RAM KATAHDIN's LAST VOYAGE
Final Orders Awaited to Test the
Fitness of Craft.

PHILADELPHIA. May 31.-Final orders
are awaited from Washington before pre-
pairing the ram Katahdin. now at the
Philadelphia navy yard. for her last voy-
age. 1t has been decided to make a demon
stration of the fitness or unfitness of that
particular type of vessel.
1t was always a question among naval
experts as to the real value Of the ram
In battle. Although in service during the
war with Spain, the katahdin did not go
into any action and remained merely a
member of the coast fleet. Her designers
hoped great things of her. believing that
her low freeboard and small Superstruc-
ture would make almost impossible
target, enabling her to ram an enemy's
vessel and escape serious damage.
The ship Is now to be taken out to sea
and used as target for big-gun practice
on the summer cruise of the Atlantic
squadron, which will commence June II.
