There are some interesting figures
as to the amount OF firing done by
our ships during the battle between
the United States and Spanish fleets
during the battle in the harbor of
Manila. j. S. Stickney, the CORE.
s~pondent Of the New York Herald
who was on the flagship Olympia
during the battle, makes the follow
Ing statement.
The Olympia fired lI6i shells, ag-
g~regating twenty-five tons in weight.
The Baltimore did even heavier fir
ing. being called upon to reduce the
forts after the first engagement, and
sent no less than thirty-five tons OF
metal into the Spanish ships and land
batteries. The remainder Of the fleet
shot a total Of eighty tons Of metal.
making a grand total of n hun
dred and forty tons.
Mr.. Stickney says the eight men
who were hurt by the explosion on
the Baltimore continued TO fight IN
til the end OF the battle. The Bos-
ton was struck once and the officers
quarters set on fire. For some reas-
on the Spanish gunners seemed to
think that the Baltimore was espec-
tally dangerous, having the general
build OF a battle ship, and, next 10
the flag ship, had 10 stand the greatest
amount Of firing, and was struck sew
eral times, with no great damage.
The Concord and Petrol were not hit
at all, although the latter went deep
er into the enemy's position than any
other vessel in our feet. The Olym-
pia made a glorious record. She was
struck thirteen times, counting the
shells which tore through her rig
ging. but she came ont as good as she
went i'll. The Baltimore was hit
o fairly than any other OF the
ships. Two shells pierced her hull.
but the commander estimates that the
total damage Is not more than 1900.
Mr.. Stickney says the money loss
20 the SpaDiards by reason Of the
battle Is placed at s5,0O0.OOO. 20 say
nothing OF the probable loss OF the
city OF Manila and the whole group
Of PHILIPPINE Islands.

terrible war ,.nr,n..

N#..M
Tho dynamite cruiser vesuvius,
which has just left Newport to Join
the squadron OF Havana, is an exper-
iment in warfare which will be watch
ed with great interest by naval au-
thorities all over the world, and will
undoubtedly be given an opportunity
TO demonstrate her merits before the
war is over. She is supposed to be
more effective in battle than any Of
our battleships, cruisers or torpedo
boats, the most destructive agency in
the entire world, and she is the only
craft Of her kind in existence, but her
efficiency has been 30 stubbornly
questioned that the government has
not duplicated her.
II che should prove equal to ths
promises her defenders have made
every nation in the world viii add
similar vessels to their fleet. She is
small, swift and easily handled, and
carries three pneu mntlc guns, each OF
which discharges 5000 pounds OF
n~itroglycerine every five minutes.
Nitroglyccrine has five times the eI-
plosive power OF gun cotton or ordin-
airy powder. No ship could stand a
moment against an explosion o: this
kind. even though it occurred in the
water 100 yards from her hull. Cap
tain Kalinski, who Invented the guns
has described the effect OF their dis
charge as Hell let loose and even
that does not seem to do full justice
to the destruction that would be
caused by scattering three-quarters
OF a ton OF dynamite every five min
utes in q city or fortress or among a
fleet OF vessels,
The p~rjectiles are so arranged
that when they strike anything they
will explode and scatter the dynamite
they contain in a shower over a large
surface. they a also be made to
explode automatically by clockwork.
Imagine seven or eight shells drop
ped into a city like New York or
eve Havana, or in the midst Of a
feet Of warships. So long as her
guns are in condition for use no yes
sci would dare to attack the Vesuvius
without inviting total destruction,
IL this little craft were persued il Is
only necessary for it to stand still and
await the proper moment when the
discharge OF n or all OF it's guns
would annihilate it's pursuer. 4
cruiser or a ~battleship might as we'll
sail straight over Niagara. But the
critics Of this little craft insist that
she will be absolutely uuservicable
in rough water and her machinery is
80 delicate and complicated that it
will be apt to get out OF order when
it Is needed the most.-Chicago
Record.
