The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1909-10-09

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. "a
Japanese government announces in
tention of building 36,0O0-ton cruis-
ers.
This nine-word cablegram from To-
kyo, received at the navy department,
has set experts thinking.
What effect on future wars will
S6,000-ton cruisers have? What does
Japan want with warships heavier
than the Dreadnought and larger
than the Mauretania?
When, short while ago, the Brit
bish admiralty designed the great
Dreadnought with it's 1900 tons bur
den, naval experts thought the last
word in sea fighting had been said.
United States, doubtless with some
such idea in mind, authorized the
construction of two great 'superdread-
noughts" Delaware and the
North Dakota now launched and near
ing completion. They are battleships
not cruisers, like the Japanese are
\ planning.
The biggest cruiser In the world
at present is the British ship Irwin

proposed Jap leviathan.
The Invincible has great speed,
equal almost to that of the Lusitania
and the Mauretania. and carries a
formidable armament that would have
put 1t in the battleship class ten
years ago.
Fastest U. 8. Ship.
The fascist ship in the United
States navy is the scout cruiser
Chester, with a displacement of less
than one-fourth that of the Invincible
-one-eighth that of the new Japa-
nese war creature. The Chester has
made q knots an hour in practice
a little faster than the Mauritania.
Two great problems are put up to
the United States navy by the an
nouncement Of the mikado's advisers
One is that of naval construction.
The other-What will Japan do with
her fighting machine?
Such a giant would cost nearly
$4,000, 000-enough to found and en-
dow a university.

But what Of the Japanese ships?
What new principles and improve
ments will they have?
In the first place, they will have
greater speed. They will be able to
destroy a smaller ship and rush swift
ly away before a contending fleet.
They would be able to overhaul the
fastest boats of both big oceans
like the Mauretania and the Mime
sofa.
ocean travel in time of war, with
one of these monsters in pursuit,
would be full of error
The Mauretania, fastest and great
est ship in the world, has maximum
speed of 25 knots an hour Her hull
is 100 feet long. Her gross tonnage
is $4,000. Her extreme breadth is
IS feet and her greatest draught 81
feet inches.
In every respect save possibly
speed. the new leviathan of Japan
will equal the Mauretania and will
surpass her in gross tonnage by 1000
tons. And a steamer of 1000 tons is
a great ship.
There is another interesting COM
Harison in the new boats size with
the Dreadnought. She will be twice
as heavy, will have equal speed, and
will be at least one-third again as
long. In place of the Dreadnought's
tripod masts, she will have the las
ket masts, like the new United States
warships.
What does Japan intend to do with
her big cruiser?

question is formidable. Big battle

 OF DISPLEASURE

PARIS, July 29.--Private advices re- ceived here from Madrid say the feel ing in Spain against the war on Riff coast is strong. and widespread and it is doubtful whether Premier Maura will be able to weather the storm.
 The masses are described as being hostile to war, the purpose of which they do not comprehend and which they suspect of being the outgrowth of min ing speculation.
 The country recalls the 1859 and 1893 experiences and the fury of the Kabyle tribesmen and long, costly and bloody campaign in Africa has no temptations for people who have drunk to the dregs of colonial adventure.
 The position of General Marina, com mander of the Spanish forces in Mo rocco, is described as being inherently weak. He must maintain his base at Melilla aud hold Mount Atalayou, four miles distant, which protects his ad vance post. The intervening country is interspersed with ravines dominated by the foothills of Mount Geruga, of fering a splendid opportunity for sur prises by the Moors.

A CRATER TOWN.
Where the inhabitants Build Ships ln-
 side Extinct Volcanoes.


 Saba. in the West Indies. Is one of the most extraordinary places in the world. By courtesy 1t is called an is- land, but 1t is really nothing more than the summit of an extinct volcano stick ing up out of the sea.
 Inside the crater live the only inhab- itants of Saba. They live there because there is nowhere else for them to live, the outside slopes being nearly as steep as the sides of house.
 The place belongs to Holland, and the people arc all Dutch. Nevertheless they speak English as their native tongue. They call their crater town Bottom because it is situated on the top of mountain.
 Although surrounded on all sides by the sea, they often spend weeks with out seeing it, for that involves long climb up to the rim of the crater. Stlll less frequently do they touch salt water. because to do so they must. in addition, climb downward for a dis tance of 1,500 feet by precipitous rock hewn path known as ''the lad der"
 It is, however, In regard to their sta pie industry that these Dutch people who speal; English and who live aloft in volcano in summit city called Bottom reach the extreme of topsy- turveydom. One might imagine them making balloons or kites or, in fact. anything but what they do make, which is ships-not ocean going liners, but good. serviceable schooners and mggers, whose repute is great all over the Windward islands The ships when finished have to be hauled up to the rim of the crater and then lowered over a precipice into the sea-
