IN TESTIMONY GIVEN TO A SEN.
ATE COMMITTEE.
NO NAVY IN ALL THE WORLD
surpasses Ours In Gunnery and the
Danger Of Accident Through Ex-
pIosions In Turrets Has Been
Greatly Reduced.

Washington, March 4.-Four naval
officers, all experts in turret construc-
tion and ammunition manufacture, tes-
titled Tuesday before the senate naval
committee In defense of the American
navy against all forms of criticism.

special board on turrets; Commander
F. f. Fletcher and Lieut.. Commander
Y. o. Chase-spoke In detail concern.
ing turret accidents and the methods
that have been adopted to make tur-
rets safe.
None of these officers seemed to
think there was great danger from the
direct hoist IL some changes were
made to provide more effective screen
ing between the ammunition handling
room and the big guns. Prof Alger
defended the American navy against
the criticism made by Commander
Sims that poor marksmanship was
shown at Santiago. He declared that
American Workmanship was as good
as that of any navy at that time and
that at the present time there was no
navy i'm the world that would surpass
the American in straight shooting.
Prof Alger testified as to the excel.
lency of American turret construction.
He described the Missouri accident.
and said that never again will fire get
into the magazine in that manner, for
the copper flaps covering the apertures
through which powder Is passed are
always kept in place.
The discovery of scrap iron, frag.

practice of having officers on board
ships weigh loads of powder. He had
heard of only three instances out of
thousands of sacks of powder where
foreign matter had been found.
Lieut.. Commander Joseph Strauss,
on duty at the proving ground at Indi.
an Head testified as to the cost OF
government manufacture of powder.
The plant at Indian Head turns out
$500 pounds of powder a day at a
cost of about 45 cents a pound. The
