WANT SPEEDY SUBMARINES.
Russians want Vessels Which Are
 Fast.


 Fast.
 St. Petersburg. Tuesday. Nov. 16- Contracts are about to be placed by the Russian navy for two submarines which, If the builders promises are fulfilled. are the conditions necessary for the most successfully tactical utilization of thess craft. viz:
 The ability to, cruise and manenver in company with a battieship fleet.
 The builders spsciffcst tichs fcails for a boat of e31- tons. an over all length of fss feet, 9 inches and for guarari- teed speed of 1T 1-2 knots on the sur face and II 1-2 knots completely sub merged: This speed would enable the submarines to keep company with bat tleships of the older types at all speeds and with those of the dread nought class, except when the latter are steaming under forced draft, usually only when actually engaged.
 Hitherto naval experts have believed fifteen knots the maximum speed which could be developed in sub marines. owing to the absence of a satisfactory type of engine for both surface and submerged propulsion.

 Is sure to get hurt. Therefore. as to the rival factions. he is determined to remain neutral But this does not solve hts problem as to legislation. A member of the administration disclosed to me today several interest
 ing facts.
 First-Fear of former President Roosevelt coming in with a grand rush and capturing the nomination In 1s12 is now dominant note in all White
 House philosophy.
 Second-Fear that success Of the
 opposition in the congressional eiec- tions next year would surely make triumph of the ''returni from Elba" Is another specter which stalks at the
 White House.
 Third--In the same quarter much comfort is found in the reflection that If the present prosperity of the conn. try continues few years longer-and there is every indication that 1t will --the people are likely to forget all their grumblings and grouches, all their tariff discontent and Joe Cannon
 Aldrich disgust, all their yearnings for the man who stfrs things up. and
 does 1t often, and settle down to en-
 joy the good times that have come with the easy going successor of the
 trouble maker.
 And this rapid- moving picture of the high lights and deep shadows of
 life in the American capital tells
 plainly enough that for the impartial observer. the unafriad analyist. the in- dependent watchman within the gates who has no other master than the
 reading public which stands without
 and sends him hither as It's servant.
 there is sure to be plenty to do as the months roll by and the sparks fly upward.

full service to the church from that
time to the present. In order to give
such long and continuous work proper
recognition, a celebration was given
yesterday in which his people and 9TH
ers from abroad participated. Father
Zaiser, of Muscatine, who used to be
a priest at Extra and Father Fallen
schmid, of Portsmouth, who was Faith
er Weiland's immediate predecessor.
and Father Mcdonald, of Audubon,

of the occasion. Three brothers and
a nephew from Carroll passed through

met at two OF his public receptions,
the last one just week before the

his friends was acting as super" on
that eventful night. A wire run from
the rear of the stage in Growers Thea

great tragedy was enacted. The news
came to them at once and the supers"

half away. where they saw and heard
the excitement caused by a shot that
echoed around the world.
