June 3. Twelve pre- 'dreadnought battleships will bo relieved of active duty with the fleet, placed out of commission and probably eventually broken up for junk or used as targets by more modern vessels under plans now being worked out by tho.Xavy Depart ment. Tho ships are of the "mixed battery" type and arc not considered to be of any value against latest type fighting craft. Four of the battleships, the historic squadron comprising the Oregon, In diana, Iowa nnd Massachusetts, have already been relegated to the scrap heap. The remaining eight, apparently doomed to the same fate, arc the Kcarsargc, Kentucky, Illinois, Alabama, Wiscon sin, Maine, Missouri and Ohio. The twelve vessels, built between 1S03 and 1001, represent a total expen diture for hulls nnd machinery alone of more than .f00.000,000. When plnccd out of commission they will release for other duty approximately 10,000 en listed men and nearly 400 officers. The ships long ago outlived their usefulness as combatant units in a fighting fleet, although when they were built they were among the most formid able warships afloat. All of them- were used during the war with Germany ns training ships or coast defense units. Slow of speed, with small coal capac ity; inferior ordnance equipment nnd insufficient protection against present day projectiles, the ships, if kept in commission, would be more of a liability than an nsset, in the opinion of naval experts. They are armed with old type twelve and thlrtccn-inch guns in tho mnin battrries and eight-inch in the uprATi(Tnrtf r1nflns.

The historic old Oregon has been offered to the state ot Uregon to oe useu ax the state sees fit for memorial pur poses and probably will be accepted. The Iowa, Indiana nnd Massachusetts probably will be broken up for the metal thnf !o in thpm. thpsp thrpe shins con taining an immense amount of valuable copper and brnss. The remaining eight will probably be used as targets for ex periments in, the effects of modern gun r.fA na wna tim nlH Tpxfia. It hits been suggested that a number of the vessels could be well utilized as coast defense units by sinking them in shoal water at the entrance to the more Important hnrbors, making them veritable forts. It Is posslblo that four of them will be used for this purpose. With these twelve ships stricken from the navy register the fleet will com prise forty dreadnoughts and prcdrcad noughts, twenty-nine of them of the most modern type and eleven of slightly older class, but still formidable unlis, all of them of the "nll-blg-guV type of construction. Included In the dread nought class arc the ships from the Michigan and South Carolina .class through to the new Colorado and Massa chusetts classes, not yet completed. Eight of the ships are armed with 3--Inch guns, eleven with 14-lnch, and tho remaining ten arc being equipped with 10-lnch turret guns, tho most powerful naval batteries afloat. The older vessels to bo retained arc the Virginia, Xebrnska, Georgia, New Jersey, Ithodo Island, Connecticut, Louisiana, Vermont, Kansas, Minne sota and New Hampshire. All or them have composite batteries of 12-inch and 8-inch guns. They range in tonnage from the Virginia class of 10,000, to the Xew Hampshire type of nearly 18, 000 tons. In addition to this powerful fleet of forty battleships there are now author ized and under suspended construction six cruisers planned on a scale never before attempted by any navy. They will be 850 feet In length, estimated dis placement 35,000 tons nnd will mount eight 10-inch guns. The contract speed of these cruisers is thirty-five knots. Secretary Daniels has recommended that construction be resumed immediately on these ships. Jacob H. Hoober Lancaster, Pa., June 3. Jacob H.

PLANSTOFLY CROSS. 2 CONTINENT IN Army Airman, In Martin Bomber, Intends to Make Only Ono Stop MINE0LA TO SAN FRANCISCO Washington, June 3. An attempt to make a transcontinental flight from Xcw York city to San Francisco in lees than two days with only one stop en route will be made by the army air service within the next few days. A Martin bombing plane will be used. The start will be from Mineola, L. I. Xorth Platte, Xeb 1500 miles from Xew York, has been selected as thv-mldway point. Tho sehedulo allows only sixteen hours and thirty-nine min utes for the first lap, nnd the departure from Xorth Platte is set for 3:30 o'clock on the following morning. The plane should land nt San Francisco about 5:58 p. m. Officials here believe the trip should be made easily within the thirty-seven hours and twenty-eight minutes allowed in the schedule.. Captain Bpy X. Francis, n flier of long experience both in military and commercial planes, will be in charge of the flight. He will be accompanied by Lieutenant Edmund A. Clunc and two or three mechanics. The nlano to be used is capable of carrying one ton of freight or from ten to twelve passen gers. St. Johns, X. F., June 3. Itcports received here, from London that the British dirigible It-34 might leave Eng land within a fortnight for America yes terday caused the aviators encamped near this city to speed up the work of assembling their airplanes for transat lantic flights in competitions for the S50.000 prize offered by the London Daily Mall. Continued rain is hampering prepara tions at the Vlckers-Vimy nnd Mar tinsyde camps here nnd at the Handley Page airdrome at Harbor Grace. Trial flichts are unlikely this week. It developed that both' the Vimy bomber and the Martinsyde plane, ai well as the Alliance and BoultoaTaul machines, due to arrive here soon, may all take oft from the field which Cap tain Jack' Alcock, pilot of the Vimy outfit, began this morning to prepare for use. FILIPINOS PRESS APPEALS Delegation Again Urge Self-Govern ment Plea Before 'Congressmen Washington, June 3.
