THE ARMoR PLATE DELAY.
Secretary Long Intimates That 1t
VIII Affect Future Contracts.

T
Secretary Long sent letters yesterday
to the Carnegie Steel Company and the
Bethlehem Steel Company requesting
theft cooperation II preventing delays in
the construction Of armored vessels now
on the stocks or authorized The Secre-
tary e7zpi,.fTs that il the two companies
do not deliver more armor within the
next year than Is required by their con-
tracts the vessels ready for their armor
must wait Such delay, he says. in sub
stance, may serve to prevent Congress
from authorizing more vessels at the
next session as unless deliveries of ar
NOR are made in sufficient quantities to
keep abreast of ship construction, it viii
be useless to attempt to build more ar
NOR cIads until those now under way are
completed.
The contracts with the two companies
provide for the delivery by each of 800
tons Of armor a month. after the first
year The Navy Department has esti-
mated that 500 tons month each, de
Iiveries to begin very soon, are necessary
to keep abreast of construction. Naval
officials express confidence that the ar
nor makers viii show a disposition to
assist the Government in the matter

no PLACES FOR NAVAL CADETS.
Embarrassment Caused by Lack of
Construction Corps Vacancies

Construction Corps Vacancies
The young graduates of the Naval
Academy who have been designated for
places in the construction corps Of the
Navy may be prevented from realizing
their ambition in that direction for the
next three years on account Of the fact
that there are no vacancies in the per
sonnet Of the corps and are not likely to
be before that length Of time has elapsed
Two naval cadets who have been study
i'm marine construction abroad for the
past two years and who were 10 be re
called this year to receive their commits
sions as assistant constructors are in the
embarrassing position Of not having any
places open - them
The law limits the number OF con-
structors to forty, and there are now
that number in the corps not counting
Naval Constructor Hobson, who is carried
as an extra number, having been pro
NOTED for war service. No vacancies in
the corps will probably occur until 1904
In view Of this condition Of affairs the
Navy Department IS uncertain whether
to order TO the Massachusetts Institute
II Technology for instruction in marine
construction two cadets just graduated
from the Annapolis Academy Their
course at the institute would end in 1903
with TO prospects Of giving them com
missions as assistant constructors: in
fact, it would be necessary for them to
wait until after the two cadets now
studying abroad have been provided for.
and this apparently cannot be accom-
piished in less than three Years unless
Congress shplld. in the meantime in
crease the personnel of the corps
All naval constructors assigned to in
spection duty have their hands full II is
said at the Navy Department that there
should be one constructor assigned to in
spect work on each battttahiD or each
two torpedo boats One constructor now
has charge of the work on seven vessels,
including two battleshipS
