MIR. FORSTER ON SHIPPING.
English Secretary Gives His Views
as to Cunard Deal.

Liverpool, Oct. 24.-Mr. Arnold-For-
ster, financial secretary to the admir-
atty. was the guest of honor tonight
at the Conservative Clubs dinner.
In an address in which he outlined
the admiralty's programme Mr.. Forster
said he regarded the agreement be-
tween the government and the Cunard
Steamship Company as payment of
value received for protection in time
of war, and the proposed Cunard
steamers were intended to possess spe-
cial qualities not obtainab1e on a pure
ly commercial basis of agreement.
Continuing, he said the admiralty is
at present extending the principle of
employing private enterprise in ship
building. Fifty-seven ships which are
not considered effective are to be
stricken from the navy list and the
ornaments of some existing ships are
to be doubled. The construction of
submarine ships are to be doubled. The
construction of submarine vessels is
to be taken up with energy. The most
powerful squadron of cruisers which
has ever sailed the seas is about to he
commissioned, and even in the absence
of the channel fleet Great Britain
would have powerful protection.

CHIEF ENGINEERS REPORT.
Head of This Department of the
Navy Not Sure of PetrOIeum's Fuel
Value.

Heau OF Ih1s department OF the
Navy Not Sure of PetrOIeum's Fuel
Value.
Washington, Oct. 24.-Of unusual
length, but of more than ordinary in
rotary of the Navy of Engineer-in-
Chief George Melville. He says with
the greatest frankness that the person
mel act has proved to be a failure as
it is administered; and he declares that
one-half of the officers of the navy
fits of the amalgamation. Still, he
thinks that If the law were admins
tered with a desire to make it a sue
cess, it would give the most efficient
navy in the world. To that end he
wants an engineering laboratory at An
napolis like that at Charlottenberg,
Germany, for experimentation, and the
education in engineering to young line
officers.
That portion of the report of the
greatest interest industrially pertains
to the use of petroleum as a substitute
for coal on shipboard. The report says
THE more this question is investi-
gated the more intricate seems the
problem of successfully installing an
oil fuel appliance on board a battle
ship. 1t ought to be successfully used
on the torpedo boats, as we'll as upon
auxiliary naval vessels, that steam be-
| tween regular ports. The first line of
inquiry by the board was the engineer
ing or mechanical feature, involving the
| possibility of successfully burning oil
for steam purposes, and it said that
| this problem is nearing solution. 1t
| has been found necessary to atomize
| the oil instead of using it without pres
sure. The air blast should be heated
| by some simple device, and If this is
! done properly, the experiments have
| shown that it will be possible to force
the combustion of oil to the same ex-
tent as COAL something not before
done, but very essential for naval uses"
Treating of the commercial aspects
| the report makes the following state
ments;
''It may be regarded as a certainty
that except wherein unusual conditions
| prevail the cost of oil for marine pur-
! poses will be generally greater than
| that of COAL The cost may be less fol
| vessels departing from the Gulf and
| California seaports, but the rule will
hold elsewhere. While the question of
cost should be of secondary importance
| in military matters, it must be taken
| into consideration. 1t is the expense
| of transportation that will always pre-
vent the oil from being a cheap COM
bustible. While 1t may be put on the
tank steamer very cheaply at ports
| like Point Sabine. it's commercial value
| will be determined by the cost of de-
| livery at commercial and maritime CEN
| ters."
