NEWPORT TORPEDO FACTORY PLANS.
Government Will Begin Manufacture of
Weapons-A New Type Developed.

Washington March 12.-Rear Admiral Mason.
chief az the naval bureau of ordnance. has Just
completed plans for the construction Of torpedo
factory the Newport naval station. and he eX-
poets TO advertise for proposals for the
construction OF the building the supply of tho
necessary plant Tris E7n be the first time tho
government has undertaken to mike its tor
pcdoes a large scale
The ordnance bureau has available slJ5 COO for
Beginning this work. The appropriation cannot be
touched before the beginning of the next fiscal
year. hut time Admiral Mason decided 10
let the contracts AT once. with the prOviso that
work shall not begin before July l. The new
factory viii give employment 10 AT least two hun
dred skilled workmen. 1t is purposed 10 make
every part Of the torpedo except the steel TASKS
which conton the compressed air used 10 drive the
engines Material OF particular excellence is re-
quired these TASKS. owing to the high pressure
they obliged to sustain. ranging in the case OF
sand pounds To the square inch. The machinery
necessary for their manufacture IS expensive. and
expert workmanship is required, that il is be-
lieVed TO be cheaper TO procure them from the
Germs now making similar TASKS for commercial
uses than TO undertake to make them in govern
ment workshop
The present type of naval torpedo $500 yards
under water the average speed OF 26is knots, but
experiments conducted bv the ordnance bureau
have developed torpedo that will attain the speed
Of So knots hour at distance Of thousand
yards. and II is possible that this type will be
adopted when fully developed. and will be turned
out at the Newport factory instead OF the present
standard type
