SHE SURPRISES THE TITANIC.
Launching of Britannia Marks DeyeIs
opment in CONSTITUTIONAL Safety.

Belfast, Ireland, Feb. 26.-The
launching to-day Of the Britannia. the
500, ,000-tOn White Star liner, marked
an important development in con-
structional safety, so far as engineer
ing ingenuity can insure it.
The Britannia, intended for the
transatlantic service, had just been
laid down when the Titanic disaster
occurred. Immediately the plans Of
the new liner were almost comp ately
remodeled.
She is a triple screw steamer. 900
feet in length, and there has been in
troduced into her construction every
device possible to prevent a recur-
renee of the disaster which overlook
the Titanic. A complete inner skin
extends to considerable height
above the load line, the most vulner-
able portion of the vessel, and the
height and number of bulkheads has
been increased.
1t is claimed the Britannia will be
able to float with six compartments
flooded. The inner part consists of
heavy plating, which extends for
more than half the length Of the YES
sci, from the water-tight bulkhead
in front Of the forward boiler room
to the after-end Of the turbine engine
room. 1t is connected to the outer
shell by longitudinal tube angles,
with especially strong connections at
bulkheads and watcr-tight divisions.
In addition an extra water-tight bulk
head has been introduced and the eX.
listing bulkheads have been carried un
to the bridge deck.

Navy Now Using Electricity.
A Washington dispatch says:

A washington dispatch says:
The new electrically-d driven collier
Jupiter has scored signal success on
her trial trip just completed off the
California coast. Though rated as a
l4-knOt boat, she maintained an av-
erage speed Of 15.1 for As hours, her
electrical machinery developing
6,940 horsepower
Electric propulsion is being tried
by the navy for the first time on the
Jupiter and the department officials
are greatly pleased with the result.
The collier was in competition with
the colliers Neptune, fitted with a re-
duction gear Of her turbines, design
ed to effect economy, and the Cyclops,
fitted with reciprocating engines. All
three vessels were OF the same size
and similar lines, and the excelling
performance of the Jupiter may have
an important bearing on future naval
design

FRANKS COUNSEL WILL Appeal
Extraordinary Motion for New Trial
Will BE Filed,
(Atlanta Constitution, Feb. 26.)

| (Atlanta Constitution, Feb. 26D
| In their desperate fight for the life
of Leo Frank, Luther ROsser and
Rube Arnold viii next rely upon a
motion extraordinary to be made be-
| fore the Superior Court for a new
| trial on grounds of newly discovered
evidence.
| This move has been in the air for
some time, but il was made definitely
| known Wednesday, when the Su-
| premc Court, after "a hours delib-
GRAFTON, refused the plea Of the de-
| Tense for a rchearing before that tri-
bunal.
The principal grounds to be set
forth in the new trial request will be
the disclosure Of Dr. Roy Harris that
he was not positive, one way or the
other, that the hair found upon the
lathe was Mary Phagan's, and that
Albert Meningitis reputation Of his
testimony at the original trial will be
presented.
New Evidence RumOrcd.
The affidavit Of Mrs. Nina Formby,
charging police "frame-up" into
which she was Coerced to give testi-
mony against Frank, will also be
used in the new trial motion. These
three grounds are already known. 1t
is generally rumored, however, that
there will be much other evidence of
this nature.
Attorneys Arnold and RosSer went
into conference Wednesday over the
prospective motion extraordinary.
Neither, however, would state def
nitely when the motion would be filed
with Judge Ben Hill, now presiding
over the Superior Court
The Supreme Court, in denying
Frank a rehGaring, handed down this
ruling:
"The motion for a new trial con-
tanned 1903 grounds. To have dis
cusSCd each OF them separately would
have unduly prolonged an opinion al
ready necessarily Of considerable
length. So. likewise. to deal with
each Of the grounds Of the apDlica-
ton Tor rchearing in detail would
serve no useful purpose. Suffice it
to say that the matter set out in the
motion for rohearing was not over
looked IN making the decision, but
was carefully considered and passed
upon, though all Of them were not
discussed at length. While the diff
terence Of opinion among the mem
DerS OF the court, as to certain QupS-
tons, which appears from the opin-
ion, still exists, the court is unani-
nous in over-ruling the application
for a rehearing. Motion over-ruled."
