The Dorlon House at Gregory‘s Point
one of the best known summer resorts
in these parts. was totally destroyed by
life yesterdnyafternoon, causing a loss
of about $10000. fully insured. The
origin of the blaze is not known, but it
is thought by John E.‘ OS‘ullivan. the
manager of the hostelry, that It started
from the furnace in the cellar. That
was where the fire first broke out. and
.in three minutes after it was discovered
by Mrs. McKenna. who was in the par-
lor, in the southwest corner of the
building, directly over the place where
the fire originated. the entire structure
1wns filled with smoke and it was im—
possible for anyone to remnlu inside,
Mrs. McKenna ran outside and
‘shouted “fire" at the top of her voice.
Daniel Connolly. an employee about
the placeheard the cries, and immedi-
ately notified Mr. O Sullivan. who was
in the rear yard The latter hurried
to the building, and seeing the condi-
tion of affairs did not think it was

ONCE AGAIN A FALSE ALARM.
Nov-walk Firemen Get Another Run for
v » . Exercise.
The Nor-walk Fire Department was
called out this morning at 11.30. The
alarm apparently was turned in from
Box .5871“. the corner of Fair and Calla
urine streets. which has recently been
installed. investigation revealed the
fact that the inside mechanism was
taken from Box 34 at the corner of
Harbor avenue and Chapel street
which twice before has rung falsely.
and placed in the box at Fair and
Catbmarlne streets. It Is supposed
that boys threw stones at the poles on
which the box is fastened and started
the mechanism. As the firemen had
had had a hard job at Dorlon’s Point
only a few hours before the false
alarm was not relished very well.

pouring report filed today by Chairman . w- ._ - -
Foss. of the House naval committee, is
one of unusual interest The report
does not take as optimistic a view‘of
our naval prowess as is generally held
and Mr. Foss points out that compara-
tively few of our ships have any real
lighting value.
with a statement of the enormous nav-
al armament and progress of other
countries, particularly Germany. It is
shown by the report that the total
number of vessels of our navy built
and building. is 138. and the total cost
will be $235 .083, 209 The report adds
“While we have built and are build-
ing all told 188 ships. yet comparative.
ly few of them have any real fighting
value. Our naval prowess lies almost
entirely in our eighteen battleships,
eight armored cruisers and twenty-one
protected cruisers. The rest of our
ships would cut but little figure in ac-
tual war. Ships of the battle line prac-
tically alone determine the
strength of a nation ”
Referring to the foreign naval pro~
gram the report says: "Of all the
countries, Germany has been building
during the last few years faster than
any of the others. Her shipbuilding
program started in 1398 and will be
completed In 1908: possibly in 1907. in«
stead of 1916 as first planned. This
program will give her in all Irty-
eight battleships, fourteen large cruis-
ers. thirty~elght smaller cruisers and
ninety-six torpedo boats."
Concerning new ships for our navy
the report says: "The committee rec-
ommend that for the purpose of further
increasing the naval establishment of
the United States the president have ‘
constructed two first-class battleships
carrying the heaviest armor and most
powerful ordnance for vessels of their
class upon a trial displacement“ about
16.000 tons. and to have the highest
practicable speed and‘greatest radius of
action. and to cost exclusive of armor
and armament. not exceeding 34,2”. 000
each:. two ill-stein” armored Cruisers
of about 14. 500 tons trial displacement
1 to cost exclusive of armor and arms-
men! not exceeding $4,055 000 such, and
two sailboats of about 1.009 tons trial
displacement. 1
