POOR WORK BY THE pnrREL.
She Makes Slow Average Speed,
Owing to Bad Coal.


Owing to Bad Coal
BALTIMORE, Nd, July 1S-This morn
ing, at 11:30 o'clock, the naval board again
went down the bay to test the new gunboat
Petrol, which, while successfully standing
the official test on Monday, met with a
slight accident to her machinery, and Svas
obliged to return for repairs to Baltimore.
The test to-day was four hours run und ar
forced draught.
On the return of the Petrol tonight, it
was learned that her best speed, under the
forced draught, was Is 7-l0 knots or 1917
statute miles for short tune, while her
average speed for the four hours test was
II 7-10 knots or 13 $40 statute miles
1t is thought that the low aver
age speed is due to improper
coaling, the coal being of poor quality, and
the fires being started long before the test.
Going ahead at seven knots, the engines
were stopped in five seconds; backed in
three minutes, and the ship gathered her
sternboard in three minutes and twenty
seconds.
