BATTLESHlP WISCONSIN.
On Her Trial Trip She Reaches Speed Of
1854 Knots.
The Alabama Alone Has Approached
This-EverythiHg Worked to Per-
lection I'm Al Respects.

Santa Barbara, Cal, oct. 12.-Tho
Wisconsin has just completed the most
successful trial trip ever made by
Oattleship and she is pronounced the
finest vessel ever turned out by the
Union Iron works At the start many
things seemed against a successful trial.
An easterly wind was kicking up
choppy sea and threatening a squally
voyage. After preliminary spin over
a part Of the course the big vessel
steamed fun ahead passing the eastern
beacon at 1920 a. m. at a speed OK
ceeding l6 knots The course was
marked by the battleshlp Iowa, gunb0at
Ranger, training ship Adams and cruis-
or Philadelphia. Between the Ranger
and Gavieta the Wisconsin gained her
maximum speed of 1854 knots per hour
and maintained throughout the Westcr-
IS course an average speed Of l1l9
knots. The average speed " the entire
run siXty-fOur knots. was lI2l knots
per hour. The only other batueship
approaching this speed is the Alabama,
which averaged li,Ul3 knots and at
taincd a maximum speed Of 1903 knots
The average number of propeller revo-
lutlUus during the western run was
1894 per minute and on the return
1872 Is, a difference OF only 10 Of a reyO-
luton. So close a run has never been
made before The average steam pres
sure was $50 pounds and the vessel was
under forced draught The boiler
valves lifted frequently. When at her
maximum speed the vibration was
slight approximately the horsepower
was II 500 1t ls expected that the tidal
corrections, when computed win ind-
cate greater speed than recorded as the
current was against the vessel FOR
longer period than with her The
weather continued sQually, some rain
falling until more than half the course
was completed. After turning al the
western beacon, of Point Conception,
she had O whitecap sea, with bows on
for nearly a quarter OF the return
course She shipped no water forward,
but the water rose IN the bow wave 20
feet. From start 90 finish. there was
not a marring incident, not an irregu-
larity In the movements OF the machln-
cry Without stopping the engines the
