SPEECH OF LORD N0RTHBRooK ON ENGLAND's
NAVAL STRENGTH.


NAVAL STRENGTH.
AT dinner given recently by the Mayor
and Corporation OF Winchester, Lord
Northbrook, acknowledging the toast OF
"The Navy" referred TO the impression
produced on the Board of Admiralty by
the recent official inspection. The most
important element Of naval strength was
the number and efficiency OF the men, and
there were plenty OF fine lads ready to en-
ter the service. The training-shlps were
In Il high state OF efficiency. The
reserves were also in a satisfactory
condition. They found satisfactory pro-
gress everywhere Ia the dock-yard. and they
expected 10 realize the estimates framed in
The beginning OF the year. The armor-
plated ships under construction were being
pushed rapidly on, the. guns had been set
ued, and complicated questions OF detail
decided. AS to the appropriated ships
winch had been recently launched or were
Just completed. the trial OF the guns Of the
Ajax and the Agamemnon was very sllc-
ccssfnl, and the speed OF the Conqucror
ana Edinburgh was fully up to anficipa.

war was peculiarly open to criticism, be-
cause Of the various qualities ersuired.
A PERFECT SHIP,

war was peculiarly open TO criticism, be-
cause Of the various qualities rec uired.
PERFECT SHIP,
A perfect fighting ship OF the present
day should have very high speed and carry
a great supply Of coal. She must be pro-
tected by armor against The heaviest known
guns, and be armed herself with the heayI-
est guns, as well rs with oil the latest in.
veutions for discbarging torpedoes. She
must have q moderate draught OF water.
and be handy 10 turn. 1t would be impos-
sible to produce such a ship, and the real
question was, Which OF the desirable
qualities must be sacrificeds There was
reason to think the ships that were now
being built were not inferior to those OF
other nations. Lord Northbrook express
ed his conviction that English naval au-
thorities and engineers would show them
selves as superior In building ships OF war
as they had done in the construction OF
magnificent merchant steamers. Referring
! to guns, Lord Northbrook spoke strongly
OF the superiority of the new guns. IL
was mistake to suppose breach-loading
gun OK few years ago was superior to q
muZZle-l0adlng one, weight for weight. Ii
was the recent improvements in artillery
which made the difference. Guns weighing
| forty-three tons OF the new type were
being supplied to the ships. Some delay
had been inevitable from trying patterns,
but they were now beginning to move
quickly. The new guns, however, were
very costly, aud England must be prepared
| for heavy artillery estimates until the feet
Is fully equipped with them. In conclusion
| Lord NOrthbrook assured his hearers that,
while relying confidently upon the officers
and the men OF the Royal navy to do their
duty. the Board Of Admiralty were fully
tenance Of the naval superiority OF Great
Britain. Lord Northbrook was loudly APP
plauded throughout his speech.
