UNCLE SAINTS GUN FOUNDRY.
Where the Heavy Ordnance For Our
Warships Is Made.

Washington Star: The Washington
gun foundry is one Of the landmarks of
! the national capital. Inasmuch as it
| is there that all the high powered
guns and their mounts for the equip
ment of our modern ships of war are
ma manufactured, it is a place of special
interest TO visitors in these days OF
wars and rumOrs of war. Originally
established as q navy yard for the con-
struction and repair of warships, 1t was
long since abandoned as such, and is
now devoted almost exclusively to the
manufacture of guns and ordnance ma
terials. The entire gun plant and ap-
purtenanceS have cost about Sz,UOO,OoO.
The gunshop is filed with the most
powerful and approved machinery for
turning. boring, rifiing, jacketing and
otherwise finishing the immense rifles

we'll as the smaller rapid fire guns.
which form such an important part of
the secondary batteries of the cruiser
gunboats, and, in fact, all vessels OF
war The largest lathe in the shop
commonly called the sixteen lathe, "
was built for turning out gun l6
inches in diameter or barrel, AZ feet
I inches long and weighing 10 tons.
This size has been found too large for
practical use. however, and the largest
guns made for the navy are but l3-inch
calibre.
The lathe which is. used for boring
the interior of these guns is about. 10
feet long, and cost nearly $780, 600
Smaller lathes are used in the case of
the smaller guns. Travelling over these
lathes 30 feet from the ground is an
immense crane capable of raising and
carrying from one lathe TO another
dead weight Of 125 tons. In the centre
of this building is the shrinking pit,
in which are located furnaces for heat
ing the Jackets and hoops for use in
shrinking the gun tubes. These fur
naces are heated to between 600 and 400
degrees, the heating power being naph-
tina oil with air blast.
A separate building is devoted to the
manufacture of gun mounts and car
ridges. and is provided with the latest
and most approved machinery. as is
also the projectile shop near by
There are many historic relics in the

Near the east door Of the gunshop is

such success by Captain Samuel c.

his never to be forgotten engagement
with the British fleet at Fayal Sept.
