COULD WE DEFEND NEW YORK.
Our Monitors Lock Rather Small Beside
Chili's Biggest Ship.

New York, Jan. % III Chill should
decide TO attack this city by water, she
would 10 all probability encounter, amor z
other vessels, ihe Misntonomt h, the newesl
chip of The monitor type, and the Nantucket
which is the oldest Of that class now sf jat
The contrast between these two ships tells
better than any lecture upon Tuch sub ject
could possibly do of the great improvem ents
nsds in such vessels since the dsy when
John Ericsson sent the old Monitor afioat
at Greenpoiut and bsde her 60 down ard
~hip the Merrimsc, which she did in good
shape.
The Nantucket. which is now being got
ready for active service after long rest
If 27 years is almost an exact counterpart
Of the Monitor, except thst che is larger
She has but one tu,ret and carries Two
guns. Those nov aboard her are l5-irch
.moo!hbores, but they will probably be re-
placed BY rifed guns Of much smaller cal
ibre, Her displacement is 1876 tons or a
little less than Que eighth Of that Of the
Misntonomoh. Her length over sll is 200
feet. her beam 46 fee, and she sits so deep
ly in the water that only her turret can be
seen when she is more than half mile
asay.
She is very slow aad cannot make more
han Elk knots an hour under favorable
cor rdi!ioDs Her guns would have to be
vcrked by hand As she has no modern ma
chinery. When placed beside the great
double -.urretsd MisntonomOh. with her
four l0-iucn riAed guns snd her splendid
secondary battery, she wouio ioUk like =
sktf beside q ferry boat, and it is a qae siion
if she could be OF much service.
Her srmor consists ef fvs layers of one
inch plate on the hull and eigh, inches on
the turret This was fouod efIeclve in
turning the solid shot Of the rebel forts
when ,he Nantucket was in service on the
james Il yer, but i. would hardly 20 very
far with the big coDicsl steel shut from the
81 inch ried guns ot Chili's newest and
largest war ship, the Captain Pfat, which
nv The way, is slm)st twice as big as the
MisntoDomoh and at least fifteen times IS
big 40 the Nantucket.
Naval Ulcers in active service were very
reluctant about say ing what would happen
to the Nantucket If one of ,he Csptsin
Prat's solid s. OF or shells th1uli hit her.
They thought the Nantucket would be hard
TO hit, and hy keeping in shallow water,
where the Prst could rot go, she nigh,
keep at such lorg range that the gunners
would miss her. If she wss hit. though.
they were inclined to think there would not
be much left Of her,
The Nantucket hiss only left he, dock
once since the war, and thst was about .
year sgo, when she vas towed out and an
chored in the bay to ssiule the body Of
Ericsson ~ it wss borne away to its last
resting plsCe in Stockholm.
