The cork oak, from the bark OF

About twenty years is required for
the tree to reach the commercially

OVER 400 TUlS Of
FORMIDABLE NAVAL Strength
An Interesting Comparison OF do
Fighting Forces of the Sean
That Orc Owned by United
States and Japan.

A comparison of the naval
strength of Japan and the United
States is doub1y interesting in view
of the recent departure of the Ameri-
can fleet of battleships for the Pa
cific. and the Significance which has
been attached to this event. The
American navy has on its list 29
battleships Of 10000 tons and over.
while Japan has 13; our navy has
we have 15 armored cruisers, Japan
13. But in the number of torpedo
boats and torpedo boat destroyers
Japan is far ahead. She has 79 tor
pedo boats and 81 torpedo boat de-
stroyers. while the United States has
only 33 torpedo boats and FL tor
pedo boat destroyers. On the other
hand, Japan has only 9 submarines
while We have 10.
In the cost of battleships of our
navy the Connecticut and the Kansas
lead the others, the former costing
$7.667. .606. and the latter $7.071.-
143. The cost of maintenance of
each type OF warship is as follows:
Battleships, 1896, 6,587.12; armored
cruiser, 55.151.47: protected cru
iser. $583,002.26; gunboat. $115.-
5S5.12; torpedo boat destroyer, $77,-
354.22; torpedo boat, $51.650.9S;
submarine. $26, 6,454.10.
The total number of ships In the
American navy is 16S; In the navy
of Great Britain. 454; in the French
navy, sos: In the navy of Germany,
21O, and Japan has 1874. 1t will thus
be seen that while the United States
has the least number of ships OF
these five powers, she is still second
in rank by her comparative strength
in battleship tonnage. Great Brit
aims tonnage is S21.390; United
States, 406.146: France. 368. 8.461;
Germany. 35S.461; Japan, 191,49S.
The reason of the excess of ships
in the French navy is found in the
fact that she has 271 torpedo boats
and 80 submarines, while England
has only II torpedo boats and 4S
submarines. and the United States
only 33 torpedo boats and 10 sub
marines.-Harpers Weekly.

MIDDLEsWEST SOUNDINGS
Hitchcock Talks 5cith State Chair
men an Preparing Forecast.

Chairman Hitchcock Of the Republican National
Committee had half dozen state chairrnen on the
long distance telephone yesterday and heard tha
latest news Of the situation in aI the Middle West
ern states. He will make forecast OF the election
the latter part Of the week and he said IA st nieh
that II would he based very substantial grounds
AS foreshadowed in The Tribune on Sunday the
forecast by the national chairman will be very
optimistic 1t is understood that the national com
nlittee viii claim about a4 or 31a electoral votes
for Taft and Sherman
From the leaders OF the party IN Missouri the
reports are far more optimistic than thew have
been hitherto, he said and IN consequence he was
almost tempted to expect that state to show IN
in the Republican column. He did not eYpect TO
carry Kentucky, but believed there was promise
OF few electoral votes there for the Republican
ticket and Mr. Hitchcock added that Tennessee
also apparently was preparing some surprises
As TO Ohio there was declared to be no worry
II vas described as absolutely safe Nor was
Indiana giving the Republican chairman any con-
Germ, but he vas not hopeful. he said of Mon
tana and Nevada. However. these latter two were
the only states west of the Mississippi that were
tn doubt. according 70 his way OF thinking.
New York was declared 70 be like Ohio namely
absolutely safe. Both Mr.. Taft for the Presidency
and Governor Hughes for re-electian were said 10
be assured OF victory at the polls IN this state.
