PLAN 30,oCo-TON WARsHIP.
Sea Monster for American Navy
Would Be Largest Afoat.

The 3O,OOO-ton sea monster which has
been the dream of the American naval
architect since the British shipbuilders
initiated the struggle for supremacy in
size and power with the launch of the
original Dreadnought, is already being
planned on paper at the Navy Depart
ment, in anticipation of the allowance by
Congress of the departments estimates
for two new battleships These ships will
be about as large as the New York with
a good sized cruiser, like the Olympia,
Admiral Deweys old flagship at the bat
tie of Manila, added to her bulk.
Not only in size, but In other substan-
tial respects will these new battleships
present interesting features of novelty.
Probably they will have fifteen-inch
guns. eight in number for each ship,
which will be by far the most powerful
ordnance afioat in any navy. Some effort
will be made to provide light armor pro-
lection far below the water line to guard
against the projectiles of the new cannon
torpedo. 1t is even suggested that part
of the weight-carrying capacity of the
vast hull be given up to deck armor
thick enough to resist aerial bombs
dropped from aeroplanes in the naval
wars of the future.

All Ports safeguarded.

Strict precautions were taken at all the
ports by the public health service last
year against the introduction of cholera
There were a few cases and a few in
fected vessels that got as far as the
American coast, despite the precautions
taken by the public health inspectors
abroad. But few cases got into this coun-
try and these were segregated and clap
ped into a hospital in New York. 1t was
the first time in history that any country
had ever run a scientific cholera quaran-
tine, and the feature of the story, as a
story, was that there was no story to
print because there was no American
outbreak.
There was great deal more known last
summer about cholera than had ever be-
fore been known from scientific view
point. The public health service found
that there was such a person as a cholera
carrier, just as there are known to he
typhoid carriers" Methods of detecting
these dangerous persons were devised
and the disease was completely shut
out of this country.

VIOLATES HEPBURN LAW
Delaware, LackaWanna and
Western Railroad Company
Fined $4,000.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BUFFALO, n. Y, March aO.-Followine
a verdict of guilty of a charge of vio-
lating the commodities clause of the Hep
burn act, the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western Railroad Company was fined
$1,000 in the United States district court
here yesterday. The company was in
dicted on twenty counts and faced a
maximum penalty of 100000, it being
alleged that it shipped free from Buffalo
to Scranton, Pa, large quantity of hay.
Counsel for the defendant stated that
an appeal would be taken to the United
States Supreme Court to test the con-
stitutionality of the penal feature of the
commodities clause.
First Under Commodities Clause.
Notification of the fine has been re-
ceived at the Offices of the interstate
commerce commission, where it was said
today that the foregoing was the first
criminal prosecution ever instituted
against a railroad for violation of the
commodities clause of the act to regu-
late commerce.
As viewed at the commission the action
of the court means that eventually there
must be a separation of the transporta-
ton and the mining operations of the
Lackawanna. as we'll as of other rail-
roads similarly engaged. They will not
be permitted, under the law, TO trans
port any commodities except lumber
which is expressly mentioned in the act
for in mines. unless the regular trans
portation charges are paid.
In the case in question the prosecution
arose out of the fact that the hay which
was hauled free over. the lines was not
used by the railroad company in the con-
duct of its business as common carrier
but in its business as a miner of coal.

Unable to go to dinner OF a

contributed to the program by sending
a poetic tribute to st. Patrick. in whose
honor the club met Some OF his TRENDS
here who read the poem Immediately
nominated him for poet laureate OF the
lower house of Congress.
Here is the poem:
Saint Patrick was doughty saint
VINO lived long time ago.
Some say he 1rishman
While others say Not So
For my part l believe he was,
And am willing to maintain it,
For if not born to that estate
He travelled far to gain it.
In which case he deserves our praise
For learning very early
That what so many had by Dlrtn
That he must purchase dearly.
If born in land across the sea
Though he did not select it
He at once the great mistake
And fastened to correct 1t.
How Ger he came. by land or sea,
BE- birth immigration.
He left a fame to 1reland's race
Intending in duration.
His single purpose to do GOOD
He fulfilled TO the letter.
And wiatsoe'er was done by him
No mortal could do better.
He marked the way for other men,
In kind deeds done for others,
Which none have followed quite so well
As his Irish brothers.
His snake drive. best of all his WORKS,
is known to fame and story,
But his humber deeds for humble men
Have raised his name to glory.
He's dead and gone-yes, lucky man.
Now patron saint We toast nm,
While IL alive and here tonight
Some guy would surely roast him.

Of public medicine, and (6) the abolition
of police observation over prostitutes
In addition to this, all the woman dep
uties brought in petition for the protec-
ton OF women In the streets from assault,
thus indicating the necessity for adding

with this matter.
Among other women's bills awaiting
