The Montgomery is now used for
torpedo practice work exclusively.
She has been stripped of her entire
ordnance equipment and not a gun,
big or little, with the exception of two
small salute guns, is to be seen upon
what was at one time a heavily armed
cruiser. In fact, even the blue jack
cts are without musllets and there is
not a marine, armed or otherwise,
about the ship.
The Montgomery's present crew of
ISL men is made up for the most
part of mechanics whose duties, in
addition TO handling the ship, are
connected with the handling and
firing of her torpedo armament. Every
conceivable class of torpedo is stored
upon the ship and experiments will
be made with all of them during the
ships stay here.

and was discovered in that condition

After gaining the open sea, the

with some exceedingly cold weather.
SO that the trip was anything but
pleasant until a warmer latitude was
reached. In fact The passage was SO
rough that fully IS per cent of the
