rate of 20i knots. AS 1t is, taking the
present figures into consideration, Uncle
Sam will have paid $24S,666 on pre-
miums for the construction of the York
town, Baltimore and Philadelphia, all
three of which swift cruisers greatly ex-
ceeded the contract rate of speed.
The Philadelphia's winnings, so to
speak, were at the rate of $50 per foot
and nearly $50 second for the excess.
Even the cold figures of such statement
produce thrill of excitement, and it is
little wonder that Edwin Cramp was
reported as ''wild with excitement at the
result" and exclaimed exultingly: INA
val warfare is again revolutionizedi
The United States now has the nucleus
of the fastest navy afoat" On July 28
of that year the Philadelphia went into
commission as q warship, with Captain
Robert l.. Bradford as commander.
The summary of Americas rapid prog
ress may be given In a few words. When
the vessels authorized and now hasten
ing to completion are once afioat, the re-
constructed navy will contain AZ war
ships They ara in the allowing classes;
Armored cruisers, protected cruisers,
monitors, battleships, gunboats, and one,
the Vesuvius, which is type of itself,
combining the functions Of harbor de-
fender. ram and torpedo cruiser. When
the AZ are completed. the United States
will rank as the fifth naval power in the
world. In 1885 we were but the nine
tenth. The nations that still surpass us
are England, France. Italy and Russia. In
the order named.

bia, one of Americas latest, launched
from Cramps shipyard on the Delaware
July 20, 1892. She is briefly described
as protected sea going cruiser and has
attained an ocean speed of 81 knots.
She is run by three sets of triple ex-
pansion engines, driving three sets Of
screws, all the machinery in different
compartments, so she can be run slowly
With the center screw, faster with the
outer two and fastest with all three.
But the pride of the new navy is, or is to
be, the new speedy cruiser New York.
She is a monster indeed, with displace-
ment of $3.50 tons and good for 20 knots
an hour of sustained speed.
Her cost is S3,500,000. Her length on
the water line is $50 feet inches, her
nodded breadth GA feet, her main draft
23i feet and her coal capacity enough
to run her $4,000 miles without fresh
supply. Contrast this with the Kear-
sarge, which sank the Alabama, the little
"cheesebox on a raft" pet name for the
Monitor), which won the most noted
naval victory of the war-contrast all
these vessels, in fact, with those of any
former war-and there is no chance for
other emotion than emazement.
