THE TORPEDO SERVICE.
The torpedo boat which will he built at
Washington navy yard is 10 he named the
"Robeson." twill be one hundred and seventy
five feet long with thirtv-tive feet beam. Her
hull will be o! iron, only three feet of which
will be out of water. The exposed part, how
ever will be armOr plated with five-inCh iron,
backed with wood. She will be propelled with
two screws, and her engines are expected to
drive her at fourteen knots per hour, minimum
speed The only rigging she will have, which
is a fair weather arrangement altogether, will
consist of two mastS, schooner rigged. Accord
ing to the proportion of work done in our yards
now, it will take, by close calculation, six
hundred men one year to build her, most of
whom will he iron workers.
The torpedo will contain one hundred pounds
OF powder, attached TO an iron beam which will
prot udc IRON the bow below the water line.
This beam will he twenty-five feet long, and so
adjusted as to be forced out by hand from the
water tight compartment through packing. 1t
will be worked by hand, instead OF steam, as
any unexpected obstruction could he more
easily detected IN that way than any other way.
1t is intended, when orders are given to that
effect, that the torpedo boat shall make straight,
under full head of steam, for the cnemys ship,
and run well under her and explode the same
by electricity, the beam being withdrawn at the
same time, The boat will be of cOmDaratiVclV
