Construction of the New Torpedo Boat
Progressing Promisingly-List of New
Vessels Wholly and Partly Completed.
WASHINGTON, March 16-Encouraging
reports come to tho Navy Department re-
specting the torpedo boat now building at
the Herreshoff Works in Rhode Island. The
Inspectors say that the material used is
of high quality and the work of good
character. Before the first Of March most
of the steel skin was in place, only one
course remaining to be riveted on the hull.
The deck plates are on as far as practica-
bic. The quadruple expansion engines
have been set up in the shop, and the con-
tractors expect to complete the boat by
June !, which is the date fixed in the con-
tract. The boat is required to make twen-
ty-two knots an hour, and any deficiency
on this score will subject the contractors
to penalties, while for any excess of speed
above twenty three knots they will re-
ceive bonus. II the new craft, the first
OF its kind in American ship building, full
ILLS the requirement, of which there 10
/ little doubt, it Will be the floetest boat in
the United States, and fully equal 10 any
possessed by European navies. The fol-
lowing statement shows the ships built
and appropriated for under the last ad-
ministration: Unarmed swift cruisers,
Chicago, A, 500 tons; Boston, g. 100 tons, At
lonta, 3,l90 tons; Dolphin, l4S5 tons;

or these, seven are completed, including
the Vosuvus. The Yorktown has made
her trial trip and exceeded the require
ments according to law. The new cruiser
Charleston, now building at the navy
yard, Mare Island, will be turned over to
the Government in about three weeks.
Already there has been considerable wire
pulling among naval officers of the proper

MICROSCOPIC examination OF emmensite,

opinion that it is chemical compound and

THE microscope often reveals impurities

also been seen.
AccoRpiNG to the statement OF a Brazilian
