SOME POINTERS
ABOUT THE NAVY
Washington, 13. C., May 21—Special
Correspondence -Despite the avowed
intention of the present udministra-j
tion to reduce the naval appropriation,
it is difficult to understand how, with1
the constantly increasing number of
ships placed in commission, the ves
sels are to he manned arul.thenavai es
tablishment is to be kept up to its pre
sent efficiency.
The Illinois, Kearsargeand Kentucky
are now in reserve undergoing repairs
at the navy yards. The new battle
ship South Carolina, now in course of
constructional Cramp's shipyard, will
have hetvacceptance trials in October
and the Michigan, within a few per
cent of completion, will have her trials
in duly. Both of thess will require a
full crew and complement of officers.
Moreover, the Delaware and North,
Dakota, the new dreadnoughts of the
navy, are within twenty-live percent
of completion. 'The Florida and Utah
are building and the Wyoming and Ok
lahoma are not yet laid down but have
been aut horized.
In addition to these vessels, live tor
pedo boat destroyers are more than
half completed and seven submarines
are within from seventy-live to eighty
nine p *r cent completed: and the ships
now in commission in the* navy are not
likely to become obsolete or taken out
of commission for some t ime to come.
In line with President Taft’s views,
however, Secretary Meyer is shaving
down the preliminary estimates sub-,
mined to him by the department chiefs :
for the annual budget. The same re-,
trenchment is being striven for in
other departments of the government.
John Lechner has gone to Falls
creek to do some work on his rich
quartz claims there.
