THE FASTEST VESSEL AFLOAT, Nearly Twenty Knots an Hour, Pruiapgrrmia, Dec. 20,—The dynamite crulser Vesuvius left Philadelphia Thurs day to make a seoond test of her speed. She | returned yesterday afternoon. The following is the official report made by .a government expert, and was approved by the Messrs, Cramp and all the supervisors of | the trip: “The Vesuvius returned to Cramp's ship- yard at 1 p m, Dec, 28 1888 from her | second trial trip. She made a run just before dark Thursday night under very unfavora VESUVIUSR bile circumstances, the wind blowing a gale and an unusually heavy sea running. Under these disadvantages she made a mean speed of 10.50 knots in two runs over a two knot course. The disadvantage of the heavy sea was much aggravated by the shallowness of the water on the measured course. It was also conceded on all hands that the water on the measured course is much too shallow to give the vessel a fair chance within at least a half to three-quarters of a knot per hour. “Yesterday she started to make another run, and had gone over three-fourths of the course in the first run at the rate of at least £1 knots, when one of the air pumps connecting levers broke, which necessitated the shutting off of that engine, and the re- mainder of the run was made with the other engine alone. Under that disadvantage her speed over the whole course was 10.47 knots per hour. Thereupon the trial ended.” The Messrs Cramp announce that they feel in duty bound to give another test of speed of the Vesuvius, but thoy will ask that the course be chosen farther down the bay, near the Breakwater, so that a clear way and an ample depth of water may be had, with every chance of the vessel to show her very highest speed. They have no doubt whatever that the Vesuvius will in every way prove superior to her contract specifica tions, and they are particularly desirous of showing that she is the fastest vessel afloat. ANOTHER ENGLISH, HORROR. The Body of an S5-Year-Old Boy Found Frightfully Mutilated, Loxpox, Dec -A atrocity to those committed by the White chapel fiend occurred at Bradford, York shire. The victim was Johnnie Gill, an 8-yearold boy. When the lad failed to re turn home on Thursday evening his parents became alarmed, and reported his disappear ance to the police. The next day his muti lated body was found in an outhouse a mile from the place where he was last seen alive The body had been dissmboweled in the manner made shockingly familiar by the Whitechapel fland. The heart had been torn out entirely and hung upon the throat, and both boots bad been taken off the lad's feet and thrust into the gaping body. Both arms and legs had been roughly chopped off and tied to the body by means of the sus penders worn by the child The face and body generally were hacked as if in wanton brutality.
