USE OF THE GUNS.

1t may be here added that in action be-
tween single ships the only guns actually
fired during the -muueuyers were to he the
one with which, she. observing officer
on the larger ship marked the opening, and
another for the close OF the time allow
ance,
That these rules were not too detailed was
illustrated i'll the capture OF the Australia, a
vessel which will be remembered as having
visited New York during the Columbian re-
view. She and the Terpschore were oper-
ating together as scouts for Admiral Sey-
mour, commanding the reserve fleet, be-
tween whom and Admiral ord Walter Kerr,
the Channel fleet, war had been declared
several days before.
Without going into details just now of
the general operations OF the two forces,
and OF their various groups of scouts, it
may be said that the Australia and Terpsi-
chore, while out scouting, discovered the
enemy's fleet, and at once made n signal 10
u coast-gusrd station for transmission to
the Lizard, for Admiral Seymour's beEefit.
But before the two vessels could :hen slip
away three cruisers were detailed from
Admiral Kerr's fleet to pursue them. An
exciting chase followed. The Australia
was u firstrclass eraiser, but ra.hsr slow,
aud the Terpsichore a second-class cruiser
OF nineteen knots. The pursuers were seen
To he three ships la the Terpsichore's class
and speed, the Apollo, the Sirius and the
Traiad.
By dint OF getting extra stokers ut work,
including volunteers. the Australia man
aged to do sixteen knots; but 1t was clearly
only staving Off of the inevitable. Mean
while the question arose whether under
the rules three second-class cruisers could
capture one first-class and one second
Class. Itwas tIIeopinion Of Capt. Aceland of
the Australia, which he sigpalled to the

ufes-Use of Guns.

Although the full results OF the summers
British naval nianeuvers are not yet known
here, the earlier operations. are reported,
and the general regulations governing them
are also made public.
One of the difficulties experienced In
settling such rules is to determine the con.
ditions of winning in combat. the British
admiralty has laid down a set of rules IN
regard both 10 fleets and 10 the combat of
single vessels, or OF one with two or more
ships.
As 10 fleets, the superiority of one over
another was to depend upon having a
greater number of battle ships, so that ir
both CHANGED TO have the same number
present no decisive result would follow their
coming into action. IT was added that
"crnsers will not affect the issue.''
Ihe rules Tor the combat of Individual
ships were put in a convenient tabular
form, and from these it appears that
battle-ship could put out of action a first
class cruiser by remaining within one mile
OF her for seventy minutes, or "A cruiser not
oi the first class by remaining there Tor
thirty minutes, or n vessel smaller than a
cruiser by being at that distance for ten
minutes, OF a destroyer II within half a
mile OF her for three and three quarter msn
utes, or a torpedo boat If within half a
mile for two minutes.
SUPERIORITY OF SHIPS.
Next, first-class cruiser could put "A
second-class or other snia Her cruiser out
OF action by being within one mile OF
her for fifty minutes: a vessel sma Her than
cruiser If within a mile for thirty
minutes; destroyer IL within half a
mile for five minutes, aud torpedo boat
if thin quarter of mile for two
minutes. A cruiser not of the first class
could put smaller vessel out OF action
by remaining within one mile OF her for
forty minutes; a destroyer IL within half
mile OF her for seven minutes, and a
torpedo boat IL within quarter OF
mile for three aud a half minutes
vessel smaller than a cruiser could
put out OF action destroyer IL within
halt a piie. for. twenty minutes, or u
torpedo boat IL within a quarter OF 4
nnie for four minutes A destroyer could
put out torpedo boat ~ within a quar-
ter OF a mile OF her for five minutes.
These carefully studied rules govern duels
between single ships, one superior to the
other inclass. Then it was established that
one vessel OF any class could not put out
OF action siugle vessel of the same class.
But two of class could put out a
ship OF the class Immediately above them
by maintainiDgst the distances mentioned
already, although this must lie done for
double the time already spoken. Finally.
n ship OF given class could put out of
action Que OF its own class with the aid
of smaller craft within a prescribed
lime

NEED OF RULES.
studyin.; up their table and drew up tn-
gether. Atlength one Of them, as belonging
to the superior force fired u signal gun,
noting that the time prescribed had be-
gun To run, and that they were within tho
prescribed fighting distance. Under those
circumstances the Terpsichore, obeying
the signalled order from Capt. Acland,
steamed off To the westward.
The pursuers, however, did not follow her, ,
knowing that one cruiser could not capture
her under the rules, and that there was n
possibility that II two we're sent she might
outrun them both. and meanwhile that the
Australia, which had turned TO the south
ward, might claim the third, II the latter
should follow her, and, and keep within the
prescribed distance for the prescribed tiina.
Thus the result was that the Terpsctore'
escaped, and the Australia, after nomnally
fighting out her time against cruiser on
on either beam and "a third asterp, sig
nailed her surrender.
This was very good illustration Of the
need OF rules as detailed as those already
given. And yet criticisms upon them were
also suggested by the result. For, as one
OF the persons aboard the Australia said,
..In actual warfare our 9.2-inch stern
chaser. to say nothing OF The two after g
inch guns, would have been so effectively
employed upon our pursuers thatit is Iues
tiopable whether they could ever have
overhauled US sufficiently TO do Us material
damage
SPEED OF VESSELS.
Besides the difficulty of allowing for the
differences in actual gun power in ships OF,
the same class, it has been suggested by one
writer that 1.-THE relative speeds OF differ
ent vessels appear to have been forgotten
In framing the ruies''in regard to putting
an adversary out of action.
He further sd US that "thereis not battle
ship in the reserve fleet which could posi-
bly, keep any seeond-ciass cruiser OF The
channel fleet within the prescribed dis
fance for the stated period. Nor is there
any cruiser which could maintain herself
at the assigned distance from destroyer
for three and half minutes, during which
me latter could steam about two miles"
However this ma be, possibly perfect
system OF rules might require OF would
be aided by a tabuIation OF individual YES
sells according to their alLaround efficiency,
in order to decide afterward what would
have been the probable rcsuitofa a real aorn-
bat in any given case. Still, for the pur-
pose OF general training. the decision ac-
cording 10 general types OF vessels. as un-
der this years British rules, is perhaps suf
ficient.

which has given much study to ~
and silver question, paying especial -,
tention to the probable results of free
coinage in Europe and America
comes to the conclusion that England
only wants monOmetallism so long as
the United States continues on a single
gold basis, but that when America
grows confident enough in her own
strength to throw off the English f.
nancial yoke England will hasten to
follow. The News expresses it's ideas
on the subject as follows:
"Thereis plain moral in the re-
mark that if the United States would
venture to cut herself adrift from Eu-
rope and take outright to silver she
would have all Americaand Asia at her
back, and the command of the markets
OF both countries, The barrier of gold
would be more fatal than any barrier of
custom house. The bond of silver
would be stronger Than any bond of
free trade. There can be no doubt that
II the United States were to adopt a
silver basis tomorrow British trade
would be ruined before the year was
out. Every American would be pro-
tected, not only at home, but in every
other market.
''Of course the United States wonld
suffer to certain extent through hav-
ing to pay her obligations abroad in
gold, but the loss of exchange under
this head would be mere drop in the
bucket as compared to the profit to be
reaped from the markets of South
America and Asia, to say nothing of
Europe. The marvel is that the Unit
ed States have not long ago seized the
opportunity. 1t has been piece of
luck that it has never occurred to the
Americans to scoop us out of the
worlds markets by going OH a silver
basis, and it might serve us right if.
irritated by the contemplate apathy of
our government toward the silver
problem the Americans retaliated
by freezing out gold. 1t could be east
ly DONE"
