and the "Brutus," of 5000 tons and
1850 horsepower. Consequently. the
entire towing power will aggregate
nearly 5000 horsepower. The smaller
craft. however, will be used not only for
direct towing. but for steadying the
dock in rough weather. In case OF
storm. the suggestion has been made
depth, thus exposing but small por-
ton Of it's side walls to the sea. The
engineers. however. are of the opinion
that its construction is sufficiently
heavy to withstand a very severe strain.
The route selected is by way OF the
shorter than around the Cape of Good
Hope. it is calculated that the dock will
cover nearly 1900 miles before reach
ing its destination. By the ordinary
sailing route the distance is 1850
miles, going by way Of the Straits OF
Gibraltar, the Mediterranean Sea. the
Canal the Indian Ocean, the Straits Of
Malacca and the China Sea. although
it may be necessary to take the dock to
the south Of Sumatra Island and not
through the Straits. The question Of
towing through the Suez Canal is no
small problem. for the minimum width
which will accommodate the structure
is 200 feet, the width of the dock itself
being 134 feet Therefore but sc feet
leeway Is allowed to work 1T through
the narrowest part of the canal. The
Navy Department calculates that the
fleet can move at the rate Of about 100
miles per day. allowing about four
months for the entire voyage. In tow
ing. the cables used will be attached to
machines which automatically pay out
and haul in the connecting lines, thus
easing off the great strain. which would
probably break the cables in a heavy
sea.

small villages from which bombs were
thrown. II is pointed out that places
above 1900 feet in altitude escape dam
age, and the low elevation of the storm
clouds insures their breaking up by
bombs and rockets. which can be easily
made to explode at heights OF 1900 TO

THE MAMMOTH DRY.DOCK.

The Great Engineering Triumph Which
Ii Now ON It's Way Over the Wide
Ocean.
All engineers and naval people are
now watching with intense interest the
progress OF the mammoth dry-dock
Dewey on its way over the waste of wa
tiers to It's destined location at Cavite in
Manila Bay. This dry-dock, which was
imperatively needed for our vessels at
the Eastern stations, is something un-
precedented in the way of dock build
ing. and it's towage such a great dis
lance is equally without parallel. Here
tofore our vessels in the Far East have
been subject TO the courtesy of the Eng
fish and Japanese when 1t was neces-
sary to dock them for any purpose.
While those countries have been willing
to extend US every accommodation. 1t
was not the proper thing to be depend
ent upon them, and. beside, their docks
were not sufficiently large and we'll
appointed for our great war vessels
Therefore the construction of dock for
ourselves became good policy. AS the
shores Of Manila Bay are not favorable
to the construction of the ordinary dry
dock on land, the floating dry-dock had
to be adopted. 1t could be built very
much cheaper and better in this coun-
try, and the problem Of towing 1t half
way around the world, while difficult.
was not insuperable. and therefore the
attempt was ueClucu upon. since It's
completion the Dewey has been lying In
Chesapeake Bay off Solomon's Island.
and while there has been subjected to
the severest tests In docking the cruiser
Colorado and the battleship Iowa The
Colorado has 1890 tons displacement
and the Iowa II 500 tons. In the opera
ton the dry-dock is sunk, the ship
moved directly over 1t. and the water
pumped out Of the dock. whereupon 1t
rises and lifts the ship out OF tho water
In docking the Colorado the dock was
sunk in one hour and So minutes and
pumped out again In one hour and two
minutes. The Colorado was lifted two
and half feet above the water. allow
ing every part of her hull to be care
fully examined. The supervising engi-
neers say that the dock has sufficient
strength and capacity for a ship Of 90
600 tons. In spite of the immense
weight Of the Colorado the total defiec-
ton Of the dock at the end Of "a hours
was but one and one-sixteenth inches
The dock itself represents a weight
Of nearly II, 900 tons, and is q cumber-
some thing to tow. since 1t stands 50
far above water.
The towing fleet selected is composed
OF three United States GOLFERS The
largest of these is the Glacier" ship

engines Of 5000 horsepower. The
