CELLULOSE IN WAR SHIPS.
The Cruiser New York viii Leave Her Sup
ply at a Handy Place ON shore.

ply At a HaudN race on >hore.
The use Of cellulose as a water-excluding ma
terial in our new ships will probably be absn-
doned by the Navy Department. II was in
tended for use first in the cruiser New York.
but Capt. Phillips, who will command that ves-
sci. has secured a change Of plans. He sug-
gested that the plan be abandoned for the pres
ent and that the material intended for the New
York be packed in bags and stored away where
il could be instantly had should the big cruiser
ever have occasion to give test TO her p-owess
as a fighting machine with some foreign adj
versary. when the material could be
placed in her cofferdams and a practical
trial be given Of its celebrating properties.
Many Of the ships now building were planned
with a view TO using cellulose, and should Capt.
Phillips suggestion be approved bv the Secre-
tary it is highly probable that in future each
ship will be provided with the requisite guam
tity Of the bulky material. but not 10 be placed
aboard unless the country is in imminent danger
OF calling upon the navy for action. Capt.
Phillips argues as do MANY others. that there
Ia no occasion of burdening a vessel with any
more additional weigh; than is absolutely neces-
sary for her efficiency and safety. and TO put in
cellulose would only increase the displacement
and its object could be as readily accomplished
when there was reed of il by having the mate
rial on shore in the navy yards in easy reach as
by putting ii in when the vessel is built. An
other argument in favor of this plan is the
avoidance Of any possibility of corrosion or
rust TO the ship. which some say would
result IL the material allowed to remain
in the cofferdams for any great time.
The action of the department in the mattel
will. no doubt. be influenced by the recent
trials given cellulose by foreign navies. While
some of the countries have adopted its use
Germany has come to the conclusion that its
efficiency has yet TO be proved and has
abandoned its use in her ships. France has
likewise looked askance at its adoption and
England is not over enthusiastic as to its
effcaciousness. The Austrian experiments
have resulted adversely to it. and a substitute
for IL as an celebrating material is nov being
searched for. The most rigid and successful
trial given it has been made BY little Denmark,
and the results showed conclusively the value
OF the material as a waier-excluding substance.
The experiments conducted by our naval ex-
perts at Indian Head demonstrated that the
use of cellulose would aid greatly in saving a
vessel should she be struck where the water
would gain access. No attempt has yet been
made to utilize the material in merchant ships
to prevent the water coming in in collisions
and damages from grounding and other causes.
As it is generally regarded in such cases. the
force would be great to seriously damage
the cofferdams and thus render the cell l!ose
Ineffective.
