The 27,000-ton super
Arkansas the largest battleship or
the United States navy, ready Tor COM
mission and one Of the most powerful
vessels afoat, suffered just such a rak-
ing blow as sunk the Titanic when
she struck a submerged reef in Penob-
scot Bay, Maine, Sunday afternoon.
Naval constructors said that had
not the Arkansas been subdivided,
double bottomed and equipped with
numerous watertight compartments
she would have sunk as did the giant
liner Instead it is believed that the
ship will be able to go through with
her Standardization trials before be-
ing laid up for repairs.
When passing through the Two
Bush channel entrance to Penobscot
Bay the Arkansas struck rocks about
one-quarter of the way back from the
bow on the left hand side, just under
the turn of the bilge and close to the
keel She bounced along this rect
for a distance of torty-four feet, the
chief strain coming just below the
forward boiler room The damage
consisted of bent plates just above the
keel Eight water-tight compartments
are affected; the outside plating Is
showed up about nine inches toward
the interior or double bottom. The
latter is slightly damaged at the poin
of contact. The result Of the damage
is some small leaks through seams ant
butts, but these are not considered
serious enough for the abandonment
of the trials. although 1t is probable
these eight compartments are full o
water. Unless it is discovered that tn
ships lines have been SO contorted
to reduce her speed below the point o
acceptance. no repairs will be attempt
ed at present.

Matched in the Atlanta prison by the

nate Judge Ray, In whose court they
were convicted: Assistant United States
Attorney Smith. who prosecuted them. and
Chief Flynn Of the secret service at New

prisoners. In this connection a peculiar
circumstance appears As result of the
resignation of one of the secret service

ence has been brought to bear to bring
about an investigation Of the secret serv

Local Launch Inspection.

A witness before the coroner's jury in
curing into the death of two women in
consequence of collision on the river
between steamer and motor launch
TESTIFIED Saturday in the role of an
expert that his own boats, of which he
has from time to time possessed several.
nave never been inspected by an officer
OF the government on the Potomac river.
although on other rivers where he has
operated as a boat owner inspections
have been regular. This raises an i'm
portSnt question which lies outside of the
issue of responsibility in this immediate
case. Is ii fact that the government
steamboat inspection service does not
cover motor boats in these waters? They
are unauestionably under the federal
navigation laws and their owners have
been warned from time to time that they
must comply with certain regulations de-
signed TO diminish danger and safeguard
life. But according TO this witness moth
ing Is done 10 make sure that the boats
are equipped according 10 these rules or
that their owners or users are capable of
operating them safely. This is a serious
state Of affairs If the fact Is as alleged
One would think that here at the cap
ltdl, where CenleES the machinery or
steamboat inspection service, there would
be the most perfect system of scrutiny
TO give assurance of the highest possible
standard Of law observance and conse-
Quently the utmost degree of protection
to life The testimony given before the
coroner's jury suggests that either the
inspection service assigned to this local
district IS too small TOR the thorough ex-
animation of all the craft or that re-
lance is placed in the desire of motor
boat owners to comply with the law
without compulsion. In this particular
instance there was no lack OF equipment,
and as far as the inspection service Is
concerned the absence OF official scrutiny
made no difference Nevertheless the
allegation that local launches or motor
boats are not put through systematic ex-
animation demands immediate official at
tention.

The Quest.

A man once longed for peace complete.
He sought the ocean strand,
Where waves came singing soft and sweet
To the untrodden sand.
But soon they built little town.
Where bands began to play:
And then tidal wave came down
And washed EN- all away.
He sought the wooded mountain height,
To shun the crowds below.
A big hotel soon met his sight
With artificial show;
And next an earthquake shook the place
Until the mountain fell.
The devastation left no trace
OF mountain or hotel.
Out there upon the level plain,
Where far his gaze might roam,
He turned his quest of peace again,
And sought to make a home.
But savage huntsmen round him crept,
Or raised a warrior shout;
And then a cyclone came and swept
The whole collection out.
And when the cyclone dropped the man,
He said Right here I'll stay.
Here will l strive as best | can
To use what comes my way.
From toll and strife l shall not flee,
Nor shirk the issue grim
No more will ! seek peace" quoth he.
And, straightway, peace sought him.

Sicilian Criminals.

Appearance is soon to be made before
the United States Supreme Court in be-
half OF a group of men now held at the
federal prison at Atlanta for the crime of
counterfeiting. \The chief of these men is
Isnazio Lupo, batter known in court and
criminal circles Sas The Wolf" With
him are some OF the most desperate and
crafty of the Sicilian criminals against
whom the law has ever moved in this
country. They are believed to have par
ticipated in several murders. proof of
which. however. has never been obtained
sufficient to secure conviction. The
chief of the federal secret service at
New York declares that these men have
TO his knowledge taken no less than sixty
lives. but owing to the difficulties Of pros
ecution in these crimes. caused by
the fear of vengeance which prevents
witnesses from giving testimony. IL is
almost fuxle to undertake to convict.
Now comes word that a plot has been
