DoS'T LIKE AMERICAN CRUISERS - A
London newspaper is troubled on the sub
ject of the present organization and force o.
the American navy. The writer "blames
Secretary Robson for combining his attention
to cruisers" and advises him to build line
of battle ships after the fashion of England
the latter class of vessels afford the greatest
offensive and defensive qualities. Secretary
Robson may not see it, prehaps, in this
light. The Alabama was exceedingly effect
i've as cruiser, as were the American
cruisers of the war of 1872, even against
British line of battle ships.
