MONITOR RETURNING.
Obsolete Craft Coming Back to
Meet Tragic End.

The old single turreted monitor Mon
tauk, one of the obsolete ironcIads that
rendered the United States valuable SER
vice in the war between the States. is
now on her way to Richmond from Phil
adelphia to be broken UP for old iron. 1t
4 is rather a coincidence that the primitive
old ironclad is to come back to Richmond,
as for years 1t was anchored. along with
the Jason. Nahant. Canonicus and others
of the old monitor fleet, In James Rivoc.
These old war dogs We're for years sta
toned about three miles below the city,
but some years ago they were ordered to
the League Island nayy-yard. Ph!Iadel-
phia, and have been there ever since. Re
Gently the Navy Department decided that
they were useless, save for junk, and that
they should be sold. In pursuance Of that
order the Montauk was sold and the
Tredegar Company, of this city, became
the purchaser.
The old ironclad is now being lowed to
this city. where she will soon reduced to
scrap iron. 1t is one of the type of ves-
sells constructed during the war, imme-
diately after the Virginia and the Monitor
had demonstrated the value of iron ships
OF war and rendered obsolete the old wood
ne hulks. some of which still survive as
training ships and quarantine vessels,
such as the Franklin and the James
town. In the evolution of naval warfare
the single-turreted monitors are now
themselves RELOCATED to the category OF
the things that We're.
