UNCLE SAM'S DESIGN MUST BE KNOWN OflW-lals Dislike Law Which Compels Plan of New Twenl y-Thonsand Ton' Fighter to Be v Published. WASHINGTON, July 9-The construc tion officers of the navy will not be aided In preparing plana for the monster 20.000 ton battleship by the plans of the English ship nreadnaugltt.- So far the British ad miralty has been successful In preventing any part of the dalgna or plan of the large fighting n.achlne of their navy from falling Into the hands of other nations. Such information aa the United States navy possesses of th; Dreadnaught has been of no service In designing the new ahlp provided In the last naval appropria tion act. The fact that the plans of the Dreadnaught are so closely guarded is given as a reason why the' plans of the big ship for t ho fnlted. Slates should not be made public;, aa will be the case when the t,erm of the act are) compiled with, as it expressly says that the planj must be submitted- -to' congress before contract lor the new shift are made. Delay on Training- Ship. Among the things that are held In abey ance In the Navy department because there, Is apparently no pressing necessity for set tling1 the question is - Uve . constructing of u. na.vuj training ship on the great, lakes. More than a year ago provision was made for building such a ahlp, the Intention being to have It Used for the naval mllltla of states bordering on the lakes. Before anything could be done the question arose ns to whether the building of such a ship would nrtf Interfere wlfM the agreement with Great Britain 'which provides that war vessels shall not be constructed on the great lakea by either England or the I'nlted Statea. While a training vessel Is technically a war vessel, It could not be considered In the general acceptance of the term, because It would not be at all effective in time of war. Thla is one of the several questions pending between the t'nlted States and Great Britain In rela tion to Canada which remain unsettled. to the office of Dr. O. W. Colt, the railroad physician, who dressed the leg, und lie was then taken to his home. Dr. Colt said that the boy might lose the leg, but he will not be able to trll definitely for some time.

As soon as was possible ha was released and carried which books and documents were so sub sequently considered by the said engineers, Daniel V". Mead and G. II.

Mead and G. 11.

Mead and G. H. Benr.enbeig. In arriving at their appraised valuation of the water works, acted illegally and wrongfully In arriving at their estimate of the valuation. In the particular that they baaed their valuation upon the cost of reduplication, and refused to conlder any and ull other matters whatsoever bearing upon the real value of the said properties, - and which said report does not In fact represent the real value of said properties, but represents a fictitious valuation arrived at by Im proper methods, and Whereas. The city of Omaha, by an or dinance passed February 24, 1903, and ap proved March 2, 1W3, declared that It was then necessary and expedient for the city of Omaha to purchase the water works of the Omaha Water company, and did. by said ordinance then elect and cletermlne to make such purchase, and which said or dinance, waa then parsed, with, the jurpoBe and Intent of buying the water works within the rornorate limits of the city of Omaha, and the property necessary and appurtenant thereto in the city of Flor ence, aa the same then existed, and upon the valuation of said properties as the same then and there existed, and ' . Whereaa, The said engineers, Daniel W'. Mead and O. H.

Mead and G. H. Benienberg, set down In their said report what purported to De ineir estimate of the valuations of the aaid properties aa they existed July 7. 190H. and that In the meantime, to-wlt: from Marcn z, iwu, to July 7, l!V, the prices of Iron pipe, water mains, hvdrants. valves and machinery hurt irreatlv enhanced, and that by the adopting of the said last named date as iv,a nn. flxlnor the valuation, the city of Omaha has been greatly wronged and dam aged, and the said valuation as nxea in the eaia report so eigneu y mr am immri W.

Benaeriberg, In ttielr said report, in estimating the values of the properties In South Omaha, liat Omaha and Dundee, and the mains, plpea and hydrants used for the purpose of supply in the city of Florence and its inhab itants with water, did not give to the same their full and proper valuation, and refused to take Into account the rents, profits and revenues arising to the Omaha Water company from the distribution of water to South Omaha, Ka-st Omaha, Dun dee and Florence, but to the contrary ap praised that part of the property within South Omaha,. Kast Omaha, Dundee and Florence aa so much pipe and so many hydrants in the ground, at their present estimated value aa Iron water malna and hydrants, as If the same were entirely dis connected and separated from the use of supplying water to the Inhabitants of the suld reapectlve suburban cities, towns and villages, and bv reason whereof the valua tion of the water works fixed upon that part of the property within the corporate limits of the city of Omaha. Including the Intake at Florence, were proportionately swelled bevond their real value: and the valuation of the properties In South Omaha, Kaat Omaha, Dundee and Florence was proportionately diminished, and that the said apportionment of valuation between the i ltv of Omaha and the aaid cities of South Omaha.

The long expected report had arrived and was In the possession of the board. It contributes nothing new to the Information possessed by the public, merely reciting the history of the appraisement proceedings and giving the findings as to valuation.

Company Demands Action. President Theodore C. Woodbury and Richard 8. Hall, attorney tor- the Omaha Water company, through a bill filed Mon day In the I'nlted States circuit court, ex act of the city of Omaha a performance of Its contract to buy the Omaha Water com pany's plant at the valuation fixed by the appraisers, 6.2t3,e.49. In addition to this petition the otllcers of the Water company served on Mayor Dahlman and Milton T. Barlow, president of the water board, a tender of a deed to the plant. The petition admits the ap praisement to be fair and Juat, though In private conversation President Woodbury said he considered the appraisement less than the actual value, which he considered to be 17.000,000. This is a copy of the deed tendered by the water cpmpany: To the Honorable Mayor, City of Omaha: The city of Omaha havrhg elected to purchase the system of water works operated by the Omaha Water com pany, exercising for that purpose the right Inuring to the city through the contract between said city and the grant ors of aaid water company, and as au thorised and provided by section 14 of ordinance of said city.

N. t, l-ly P.-Se retary of War Taft tonight,' before a meeting of North Carolina republicans ori the eve of their state convention delivered a speech that was generally regarded as the opening gun of the congressional campaign of 19fi. The speech dealt with current political questions. It opened with advice to the rank and file of the party In North Caro l'na and the south particularly, nnd re ferred to the achievements of the parly In the session of congress Jirst closed The opera house was packed to the overflowing by a throng eager to hear the secretary of war and hundreds of persons were turned away because of the limited slr.c of the hall. Secretary Taft'a Sneer h. Secretary Taft In opening said that when ho was Invited to address this meeting the committee advlaed him "that the poli tical situation was such that if a proper effort was made at the coming election It would b possible to carrj the state for the republican party." The secretary said: I believe that nothing that could happen In the polities In this country would work greater advantage to tho country at large, and to the south in particular, than the breaking up of what lias been properly known as the "solid south." 1 say this In no partlsm spirit for I am not one of those who think that this ;result would necessarily Increase the prohabllty of the continuance In power of the republican party. The solidity of the south has, in a measure, furnished its oW-n antidote In restraining many voters In the north who might have left the republican party but for what they regard as the injustice and danger of southern political conditions. The south has been . kept solid by the specter of negro domination. and by stirring up racial prejudices and arousing unfounded alarm over an impossible return of reconstruction days., said the secretary. The question which should address Itself to the great business interests of the south, the secretary stated, is how much longer "the apectre of things past" Is to hold them to a political allegiance that does them no good In national politics and de prives their communities of "the Inestima ble benefit of the pfeiirwft In local policies of two parties, each , of which. If It docs wrong, has a rent chance' of . being pun ished for Its misconduct." Mr. Taft contended that If the-southern people "had ltept up with the times; had they at the bsllot.box expreased tfielr senti ments on the' living Issues of the dny, In stead of allowing themselves to be fright ened by a spectre and a shadow of the past, their political Importance as com munities and the significance of their views upon. nesKurcs Mid men would have been vastly enhanced." .' . "The republican arty . of North Caro lina," he declared,.- "would -' be much stronger as a voting' p'arty If all the fed eral offices were tilled . 'by democrats. As long as the republican party In the southern statea shall repreaent little save a factional chase for federal ofllces, business men and men of substance In the community have no desire to enter and In the result of whirl' thy have, no Inter est! we may . expei";.Jth present political conditions of ' the. pniilli'ao continue." tf K. Issues of Conilnsj Campalgrn. ; TuYTilngf "to "the 1ssucs'lrivolve(!rlA'k"tha comli.g congressional ,,ampalgn. the ., sec retary pointed out that in November, 1904, the republican ' parny was continued In power. Theodore RooRcvelt. he l.sald, ha.1 for more than three years and ft half dis charged :the duties ,of president. "During that period' Mr. Roosevelt," he added, "had again and again, by word and liy act, man ifested to the people his determination to pursue the middle. Just and-' Impartial course by which the 'rich and' pOof should enjoy the equal protection and suffer the equal and Just enforcement of the laws. He recognised this as the platform of the republican party. He Incurred the hostil ity of important financial interests by his action In directing the prosecution to a successful Issue of the so-called Northern Securities suit, which prevented a merger for the purpose of- suppresalng competi tion of two great lines of railway In violation of the so-called anti-trust law." The secretary then said the republican platform and Mr. Roosevelt pledged' the further enforcement of the anti-trust law and the Interstate commerce law to prevent discrimination against the shipping- public and to prevent oppressive combination and monopoly. Continuing, he said that only a year and four months have elapsed since Mr. Roose velt took the oath of office after his elec tion in 1904, "and yet In that short time of his term of office the republican party In congress of the I'nlted States. Inspired by Mr. Roosevelt's recommendations, has adopted a railroad rate bill, which greatly Increased the power of the Interstate Commerce commission, and which, taken together with previous legislation before his election, will certainly' have much to do In the abolition of violations of unjust discriminations and abuses." Promises and Performance. The secretary said the democratic leaders are now Indignant ' that the republican pirty, In carrying out the promises of its platform, in putting into practice the psln ciples which they "with superb compla cency, claim are really covered by a demo cratic patent." He declared that the demo cratic leaders have been for years dec-luring against corporations, but have Insti tuted no legislative steps In all this time to restrain abuses. He said: I ask you to compare democratic prom ises with republican performances. Inci dentally, ponder Ihow much would have been done if Mr. Parker had been elected and acted on his theory thit the common law supplied all that was necessary for the suppression of trusts and the abolition of rebates. It may be noted also that while Mr. Bryan has been most emphatic and eloquent In his description and enunciation of trusts and abuses of corporate organ isation and Wealth, his suggested reme dies for their prompt suppression have buen very vague, unless indeed his proposal that the government bnv or condemn all Interstate railroads, with their Immense mileage, and maintain and operate thrm is to be regarded us an immediate, reai'v. practical and feasible remedy. In view of this It 1 not a matter for any surprise that the great combinations and organiza tions that have in leased I heir prohts and Kiwrr by evj anil oppressive methods should fear and dislike Mr. Roosevelt and his acts In the present much more than they do Mr, Bryan snd the indefinite dan gers with which he threatens thm In the future.

Mr. Taft urged that the record of the present congress, enumerating- Its Impor tant enactments, "confirm In the most con vincing; way the claim always made for the republican party, that It Is an efficient party for the accomplishment of good, that It does things and that It carries out Its promises." He expressed the hope . that the Philippine tariff bill, now pending In the senate, will be passed at the next ser sion. Mr. Taft, after explaining the In crease In appropriations, declared that In spite of the Increase there would be a surplus of $t0,0u0,0fl0 In the treasury after all the expenditures have been made. . . Mr. Taft argued against any reaaon for returning a democratic majority In the next house, saying, In conclusion, that no party has ever taken more decisive steps to re strain the abuses of Irresponsible corporate Wealth' and ' power than the republican party, arid said that, while the admlnj'stra' tlon , Is, straining every nerve to secure compliance with the laws. It Is prophesied that the champion of this reform, the man who, not by words, but by deeds, as presi dent of the I'nlted States, has shown hi adherence to the principles of equal pro tection and laws to all, and. his courage In resisting all claims of special immunity, whether for organized labor or capital. Is to be rebuked and thwarted by the return to . congress of a majority of the . opposi tion.' Not while the American.. people ad mire courage, consistency, high ideals and practical common sense; not while they believe In energy, honesty and American ism; not while they take, a man for what he Is and what he does, rather than for what he says, will this prophesy be Jus titled." . . The secretary was warmly applauded throughout his speech. Mr. Taft left Greensboro tonight for the north enroute to Put-in-Bay, Ohio, where he delivers an address July 11 'before the Ohio Bar association.

Interior Minister Stolypln has sent to Ambassador Meyer and the representa tives of other countries the government's official report of the Blalystok rioting, for transmission to their respective govern ments. While this unprecedented action on the part of the Russian government docs not involve a recognition of the right of foreign countries to make representa tions regarding the internal affairs of the empire, it Is a distinct recognition of the power of public opinion abroad and Indi cates the solicitude of foreign government to know the Russian side of the case. The report Is practically Identical with that submitted by Minister Stolypin to Parlia ment. First Mutiny Amass Cavalry. TAMBOV, July . A mutiny broke out July 7 In the Kasarva regiment of cavalry and during the consequent disorder an Infantry officer and a soldier of the NeJIna dragoons, who attacked the mutineers, were killed. The mutineers have barri caded themselves In their barracks. 8T. PETHRSBI RG, July lO.-The news of the mutiny at Tambov, which apparently Is the most serious of such affairs since the Bebastopol mutiny, is confined to the bare details of a censored agency dispatch, showing that the mutineers, when attacked by loyal troops, offered -armed resistance lxfore retreating to their barracks, where they are now barricaded. I'p to 1:30 o'clock this morning the newspapers have received no further particulars. In previous mu tinies this year the disaffected troops have submitted when confronted by loyal de tachments. The outbreak la a quick com mentary on General Trepoffs declaration In the interview with him published July 7 in which he affirmed that the cavalry could be more depended upon than the Infantry because their officers were in cloaer touch with their men. - -. f Kaptror Visits Resort.
