A Great Naval Programme to Be Recommended to Congress. FOR BEST CRUISERS AFLOAT. Among lha Vessels to ns Asked for Will lie Three Swift llstlleshlps snil Three Armored Cruisers ef the Longest Steaming Kadla*. WAsuntorog, Oct. 17.--The boaid of experts, which includes the chiefs of nil the bureau) of the navy depart ment, has agreed upon a general pro gram and made recommendations to the secretary of the navy, which will doubtless be approved aud forwarded to Congress soon after the reassem bling of that body. The program em braces the construction of fifteen sea going fighting vessels, of which three are to lie first class battleships of greater dimensions and tonnage than any now in the navy. The battleshipa are each to have a displacement of 13,• 000 tons, a minimum speed of 181) knots when loaded to the deepest draught, and an average speed of nine teen knots under ordinary cruising conditions. In determining the speed, due con sideration was given to the new condi tions tiiat have arisen in the Pacific ocean, and the board decided that speed should be sacrificed to secure steaming radius and coal capacity. All the veasels, however, will be as fast as any war veasels now being construct ed abroad. The battle ships will be capable of sailing 8,000 knots, or the distance between Kan Francisco and the Philippine islands. Their main batteries will be composed of four 12 inch rllles in turrets fore aud aft, sim ilar to those of the Iowa. The second ary batteries will mount from fourteen to sixteen rapid fire 0-inch guns. The auxiliary batteries will ha composed of a number of guns of assorted cali bers, both quick fire and semi-auto mane. In addition to tin* three battle ships the program provides three Hrat-class cruisers, each of 13,000 tons displace ment and a spued of tweuty-two knots they will bo covered with heavy ar mor from stem to stern, and armed with four 4-lnch rifles in turrets, und ten or twelve fl-inch rapid Are guns in broadside. In their armament it is proposed to make these vessels superior to any afloat of the cruiser class. There will also be nine cruisers, of which three will be the second class, protected and armored, and six pro tected cruisers of th« third class. All the vessels will tie copper sheathed. One of the important lessons of the wer with Spain is the importance of sheathing our navel vessels to protect them against marine growth, the accumulation of which in tropical water* is very rapid, re ducing tiie progress of the vessel fully 25 per cent, and frequently 50 per cent. It is unnecessary to say that all the vessels will be supplied with the most advanced machinery and engines. The board has uuder eonsideration plans for the eonstruetion of troop ships, at least four of which will be needed in connection with tlio West Indies und Oriental territorial acquisi tions. It is in contemplation to at once construct three ships, each of which will have capacity for carrying 1,200 troops, with all their supplies and equipage. Whips will also have to be especially designed und constructed for carrying artillery and cavalry w ith their mounts. Aside from the Philip pine islands it is definitely settled that the United States must at once pre pare for taking care of its colonies in tiie West Indies, the Hawaiian and the Ladrone islands. Transports will be required to carry men and supplies, and these must be immediately con structed. 700 A WEEK DIE IN HAVANA. Colonel Waring Finds lb» City Fostering In Osrbaga—An fcpldeiule Feared. Havana, Oct. 17.—',’olonel Warlng’s first inspection of Havana lias filled him with surprise. The conditions are much worse than he had expected. Kvcrything is favorable for an out break of fever, (inihage remains in the street* sometimes for days, though the Mpunish authorities ure making every effort to keep tiie fever ill eheck. The streets. In many places, are filled with festering matter. Hast night hundreds of bushels of rotten potatoes were dumped at tiie foot of Obispo street. Or. Wilson told 1'oioncl Waring that the city was never before in a eou ditiou more favorable for s yellow fever epidemic. In normal times the deaths in Havana number about Son a week. They are now averaging fully 100 » day. Tiie deaths mostly result from pernicious fever, which in many ways resembles yellow fever. Tbs I*rlnr« of W alaa SI III I Inip* T^isiion, OH.

WHY LOWE CONFESSED. HU Pals I>M*rt >■! Him After II • ArraatMl, ProiMatlnf Attnrner Kansas Citt, Mo., <Act. 17 — County Prosecuting Attorney Frank M. Ix.we place* implicit confidence in the confess! .'<n of W. \V. I /we, the self confessed train robber, at the same timo he declares there is very little chance to convict tiny of the accused men. He bases his claim on the theory that train robbery is such a common thing in Jackson county that every intelligent and law-abiding citir.cn disqualifies himself for jury duty in such cases by keeping thoroughly posted on all the details of every rob bery. “The consequence is," said Mr. Lowe, “that wln-n tlio jury is selected to try these cases every man on it will either have gotten on by delibnrate perjury in order to befriend the ac-' cused or will be so ignorant lie cannot be made to understand the evidence. “There have been many theories ad vanced as to why Low4 made his con fession," continued tint prosecutor, "lots of people asserting that he had been bribed to make it. I will tell you just why he made it. lie had been en gaged in a train robbery with a crowd of men whom lie supposed were his friend*, lie was arrested and held for ten day* and no move was made by them to come to ills assistance. Sev eral times lie was on the verge of confessing, but each time held back in hopes they would do something for him. Finally he became satisfied that they hod deserted It I in and were going to let him be made the scapegoat and railroaded to the penitentiary while they enjoyed the money lie had helped to steal. Then lie concluded to try and save himself and lie made Ills con fession. Just note the difference be tween his esse and that of Jesse .lames. As far as anyone knows l<owo had always been an honest man and bis father before hint had Iteen honest, yet no one rushed to his assistance when he was arrested and no one tried to Imvw hint released on a writ of ha beas corpus. "The court house crowd has raised 85,000 to defend Jesse James and swear lie shall never go to the penitentiary. They have hired a lot of detective* and have set them to work looking into the facts connected with Lowiy, con fession, and claim that when the case comes to trial the city and railroad detectives will not dare to' press it. It will he pressed fast enough, but as to securing a conviction that Is an other thing. There are plenty of dep uty marshals and deputy clerks to go into court and swear to alibis for John Kennedy, Kennedy and Janies are warm friends and wheu the former was out of jail he spent most of his time hanging around James' cigar stand in the court house." ANARCHISTS FOILED, Official* llcllair* That tbs Kaiser Wu la Hangar. Ai.KXAXDRIA. Egypt. Oct, 17—The Alexandria police liuve arrested nine Italian anarchists, and have thereby frustrated a plot against Emperor William, now on his way to the Holy Land, to lie present at the consecra tion of the Church of the Savior at Jerusalem. Tho first to 1m, arrested is a cafe keeper, a well known anarchist, in whose house the police discovered two wire-bound bomba of great strength, full of bullets. The arrest wos made in consequence of a notification from the Italluu con sul general at Cairo that two anarch ists had left Cairo for Port Maid. The police investigation showed that the arrested cafe keeper hod bribed the steward of a steamer sailing from Alexandria to Port bald ami Syria to take on board a box of txunhs. Ap parently, the auaruhists originally in tended to use the bombs at the Palalas Abidin, at Cairo, while Emperor Will iam and the khedive were there. When tho kaiser decided not to visit Egypt, the unurchisls changed their plans and decided to attack him in Palestine. The liveliest satisfaction is felt over tho smart captures, and the Herman consulate hus expressed his warmest thanks. The two Cairo anarchists who left for Port .Said huve not yet been ar rested.

ViimK.v, III., Oct 17. — Attorney William I'at ton of tlie Chicago-Vlrden Coal company In authority for tlie statement that no further attempt will be made to bring the Alabama negroes whose coming resulted in the loss of so many lives. There is under consideration, according to Attorney Patton, an attempt to fix the responsi bility for tlie tragedy upon the gov ernor of Illinois. The lawyer declares that it Is tlie intention of the coal company to pres* the matter and it wil be for tlie grand Jury of Macoupin county to say whether (lovernor Tan ner shall answer in court. .1. Franklin Hyster, manager of the company store, who was nearly killed by the mob, Wednesday, is recovering. The militia commander, Colonel Wung, lias placed a guard of soldiers at the house to which Kystcr woe taken. The authorities at Hprlngfleld are considering the advisability of sending another (lulling gun here to be placed inside tlie stockade. Colonel Young, however, does not consider additional artillery neoessary. Coroner Hart to-day resumed the in quest into the deatli of tlie victims of tlie fight at the Chicago-Virden Coal company's plant inside tlio stockade. Three witnesses were examined, all ex-guards of tlie company. They ad mitted that they were present during the fight, but denied baring taken part iu the battle. One witness swore that he, together witli about twenty five others, were sworn in by Sheriff l)avenport as deputies. In the cross cxuuilnutiou Attorney Mooney, repre senting the Miners' union, brought out the fact that the witness had never re ceived a written commission or hud uever filed a bond. Lawyer Mooney said: “Have you a copy of the statutes?" “No, not with me,” jeplied Mr. Pat toil. •*I am sorry,” said .Mr. Mooney, “as I would like to show you my author ity.” One of the jurors then spoke up and asked: “Mr. Mooney, do I understand you to oar that it is necessary to file a bond and hare a written commission to create a legal deputy sheriff?" The miners' attorney assured him that such was the fact. “Then,” said the Juror. “I can say there hare been lots of papers served in Macoupin county that are illegal, as I have served as deputy sheriff num berless times for years and have never given a bond or received a written commission." The mtuc officials have yet given no intimation regarding the number of witnesses they expect to present, but from the leisurely manner the Inquest was conducted to-day it may bu pro longed a week. It is the evident in tention to bring out as much testi mony on Ixith sides as jxi-.sible. Law yer Mooney is apparently trying to get testimony tending to implicate the inmates of the stockade and the traiu guards In the battle while the company attorney is drawing out detailed indi vidual statements of personal experi ences of the guards. Pana, 111., Oct. 15.—Qtlet prevails here to-day, the excitement over the reported coining of the Virdcn negroes having abated to a considerable extent.

Tanner Defend* Illniaelf. SrmsfiriKi.D, 111., Oct. 17.—Governor Tanner last night gave out an inter view regarding the situation at Virden and his attitude on the importation of miners into the stute. He said: “My position has been from the be ginning. and I am now more positive in that position, emphatically against the Importation of labor Into Illi nois, not from the Southern states alone, hut from all other states, because such a pernicious system, as I have said before, necessarily brings to our state and dumps upon society an undeidrahlc class of citizens, and I do not propose, if 1 can help it, that the state of Illinois shall bt* used as a dumping ground for the criminal and idle classes of other countries or other states. “The Chicago-Virden company has been an intentional law breaker, has sent an agent to Alabama and by false pretenses induced negroes to come here, loading them on the trains like cattle, locking the doors of the cars, feeding them like stock, and procuring the services of armed guards from a detective agency, and invading the state in an illegal manner,” He says if he hud been apprised of the coming of the train he should have had it met at the state Hue with the national guard and disarmed and made priaouers of every man bearing arms.
