New York, Nov. l4.—With United
States naval oificers on board direct-
ing and controlling its movements, the
submarine torpedo boat Holland was
put to an official test in the lower bay
yesterday before the naval board of
inspectors and survey from Washing-
ton, with a. View to the purchase of the
boat by the government.
1‘ For the first time the boat was direc-
ted by gbvernment officers, and the in—
spection was the first made by all the
members of the board, ameng whom
was Captain .Robley Evans commander
of the Iowa. .
Fighting Bob examined the strange
manoeuvres of the wonderful little ves-
sel with a critical eye, and seemed
pleased when the inspection was ended.
for the test was the most successful
that has yet been made with the Hol-
land.
She first discharged an eleven-foot
torpedo in the harbor, then put to sea
and went through a remarkable pro—
gramme. diving, plunging under and
out of the water like a. porpoise, run-
ning at full speed under the surface.
and reversing swiftly while submerged.
Lieutenant W. .J. Sears, inspector of
ordnance in the navy, who arranged
the torpedo test, said the official trial
of the boat had been very successful.
Two large parties accompanied the
Holland. The members of the board
of inspection and survey, with other
naval officers, and the owners of the
Holland, were in one tug; a second was
reserved for the newspaper men and
artists.
CompOsing the naval board were
Captain Frederick Rogers, the chair-
man: Commander William H. Emory,
Lieutenant Nathan Sargent, recorder,
and Captain Evans.
The Holland lay at the Atlantic
Yacht Club moorings at the foot of
Fifty-ninth streeet, South Brooklyn,
where the inspecting party with Mr.
Holland, the owner of the boat, landed.
Several changes had been made in
the torpedo boat since its former trials.
It lay in the water with but little more,
» than the conning tower showing above
the surface. It still bore a. steel up-
right, or mast. fore and aft, one flying
the Union Jack and the other the Stars
and Stripes.
Its crew was composed of H. C. D.
Nlndermann, who was with Lieutenant
De Long on his Arctic exploration in
the Jeannette; Matthew Addison, F. C.
Cable and Henry Myers.
When the signal was given to cast
off, at noon, Lieutenant Sargent. who
inspected the boat last spring, and
Chief Engineer Lowe descended
through the conning tower to_ superin-
tend the manoeuvres, and work the
boat themselves.
In response to signals from the tug,
the Holland then turned seaward and
ran at cruising position—that is, bare-
ly on the surface—out through the Nar-
rows and to a point two miles south
of the Orchard Shoal light.
The sea was almost as, calm as a
There were no'craft cruis-
ing about to make diving dangerous.
In response to signals from the tug.
the Holland first ran for ten minutes
to the northwest, completely submerg-
ed, only her two little flags showing
above the water.
Lieutenant Sargent had been stand-
ing in the conning tower steering the
torpedo boat.
At the order to submerge, he quickly
pulled down the cover of the tower and
the boat sank out of sight. After run-
ning swiftly to the northwest, she
came to the surface. and turning about '
ran submerged in the opposite direc-
tion.
Her air and water compartments, by
which she sinks or rises, worked with—
out a hitch and she sank like lead.
This began a series of dives. She ran
swiftly forward and a. moment later
her nose dipped into the waves, her
stern tilted into the air. and she dived
like a duck, her flags disappearing be-
neath the surface.
For three or four minutes nothing
could be seen of her. Three hundred
yards away to the right she suddenly
rose out of the water and glided over
the surface. There were murmurs of
admiration and approval among the
members of the board.
Next the Holland-made a series of
four dives in quick succession, rising
above and sinking beneath the waves
like a porpoise, and followed this feat
with a dive in which she completely re-
versed her position.
Priest Attacked With Dynamite.
Scranton,Nov. 14.—Because the Rev.
John Orlonoskie, pastor of the Duryea
Polish Catholic Church, refused to ac-
'r:¢de to the demands of a gang of des-
peradoes and pay them 3100, a dastard-
ly attempt was made on his life Satur-
day night. As it was the entire front
of his home was wrecked with dyna-
mite. T‘he stoop was shattered, win-
dows broken and the church, about
sixty feet distant, also damaged.
The priest received an anonymous
letter written in Polish about one
month ago which when translated
read as follows:
"You must pay us $100 in money or
will murder you and blow up
your house. The money you can
place in a. bottle and leave IiIt buried
in the ground right under the corner-
stone of the church. Do not expect a
second demand.”
Dr. Orl-oroskie paid no attention to
and this fewrful Work
followed.

Now the announcement is officially
made that this corps is to be dis-

whose services will, in consequence, be
substituted for those of the cats.
One can easily imagine the military
