WASHINGTON. Sept. 2I.--All the

be short Of the best grade of me-
chanics. BY the departments
system, they have been graded into
three classes, chief, first and second
class machinists, with pay in pro-
portion.
According to the practice of the
department, a man cannot be enlist
ed as a chief machinist, but must
enter one Of the lower grades IN !
await promotion. This has brought
about the result that where a person
has served faithfully for number
of years, and by ability at
tanned the rank Of chief machinist,
he must, if he desires to continue
in the naval service at the conclu-
sion Of his term of enlistment, re-
enlist in the lower grade, taking
his chances of again getting his old
rating as chief, and losing about
SIS a month until he succeeds.
In the event that he succeeds in
re-enlisting at once, on the same
ship on which he has been serving,
he suffers no loss, as he is immed-
lately rated as chief, but in the more
frequent cases, where he has to re-
main for months on receiving
ship awaiting assignment, his loss
is considerable,

strips of steel To he placed on pdse
wiii PORN the Powerful
Plate.

CHICAGO, Sept. 2f.-A piece oI
steel armor plate is being made in
Chicago which, ii is expected, will
solve the problem of covering fol
war vessels and will withstand the
projectiles Of the biggest guns In
the world. As soon as this armor
plate is completed it will be ship
ped to Washington and subjected
to tests at the Indian Head proving
grounds.
The inventor is Paul de Hume,
formerly an engineer in the French
navy. The sample test plate is six
inches in thickness and forty-two
inches square. One superior quail
ity claimed for it is that the same
density of steel is obtained all the
way through. The plate is not a
solid piece OF steel, but consists of
steel strips one inch wide, planed
so as to make them fit close to-
gether, and then pressed upon one
another by hydraulic pressure. The
patent is for Steel strips on edge. A"
A projectile striking the plate
would do so on the harrow edge OF
the strips, and would have to pen
eterate the thickness of the entire
plate, whatever it might be,
through density as great in the
center as at the surface.
When the strips have been tight
ly pressed together, a solid steel
band just large enough to encom-
pas the square of strips is placed
upon them and shrunk to tight
fit. The plate, thus belted, is then
placed in ~" which is an inch
thick plate Of steel as wide as the
surface Of the plate, in this case
forty-two inches, and ten inches
longer, so that when the ends are
bent upward they form a ~. "
The edges will be ON a level with
the steel strips forming the body Of
the plate. This "U"is then shrunk
so as to grasp the plate tightly. 1t
forms the backing of the plate, and
through it bolts are fastened to hold
the plate to the vessel.
