new Italian ships. The Mianfonomah,
on her trip from Norfolk to Washing
ton. steamed full ten knots an hour,
and vas steered without any difficulty.
Il the rest Of the monitors prove - b.
as fast no fault need be found with
them, a. the vessels are intended for
harbrr defense bat the turrets have TO
be made in England, because We have
neither the machinery nor trained
workmen necessary for their construc
ton, and the only guns We have TO arm
the monitors are smooth bores and
small rides. We might buv guns from
krupp, bat with the blockade of our
ports, which England could maintain, it
would be very difficult t, get them INTO
the cuuntry.
