She handled' like a yacht and kri.swered her helm when going full cpeed astern almost as perfectly as Tvhen steaming straight ahead. She left Fanta' Barbara at £:50 o'clock Monday evening, and during the night encoun •t^rtd a stiff head wind and high sea, which. served to test her qualities as a eea boat. She behaved splendidly, and Captain Logan, v. ho is to command her, eays she is as f.r.Q a battleship as ever came off the Vays of an American snip 'yar<3. That the Ohio can be made to fulfill the 'speed requirement of the contract, dnd even surpass it, is the unanimous of all who participated in the trial. The readjustment of some of the rx&lvea and possibly a change of pro peller* would be the only alterations : necessary. " " "• .". The ne\y battleshir) Ohio, in spite of the fact that she lacked on her official triil a fraction nf the speed for ¦which lt»r contract calls, is said to be "all right" in every respect. She arrived -Jtsterday afternoon from Santa Bar brirg. an.d is now anchored off the Un ion Iron Works. .' It has not yet been decided whether or not the Ohio will be jriven another trial. The expense .of taking the big Bshtlcg machine to Sanla Barbara in trial trim and putting her through the kir.4' of paces a navy trial board ex acts is abtjut $75,000. The amount of penalty 'deducted I by the Government from Jhe cost to offset the fractional -shortcoming in the matter of speed wiD be conriderably less than $75,000. IVwouId be cheaper. for the Union Iron AVorks to pay the penalty and turn over the battleship to Uncle Sam, but it may be decided to go to the greater cost fcr the purpose of maintaining the builders .prestige ,. u '- %v - Alward and wife, Mrs. E.

JUDGE »E IIAVI3X METES OUT 3IERCY AND JUSTICE SENTENCED FOR GRAND LARCENY. — Alphonse Peterson, convicted on a charge of grand larceny by a Jury In Judge Dunne's court, was sentenced yesterday to serve five years In San Quentln. There are two other complaints againrt him and his attorney asked that they be stricken from the calendar. The Judge said he would tal;e the application un der advisement. Peterson stole several shot suns and rifles from a gun club In Solano County on January 23 and iold them in this city. The heart of United States Immi grant Commissioner North was touched yesterday morning when Lew Ah Mon, a pretty Chinese girl of 19 years, hung about the neck of her father, Lew Fong Yoo, and mingled hex tears with his. The display of paternal and filial af fection moved the Commissioner, and he allowed the yellow maiden to be landed. Lew Ah Mon arrived at this port by the steamship China, and her father was waiting to receive her. It was said that she had left this city, her birth place, in 1900 and had remained In Chi na ever since. But her photograph at that age did not greatly resemble her now and further proof was required. She then said that while here she had known an Irishman named Torn, that he was florid o* complexion and fiery of hair and beard. As the name of Thomas Bethell, formerly a police ser geant, was on her father's certificate as one of the witnesses. Mr. Bethell was sent for. He was then shuffled up with about a dozen other persons and the girl was brought into the room. She at once identified Mr. Bethell as the "Tom" sha had known, but she said that she was not sure. Mr. Bethell said that she looked about the eyes some thing like the little Chinese child that he knew. Then the girl's father was shuffled up in a pack of a dozen other Chinamen, and the girl at once threw her arms around his neck and they both wept for joy. Commissioner North shed a sympa thizing tear and Deputy Schell made a transparent feint of blowing his nose.
