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

Havana, Oct. 17.—',’olonel Warlng’s
first inspection of Havana lias filled

Kvcrything is favorable for an out

The streets. In many places, are filled

Or. Wilson told 1'oioncl Waring that
the city was never before in a eou
ditiou more favorable for s yellow

deaths in Havana number about Son a

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.

that they were especially unfit for hos

however, that he had made no formal

admitted that the Red Cross furnished

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.
