Yale to xvln ; but what n tltnosho bad of ill
Vet txvo years the Now Haven teams have
mot and defeated all comers xvllhout nlloxv-
Ing a point lo bo scored against them. Last
year Yale had In many xvnya a star cloven ,
but this year tbore xvas nothing but careful
training and stulHul coaching , nnd great In
deed must bo the team that can exceed the
record made by the men xvho defeated
Princeton , Princeton did much to lose
the gaino before she began IU She
won the toss , but cHoao the wet goal
and lot Vale tnko the nail. No worse move
for Princeton nnd no bolter ono for Yale
could possibly DO mado. It xvould sooin as
though Princeton should not have lorgotton
what-happonod to harvard a year ago at
Spriugflold , xvhon Yale started oft with the
ball and McClung plunged through tha
players tor a touch down before they fully
realized that the game had bogun. When

The largo steamers that are botng built
xvlll probably murlt thu limit to profitable
advance In Rlzo and sp od xrith the pros-
out model of Atlantic passenger steamers.
Greater speed necessitates creator length ,
breadth , depth nnd draught. The limit ot
draught suitable for harbors will soon bo
reached. .Moreover , tbo increase ot ton
nage , pro poll ing poxvcr nnd cost is nt n
much higher ratio ttmu tnat ot the pas
senger capacity. Tea years ago $750-
000 wii3 nbqut the cost ot thu largo
ships ; then the cost , rapidly advanced
with the rivalry in speed , till noxv they
cost fJOL > 0 , ( > 00 , nnd the latest Cunnrdors will
cost half n million moro , xvhllo these of the
Whlto Stnr line xvlll bo nt least fll.OOO.ODO.
The passenger area of a 703-foot steamer Is
not much greater than that t > f ono of 580
feet , nnd thu speed only about two knots
faster. An engraving prlutcd In the Scion-
ttllo American Illustrates n noxv design for
an Atlantic passenger steamer in xvhlch
greatly increased length Is secured without
urnportlonnt tncroaso of draght and beam.
The nrnposillon is lo construct a system
of mud hulls of special model connected in
thrco trains ot tnrco hulls each , the center
train being the principal part of the craft
nnd extending 2'13 foot forxx nrd iitul i.'UO foot
nbaf t the ether txvo trains , the whole form
ing an outline similar to that of mi ordinary
ship. Thu total length xvould be 1,44(1 (
foot ; breadth over thrco trains , 1-12 feet ;
to outsldo floats , ISO feet ; raldshln draught
of center tram , IS feet ; midship beam at
xvntor line , 45 fool ; midship beam at main
dcclr , 00 feet ; mlUatght draught ot outer
trains , 12 foot ; midship beam at water line ,
27 foot ; midship bourn at main deck , 35 feet ;
displacement of center train , in.OOO tons ; ol
outer trulus each , 5,350 tons ; total displace
inent about 20,000 tons. The propolllnu
power would consist ot eovon engines , three

each ; txvo < In stern sections , 0,001) each n
total of 50,000 tiorso poxvcr. driving seven
pairs of paildlo wheels of 52 to 50 feet in
diameter , 0 und 8 foot wldo , having iidlp ol
S foot.
DotnlU f tlio Construction ,
Thta steamer xvould carry no cargo , ant
owing to the system of construction , xvoult' '
reulro ] no ballast , so that the onllro toir
nago capacity xvould bo available for en
glnes and fuel. She would bo intended foi
only llrst nnd second class passengers nut
have accommodation for 2,000. The section !
xvould bo held In position by a system ol
flexible connectors , consisting of massive
stool tran'sx'crscgirders ten feet deep ,
having roclter ends bearing ugalnst up-
Ights connecting the upper and lowoi
abcUH. The ends of the rocltors xvould boai
ngainsl a series of heavy half-elliptic springs ,
having a flexible alrengtb of llity und
soventv-flve tons each. Tnososnrlngs would
extend along the upner nnd lower docks , mil
would stiffen und chock tbo motion of the
rockers. A strong wire cable xvould ut
fastened in the end of the rooker ,
then pass over a roller- secured In tht
upper deck , thence clown under a slmllui
roller in tbo lower dock and counect xvitl
the other end of the rocker , A second cable
xvould bo fastened to the Inner siao of the
snrlng , pass around the roller and connec
xvlth the roclicr so ns te- act reciprocally
The beams connecting xvith the circle rn
would bo braced transversely and rui
dlngonallv 'throughouttho - nootions. Tbi
longitudinal connectors of tha section :
would bo a smglo massive coupler In conte :
of each section , placed on a level xvltl
the center of the lateral connector
und twelx'o foot above the xvatcr lino. Tht
longitudinal frames of the sections xvouli
converge at tbe point of connection. Thi
coupler and the frames diverging from I
xvould of course nave to bo of immunsi
strength and capable of sustaining a straii
of 1,000 or 2,000 toi-s. The space betxvBet
the ends of tbo connecting hulls xvoulc
gradually widen from the connccto :
down to the keel plate , xvhoro It wouli
bo about liva or six feet on n love
keel , Which xvould admit of n depression o
the stem of the center train of 120 foot
This space would bo occupied by a metal nni
rubber xvater-tlgbt chamber that xvould ox
oalid and compress xvith the vertical motmi
of thu cads ot the hulls and prevent thi
xvater from tilling in.
Thorn xvnulcl ba hinged to the bottom o
the forxvard section sliding plates that xvouli
extend under the bottom of the mljolnln
section , thus forming an even und contiuu
ous bottom from stem to stern of each train
Tlilrty-1'Ui , MUCH nn Hour.
It Is estimated that 5.000 tous of stec
would bo used la the construction of th
connectors nnd In the streugthonlng of th
parts of Iho sections where the groatcs
strain would occur. The hulls would b
entirely of steel. It Is thought that
steamer of this design could bo built stifl :
clontly strong to withstand u much groatc
strain than she xvould ever encounter In th
waves of tbo Atlantic. The design xvoul
admit of the different sections couformin
to the angle elevation of any sl/o c
xvavcs she xvould meet without stnur
Inir. The steel iloats on the outsicl
might retard tbo speed a knot or txvo , bu
they uro not n necessary part of the plan nn
may bo detached. They furnish berths fo
four or live h nnd rod of tun croxxnfSo bold t
steady the outer trains nnd xvould bo used :
for fenders. It Is prouosed to use pacldl
xvttccls for the propelling medium. Of couw
three , four or live scroxva could bo used n
the stern , but would not bo so suitable fo
the hlfih speed us the paildlos , xvhichvorli
Ing In protected xvator and having a dlumt
tor of lUty-'ix fnot , xvlth miglnos to drlv
them at tulrly-lilvo revolutions , should muk
about thirty-live knots.
To many , 110 doubt , It may seem Imoosslbl
to control the mottou of such heavy structures
turos In a soaxvny. As a matter of fact thor
is only ono motion in n soaxvay that is nc
preventable , nnd that Is the vertical motion
which It is not nccnsburv to control. Th
system of connection nlloxx'd play room fo
that to a Hiuch greater extent than ta nccc1
surv , The tendency , however , in a stcamt
of this design xvould bo to lo'sson It. It Is th
lateral motion tlfat could bo easily dtmlnUuc
or prevented ,
The proposed btcauier xvould have accon
modatlon for J.OOJ paabongois , dyine
greater number pt cubic feet for each passoi
gor than the present steamers , nnu , as I
xvould , carry no freight , xvould remain
shorter tlmo in nort. So that , at the spoe
that would bo attained , she xvould avcrag
about uno trip a xvook , or forty during
season ot nine months. Carrying 103
000 passengers nt present rate
for corresponding class of nccomuii
datioir , 80,000 llrst class xvould pay 1,100
000 ; 80,000 second class , $3OIOOJ ! ! ) ; lota
Jfl.tSOO.OOO ; xvhlch ought to pay a very bam
some dividend after pivlng operating o >
pnnses.
It will bo seen from the nbovo figures thi
a steamer as described could earn Immaiii
profits nt one-half the present rules. .
$3,000,000 hotel , xvlth accommodation ft

Without hesitating u mlnnlo Iho lad reached
Into his pocltol and hatidect It over. The
