INCREASE or THE NEW NAVY
Our Guns Can at One Discharge
Throw I22, 200 Pounds of Metal.
FEom the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
Captain Boutelle gave some figures in
the house iato Saturday afternoon that
show clearly the growth of the new navy
and shed some light on the work that the
house committee on naval affairs has ac.
complished in this direction. He pointed
out that fifteen years ago there was not
a single modern ship of war that flew the
Star STanglod Banner. 1--WE had not a
modern gun ailoat in the navy OF the
United States" said Mr.. Boutele; 1--WE
could not make a ton of armor in this
country. In fifteen years, while we have
not done all that we ought to have done
in that direction, we have at least ac.
cOmplishod a notable work for the char
acter of which we have n reason to feel
ashamed
He then demonstrated that the total
appropriations for the raval service, in
cluding the construction Of ships and ord
nance and the appropriations carried in
the present bill, have amounted to $751;
9NISiO. During the period of i've years
while Mr. Routcle has been chairman Of
the committee, the house appropriated
H126SS,000. or almost 30 per cent. of the
whole amount which has been appropriat-
ed for this purpose i'm one-thrd of the
whole period. During that time" added
Mr.. Boutclle, eve have increased the au-
thori2ation of vessels for the new navy,
including those in the present bill by 25S-
Ola tons, and of that amount it has been
my pleasure to introduce bills that have
carried $50, nearly 81 per cent, in three
years. The appropriations for the in
crease of the navy during that period
of fifteen years, including the present bill,
have been Sljl1lL597, and the bills re-
ported from the committee of which I
have been chairman, have in five years
carried $I3,S626 647, or nearly one-half."
Mr.. Boutelle showed further that in
three years he has introduced bills that
have provided for increases of 4750 en-
enlisted men in the navy, where the total
number of enlistments in fifteen years
have been but $500 lie pointed out that
the increase i'm the armament of the navy
has been such that at present our navy
Is capable of throwing at every discharge
of its guns, 100 pounds of metal and
of that amount. the ships that have been
authorized by the committee during the
five years of his Craftsmanship have put
aiioat and will put afloat. in the vessels
completed and authorized. guns capa bic
of 63,92S pounds of all round fire at every
discharge, or more than one-half A
similar good showing is made regarding
the construction of the III ships during
the past fifteen years, and of the con-
struction of battleshps and torpedo
boats.

Circasslan, n fine fast iron craft, the
courts decreed $300,000 for prize money.
The South Carolina, built at South Bos-
ton, stanch iron propeller, which be-
fore the war used to run between Bos-
ton and New orleans, helped in the
capture of the $4,000 Magnolia and a
dozen other lesser prizes. Even the
lumbring old Supply, a store vessel
and a sailing ship at that made prize
of the stephen Hart, n $3.50 900 capture.
The sloop-of-war Susquehanna earned
$4,000 in the Ann; the double-ender
Tloga shared In the $330,000 Victory;
the 90-day gunboat Unadilla caught
1921 900 in the Lodona and n share of
the 100000 prize money due for the
Princess Royal. The Vanderbilt, which
that patriotic Millionaire gave to the
service-his own private yacht-took
$37S000 in the Peterhoff s560,000 more
was earned for distribution when the
swift Atalanta fell a prize to the stout
monitor Weehawken.
