboats in the Oriental waters neutalized the preponderance of Japan. Now our own navy is the only one. it may be said, of any importance in these waters, except that of Japan.

Is that injunction plank the rock on which the republican party is go- ing to split and perhaps founder. It is certainly giving the men who run the old ship plenty of trouble at Chicago, and even though it is set tied satisfactorily it is going to leave bad taste in the mouth. Some Waterburians are not backward about expressing themselves, and if they had a chance to vote for the anti fellows 1t would not be in the affirmative.

 Hard Task.
 New York. June 1S.--Although many of the inhabitants of this city do not know it, they are in danger today of capture by an armed enemy. Not a real enemy, of course. but a mimic one. The waters surrounding the city and the forts protecting them are to- day the scenes of the war game" planned to test the efficiency of the city's defenses.
 Booming of big guns and real pro- jectiles skimming over the water made the shore residents and passengers on the outgoing Lusitania think that real war had been declared suddenly. The men and women on board the big liner evidently had forgotten there was mimic war on, for they were frightened when the vessel stopped suddenly and the forts kept on firing.
 Lusitania Near Line Of Fire.
 The Lusitania was passing through the Narrows when the big twelve inch guns of Forts wadsworth and Ham, ilton opened fire. The proJectIles from the guns of Fort Wadsworth were headed toward a target near Coney Island, while those from Fort Hamil- ton were aimed in the direction of Sandy Hook. The forts kept on firing for twenty minutes. after which the liner proceeded on her voyage. It was said by the officers of the forts that the vessel was in no danger. for they were careful to stop firing whenever any ship approached the danger zone.
 It was reported in Forts Totten and Schuyler that the hostile feet" of two tugboats had been sighted in the sound and that the enemy was lodging in and out of the inlets awaiting a favor able opportunity to attack the forts and then sail trfumphsntly into New York harbor.
 Attack Comes Todsy.
 The general belief among the of- ficers and soldiers Is that the fleet will attack the forts within the next twenty-four hours and that the fight will bs sn unusually hot one. The enemy. Of course. win try to send landing parties ashore before the biz guns of the fort begin to annIhIlate the fleet" and sfter the men land there Will be pitched battles between them and the men of the forts.

BOSTON CONSOLIDATED.
General Manager II. lIanchctt Writes
To IL Shareholder.

Lafayette Hanchctt, general manager
of the Newhouse mines. is reported -
have written the following to an east
ern shareholder OF Boston Consolidated:
The Boston Consolidated company
met with some unusual experiences in
opening it's porphyry mine, which
prevented realization of expected re-
suits as early as anticipated
The property is 50 large that the
fact that we met with a discovery of
some undesirable ore at one point only
served To delay us until The mine could
be opened at another point, and I am
pleased to tell you that the mill is be-
ing supplied with 1900 tons daily of ore.
from which we cun earn a profit AMI
we hope not later than February next
to supply the mill to its full capacity
With this class OF ore.
''The mill itself is doing splendid
work and no question remains az to the
success OF the property. The only uues-
ton now for our attention is the re-
duction of mining costs, and this can
be accomplished very rapidly as Slopes
advance in size and extent"
