REMOVING THE OLD GUNS.

Modern Weapons Force the Histor-
icaI Relics from Fort Hamilton.
The old smooth-bore guns that have
adorned Fort Hamilton and guarded the
lower bay from the Long Island
shore for so many years are being re
moved to make place for the new and
improved rapid-fre rifles. The work of
making improvements TO the old fort
was begun more than two years ago,
and is being pushed as rapidly as pos
sible.
Most of the large Rodman guns that
were mounted there long before the war
and never fired have been dismounted
and are now waiting to be sold for junk.
Some of these guns are the largest that
have ever been made in the United
States, and when they were construct
ed were considered TO be the finest speci-
mems of the gunmaker's art. Several
of them were 20 inches in diameter in
the muzzle. They were never dis
charged, for the government failed to
make any projectiles for them. They
were used as ornaments, AID for the
men stationed there to practice with.
One of the new ten-inch rapid-fire
rifles that is to take the place of the old
guns has been mounted on Bufing-
ton-Crozier disappearing carriage at
the southern end Of the works. 1t is in q
easement constructed of concrete over
20 feet in thickness, backed up on the
shore side by earth over so feet thick.
When the gun is in repose or loading
condition it is far. below the top of the
easement and secured from the view of
the enemy. This gun was mounted
some time ago, and marks the begin
ming of the improvements that are % be
made, and which, when completed, viii
be one of the strongest coast defenses
In possession of the government. There
are to be four of the guns mounted.
The second easement is now in course
of construction and will be ready to
have the gun mounted within the next
two months
Many of the old guns that have been
at the fort have become historic relics.
