Especial Correspondence.1

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O.-In time of peace
prepare for war. Excepting only the civil
conflict in Chill, all the world is on good
terms with its neighbors. Yet perhaps
there never was a time when the nations of
the earth were spending so much money
for ships and ordnance. This is indeed
the era of great guns and powerful pro-
~jectiles. Wars modern missiles grow
more and more terrible; resistance in the
form of armor n submerged coast de-
lenses becomes more and more invulnera-
BILE. In this race between power of attack
and strength of defense Uncle Sam is not
now tagging. A peaceably disposed, good
natured old fellow, somewhat isolated
from his neighbors more disposed than he
to quarrel, it was a long time before he
could see the necessity for throwing away
his old brass pieces and smooth bores and
for providing himself with power guns.
Once reused, however, he moved with char
acteristic shrewdness and energy.
Only three or four days ago you doubt
less read in the newspapers that a contract
had been made between the government
and the Bethlehem Iron company by which
the latter is to build 100 high power guns
for the army. That is a very simple state

composition of the metal is a secret of the
manufacturers. If a projectile is too hard
it will fly in pieces on striking the target;
if too soft it will fatten out and fail to
penetrate. Aprojectile is intended to pen
citrate whatever it hits. In loading one of
these big guns the shot is first put in by
means of a crane. Then the charge is
put in, contained in three silk bags. A u
inch gun contains 40 pounds of prismatic
powder, each prism being about IL inches
long, with a hole through its center. The
shot costs $50, and the powder, at thirty
seven cents per pound, S162.SO. The cost
of firing a pinch gun, therefore, is about
$225. Our pinch guns are to stand 200
our 10inch guns $50 rounds, and our
s-inch guns 800 rounds. A 12-inch
gun at the highest firing angle, As
degs., will throw its shot thirteen miles.
But in warfare it would never be fired at
greater range than five miles, and at from
two to three miles it is fully effective.
There is no harbor in the United States in
which a vessel can pass more than 200
yards from a ratification"
"How about the dynamite gunsP"
IA contract was made for a number of
these guns for the defense of New York lat
Sandy Hook and Coney island), Boston and
San Francisco. Unoficially will say that
the dynamite gun is still in an expert
mental stage. But if the manufacturers
succeed in throwing an aerial torpedo of
800 to 800 pounds Of gun cotton with any
degree Of accuracy, and with a range of
from one to two miles, this country will
never suffer much from the guns of foreign
men-of-war."" ROBERT GRAVES.
