CAPTAIN REEFS NAME
IN ADMIRAL GRADE

In addition to the promotion of Capt.
John Hubbard to be a rear-admiral on
the retirement of Rear-Admiral Me
Lean, the fact which was overlooked
last week should be stated that Capt.
Corwin P. Rees, an additional number,
receives promotion to the grade of rear
admiral, says the Army and Navy Jour

Cruiser of the Future.
WASHINGTON, October 29.-The re-
markable speed shown by England IS
class of Dreadnought cruisers, such as
the Iniexible and the Invincible, nat
urally is the cause of some concern to
other naval Powers. For a number of
years the question of the comparative
value of speed without heavy guns, and
heavy guns without great speed, was
discussed with considerable thorough
ness. In this particular case, however,
it must be remembered that England
has sacrificed neither speed nor gunfre
to any large degree; in the Invineible
type she has them both. In other
words, she has a class of heavy vessels,
heavily armed and heavily armored, and
also capable of maintaining a speed OF
something in excess of twenty five
knots. What, then, would be the re-
suit. if an Invincible came in contact
with, say, an American Connecticut or
Louisiana? The question is taken up
by Machinist s Mate Marley of the
Kansas, who, in a letter to the Scientific
American, comes to the conclusion that
if the Inflexible closed in to a range of
5000 yards and sought to overwhelm
the American battleship by the mere
concentration of her eight 12-inch guns,
the terrible broadside of the Connecti-
cut s four 12-inch, four S-inch and six
finch guns would completely overcome
the British battleship-cruiser Even ad-
hitting that the finch guns of the Con-
necticut are protected with compare
lively light armor, still the tremendous
rate of fire of that battery, in addition
to that of the other two batteries, would
so blind the gunners of the enemy that
they would be unable to handle their
guns properly. Even up to 5000 yards
he thinks the S-inch and finch guns
would be very effective in carrying
away the upper works of an enemy. thus
destroying his ability to handle his ship.
He believes the Infexible can not fire
all her 12-inch guns on both broadsides.
because of the position of the wing tur-
rets, and, if this is true. he holds that
the superiority of the Infexible would
he chiefly in her speed Whatever be
the actual superiority Of the battleship
over the new type cruiser. the signif-
cant thing about these discussions as
to relative power is that they indicate
very clearly that the new type of
cruiser is so powerful that it is a ques.
ton whether the cruiser idea is giving
way to the battleship idea. or whe-h her
the battleship is modifying the cruiser

Willie Vida, George Kaea, Sam Apo
Iona and George Kekipo will not have
a new trial. The motion for such was
denied Saturday by Judge De Bolt,
and Attorney Achi has been given
thirty days to file a bill of exceptions.
This means that the supreme court
will probably have chance to get
acquainted with the fascinating game
of seven-eleven and the ms and outs
of it, and the ms and mostly outs of
its devotees.
One of Achi's principal reasons why
a new trial should be granted was that
one of the jurymen was a police of

TO LIST THE NEVADA CON.
ON N. \. STOCK EXCHANGE
Understood Merger With Utah Co. Is
Entirely Of-Made Known That
Nevada Investors Have APP
piled to Big Board.

The Utah-Nevada Consolidated
merger is entirely off, says the New
York Commercial, continuing as fol-
lows:
That was the news that got our
strong in the financial district last
night. In the afternoon, when it be-
came known that the Nevada Con-
solidated board had made applica-
ton to list the stock on the big ex-
change, the market quotations be-
gan to register the unannounced
merger-off news. Nevada sold at ~
at the close. 1t had been inactive
and dragging all week.
It is said that the Guggenheims
gave up the contest and Utah with
drew unreservedly its proposition
to absorb Nevada Consolidated at the
ratio of 2A shares of the latter for
one of Utah. Thereupon, the direct
ors OF the Nevada Consolidated
adopted the resolution to- list their
stock on the New York Stock Elk
change. 1t was said that as a mining
company Nevada Consolidated would
go it alone.
The information was not given out
until yesterday that the Nevada Con-
solidated Co. directors at their meet
ing Tuesday had adopted a resolu-
ton instructing the president and
treasurer of the company to make ar
rangements at once for the listing OF
the stock on the New York Stock Elk
change. No mention was made OF
this step on Tuesday afternoon when
directors were questioned concerning
the proceedings. The announcement
of the proposed listing, which was
made about noon yesterday, aroused
no little interest in financial circles
and there was much guessing as to
it's significance.
why is it proposed to list Nevada
Consolidated on the Stock Exchange
if it is to be absorbed by Utah Cop
per. when Utah already is listed on
the big board !" was the question ire
uuently asked by the wizards, VINO
have been following the Guggen-
helm merger deal. Some were in
clined to regard the action OF the di-
rectors as indicating that the Gug-
genheim interests had given UP the
attempt to put Nevada Consolidated
into Utah Copper.
1t was learned yesterday afternoon
that the resolution to list the STOCK
was offered by w. Hinckle Smith OF
Philadelphia, n of the leaders in
the opposition to the Utah Copper
merger. In spite of the fact that a
majority of the directors present
were Guggenheim men the resolution
YVES adopted unanimously.
It was said at the Offices of James
Phillips, Jr., president of the Ne
vaia Consolidated company, that
str ong protests from stockholders
s.gain the absorption of the company
,y Utah Copper are pouring in in
large numbers.
