TRIP AROUND WORLD
WRECKED THE NAVY
New York Paper Prints Sensa
ti0naI Article.

New York, April 30.-The World
prints the following story:
The navy department has an
nounced that the sixteen battleships
which made the trip around the world
are to be remodeled, thus practically
confirming the reports current since
the return of the fleet that the voy
age practically wrecked the navy.
Since the return of the fleet it has
been reported at various times that
masts had been sprung, plates loos
ened and that the intricate electrical
machinery, including the fire control,
was hopelessly out of order and other
things had happened. Nevertheless.
the navy department insists the ships
stood the voyage better than expect
ed, which leaves to the imagination
what the original expectation or fear
had been.
1t is proposed to make of the six
teen battleships type something like
the old Monitor, save that the new
type will have more freeboard. All
the cumbersome superstructure which
at present adorns the battleships and
which affords splendid mark to the
enemy's guns will be taken off.
All that will appear above the decks
will be turret fore and aft and the
tunnels for boilers and the wire
waste basket" type of mast, which
will be used for the lOokouts.
1t is fine food for the critics of the
navy department that of the twenty
five first class battieships in the navy
only four are in condition for service.
They point out the fact that the Amer
lean citizens in Asiatic Turkey are
compelled to look for protection of
their lives and interests to such Brit
ish battleships as are in the Mediter-
ranean waters.

may have been heretofore or shall
hereafter be stocked with wall
eyed pike fry of the game and

any time, or shall cause to be
shipped or have in possession with
intent to ship for purpose of sale to
any person either within or without
the state any such fish or have
any such wall-eyed pike in his
possession except during the season
for taking same. r.
Another amendment which the
the legislature made this winter was
that no person should catch, take or
kill any fish in any lake or stream
within fifty feet of any fshway, or
have IN his possession or in his con-
troll any fish so caught, taken or
killed. Prior to the adoption of this
amendment this winter the law pre-
scribed that no person should fish
within 400 feet of a fishway. This
section of the law is construed to in
clude fishing within fifty feet of a
dam whether the dam is provided
with a fshwaY or not.

the snout to the fork of the tail.
The law also specifically states
that no person shall take or kill
more than twenty-five fish, except
sunfish, perch, pickerel or bullheads,
in any one day; nor in any other
manner than by angling for them
with a hook and line held in the
hand, or attached to a rod so held,
or with a line with more than
one hook attached thereto; and it
is unlawful to have any fish in
ones possession caught otherwise
than prescribed in the law.
The law remains unchanged
relative to pickerel, suckers, red
horse, carp and bullheads, which
may be taken with spear without
limit at any time, but no artificial
lights shall be used in taking said
fish during the months of May and
June, each year.
At the session of the legislature.

a bill forbidding the sale of pike,
