Some Naval Comparisons.

Admiral Dewey's comment ON the
German navy and the subsequent
ebullitions of German newspapers
give partinency to the table of COM
parative naval strength Of various
nations recently prepared by Captain
Sigsbee. In total tonnage of war
vessels the United States rank third,
with Germany close fourth. But
many of the craft reckoned in this
| total would not be serviceable in war
with first class power, although
they are useful in dealing with the
South American governments and in
patrolling out of the way coasts.
A bet ter basis of comparison is the
number and tonnage of the armor
cald ships which would do the most
of the fighting AT present Germany
ranks third, displacing 24o.0 tons,
while the United States is fifth, with
twenty four ironclads of l77vO00 tons
displacement. Both countries are
making additions to their fleets AS
it takes about four years to build n
battle ship in America. the five just
authorized by congress should be COM
pleted in 1907. In that year. accord
ing to Captain Sigsbee, the United
States will have thirty five battle
ships, twenty four of which will be
rated first class, while Germany will
have thrifty eight. of which twenty
five will be modern vessels of more
than 10, 600 tons displacement. At the
same time this government will have
ten large armored cruisers against
eight belonging to Germany. For
the next few years, therefore, the
naval force of the two countries is
likely to be about equal, so far as
ships are concerned. The advantage
would be determined largely by per
sonnel aud by the location of the
scene of operations.
The experience of Admiral Cervera
showed pretty plainly that naval
raid on the coast of powerful op-
ponent, several thousand miles from
home, is practically out of the ques-
tion. without coal battleship is as
probably not ship of the line in
either navy which carries enough fuel
to venture 5000 miles away from a
coaling station. In case conflict
should occur over the Monroe doctrine
in Venezuela the proximity of naval
great advantage to the United States.
Port Cabello, for instance, is not more
than 800 miles from San Juan, or 1900
from Florida, while it is several
thousand from the nearest German
port. The advantage of position, in
short, gives This country naval supre-
macy in the new world over every
