mends Special Appropriation.

Mordecai T. Endicott, chief Of the
Bureau of Yards and Docks, Navy De-
partment, has submitted his annual esti-
mates to the Secretary OF the Navy. in
the course Of which he makes some in
teresung comments upon the good Of the
service. Among the important recon-
mendations made in the estimates. cut
side OF Washington. is an appropriation
TO begin the construction Of a floating
dry dock. Of capacity sufficient to take
out or the water a ship Of thirty-fve feet
draft.
Chief Endicott says there is no dry
dock on the Atlantic coast sufficiently
large 10 handle ships Of the class named,
and he declares that one is needed to re-
pair ships of the navy. He thinks il
could be completed inside of two years,
and would supplement the docking facili-
ties at Norfolk. which he says are not
ample in an emergency
Chief EDdicott enters into the discus
sion Of the civil engineer corps, connected
with the department. regarding rank
and pay.
He asks the same appropriation
for salaries as in the schedule
Of the current year. but suggests that all
salaries be increased 10 per cent TO
