GUS LOWIT KICKS OUT "LADDER MAN Caught 1b the act of plundering the resldenoe, itl Clay street, this morning, just before day dawned, a burglar waa kicked out by Gustavus A. Lowlt The encounter took place In the hallway of the home, and It waa down the front steps th prowler waa toad by the spunky man of the house. Out through the gate he flew, and away Into the darkness, making his escape. ' The police were apprised of the affair, and officers were sent to Investigate. Ho clue waa left by the burglar upon which the detectives might work The criminal la believed to be the one who has been perpetrating ; the recent bur glaries, and who is known aa the "lad der man." Upon entering the house, the burglar waa ao unfortunate aa to awaken the household by a noise, and before he waa aware of it, ha waa confronted by ITALIAN TRIES TO SECURE DYNAMITE An Italian lad called at the Hammond powder store. First and Stark streets, aarly thla morning and wanted to pur chase a stick of dynamite. Fearing that ha waa the representative of a secret society or that aome person with bad motives had sent him for the ex plosive, the proprietor called up police headquarters and caused his arrest. To Captain Orltstnacher1 the boy gave the name of Charlea Head, which waa undoubtedly fictitious, as be waa plain ly of Italian nativity. The story he told waa very Improbable. Aa there waa no evidence against him he waa releaaed after being booked on suspicion. The boy told Captain Qrltamacher NEW BATTLESHIP IS OFF THE WAYS $4,000,000 MTJXBXAJrA.

In the presence of 20,000 persons the battle ship Louisiana waa launched today by the Newport News Shipbuilding com pany. In addition to the official party from New Orleans tru-re were present delegations of naval officers from Wash ington. Philadelphia and New York and visitors from numerous other points. The ship went down the ways st 10:07 o'clock without a hitch. The naming party were escorted to the platform by C. B. m ml. president of the shipbuilding company. The sponsor. Miss Juanlta Lalland of New Orleans, waa attended by several young ladles aa maids of honor. Oovernoi W. W. Heard and other official represen tatives of the state of Louisiana were present As soon as the ceremonies were ovet President Orcutt conducted the guests, numbering some too persons, to the steamboat Newport Newa, aboard which the party went to Old Point Comfort, where they were entertained at a ban quet In the dining room of the Hotel Cbimberlln. Description of Louisiana. The Louisiana and her sister phlp. the Connecticut which Is to be launched at the New York navy yard a few weeks hence, are counted upon to be the most powerful fighting machines of the new American navy. They will usher in one Important Innovation, Inasmuch aa their batteries will .contain 7-Inch guns In place of the COach rapld-firers which hare prevailed since the vessels of the Ken marge-Kentucky type) were planned It la doubtful whether any ship afloat will rr.-itch the Loulalana in armament. In addition to four 12 -Inch guns. In fore and aft turrets, she will have eight 8 inch rifles. In the main battery these will be supplemented by 12 7-Inch rifles, each throwing a projectile weighing 1(5 pounds. The II inch guns carry a shell weigh Ing (10 pounds at velocity of ,1,(00 feet a second a speed one-fourth greet, er than that attained by the lt-lnch guns on the ships of the Indiana class The 7 -lnci sheila have a Bursting charge of it pounds of black powder. The ex- "It shed saw be replaced by an Mr. Lowlt. The latter took the lighted lamp from his sleeping apartment and went out into the hallway to Investigate. He aet it down on a table and looked around. There In the door stood Mr. Burglar. Ha was directly under the rack that held aome clothing, and whan he saw ha waa confronted by a man who meant to take drastic action, he ahowed hla daring by Jerking the rack from the wall and throwing it into the street, the evident purpose being to take aome of the clothea with him in the hope of finding money. Mr. Lowlt then got buay and tried to catch the burglar, but the latter darted through the front door. Taking the next beat method of "getting even." the man of the house began kicking; the fleeing prowler in no gentle manner. Thua did he put the bold burglar to flight, ad ding another brilliant chapter to Port land's history of bravery. that hla mother Uvea on Portland Heights, and that hla father la In Italy. He explained hla desire to purchase the dynamite by the statement that a couple ia to be married tonight on the Heights, and that he purposed serenading them by firing off the explosive and blowing up a huge stump near their home. Hla atory waa not believed. At the powder atore the boy feigned Ignorance of any knowledge of explo sives, but betrayed himself by making statements -that ahowed he was familiar to a large extent with dynamite. His general demeanor while in the atore amused the suspicions of the clerks, and brought about bis arrest by Po liceman Teevin. armor-piercing projectile, which attatna a velocity of 2,000 feet a second driven by a charge of 101 pounda of amokeleaa powder. Hitherto the secondary batteries of the battleships have been composed mostly of- (-pounder and (-pounder rapid-fire guns. On the Louisiana these will be superseded by 10 (-Inch rapid flre rifles, throwing a 14-pound explosive shell. There also will be 12 (-pounder semi-automatic guns, eight 1-pounder automatic guns and two (-Inch field guns and eight machine guns for the fighting topa Armor Za Expensive. The armor for the Loulalana will cost (1.600.000. While 'the greatest of her steel protection will be concentrated at the water line amidships, she also will be protected the full length of her hull, and above the main belt of armor plate there will be three thinner belts of plates the lower casemate, the upper casemateand the superstructure armor Electricity will be employed to as large an extent on board the Louisiana ns on any ship In the navy. There will be electric ammunition hoists and con veyers, and It la more than probable that electrical devices for both aiming and discharging the guns will be In stalled There also will be an automati cally controlled motor for the purpose of keeping the big guns on a horizontal line while firing In a heavy sea. The Louisiana has a length of 460 feet on the load water line, an extreme breadth of 7( feet 10 inches and a total displacement of 16,000 tons. She will be fitted with twin-screw vertical ex pansion engines of an Indicated horse power of K.600 and capable of develop ing a speed of 18 knots or' better. Carries 800 Men. The mean draught of the veaael will be 24 feet alx Inches and the coal supply 00"tons. Twenty-six feet nlns Inches Is the maximum draught, and If a shot should t ierce the hull beneath the water line, a layer of cornplth. placed between the outer and Inner shells, will swell and effectually stop the leak The ahlp's complement will Include 42 officers and 7(1 men. The total cost of the Louisiana will be In the neighborhood of (4.000.000. The progress of her construction Is being watched intently by naval officers, con structors and shipbuilders generally, owing to the competition between the prlvste company that Is building her and the New York navy yard which Is con structing the Connecticut The con struction of these two battleships, which are practically Identical and the keela of which were laid at the same time, la In tended to show whether the government can successfully compete with the pri vate snipnuuners in constructing' our warships. The Newport Newa company has won the race so far in regards to time end naval experts seem to be of the opinion that the private concern will also succeed in turning out the hsttle hip at a lower cost than the govern ment navy yard i CHIEF HUNT SAYS HE IS REALLY "IT" DBomin Lionnu nrro u LAUSATIOH ADD1EII. Chief Hunt haa often told hla patrol men that the newspapers of the city have tried to "put the rollers" under him, but this morning he had aomethlng real new, and much more funny, to tell. He chose the men of the aecond relief to oonflde in this time. After addreaalng the men on disci pline and order for 10 minutes, the chief launched forth into pralae'of bia police force, and told the men that Chief of Police Wlttman of San Francisco told Captain Moore on hla recent visit to the Bay City that Chief Hunt had organised the beat police foroe in the United States. "I worked up from the ranks," aaid Chief Hunt, and he surveyed the police men who atood before him, aa hla bosom swelled with pride. 'Tea, from the rank I worked tip." the chief went on. aa his handa awept majestically to and fro. "I have been in thla business i years; built the city jail hern, auperlntended the magnificent atate buildings In Providence, which are among the best In America; have brought thla force up from nothing to be praised by the prealdent htmaelf. I am fearless, and because I am. the newspapera assail me bitterly, but I do not care what they say about me. Let them go It." After delivering himself of the above, the chief gave orders to the men be fore him to report for duty In uniform at the Irvlngton race track thla after noon, "to ahow those people put there that there la a police foroe in thla city."
