BATTLESHIP
Oregon Given a Speed Trial at
San Francisco, Cal.
She Made an Average Of 1878 Knots
an Hour, Beating All Records.
The Vessel Made 1884 Knots Per Hour for
Two Miles on the Up Run-wenther
Was Perfect, Scarcely n Ripple on
the Channel Being Visible.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, May 15.-The
new battleship Oregon, built by the
Union iron works, Of San Francisco,
made her trial on Santa Barbara chan.
mel Thursday. The big ship made an
average of 1878 knots, beating all
records She made 1874 knots for
two miles on the up run, and her
average west was 170S knots per
hour. On the down run east 1854
knots, the average for the round trip
being 1878. The weather was perfect,
with scarcely ripple on the channel.
At 6:15 a. M the big battleship got un-
der way and headed for Point Goleta.
The engines were gradually opened up
and passing the Santa Barbara wharf,
the Oregon was going like deerhound
and passing the scratch line, she
was beating 1915 knots. Between
the stake boats Unadilla and the
Gedney there was a ten-mile cruise,
and in covering that the big battleship
increased instead of diminishing her
speed At times the patent log showed
speed better than II knots. Passing
the Gedney, Capt. Goodale steered the
battleship closer to the kelp than ever
he steered any of the cruisers and SO
escaped some of the remaining swell.
Even tually with one big burst OF
speed, the Oregon passed the Macarthur
on the western range near Point Con-
ception. While the long turn was be-
ing made at full speed, the run was
worked out and 17S knots an hour was
announced.
From Gaviota Point to Point Concep-
tion the swell had been heavy, but
when the Oregon was headed for the
Macarthur the second time it was at
once seen that both wind and swell
had increased, and in consequence sea
after sea broke over her bows. 1t was
hard battle to Gaviota Point, and
had it not been for that ten-mile
stretch through heavy swell, the Ore
gone would surely have beaten II
knots. From that point to where the
Unadilla was stationed the work was
easy, but when the result was figured
out it was found that the battleship
had only averaged 1910 knots.
