Tripoli, November K>.?A report from
un Itullnn source says that an attack
by the Turks on Dorna last night was
repulsed. The Italian outposts at Toh

time, with the same result.
It is stated that a large number of
Italians are In a critical condition as
a consequence of wounds made by bul?

been purposely misshaped, in violation
of the rules of war.

THREE H-INCH GUNS
TO BE IN EACH TURRET ;
Interesting Innovation on the Battle?
ship* Oklahoma and
Nrvndn,
Washington, November IB.- -Thr< <?
fourteo .-inch guns will appear In each
of two of the four turrets of th<
new battleships Oklahoma and Nevada, ,
authorized at the last session of Con- j
gress. when these vessels are placed i
In commission. As the United States '
will be the first to place guns of the i
fourtcen-lnch type afloat, in the hat- i
tics hips New York and Texas, now j
building, the naval officials now are
directing their energies toward con?
centrating these big guns In as few
turrets as possible.
Although doubt Is expressed as to
whether the sixteett-lnch gull, which
the army now is working on for coast
delense work, would ever be available
Cor battleship use, owing to the tre?
mendous strain of Die recoil on the
gun platform, it is believed thai a
platform which can stand the strain
from tho simultaneous discharge <->i
three fourteen-inch guns would stand
the recoil from two Blxteen-lnch guns.
Ordnance experts explain that the
shock from three fourtcen-lnch guns
would certainly be much greater than
that from two of the slxteon-lnch I
type.
it is explained that the primary]
purpose of concentrating the ten four- '
teen-inch guns abroad the Oltiithotnu \
and Nevada In four turrets Instead of
urinK five, as in the case of the New
York and Texas, is to reduce the
wolghl of the armour necessary to
protect tho guns.
First to Adopt Feature.
While the United States Navy is not
the iirst to use the "throe-guns-ln-n
lurret" feature aboard its Dread?
noughts, It will be the Iirst to u:V big
nuns of the fourtcen-lnch type three
In ti turret. Italy and Kussla now are.'
bllMdlng several ships with that f?a-|
lure, but their turrets will hoiiBo three]
twelve-inch guns.
Although Bngland will for a short
time enjoy the distinction of having
the largest gun afloat?a vessel! now :
under construction by that country
having Li 13.5-tnch gun?Hint honor w'll
be snatched from her when the New 1
York and Texas are pitted In commis?
sion.
An Interesting feature in connection (
with the use of fourteen-inch guns is;
that I: has been proven by ordnance !
experts under ccmparatlve ilrlng tests j
between the twelve-Inch and fourteen- j
Inch ituns that the accuracy of the lat- !
ter Is somewhat greater than thai of
tin. former. A broadside lire 'rcrrrf the
ten fourtecn-'nch guns forming the
main batteries >.f the New York and
Texas, when they are completed, will
result in throwing approximately
seven tons of hard steel toward an
enemy.

Marvelous Growth of Mur?

Rome, November IK,?The sensation?
al opening <>r tho Camorra trial anil
the length of tue proceeding,* as yet
un?nishe?, have aroused in the public
a sense <>f the Interest and tho Impor?
tance attaching to tile Subject Of secret
organizations In Southern Italy. Dif?
ferent from the Matin, which refers to
a mode of life ruthef than to an or?
ganization, the Camorrn Is n secret
society deriving Its ritual from Spain,
and having taken its rules direct from
those or an association of thieves
which nourished at Toledo In the fif?
teenth century, it was Imported Into
Maples at the time of the Spanish oc?
cupation, and has nourished since then
as a smuggling, blackmailing and
thieving organization. The mystery
as to how It has been able to achieve
Its present strength Is partly explained
by the fact that In I860 several of its
members were enrolled the police
force, and In this connection It Is sig?
nificant to notice that the arrests in
t .:> case of the present trial were made
not by the police, but by Captain Fnb
broni, a captain of tho ?'gendarmerie." j
who came to Naples with a well estab
llshod reputation won In Sicily.
of the Lower Middle Class.
The members of the Camorra tor
the most part belong to the lower
middle class. Large numbers of them
keep grain and harness shops, ami
levy a regular blackmail off the
coachmen In Naples. Their connection
with politicians and others in posi?
tions of considerable importance se?
cures them immunity, us was shown ;
by the fact that Contain Pabbroni
was hampered in his investigations by
the police. The protection afforded to
the gang Was so barefaced that short?
ly attej- Captain Fabbroni'a arrival
.several lawyers, themselves meniDtrs
of the Camorra, started il paper in
Which they made repeated attacks
upon 'him and upon the methods be
employed. The openness of their pro- ?
ceedure is. Indeed, one of the most'
remarkable facts about the urgunir.it
t iun. It i, us shown strikingly by the
act that led to tho whole iniiu ry.
Murder of Cuoeolo,
A certain Cuoeolo, u basista, or one
of those who plan robuerles lor outers
to execute, began giving information
about some ot Iiis fellows, and at a
meeting of the gatig, at which the
present bead, Riconl, presided', they
decided that he and his wile must be
put to death. To celebrate the occa?
sion they held a banquet, and It was
while they were holding this that the
now/i was brought to them that the
double murder had been successfully
accomplished, ,
The strength of their organization
I:' shown in many v.-ays. Those ol their
members who are in prison levy black?
mail or. the other prisoners, and death
Is the price of a refusal lo submit lo
their demands. Robbery and crime
generally are kept strictly to member'*
of the gang, and tho outsider who
encroaches on what they regard as
their preserves Is very soon put out
?f the way.
Condition of Admission.
A crime ot violence is demanded us 1
the price of admission, and It Is this
that is the cause of tho many sense- \
less, Objectless murders for which
Naples is notorious.
AI times, too. they congregate fori
collective duels. The captains of two
parties start quarreling, their follow?
ers support their several principals,/ud j
p number are usually killed. Another j
sign of the disregard they show foi
society is the annual pilgrimage tnej '
make lo Monte Vlrglnle, a place nboul
four days' Journey from Naples. They

The Issue of the present trial is at 'il '
doubtful, The. accused were <lve years'
in prison before the case came Invr?
court, nnd It Is doubtful after all ibis
time whether it will be possible to get
sufllclent evidence for a conviction. Uut
the Camorra Is an Institution from
which Italy must be purged, ami the
present trial is oncouraglng as show?
ing that the government, which direct?

SHSON PLANS
TO REPAY TOLLS
Says Treaty Allows It, and
It Would Aid American
Merchant Marine.
Kansas City, M<>.. November 15.?
Secretary of. War stimson proposed a
way or upbuilding; the American iner
t'hant marine last night !n his sin. li
before thu Commercial Cltib In this
city. He puggcstcu that Congri'sn pay
the tolls for American vessels using
the Panama Canal.
Ilnssin. Austria-Hungary, Germany,
Prance, .lai>an. Italy ami Spain, he
says, have idopted this policy a?ul ro
I in burse the vessels of their merchant
marine using the Suez Canal. Who i
the Pun tuna Cunu 1 1? open, he added,
these governments will probably con?
tinue that policy and repay the tolls
Imposed upon tho'r respective vessols
which use the Panama Canul.
Unless the United states, he said,
follows the same policy, American
vessels will be at a disadvantage In
the struggle fur trail.- which will take
place upon tin opening of the canal.
ItlKbl lo Pay the Toll*.
Touching the right of the United
States to pay tolls on American ves?
sels using the cunal, Secretary Stlm
son had, not the shadow of a doubt,
lie said the United States had both
I'^.-ii ami moral right to subsidise Its
shipping passing through the canal.
Cnder the treaty with Great Urltnln
the rules of the Suez Canal were lo
govern, und In that euso It hud never
been considered a violation of the rule
of neutralization for a nation to pay
the tolls upon the vessols Hying Its
tlag. Substantially every European
government using the Suez Canal pays
auch subsidies. fully or partially
equivalent to the full tolls. Therefore,
said the secretary. It was porfcctly
clear that the United States hud the
right to apiiropri.it.. to the vessels
paying the same, the sum paid Into
Its treasurv by those vessels In tho
form of canal tolls. |
No I'rovlxlun for Operation.
He directed attention to the tact
that although there win be water
enough In the canal to float small doats
throughout Its length by the close of
the rainy season, which begin*- next
May, and while the canal will be fully
ready for ocean tratllc. through oui
own neglect no provision ha* been
mude for Its operation.
As soon as tno eana! is completed
the President's authoiity over It will
cease, unless Congress comes to the ]
rescue. A great economic loss will be
involved in allowing the present splen?
didly efllcient force of employes to
disintegrate, when so much of It will
bo needed for tho permanent operation,
of the canal.
Then, ho said, there I* the problem
of creating a permanent organization
or government to operate the .ana!
and to control the zone.
Military Problem Considered.
The secretory declared that at tho
bottom the canal presents a military
problem. Pur defensive purposes it j
will double the capacity of our licet,
r.nd to have it blockaded at n critical
moment In our national life cither b)
accident or design might be cjulte a*
disastrous as having twenty of our
battleships sunk at sea. The tempta?
tion which that fact Imposes upon
any nation with whom the United
Stales may be at war must never be
lost sight of.
In the operation of the canal, he
said, the President should have given
n free hand, using such forms of ad?
ministrative government as he may,
devise.
Secretary Stimson expected great ,
benefit lo the country from the canal;
In Its effect upon transcontinental
rates. He was inclined to favor the
ertenston over the new route of the
power of the Interstate Commerce
Commission.

another In his section of the country,
putting this down to their disagree?
