JAPAN BUILDING BATTLESHIPS.
Secret Came Out in Connection Will,
the Navy Contracts.

Washington, March 25.-Three big
battleships. never publicly announc-
ed in her naval program, are under
secret construction by the Japanese
government.
These are in addition to four
dreadnoughts and three dreadnaught
cruisers, which have been publicly
proclaimed.
Altogether, therefore, Japan, is
now found to have under actual con-
struction-how many more is plan
ned is not known-seven dread
noughts, in addition to dreadnought
cruisers and incidental men-of-war.
This outranks the naval program of
any other nation in the world to-
day.
Discovery of the secret building
program has just come about in con-
nection with the navy graft contracts
in Japan, which threaten the down.
fall of the Yamamota ministry. Navy
men in Washington are mystified
over the meaning Of the secret tactics
of the Japanese.
Testifying recently before a COM
mittee of the Japanese parliament,
Admiral Satto, minister of the navy,
BETRAYED the secret of the three ex-
ira ships. In anticipation of expected
appropriations. he said, contracts had
been entered into with the Mitsu BIZ
shi and kawasaki yards for battle
ship each, and one battleship had
been laid down in the government
ward at Yokosuka. These are the
three dreadnoughts the construction
of which had not been announced.
Work on all these has been begun,
Admiral Satto said.
The chief concern of Japanese
statesmen also, it is learned, is that
the exposure of graft in the navy
shall not interfere with the rapid
completion of these three secretly
planned sea fighters, which now
threatens. Previous appropriation
of s45,O0O,O00 cover the estimated
cost of the navy additions which had
been announced.

Negroes Attack a Little White Girl

Atlanta, March PA pretty lit
tie white girl, while walking along
on the Southern railway tracks a
half-mile below the Brookwood
bridge, near Peachtree road, was
brutally attacked late Tuesday after
noon by two blacks, who had con-
cealed themselves behind an en-
bankment.
The negroes dragged her into the
woods at the side of the tracks. at
tempting to strangle her to silence
any alarm, but the girl struggled
fiercely, and the attention of L. c..
Haynes, white man of No. 190
Echo street, was attracted by her
muff1ed cries. He ran to her assist
ance and the blacks fled.
Police headquarters was notified
of the attempt, and half dozen po-
licemen and as many detectives. we're
rushed to the scene in the auto pa
troll by order of Police Chief beavers.
The young girl, who had tainted
from the shock she had received by
the rough treatment of the two
brutes, was revived sufficiently by
this time to give a description OF
her assailants. Armed with the de-
scriptions, the squad of policemen
began to scour the woods for the
negroes.
A posse of citizens of the north
side community, who had heard wild
reports of the attack, had rushed to
the place and formed themselves
into squads for the purpose Of patrol
ing the woods. Up to a late hour
the search was still going on. and
the posse of citizens had swelled
to larger numbers.

TWO MEN SHOT.
Bank Bandit Gets S2.4O0 in Robbery
at Altoona, Pa.

Altoona. Pa. Marcn 2H.-Alter
shooting the cashier and a deposltor,
= taxicab robber yesterday escaped
with s2.40O he gathered from the
counters of the Union Bank here. AS
he left the building. the bandit fired
rapidlv into a crowd of Pennsylvania
Railroad shopmen standing nearby,
calmly mounted the drivers seat of a
stolen taxicab and drove off. The
robbery occurred shortly after noon,
when the streets were filled with
people.
For sheer daring, the hold-up
stands without a parallel in this VI
cinity. Scores witnessed the theft.
The man worked without an accom-
plice, driving the taXicab himself, and
an hour later the machine was found
abandoned in an alley half mile
east of where the robbery occurred
1t was just 1890 o'clock when the
taxicab pulled up in front of the
bank. The man tinkered about the
machine for a moment, waiting until
the last patron left. Behind the
rillwork was A. P. Rupert, the cash
ier; Chester C. Bupket, the teller,
and Mrs. Oscar Shaver, the book
keeper. Other employees were at
lunch.
Burkett stepped to the wicket to
wait on the man, and found himself
looking into the muzzle of an auto
matte pistol The robber commanded
the frightened teller to hand over his
cash. Burket dropped and rolled
under the heavy marble counter,
where he remained until the robber
had gone.
Mr.. Rupert was walking toward
another room, when the bandit fired
at him, the first shot striking the
cashier in the abdomen. He fell, al
though he was later able to crawl
into the washroom.
Woman Clerk Flees.
Mrs. Shaver. the bookkeeper, fed
to the hallway leading to the cellar,
where she was safe.
With the coast clear, the bandit
vaulted over the partition and began
examining banknotes into his pock-
cts. He brought a small satchel
with him, but discarded it.
He took all the money in sight.
although he did not enter the vault
which was standing open. The vault
contained more than S250,000, in
cluding the funds of the Altoona
school district. While he was at work
a crowd of men gathered outside the
bank building, but none dared to
interfere.
After filing his pockets, the rob-
Der calmly walked into the corridor
and snapped the lock behind him. AS
he reached the door he met William
Blackburn and Immediately began
firing. Blackburn dropped and the
bandit drew another automatic pls-
tol and opened fire on the shopmen
in the street.
The crowd scattered, the gunman
calmly cranked his machine and
drove down Eighth avenue.
He travelled as fast as the car
would take him and later he skirted
about the city and finally abandoned
the taXicab.
Rupert and Blackburn were both
removed to the Altoona Hospital.
The cashiers injuries are serious.
