Louisville, KY, Nov. 29.-Greater d.
versif1cation of crops in the southern
states will be the aim of representa-
tives of the Association of Commits
sioners of Agriculture of southern
states who left here today to attend
a convention in Chicago. Members of
the association adopted resolutions last
night in which farmers were urged to
raise more live stock and to devote
increased acreage to the cultivation of
alfalfa, clover and other leguTninous
crops.
A system Of bonded warehouses I'M

necessary means of helping the cotton
farmers to dispose Of their crop at
fair prices The United States depart
ment Of agriculture was asked to
broaden the present system of federal
statistics relating to the cotton indus
try so as to furnish the planters with
detailed information as to the current
requirements of cotton manufacturing
plants in all parts of the world.
1t was decided to hold another con-
ference in Atlanta next spring, the date
to be named by the executive commit
tee.

CRUISER SAN FRANCISCO
IS AN INTERESTING SHIP

the vessel has been planting an aver
age of about ten mines day. but she
is capable of planting as many as
thirty, If necessary.
She is also equipped with an appa-
ratus to drag, the harbor for mines, so
that this vessel can not only plant
mines, but can remove mines placed
there by other ships.
is OLD VESSEL.
While, as stated. the San Francisco
has only been in use as a mine plant
ing ship for a short time, she is one
of the oldest vessels now used by
the United States navy.
Some idea OF the age Of the ship may
be gained from the fact that among
the trophies, (of which she has many
is a handsome cup won at the first In
ternational Regatta in 1S93-twenty
years ago.
In addition to this trophy, the San
Francisco has quite a number Of
others won at various times and
HANDSOME SILVER SERVICE.
The silver service of the San Fran
cicso, which was presented by the
city Of San Francisco, is one of the
handsomest carried by any vessel of
this class and the officers of this ship
TAX egreat pride in exhibiting it.
MODERN IN EVERY RESPECT.
While, as stated, the San Francisco
is a cruiser converted into a mine
modern in every respect and is we'll
equipped throughout.
The San Francisco was not equipped
and is not intended for a, repair ship,
but the machine shops on her are so
well supplied and operated that a con-
siderable amount of repair work can
be done on the boat and she would
have to be in rather serious trouble
to have to call for a. repair ship or go
to a navy yard for repairs.
All of the engines on the boat are
of the most modern horizontal de-
signs having all of the latest equip
ments and improvements.
The vessel has four powerful
search1ights, all of which can be
shifted in any direction by simply
moving a lever.
The San Francisco also has a first
class stadimeter, which was invented
by Capt. Fisk, and which is now in
general use. This is an instrument
used for the purpose of measuring
the distance of one vessel from an
other. If the height of the masts of a
ship are known, the distance can be
measured exactly. while if it can be
estimated, the distance can be esti-
mated so as to aid the men aboard the
San Francisco to q great extent.
This vessel will probably be in this
port. for at least a couple of months
longer and will engage in mine
planting practice almost every day
during that period.

But mine shall be the victory
For which high kings must yearn.

Carries Large Supply of
Submarine Mines, Each
Weighing from Seven to
Eight Hundred Pounds.

with a complement of 237 men and
fitted out adequately for the purpose
for which she is designed, the mine
planting boat San Francisco is one of
the harbor Of Pensacola
There are not many vessels in the
navy Of the exact character Of the
San Francisco and even people who
have visited the various ships which
have been in the harbor here will find
1t interesting to make a tour of in
spection to this membes of Uncle
Sans fleet.
The San Francisco was originally
designed as a cruiser and during the
war with Spain was regarded as one
OF the most modern and best equipped
IN the navy. However, two or three
years ago, she was converted into a
mine planting ship, since which time
she has been used in this capacity.
The San Francisco is under the
command of Capt. VIM. K. Harris,
with Lieutenant w. j. Giles as the
executive officer, and a corps of the
the navy to assist them in the adj
mtnfstration of the affairs of the YES
sci.
In fact, it is doubtful If there have
ever been a crowd of officers in this
city who have made a better impress
sion and who have more admirers
than those aboard the San Francisco,
LARGE OF SUPPLY OF MINES.
The San Francisco carries a large
supply of mines and is equal to al
most any emergency. There are at
present no less than two hundred of
the powerful mines stored on the YES
sci, while she has a reserve of a hun
dred more, so that in case they were
needed, this vessel could furnish three
hundred mines to be planted in the
seas and which could cause a world
of disaster.
The mines carried by this vessel
weigh from seven to eight hundred
pounds each and are supplied with
from $50 to $50 pounds of gun cotton
each. They are of an unusually pow
erful variety and are capable of do
ing great damage.
The mines carried by this vessel
were invented by a Frenchman about
seven years ago but they have been
since they have been in use in this
country.
Each mine is equipped with sala,-
moniac pin, which serves as a safety
gauge, but which corrodes in the water
about twenty minutes, so that one of
them can be discharged after it has
been under the water for that length
of time
The mines, when planted, remain
under the water at a depth of about
five or six feet and when vessel,
or any other object comes in contact
with them, they are discharged. They
are held in position by means of an
anchor.
These mines are so made that they
cannot be counter mined, or fired by
another mine in the vicinity of where
they are planted, which is in itself
quite an improvement over the old
fashioned mines which could be ex-
ploded by setting off other mines near
them.
ALREADY PRACTIcING.

not yet done much maneuvering. the
San Francisco has already engaged in
