In order to show how It is proposed
to eXpend the millions it will be neces-
sary briefly to review the progress Of
the American navy. For years the
navy was equipped with only $500
men. This state of affairs continued
up to the time that the new navy was
begun in 1886. Then the number OF
men began to increase, until, in 1888
to 1890, there were 5000 to 10000.
Since the Spanish war, when there
were 10000 men in our navy, the
authorized number has been 81 500,
with $4,000 apprentices. BY a change
that has taken place recently, all men
in training have been consolidated with
the apprentice class, so that the au-
thorized force in the navy is $4,000.
There are about 81 900 men now
serving, and 1900 more are wanted.
With the increase of men the ex-
penses of the navy department in.
creased. The pay became better and
the service was consequently better
Petty officers received more money, es-
pecially the chief petty officers. In
the last year the United States has
put into the water more tonnage in

fore in any one year of its history,

sells than any other nation in the
world. Now, all these ships must be
paid for. The average cost of a first.
class battleship is S6000,00O, and an
armored cruiser about the same.
Final payments are to be made on the
Ohio, the Virginia, the Nebraska, the
Rhode Island, the Louisiana, all first

Is the United States destined to
become the greatest maritime power
in the world?
Secretary Mortons estimates for
the navy for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1906, are $l14.530, G38-an in
crease of $l7,372,44S over the appro.
priation for 1905, an increase of $34,-

largest ever made in the history of
the country OF the recent estimates,
$40 ,255,S33 Is set apart for the lin
crease of the navy" including con-
struction and machinery, armor and
armament, and equipment
To-day the United States is building
four more battleships than Great
Britain-now the greatest war nation
and the total tonnage of our first
class warships in course of construc.
ton exceeds the tonnage OF similar
vessels being built by each of the
other four great powers.
No nation is at present advancing
so rapidly with her navy-with the ex-
ception Of Great Britain-as the
United States, and this is a day OF
remarkable naval advancement in all
parts of the civilized world. Japan, for
instance, is said to be planning to
spend $60,000,OOO for new battleships
and the extension of her arsenals,
although the amount now being actu-
ally expended is S15,OOO,0OO. Russia,
since the war has been so disastrous
to her, has decided to extend her
original construction plan, and will
soon build eight first-class battleships
Germany, despite the discomfort ex-
pressed there in the late elections is
hurrying forward her shipbuildng
program. Italy and France are not far
behind the others in the race for naval
supremacy; Austria-Hungary is add
ing to the strength of her squadron:
even Brazil is spending $7,25O, 900 for
a new navy; Argentina, S4605, 900;
Chile, $3,250,000, while Venezuela,
Colombia and Mexico are appropri-

ating smaller sums, and even SLOW
going China is adding to her sea
strength at a cost of $2,500,000.
Thus, according to the latest official
figures, $530,000000 is expended an
nually by all the nations for their
naval defense against one another
And this year it is estimated that the
yast amount nearly one-half will be
expended by the United States and
treat Britain.

lesson to the great powers of the
world. 1t demonstrated the unread

rhe Japanese have revolutionized
the entire scope of naval warfare.
They have shown that most Of the
nations of the earth are in a state of
'unreadiucss." The other day a high
naval authority expressed the belief
% the writer that If Japan had en-
Gagged in war with the United States
instead OF Russia the showing made
by this country might be anything but
creiitable. All OF Japan's naval tao
tics have been on the modern line of
excellence The old naval mode of
warfare when ships brushed by one
another exchanging broadsidcs, was
slowly graduated to a range Of two to
three miles 1t remained for the Japa-
nese to increase the range to five, six
and seven miles

States find itself in to-day? Only a
few weeks ago the greatest batteship

{ NAVY OF THE UNITED STATES SOON :

this. On ships of the King Edward
class they have four nine-andtwo-
tenth.inch guns in the smaller tur-
rets, while we have. on the Louisiana,
for instance, eight eight-inch guns that
are fully as good. Then, the English
have ten siY-inch guns, while we have
twelve seven.inch guns. But while the
siX.inch gun was rated as efficient in
the past, the recent sea fight off Port
Arthur fully indicated that It has not
the penetration at the range at which
the Japanese battleships fought The
seventeen guns reached the Japanese,
but did little damage. The range of
sea fighting that the Japanese have
heightened to seven miles in some in.
stances has rendered many of the
guns now in service IN the American
and other navies practically useless in
battles with up.to.date nations. The
old naval battle where ships ham
mered one another to pieces at a dis
lance of one mile or less has passed
into ancient history along with the
day when Perry's flagship was turned
into shambles on Lake Erie.
The modern battleship must be
equipped with perfect machinery, and
1t must be manned by experts capable
of handling 1t. At the range of five
to seven miles it requires twelve-inch,
ffty.caliber guns to do the work, and
the six-inch gun Is destined to go out
of existence on battleships in a short
time. The future ship, in the opinion
of authorities, must be twice the pres.
ent weight and armed with twelve.
inch guns. In building war vessels of
this latest type equipped with twelve.
inch guns it will be seen at a glance
how easily the millions will melt away.
With the new ships and the new
guns must come expert craftsmanship.
1t now costs the United States navy
$500 900 a year for target practice.
Good craftsmanship is the keynote of
success to a navy. The Japanese have
demonstrated this. Between two ships
equally equipped and of the same ton.
mage, they defeated their enemies on
account of their superiority in gun
merry. The only way to maintain ex.
pert craftsmanship is by constant
practice. 1t will be readily understood
why target practice is so expensive
