MAsTs FOR WARsHlPs.
Skeleton Ones to be Put in the New
eattleships.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 2S.
The naval constructors who are en-
Gagged on the plans for the next bat
tleship to he built by this country
have completed the design for a
skeleton mast, with the same prin-
tiplcaof construction applied to the
yards.
This mast will support the obser-
Walton tops, where will be situated,
the fire control officers, those
who direct the gun fire by
means OF observing the wi,
nerablc points of the enemy
and ascertninlng by rangefinders the
proper direction of the projectiles.
Formerly masts Of this kind were
built Of hollow steel; hereafter they
are to be Of skeleton steel frame
work SO that n shot coming i'll con.
tact with the mast or yard so built
will not bring 1t down or do more
than destroy n part of the support.
This Is new feature in battleship
construction, and is understood to
be. adopted from foreign vessels
which are nSW building.
1T Will introduce the principle Of
presenting to the enemy as little of
u target MS possible. 1t Is believed
that the percentage of hits possible
at sea In action will be small enough
TO protect the structure from demoli-
ton.
