1 you are making a mistake in regard to this race track legislation.' He said
 I disagree with you I said, The thing will cause the republican party to lose 25,000 votes Mir. Hughes re- piled, We'll gain two votes for every one we lose I asked, .where?' and MT. Hughes replied. From the demo- cratic party
 T asked him whether he believed he would get the votes of the men who had voted against him and he replied, My conscience would not let me finish my term without seeing that law in the statute books replied: Oh, I thought we were discussing votes. If it is your conscience, it is no affair of mine.'''
 Mir. Barnes denied that he had ever told Mr. Dickinson or anyone else he had told Governor Hughes, eff it is a question of your conscience and votes, then We have no common ground be- tween us.''
 The witness in reply to further questions testified regarding the luncheon at Oyster Bay. in 1908, at which the renomination of Governor Hughes was discussed. He said that present at the luncheon were Herbert Parsons, Francis Hendricks, Colonel Roosevelt and himself. MT. Barnes said he declared he was opposed to Governor Hughes and that Messrs. Parsons and Hendricks also were in opposition. Colonel Roosevelt, said MT. Barnes, then asserted that he did not want to make ''his friends cut their throats a second time Campaign of 1908.
 Did you place any one in nomina- tion at the convention subsequent to that luncheon?,' asked Mir. Wins.
 II did not" replied the witness. 'T seconded the nomination of MT. Wadsw orth Later however, I did make motion to make Mr. Hughes nomination unanimous.'
 .'In that campaign" Mir. Twins went on, "did you visit every polling place in your district?'
 MT Bowers objected. The court sustained the objection, and almost simultaneously Mir. Barnes, smiling broadly, said, T did not"
 The question and it's answer seemed to amuse not only MT. Barnes, but practically every person in the court room. The lawyers then entered into a conference with Justice Andrews. It was still in progress when an ad- journment was taken.

New Kind of Mine
Invented By English
Correspondence of the Associated

Correspondence of the Associated
Press.)
EDINBURGH. March 26.-The Brit
ish navy has developed a new type OF
mine. which. according to The Scots
man, marks Y new era in this branch
OF warfare. The German and French
floating mines have not presented
such a very difficult problem, because
it has been comparatively easy to
sweep them up, owing to their suspen-
sion tackles. The new British mine
has no floats and no tackle. 1t can
be elected from a torpedo tube or in.
continently thrown overheard. If de.
sired. it can be set to rest on the sea
floor until the minute chosen by those
placing it. when it will come up. not
to the surface. but to the proper
depth at which to meet the rushing
bows of ship.
AS soon as the mine. floating Free
reaches certain depth, there is set
UP series OF movements which put
into operation tiny propeller and
this promptly kicks the mine up to
the proper level and then stops until
again called upon. 1t is not a mine
easily caught in sweeping operations,
as It progresses under water in a
series of slow leaps" which never
reveal 1t, as It cannot leap beyond its
fixed limit of bHoyancy.

removed from his post about month
ago, supposedly as the result OF a dis
agreement over naval tactics with
Grand Admiral Won TirpitZ, the heao
Of the German navy. The new chief
commander OF the great feet of the
Kaiser has spent his entire mature
life in the navy. At the age of TWEEN
ty-one he was commissioned lieuten-
ant, and at twenty-four, he was pro-
NOTED to Senior Lieutenant and placed
in command of the corvette Corola.
Twenty years ago he reached the rank
of commander, and in 1898 he be-
came a captain. He reached the rank
OF commodore in the new imperial
navy decade ago, and since then he
has been reckoned among the fore
most of German naval officers. In
1909 he was made vice admiral. His
only active service prior to the out
break of the present war. was as com
mander OF the cruiser Hansa, which
bombarded the Taku forts in China in
1900. It is said that Admiral Won
Pohl is in entire sympathy with Grand
Admiral Won Tirpit's wearing down"
policy, adopted at the beginning OF
the war. while Won Pohl's predecessor
Won Ingenohl desired to put into ef-
feet different plan, in which more
dependence would be placed upon the
cruisers and less on submarines.
