Meal Jnpector Jsrall rank was sus.
pended by a unanImous vote of the Board of
health yesterday forenon pending the 1nvetI
gatlon of the charges of embezzlement which
were preferred In police court by the as-
slstant county attorney Tue8day. A maJority -
I Jorlty of the 11embers were at first vigorously
opposed to this action , but when It came to
a vote they ' were unwitting to go on record
as voting for the retention of the Inspector
In servIce In the face of the serious charges
which were pending against him.
The mayor called the board together In
specIal session al 10 o'c1ock , and somewhat
contrary to expectation all members were
present. Mayor Demls stated the object of
the meeting and declared that the matter
I was too serious to he considered from a
political ! standpoInt. The most convincing
evidence hud been obtaluell that I ' rant and
I'ounlmaster ! Spoon had been systematically
defrauding the city and the board could not
refuse to suspend Frank until th charges
wore either controverted or sustained Aside \
from the evidence of the taxidermist who had
skinned the 'logs three \ men had watched the
pound during the last hat of July and the
whole of August. No one of these men had
known that there was anyone else on the
case and hey had worked entirely mdc-
L pendently of each other. Their reports had
tallied \ exactly and showed that of the 385 : : ;
dogs reported hy rank as drowned In
August only 129 were actually drownel
Gordon and Thomas declaimed against convicting .
vlctln a man before he was tried. ' They
InsIsted that there was no evidence before
the hoard on which they could base their
action anJ thought It would ! he time enough
for the board to act after Frank was con-
vlcted.
The mayor inquired whether the fact that
rank was at that time out on ball on a
charge of embezzlement from the city was I
not sufficient to make It the duty of the
. hoard to suspend him until the Investigation
was concludell. That hal , always been the
custom when city officials were accused of
offenses , and this should b" no , exception to
the rule.
Duncan offered a motion providing for the
suspension of the Inspector. lie salt that
miller the exhtlng circumstances Frank should
: himself have asked to be suspended until the
matter was cleared up. If he was guilty
of the offense charged , he was also guilty of
perjury as he had made affidavIt to the
Board of Health and to the council that his
monthly relJOrts of the number of dogs
drowned ! were correct.
On roll call all members voted for the
motion except Gordon , and after the vote
was announced he asked and was given permission -
mission to change his vote from no to aye.
None of the other Inspectors have been
desIgnated to perform the duties of the meal
Inspector during ! his supenslon. ! Commissioner -
sioner Saville says that he will simply notify
the council that Frank has been I suspended
and allow that body to take such action as
It may think ! prorer.

The regular meeting of the Beard ef Health
yesterday afternoon was brief but important
from the standpoint of those who have been
accustum to 1raw salaries on Its pay roll. I
On motion of CommIssioner , Saville , whIch I
was Unanimously passed by the board the I ,
whole force of Inspectors , vas suspended Indefinitely -
definitely on account of the failure of the
fund This Includes Dr. Towne registrar of
vital stat l-tlcs , Milk Inspector Druner , the
four sanitary inspectors 00(1 Clerk Darker.
Dr. Saville Is the only salaried official remainIng -
mainIng , although Mr. Barker will remain In
the onlce as the representative of the garb-
age contractor.
Preliminary to his motion Dr. Savl1le
stated that there was a deficit In the health
fund on October 1 of $399. In view of the
exIsting situation It was Impossible to con-
tinue to do buricss : and the only recourse
was to suspend tile whole force. The other
members inclined to the same view and there
was no opposition to the plan.
Dr. SavIlle stated after the meeting that If t !
the council had Itept Its agreement made at
the beginning of the year they would have
been able to pull through with a slight bal-
alice In the treasury. But he was tired of
being crltlclse(1 ( for work that wau not done
when the fault was with the council that
refused to furnish the necessary funds to
carryon the busIness of the department.
lie intended to submit a communication to
the council detailing the situation and the
action that had been taken by the board aM

Into the waters of the Delaware at Cramp's
ship yard today Miss Ida May Schleren ,
daughter of the mayor of the city from which
the mammoth , 'esel takes Its name , broke a
bottle of AmerIcan champagne on the crule-
er's bow , and said : " 1 chrIsten thee , Brooklyn .
lyn "
I wu a fete day al KensIngton , as all
such occasions are , and when the gates of
the big yard were thrown open to the public
shortly before not an immense crowd surged
In to witness the baptism of the latest addl-
lin to the nation's fee I. On the christening
stand was a distinguished party , the conspicuous .
splcuous figures "f which were Assistant See-
rotary of the Navy McAdoo and Mayor
Schleren of Drooklyn. The others In the group
were Postmaster General Wilson and Miss
Wilson : Attorney General Harmon , w1h Mrs.

elI ; Chief Clerk 1\lchou \ and Mrs. Michou
This party left Washington at 7:50 : this morn-
lug In a specIal train on the Pennsylvania
railroad 1uch disappointment was felt over
the unavoWable absence of Secretary of the
Navy Herbert. There was : ! s n delegation
of Brooltynles , In recognition of the honor
accorded their city The shIp building corn-
pany and the municipal government were represented -
resented by pro.nlnent parties
Grouped l about the wharves and dotting the
river for miles around were craft of every
description , from local excursion hoots to
fcrelgn steamers .
SLIPPED INTO TiE WATER.
I was a half hour past noon when the last
shores were knocked from the ways , and the
colossal vessel began her brIef journey.
Swinging aloft thc wIne bottle . which was
clothed with the stars and strIpes , Miss
Schleren crashed I against the steel bow and
uttered the christenIng words. Then as the
marine monster gIlded gracefully down the
ways , the enthusiasm found vent. The
crowds I the yard roared and screamed ; the
party on the christening stand waved hats
and cheered and the boats on the rIver let
loose theIr ear-silltting whistles. Meanwhile '
the Brooklyn had taken her maiden dip In the '
middle of the stream , where her anchers were
dropped , and she como to a halt. Another
of the monster flag defenders had been sue-
cessfully launched.
After the ceremonies luncheon was served
In the mould ! heft , and a number of felicitous
speeches were made , among the speakers be-
Ing Mayor Schleren of Droolllyn : AssIstant
Secretary McAdoo , Mayor Warwick , and the
Messrs. Cramp.
The Brooklyn Is regarded by naval experts
as a marvel In the art of marine architecture.

The shlp's battery will consist of eIght
eIght-Inch breech loading rifles of thlrty- ve
calibre , twelve five-Inch breech loading rifles
of the rapid fire type , twelve slx.pounder
rapId-tIre guns , four one-pounder rapid-fire
guns , and four machine guns . The elght-
Inch guns will be mounted In four barbette
turrets , placed one forward and one art on
the center line , and one on either sIde of the
vessel amidships. The guns In the turret on
tile center line arc to have a traIn of 310 de-
gi'ees. Those In the side turrets can fire
from rIght ahead to right astern , or train
through an arc of 180 degrees each. The
center of the side turrets will be ditant from
the center line of the vessel about twenty-
three feet. The armor forming the barbette ,
which wl protect the carriages of the plat-
form and turel machinery , will be eIght
Inches In thickness for a portion equivalent
to the traIn of guns of the respective turrets.
The remaining portIons may be reduced to
tour Inches In thlcknes ! Under the turrets
will be placed three-Inch armor supporting
tubes whIch will .protect the ammunition
hoIsts.
The armor of the turrets wi be five and
one-hat ! Inches .thlckness. . The guns will ,
be so mounted that they. can be supplied with
ammunition and loaded at any position at
the train , I will have no side armor. Pro-
tecton to the hull will be given by a steel
protective deck worked from stem to

beams. The bottom edges of tills deck aml -
<
ships are to bo five feet pix Inches . below
the lwenly-four.foot water line , the' .top or
the deck rising to the water hue at the

crews will be afforded by an extra platIng at I
the opening and sblehls. Wih this battery
I Is vossible to concentrate six eight-Inch
guns ahead astern or abeam , as opposed
to four ahead , astern or abeam In the
calt of the New York. Moreover the axis
of the gun In the forward turret Is more
than eight feet hlghr than that of the corresponding -
responding guns Of the New York , enabling
them to be fought In almost any weather ,
and gIving them a great advantage In plung-
log fire In . the event of ghtng at close
range.
Ths'Drooklrn will have five torpedo tubes ,
one In the bow and two on each side Six
torpedoes and a suitable allowance of gun
cotton for mines and other naval purposes

Not like the great and good George Washington .
Ington , who lo\'c the truth and foul ! him-
self morally and physically unable to per-
vent it , was Mr. Augustus Billings of 18 Wall
street and Yonkers ; hut rather like Napoleon
Bonaparte , whom recently discovered evl-
denco has proved to be the most facie and
monumenlal liar the world has ever seen. A
von ) Napoleon of prevarIcators , who deceives
'lls wife habitually , anti more than once even
succeeds ! In allaying the suspicions of his
mother-In-law , alhough that ken scented
old lady evidently has a mother.ln.law's
doubts about him al the time ; who would
gel up In the Ilghl to lie , and from whose
tongue flows on the spur of tie " moment a
current of falsehood which sweeps away all
the defenses of hIs mere honet neighbors ;
Mr. Augustus Billings nevertheless carries
with him , when ho makes his fInal leIsurely
exit In tile wake of his hurrying female relatives -
tves , tile sympnthy and admIratIon , I not
the respect of lls audience. This Is all
wrong of course. One should feel for the
wIfe of the modern Ananias who , far from
being a Saphhh , seems to be all a wife
can be , and as truthful as she Is Innocenl.
She loves her hushanl , apparently ; trusts
him , at any rate to an extent which ten-
dens- deception an easy task so far as she
Is concerned. But there Is little sympathy
for her I all goes to the Intrepid Billings ,
" 'IlO emerges hy dint of calm and untroubled
lying from entanglements of hIs own creating -
ing the intricacy of , which would appall a
man or meaner endowmenls. lie strolls
amid the rapid and all but furious action of
those whom he has embroiled easy , grace
ful and unvexe hy care punlng his cigar ,
fill and unvexed by care ; puffing "Jls cigar ,
reading his newspaper and looking In hIs
cool white raIment like an Iceberg In tropic
seas : and his conscience only annoys him
once , when he relapses Into a momentary
tenderness toward his wife . But one doubts
whether that lithe touch Is added for ot'ler
purpose than to round out the stupendous
structure of decit which h& lies fashioned.
Another of his victims the
Interrupts tete-n-
tote , and ho falls to lying again with all the
facility of habit . .
Mr. Gillette's performance Is an admirable
one. I Is sustained upon the level which this
clever artIst assumes at the outset , and Is
finely restrained within , the limits whIch besets
sets for himself. The role of Billings was
evidentY constructed.hy him as author with
an eye to his own peculiar abilities as actor.
Certainly no one else could do It nearly so
well.

Mr. Ralph Delmor as the Cuban planter
faIrly divides honors with the star. The
coarse brutal bully Is strikingly Indicated by

The piece Is beautifully -uton. the first set
showing tile cabIn of a coastwise steamer and
the others the InterIor of the house of the
only genuine Johnson In Cuba with a glimpse
of a tropical landscape and his In the far

bushy furny ; the lar o' audience last nIght

fInal curtain , whIch fell upon an ending quite
