Cost of Maintaining BafHcships

A calculation of the annual cost or
the annual cost of maintaining indi.
yidual types of craft in the British
navy was recently made by Admiralty
Secretary Edmund Robertson writes
W. S. Merriwether, in the Washing
ton Post. BY this IL is shown that
II costs Sl,157,500 to keep a British
battleship in commission one wear A
destroyer involves an annual outlay
of $SS.5O0, torpedo boat S30,50O.
1t was with cable brevity that these
figures were transmitted. The enor-
nous sum required to maintain n bat
tleship for Il year makes one wonder
If there had been some error in trans
mission. That vessel costing, say,
$G,000,000, should in tho course OF less
than six years equal its entire oriei-
nal cost in the mere matter OF main
tenance would seem incOnceivable at
first glance But when one compares
the figures given with our own expen-
ditures in this direction the calcula-
tions do not seem TO be so much
astray. The fiat cost of maintaining
an American battleship In commission
in no instance equals. or nearly
equals. the sum which the admiralty
secretary finds is necessary for the
maintenance of n British battleship.
But 1t Is likely that he has included in
this estimate the cost of the estab-
lishment which maintains the ships.
No mathematician has yet figured ont
the cost of our ships OF war on lines
which would include the cost of yards,
docks, &C. If this were done, 1t
would be found that. under our pres
cnt very absurd system. or rather
very absurd lack of system, in con-
Quoting naval affairs. that the cost of
maintaining British battleship
would be a poor, cheap. ana tawdry
thing in comparison with the cost OF
maintaining an American war vessel
of the same type.

the Spanish war has cost to date ST.,

from another. This necessitates co

nance was mainly for the powder and

correspondent who Is with the fleet
estimates that the cost of the ammu
milton expended at target practice in
Magdalena Bay alone foots up to n
total cost of 100000. THAT expen-
diture,' he says. in giving the views
OF the officers, lis not expensive. On
the contrary. 1t is the best money
spent by the United States navy. II
is the premium of insurance paid an.
nnally for efficiency. and II will prove
its value If these ships ever get into

AS has been said, no one has vet
Inquired out just what our ships cost
when the cost of the establishment Il
included. The one who has made the
nearest approach to it is Pay Inspec.
tor John A. Mudd. In 4 paper which
is published in the naval institute
this distinguished officer says that of
the hundred millions annually appro.
priated for the navys support, $751;
100000 in round numbers are spent
TO pay the wages of labor In navy
yards.
This amount. says the pay inspec-
tor. is nearly equal TO what II costs
TO support the fleet in commission.
The accounting for the actual dis
bursement of these eighteen milliona
is thorough. too thorough, perhaps.
The accounting for why the money
was spent is simply the unregulated
and generally unexam!ned show OF
results. with little or no proof that
the results equal the values expended.
For the fiscal year of 1906 he adds
that the cost of maintaining all ships
then in commission was S23,G55..
950.d1. Thus the total cost of the
floating part of the establishment,
during the year. excluding cost of new
construction. s91, 1854. 1858 alone, was
s29,2O6,259.42. 1t cost during the same
fiscal year to maintain all the navy
yards and other shore station. $11.-
l15.0SO.S1. Besides this there was
expended for buildings. chattels. &C.
and for machinery at these places the
sum of S9,5S9, $4,000. making the total
of the real maintenance cost of the
shore part of the establishment $780,
694.263.90: OF course this latter figure
does not include the work done at The
yards on or for ships; It Is solely the
