Anniversary of the Battle Cruiser
Yosemite in SbaniSh-Ameyicam Var

ken from the report of Commander w.
H. Emory, who was in charge Of the
Yosemite during the fight, as it ap-
pears in the book:
II have the honor to report that
about 5 80 o'clock on the morning of
Tuesday, June rs, we sighted a steam
er to the westward, about two miles
distant. q" The Yosemite was
headed for the stranger. See
ing our intention, the steamer was in
stantly headed for the shore and
beached on the reef, six miles to the
westward of MORO Castle. The
Yosemite remained in the vicinity Of
this position for some time, during
which shell and shrapnel were dis.
charged at the Spaniard. When 1t was
deemed that the steamer was suffici.
emily disabled the Yosemite steamed
for a Spanish cruiser and gunboat
which had come to the relief of the
beached steamer During this period,
was much surprised to find that the
guns of MORO and the water battery
below 1t had the exact range of the
Yosemite's position and were effective
at that distance. -" Many pro.
jectiles of large calibre passed over
the Yosemite and although the
enemy made excellent line shots, some
very near to the ship, she was not
struck once. = - . Our fire seemed to
be very effective and made the Span.
ish cruiser join her consort, the gun.
boat, in seeking. shelter under the
guns of MORO. ~ The spirit and
behavior of the officers and crew was
in every way highly commendable."
With Commander Newberry and
many others Of the old crew of the
Yosemite" again serving their coun.
try, there will be no official celebra.
ton of the anniversary this year. How.
ever, all of the survivors of the battle
of twenty years ago and their families
will live the stirring day over again
in memory.

FORD ID HURRY FACTORY OUTPUT
 OF SPEED BOATS

DETROIT.-Quality production is to be the watchword of the great Ford Shipbuilding yard which is be- ing erected here for the construction of the United States navy Eagles" the little vessels which, it is hoped, will help rid the seas of German U-boats.
 The assembling plan has been greatly elaborated and will be ap- piled to the building of the Eagles The raw material will enter one end of the plant and emerge at the other end completed fighting craft. Each of the little vessels will be passed along by powerful machinery from one group of workmen to another, and as it passes, each group will add something to the boat.
 When the last rivet has been driv- en in the steel hull, the boat will be picked up bodily by a powerful hydraulic life and deposited further down the ways where skilled work men will install the motor equipment.
 Three ways have been constructed each to hold seven of the submarine chasers. It is generally understood that the plant will be able to put into the water one completed Eagle" a day and some estimates have placed the number as high as three for each twenty-four hours.
 There will be no champagne christenings nor elaborate launching ceremonies. No efforts are being made to give the boats any touch of artificial beauty, the sole effort l being to turn out with as great speed as possible an efficien5 weapon against German ruthlessness on the seas. Government secrecy shrouds the major details of construction.
 "If these boats will hasten the end kof the frightful carnage and bring q lasting peace, there vii. be no occasion to worry over the cost, ,'' said Henry Ford, in discussing the project. "This is your war ard my var, and although we did not make it, we must see it through to a sue cessful conclusion.
 Sixty days ago the land on which the plant is being erected was a desolate marsh, a vast acreage of mud through which wandered aim, lessly a sluggish river. Now it is a network of railroad tracks with locomotives running between great buildings of steel, tile and glass.
 What engineers here say is one of the largest buildings in the world will be used to house at rne time a score of the little vessels. It is 1,7OO feet long, 300 feet wide. rhe building where the boats are to be assembled is fully half mile from the Rouge river.
