Charleston Yard May
Lose Torpedo Station

There Is well substantiated report
at the Navy Department that the Gov
ernment is preparing to withdraw most
Of the vessels from the Charleston
navy yard. and ultimately to abandon
1t as a torpedo station.
The fact is, a number of officers
about the department say, that this
move Is being carried out and that
some OF the torpedo boats which left
Charleston to attend the naval review
In New York harbor, will not return to
their former station.
In this connection, II is recalled that
three torpedo boats which sailed for
the review were unable to proceed
around Cape Hatteras, and two Of them
were compelled to put into Norfolk for
important repairs. The third was seri-
ously crippled. This. coupled with the
recent hurricane which washed six of
the torpedo boats ashore at the sta
ton. will prove sufficient excuse, II is
said, for the abandonment Of another
Southern navy yard.
The torpedo station was moved from
Norfolk to Charleston because of the
determination of Senator Tillman Of
South Carolina to have some of the
Governments naval business in his
State. He was a member of the Sem
ate Naval Committee and was, there
fore. in a powerful position.
There Is much speculation concerning
the new station for the torpedo boats
In case they are moved. The general
opinion is that they will go to Norfolk,
where they were before, and where
there is a splendidly equipped station.
