Thu: ILLINOIS A
SUBJECT OF ENVY
The Navy Department gives Con,
tradiction to Criticisms Upon
Her Construction.
Especial Dispatch to The Times.J

NEWPORT NEWS. VA, May .
When the battleship Illinois was locked
in New York, she was the subject OF
criticism on the part OF some of the
metropolitan papers. alleging faulty con-
struction and complaining that the am
nutrition hoists in the magazines were
dangerous. y clipping from one of these
papers was sent the Navy Department by
the builders of the ship, the Newport
News shipbuiitiins and Dry Dock Com
pany. which was to-day received from
the department. forwarded by Secretary
Long, special reports from Chief Con-
structor BowleS Chief Engineer Mel
Vile and Chief of Ordnance O'Neill, COM
pletely vindicating the snip and her build
ers.
Constructor Bowles declares that con-
trolling Panas operating ammunition
hoists are now being removed from the
magazines as a safeguard against acct
dents. but that the apparatus was sup
piled and installed strictly in accordance
with Government instructions and IN
accordance with patterns that have given
entire satisfaction on the kearsarge and
Kentucky. The construction ard NJ
tings,, he says, reflect the highest
credit upon the efficiency of the Newport
News company and also upon the naval
service.
Chief Engineer Melville states that re-
peated reports to him show that the ma
chinery is in good condition. lie says:
Her engines are well built. efficiently
installed, and are the equal in efficiency
of any other battleship in the navy. The
boilers of the vessel are more than SUI
ficient for the purpose intended, for on
her official trial trip the speed secured
was greater than that obtained by q SIS

proud of it's memories of renown. You
must keep ever in your minds the thought
of the supreme hour which may come
when what you do will forever add to
or detract from this renown.
Some of you will have to do your part
in helping construct the ships and the
guns which you use. You need to bend
every energy toward making these ships
and guns in all their details the most
perfect of their kind throughout the
world. The ship must be seaworthy. the
armament fitted for the best protection
to guns and men; the guns in all their
mechanism fit TO do the greatest possible
execution in the shortest possible time:
every detail, whether Of protection to the
guns crews, of rapidity and sureness in
handling the ammunition and working the
elevating and revolving gear, or in quick
ness and accuracy in sighting must be
thought of far in advance, and the whole
carefully explained in the actual work.
MEN MUST BE TRAINED.
Tbs best ships and guns and the most
costly mechanism are utterly valueless if
the men are not trained to use them to
the utmost possible advantage. From
now on throughout your lives there can
be no sackness on your part. Your
duty must be present with you. waking
and sleeping. You have got to train
yourselves. and you must train those
under you in the actual work of sea man
ship, in the actual work Of gunnery. II
the day for battle comes you will need
all that you possess OF knowledge
skill, determination, ability to bear pun
ishment and instant readiness in an
emergency. but though without these
qualities you can do nothing yet even
with them you can do but little if you
nave not had the forethought and set
purpose to train yourselves, and the men
under you alike must have the sea ha Bit
officers and men alike must realize that
in battle the only shots that count are
the shots that hit. and that normally
the victory will lie with the side whose
shots hit the ofteEest. seamanship and
craftsmanship, these must be the two
primo objects of Your training. both for
yourselves and for the men under you.
