on one of the largest lathes ever built. Later
the breech mechanism Is attached. From
technical standpoint the lathe work and Kin
dred operations may be considered the most
important operations in connection with the
construction of the 14inch gun. To indicate
the scope of this work it may be cited that
one of the cutting tools in going from end to
end of a jacket hoop travels IL miles and
requires Sc hours for the operation. An ex-
tension must needs be provided to enable the
largest lathe at the naval gun factory to ac-
commodate the 14-inch gun. but with such ex-
tension provided there are several lathes at
the big plant any of which are capable or
handling this new size weapon
Extreme accuracy in fashoning the tube Of
the 14-inch gun is essential, since the general
efficiency of the gun is dependent upon the
uniform diameter of this foundation tube, upon
which in due course the layers of hoops and
bands are shrunk The tube contains first the
entire bore ir which the big projectie will
travel distance of 542 inches ere 1t leaves
the muzzle OF .s- gun This bore should not
be more than two onethousandths OF an inch
out of straight line If it is to meet require
ments and it is fitted with SO rifing grooves,
which decrease in width as they approach
the muzzle and the purpose of which is to i'm
part to the projectile a rotary motion that
will prevent the missile from turning length
wise in flight and thus losing its force. Sec
ondly the tube contains the powder chamber
In the new 14-inch gun the capacity of the
chamber is 15,843 cubic inches. being designed
to accommodate the 800 pounds Of smokeless
powder which will constitute the full service
charge of the new weapon.
Interesting is the construction OF the
new gun, it will be equaled by the Importance
of the tests of the monster shooting iron" at
the Indian Head proving grounds. 1t has been
figured that a projectie fired with a full
charge. will have a penetrative power at the
muzzle of more than % inches of the latest
Krupp steel armor At 5000 yards range the
projectile could pierce armor Is inches in
thickness, and at 5000 yards the penetration
would embrace everything up to Krupp armor
12h inches in thickness. At 5000 yards an
extreme battle range. the penetration will be

IRENE range of more than 20 miles,
but what might be termed its effective
range. that is. the range at which 1t
would engage the enemy in battle
conditions, is five miles.
The most spectacular operation In
the construction of this new 100000
"peace-makor," as in the manufacture
OF all heavy ordnance, Is the jacketing
OF the gun. The method of procedure
Is to first bore the tube Of the gun and
finish It's outer surface; then finish the
jacket inside, and, finally, shrink the
Jacket on the tube. AS preliminary
to the delicate operation the jacket is
heated to a temperature of 600 de-
grees in cylindrical furnace, occupy
ing a, pit 40 feet deep. Air, blown
through a furnace where white heat is
maintained, is forced through and
around the jacket for 20 hours. The
burning blasts of oil make a roaring
that completely browns voices and
therefore the entire operation is di-
rected by signals and without word
being spoken.
After the ponderous jacket has re-
ceived it's baptism of fire the mass of
glowing metal is lifted from the heat
ing furnace by means of crane
which, despite it's tremendous power,
is capable of such delicacy Of opera
ton that it centers the jacket within
one-thirty-second of an inch over the
tube and lowers it over the tube at
the rate of foot per minute. After
the jacket has cooled and shrunk on
the tube its outer surface is finished

tunity to study the other side of ordnance
work as an officer of the cruiser Brooklyn.
After the war he was successfully inspector Of
ordnance at the League Island navy yard and
at the naval torpedo station and latterly was
promoted to the highest post in the naval ord
nance organization.
Another officer of exceptional ability who
is playing an influential part in the creation
of the navy's new weapon is Rear Admiral
E. N c. Leutze, superintendent of the naval
gun factory. Admiral Leutze is native of
Prussia and graduated from the naval acad-
envy in 1867. Early in his career he was in
charge of surveying parties that went over
the Panama and Nicaragua routes. During the
Spanish-American war, in command Of the
Monterey he was ordered to the relief of Ad-
miral Dewey in Manila bay; was present at
the taking of the city of Manila, and took part
in several engagements with insurrectonists.
1t fell to his lot to re-establish the Cavite
navy yard, an experience which aided to quail
ify him for his present responsible position,
which he has held for upward of nine years.
In the eyes of the average layman the
navy's tentative adoption of the 14-inch gun
appears somewhat revolutionary in view of
the fact that it was but few years ago that
the naval authorities seemingly proceeded in
the opposite direction by declaring in favor of
the 12-inch gun in preference to 13-inch gun.
with which our earliest batteships were
equipped. Any inconsistency of policy is, how
ever, apparent rather than real, and the new
14nch gun will be much more effective in hit
ting power than either the IL or 13 inch type.
The new gun, with length of 1914 feet, will
weigh in excess of SO tons-that is, 10 tons
more than the 12-inch guns built for the new
batteships North Dakota and Delaware and
six tons more than the yet more powerful IL
inch guns designed for the battleships
Arkansas and Wyoming. The 14-inch gun,
which will hurl 1,400-pound projecte at a
speed of 1900 feet per second, will have an ex-

where he remained for five
years. After an interval of sea
service he came back to the bu-
reau and from 1893 to 1896 was
inspector Of ordnance in charge
of the naval proving grounds.

every likelihood that the 14inch gun "
will make its appearance in the equip
ment of the heaviest of our new battle
ships. Indeed it is stated that the
board of naval construction has al n
ready prepared plans for two different M
types of battleshps, each design call H
ing for a main battery Of eight 14-inch 5EM
guns. IL
In the construction of this initial -
14-inch gun for the navy there has EA
been, as is customary with all our ma -,
val ordnance, cooperation between
private mandatory and the govern tvws
,ment ordnance plant. The naval gun M
factory at Washington does not include M
a foundry, although congress has been M
urged several times in recent years to M
provide this adjunct that heavy ord
nance could be constructed complete
under government auspices. The pres
.ent limitations make it necessary to
procure gun castings from private
firms and finish them at the navy de-
partment shops. This procedure is be-
ing followed in the case of the 14-inch
gun. The contract for the assembled
forgings awarded to the Mdvale
Steel Company early in the present
year, the firm being allowed AZ weeks
to complete the work and make delivery at
washington, where will be conducted the deli
cate operations of rifing and chambering the
gun, etc.
In preparation for handling the 14-inch gun
some important changes have been made in
the arrangement and equipment of the great
naval gun factory on the banks of the Poto-
mac-one of the most important institutions
of the kind in the world These emergency
preparations, as they may possibly be termed,
are but the forerunners of yet more impor-
tant permanent revision at the big factory.
1t is the desire of the bureau of ordnance of
the navy to enlarge the gun factory buildings
and increase the size and power of the ma
chinery equipment to point where it will be
possible to handle all classes of breechloading
rifles up to 17-inch. OF course there are no
17.inch guns in existence now or in immediate
contemplation, but the navy desires to be pre-
pared for all eventualities. AS in a measure
indicating the trend of development it may be
recalled that the United States war depart
ment few years ago constructed and has
mounted on Romer shoal in New York harbor
a 16-inch gun. To be sure there were rumors
at the time the 16-inch gun was tested at
Sandy Hook that the showing made was
scarcely as gratifying as the officials had an
tcpated, but evidently the naval experts are
confident that the deficiencies, IL any exist
will be remedied No other Interpretation can
be put on their ambition to be in position to
manufacture 16-inch even heavier guns
Just here it may be explained that the energy
which has been displayed i'm pushing toward
completion the new naval gun is in some
measure attributable to that perpetual, nev-
liable rivalry between the two arms of the
service for superiority in the range and power
of guns. The war department has five 14-inch
guns under construction and two of them have
ghad the construction work expedited in every
,possible manner, but il would not be strange
