pearlng guns from the hold of the

were finished. and, as the steamers
along the dock have so been moved
that there Will be no further interior
ence with them, the guns can be raised
a fumor has been current the past few
aays that the dock on which the shear
| legs were alleged to have been placed
was not solid. and that it was there
| fore impossible to attempt to raise the
| Dig shooters. According to one water
frontier yesterday, the fine timbers
which now shoot up into the air like a
| pair of scissors would sink down if
the weight of one of the 57-ton guns
were placed on them. This has been de-
med, however, and it is positively
| stated that the work will begin this
morning. 1t will undoubtedly take the
entire day TO lift the guns from the
ship and place them in the stations
that have been prepared
