FIREPRooF WOOD FOR SHIPS.


Assistant Secretary RoOseveIt's Objections TO
UsinE the New Material.
Among the lessons which Secretary Herbert
derived from the battle of the Yalu ono which
strongly impressed him was the danger from
fire as well as from splinters furnished by the
woodw ork on modern warships. Others drew
the same moral. and result in our service was
tho use of q fircproof wood In some new vessels.
But the remedy for the evil has developed
drawbacks OF Its own, and the examination of
them Is ono OF the many subjects turned over by
Secretary Long to the Assistant Secretary. Mr..
Roosevelt finds. as nm objection to the nrcproof
wood adopted. that 1t is expensive to work. dull.
Ing tools. Tint Is or minor consequence. how
ever. but moro serious objections are that il cor
rodes metal and by its absorption of moisture
keeps the decks soaked and waterlogged. Per.
haps the most serious charge, however, is that
the chemicals are washed out by water. and
then the wood Is more nhammable than II not
treated by the fircprOoHng process.
1t should be said that these views have not
been held in all the reports OF navy officers on
the subject, and Secretary Long will pass final
judgment In the matter. But, in view of the
extra cost of the process and the extra weight
of the wood, 1t would not be strange IL the fire.
proofed material should at least bc kept out OF
new torpedo boats, where the real danger OF n
shot is not tnat it would fire. but that 1t would
