mo GOOD REASON
Why the United States Should
Not Have a Good Navy.
SUCH IS THE OPINION OF Ex.sECRE.
TARY OF THE NAVY WHITNEY.

He Says We Have Money, Push and Genius,
the Three Things Needed for Success.
He Talks About the vesuvius and the
Yorlktown-His Opinion of His Successor,
Mr.. Tracy.
Boston, March 19.-Ex-Secretary of the
Navy Whitney is in town, having come east
to see his mother and his brother, President
Henry M. Whitney, of the West Street rail-
way, and also to transact "a little private
business, as he put it when called upon by a
reporter. The ex-secretary had just returned
from an extended trip on the electric street
railroad lines, with which he was much
pleased
Politics, when suggested as topic Of CON
versation, brought only a smile and a polite
changing of the subject, but reference to
the new navy touched a more responsive
spring, and about the fleet which has been
started under his administration, the secre-
tary said:
There is no reason why the United States
should not have as fine a navy as any other
nation in the world, and it doubtless will
have when the people are made awake to the
necessity of having one. We have money,
push and genius-the three things needed
for success-and already gratifying progress
has been made The people have every rea-
son to be satisfied with the ships turned cut
by the Cramps.
"The dynamite cruiser Vesuvius is won
der for speed, and has done more in that line
than any vessel of her size. 1t was nearly a
year before any one could be found to take a
contract and guarantee twenty knots speed
The Cramps tried it finally / thought they
were foolish to do so, but did not say So
They succeeded, getting twenty-one knots an
hour.
The Yorktown also exceeded the con-
tract requirement as to speed and horse
power. She was given a more severe trial,
too, than ever before required of any vessel
either at home or abroad
Mr. Whitney also expressed confidence in
the success of the new steam cruiser now
building By the Cramps As to his successor
in office he said 81 think he is good man
for the place, and intimated that the policy
OF building up the navy would be con-
tinued.
