Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1893-04-24

22-ton and ten 6-fnch 5-ton breechIoad1ng
rifles, which overshadows any of the arms
carried by the United States cruisers. She
carries a crew of 574 men, and the arrange
ment of her engines is claimed to be scien-
tiically perfect. She is propelled by twin
screws, driven by four distinct sets of triple
expansion, inverted cylinder engines, placed
in four separate compartments, two sets
being coupled together on the port and star
board sides respectively for driving each
screw. No damage to one set in action can
interfere with the other and similarly each
gun has its own independent supply, SO
that the explosion of one can have no effect
on another. Imagine, if you can, this vast
floating fortress of the sea vomiting over
600 pounds of solid metal from each side at
every shot and nearly as much more from
bow and stern.
After the Blake the other British ships
seem small indeed. But among them is the
armored cruiser Australia of 5000 tons, a
handy and fast vessel, fitted with IA, 450-
horsepower gines and battery of two
9-inch and tel 6-inch breechloading rifles.
She has a bulkhead armor of 16 inches in
thickness and a side armor of 10 inches;
also the Magcienne, which has 1850 tons
displacement, length of 265 feet and a
beam of AZ feet She has 1900 horsepower
and speed 81 about IS knots. Her main
battery consists of six 6-inch breechloading
rifles The Tartar has a displacement of
ITO tons. She is 225 feet long and has a
beam of 42 feet With 1900 horsepower
she steams about II knots an hour. Her
main battery consists of six 6-inch breech-
loading rifles. With these come some
smaller vessels
II will surprise most Americans to learn
that Spain claims naval pre-eminence in
these waters next to Great Britain, and that
our old ally, France, has paid very little at
tention to this affair. Nevertheless France
has sent the Arethuse, Hussard and Jean
Bart. The Arethuse is wooden ship of
the old style, with n projecting ram. She
is 277 feet long, with Al feet beam and 90
feet draft. She can steam under favorable
circumstances about 10 knots an hour. She
is handsome looking vessel, but SO far as
fighting is concerned is just as obsolete as
a fintlock rifle. The Hussard is another
old fashioned craft, but the Jean Bart is
comparatively modern and efficient.
This is as it should be, for she is named
for the greatest naval genius France ever
produced, fisherman Is son who fought his
way up to the rank of an admiral, and of
whom scores of amusing anecdotes are still
told by French sailors, One of them runs
thus: He had the Prince de Cont as pas
senger and beat off an English attack so
that the prince congratulated him on their
escape from capture, whereupon he replied
that there had been no danger at all of that
fate, as he had taken the precaution tosend
his son to the powder magazine with
match, ready to blow up the ship as soon
as he gave him the order

Slaughter of Railroad Employees.
1t is n startling illustration to say, on
the authority OF the figures, that the
number of railroad employees killed in
eight years is equal to tho number in
the railroad service in ono year, Dec.
imation used to BIO thought trightful
havoc in war, yet here is the slaughter
Of one man in every eight,
A large percentage OF the killing and
the manning would be prevented by the
use OF automatic car eouplers, but 1t is
explained that the cost OF this radical
reform would be very great, running
up into the hundreds Of millions.
Money being more valuable than lie,
the slaughter goes on.
Another obstacle is the difficulty OF
deciding on uniform coupler. Still
another Is presented by some of tho
railroad employees themselves, whoshow
indifference and even. opposition to the
automatic devices, Tho opposition is
based on the ground that the automatic
coupler does away with hand labor.
In view OF these varied aspects OF tho
question it is strange that solution
has not been reached sooner.
