FASTER WARoHIPS
WANTED BY UNCLE SAM

Washington, Jan. 30.-The naval en-
gineers have invited a competition be-
tween two great American manufac-
turing concerns for the supply of tGT-
bine engines TO drive the 4.000-tOn school
ships for which estimates have been
submitted to congress While both
these companies manufacture turbines,
one is an English pattern, and much
interest attaches TO the competition.
The naval engineers contemplate the
largest installment of turbine power
ever placed on any ship. 1t is a ques-
ton, 10 be determined by the manu-
facturers' proposals. whether these
vessels shall be given 5000 horse power
turbines. affording a speed of twenty
four knots an hour, or whether it will
be possible to place In their hulis 10000
horse power motors, which viii drive
the vessels at rate of tlventy-six
knots an hour.
Rear Admiral George W. Melville, re-
tired, formerly engineer in chief of the
navy. has sailed for Germany and Great
Britain to inspect turbine machinery.
