than that, and in proof it is said that the
contract that he brought home with him
called for 80 Of these small craft, says
the Herald, of this city. This contract
he has filled. and the mosquito fleet is
ready for the car. The boats are all
either on their way or have been deliv-
cred at various Russian ports
But Russia was not willing to stop
there, or to rely entirely on the Baltic
fleet, which she is now sending in two
squadrons, to become a new Pacific
squadron. She realized that the Japan
csc were splendid fighters on sea as we'll
as on land, and she decided to have 9TH
er squadrons to follow those now en-
route, In case these should fail.
To meet this emergency 1t is decided
to build on the Black sea a feet which
should be able to cope with any force
the Japanese could muster. Accordingly
arrangements have been made for the
construction, under the personal super
vision Of Lewis Nixon, in home Russian
waters, of 100 fighting ships, ranging
from torpedo boat dsstroyers and cruis-
ers OF all classes up to the heavily ar
mored battleships.
This work must be done within two
years, and 1t is to be assumed that Rus
STA does not expect to see the war end
until after the lapse of that time. To
accomplish this in the given time the
great chip building plant of Russia, at
Sevastopol, has been greatly augmented
and improved. 1t is now considered the
third largest ship yard in the world.
Much In the way Of making ready has al
ready been done. The enormous plant
on the Black sea will be under the
charge of Mr. Nixon. and he will take
with him to I'LL the great order 1000
skilled American artisans. These work
men will be transported half way around
the world to fill the largest order for
warships ever given.
How the new Russian navy will get out
of the Black sea. through the Dardanelles
without complications with Turkey and
Europe is a matter which at this time
does not enter into the problem.
