PRICELESS PANEL SEIZED
Genuine Michael Angelo, Says
Claimant of Painting.

At the Appraisers Stores experts are
puzzling over a painted panel that was
brought from Trieste on the steamship
Oceania by the steward. captured by a
customs watchman at the Bush docks,
in Brooklyn. where the Oceania tied up,
and seized by Collector Loeb's inspectors
because it was not declared. The paint
ing was addressed to A L. Gereis, of this
city. Mr.. Gereis was sent for. He de-
clared that the painting was a genuine
production of Michael Angelo and Of
priceless value.
The government obtained from Mr..
Gereis the information that the painted
panel had been the property of relatives
for many years. and that they had sent
il as belonging rightfully to him. If
the experts at the Appraisers Stores are
satisfied that the painting is more than
twenty years old it viii De surrendered

improvements in Armament,
Speed and Endurance EN-
bodied in Designs.
From The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington. May 10.-The Naval Cen
eral Board has before it the tentative
designs of the new battleships, the con-
struction of two of which Congress will
authorize at the present session. The
naval constructors have completed the
provisional plans. which have gone to
the General Board, as is usual each year,
for the determination of military feat
ures. Instructions have again been
given that the chief characteristics and
special qualifica tions of these new ships
shall be regarded as government secrets,
and il is purposed to impart no informa-
ton relating to them, although there is
a suspicion that those who are particu-
larly interested in finding out anything
about the vessels will gain access to all
the statistics they desire.
The new ships will be one thousand
tons greater displacement than the Ar
kansas and the Wyoming, which are of
10000 tons. and it is purposed to use
this increased displacement in adding to
the armament, and SO increasing what
NAV be called the hitting power of the
new ships. There will be at least ten
14-inch. instead of twelve 12-inch, guns,
which is the armament of the battle
ships authorized last year. Ten 14-1nch
guns are regarded as better than twelve
1a-inch guns, but it is also recognized
that advantages gained in one way must
be lost in another. It would be possible
to have more 14-inch guns, but it is
altogether a matter of weights. Any
thing added to one characteristic must
he offset by a reduction in the weight Of
another feature.
It is desired to increase tie hitting
power of the new ships, and maintain the
sneed and. if possible increase the en-
durance. The latter feature is brought
about bv increased capacity for the
storage of coal The new ships Will en-
brace the best features In construction
and in military way They viii have

FREEDOM IN CHINA
Imperial Decree to Emancipate
Millions of Slaves.

Washington, May 10.-The- Chinese
government by imperial rescript has
abolished slavery throughout the en-
pire and has prohibited henceforth the
purchase and sale of human beings
under any pretext. The reform. how
ever is not altogether complete, as by
the rescript certain forms of slavery will
still be tolerated. In a report made to
the State Department it is stated that
the retainers of Manchu princes are not
emancipated, but it is forbidden to call
them slaves. They have long enjoyed
educational and other privileges. al
though still bound to their hereditary
masters
The household slaves OF the Manchus
are also not emancipated, but their
status under the law is improved. They
are TO be regarded as hired servants.
but their service is due for an unlimited
term Of years, so that they are in re-
ality perpetual slaves. Under this re-
script the immemorial practice of selling
children in China in times of famine is
for a specified term, but never beyond
the age of twenty-five.
Concubinage is still to be permitted,
but there is to be no bargain and sale.
Such concubines are to be married with
proper legal formalities, and they viii
enjoy the protection OF the law, but in
reality they Will be no better than per-
petual slaves to the principal wife.
The rescript is said to be a compromise
measure, but it will eventually give free
dom to millions of human beings, and is
declared to mark a distinct advance in
civiliza ton.
