Tho Infiexiblc is . costly ship. Her
hull cost nearly f500, 600, and her en-
gines and machinery almost another
f100. 900; but even the estimates will
not show what tho total expenditure,
direct and indirect, will have been upon
her before she is ready for her trial
commission, and authorities who usual
)y swear by admiralty calculations are
admitting that tho outlay before her
completion may DO from 80 to 40 per
cent. more than had been originally
expected. Tho cost Of her hydraulic
machinery and appliances is a little
eye-opcner. They have been supplied
by Messrs. Armstrong & Co., Of the
Elswick foundry. whose bill is now be-
fore their lordships. 1t only amounts
to rather more than Gao. 900. half of
which Is for mounting the four eighty
ton guns,'' which means furnishing the
hydraulic fittings for them.
