MONSTER SHIPS.
Bids May Be Recalled and Larger Ships
Called for.

Washington Aug. 2.-Secretary Long
will approve the recommendations likely
to be made by the board of construction,
as a result of yesterdays session. that the
request for bids for battleships he re-
called and that new plans and spectica-
tons be prepared. The project will neceS-
state a delay in the opening Of bids until
after Congress meets, when the depart
ment will ask authority to build vessels
of greater displacement greater speed
and heavier armament.
The board believes that the new ships
should have speed of Is knots, a dis
placement of about 1900 tons, which
would be 1880 tons more than the Iowa $
displacement, and an armament which
shall be more powerful than that pro-
Nided by existing plans by the substitu-
ton of S-inch for 5-inch guns. The board
will not reach a decision until the en-
gineer chief makes a report. The qucS-
ton hinges largely on whether the de
partmcnt is willing to delay the work.
All the experts agree on the technical and
strategic advantages of the proposed
changes.
