In the year 1881 chain cables began
to supersede the hempen ones. with
the result that the long shanked an
/ chors hitherto In vogue were no longer
necessary. and anchors with shorter
shanks and with heavier and stronger
crowns gradually came into use. In
consequence Of these changes, COM
mission was appointed In the year 1888
to inquire into the holding power Of
anchors, and principal result Of its
labors was the adoption Of the 60
called admiralty pattern anchor, which
continued to be used In the navy up
to the year 1860. The invention Of
the steam hammer in. 1912 made the

comparatively easy and reliable proc
ess, SO that from this time onward
the strength of anchors fully kept pace
with that Of the chain cables which
had come into general use.
A number Of patents for anchors
were taken out prior to the great ex-
hibition Of 1851, and public attention
having been called to the models there
shown, in the following year com.
mittee was appointed by the admiralty
to report ion the qualifications AZ an.
chors OF the various kinds. Practical

result. Trotman's anchor took the
highest place. Rodgers anchor being
second on the list. Some of the tests
to which the anchors were submitted
were Of doubtful value. such, for in.

considered an advantage for an anchor
to offer as little obstruction as posi-.
