NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. hulls and
deck high buIkheads will make somf
OF the thirty-five new ships the
United States shipping board Is build
ing. as we'll nigh unsinkable as a yes
sci can be.
The plan OF construction OF these
cargo carriers and transports is not
new in naval arChE'ure. II IS along
we'll recognized lines. Expense ha>
teen the only objections heretofore
coupled with the less. Of large spaces
within the hulls.
The new ships will be practically
cellular. And as a Zeppelin, due to its
cellular construction, does not neCes-
sarily fall because one OF its compart-
ments is opened, neither would one
Of this new fleet sink because one OF
its watertight bulkheads was stabbed
by torpedo.
1t is said that the credit for plan.
ming the ships belongs TO Admiral
Capps. now the general manager OF
the shipping board. He refused today
to comment upon the matter.
Sixteen and one-half knots has been
decided upon as the speed OF the un-
sinkable ships. Experts say that il is
almost certain that one torpedo could
rot sink such a ship, and indeed, it is
uncertain whether two could send
her to the bottom.
II is said that work upon these YES
sells will begin at once, and that they
will be constructed as rapidly as pos
sible.

covered.
According to Horace @. Eastburn, at

Will be made.
In commenting on the situation, Mr..
Eastburn said today:
ION Monday, we shall present TO the
court over 400 appeals to strike the
name Of the voter from the lists. Cir
oumstances have prevented US from
having q larger list prepared, for we
have reason to believe that this number
does not measure the frauds that have
been committed
I'VE have found several groups Of
Negroes who have apparently been inn
ported from the South for the sole pur-
pose Of voting at this election. We
shall proceed TO make arrests as rapidly
as the exigencies OF the case warrant.
All Of the evidence we have obtained IN
