WAMIISOTOX , May 1. [ Corrospomlcncn of
FIIB llni.I : MnldnK tlio big ( 'lins for tno
hnvy nml ctUlppinr | ; tlio now cruisers mill
men of-wnr which are being launched now
nro iinpreaslvo spcrtnclcs.
A morolniproisivo spcctnclo could not eailly
be founil than to behold n ponderous inn-
clilno , weighing forty or fifty tons , clasp In
Its embraro a niani of stool , \vumhlng forty-
five ton1) , twirl Itiibout iisKontly as a feather ,
and trim it to wltiiln ono-hundrcd thousandth
of an Inch of tlio required thickness.
Kvon inoro Impressive It is to huholl n
giant crnno handle as a baby would u play
thing a tremendous gun that could shatter
the armored sides of the Dnlllo twirling It In
iho air and posing It m position as if it
wcro as nlry and fragile ns a soap bubblo.
Very stt mi gt- , also , Ills to twirl In your hand
In a mpo allug u conical projot'tllo loaded
with explosive ; enough to smash the tall
lower , the Washington monument , into
itnlthcrccns.
Those are but a few examples of the as
tounding things that any visitor to tlio Wash
ington navy yard may see for himself nowa-
flays. If a sojourncr in any of the countries
of Kuropo wore to approach a gun factory
without an oillcial permit and a properly ac-
ereditod escort ho would bo met at the very
tnrc.shold by u bayonet with : i man behind it
trained to kill. In our capital any one who
chooses can walk unchallenged past the sen
try at the entrance to the Washington navy
vard , and can ramble at will through an es
tablishment which within the lint two yours
has grown to bo ono of the largest anil best
equipped of Its kind in the world. Ho may
note every process , ho may udinlro and lif-
qulro Into the perfection of every detail , ho
may narrowly Ncrutini/o everything , from
the roughest casting to tlio huge rilled
weapon of destruction ready to bo mounted
In tlio sponson uf ono of our now cruisers.
The only restriction ho will encounter are
two palntod signs which recur with great
frequency and uhleh warn him : "No 1'uil-
ill era Admitted" mid "Uo Not Tall : to the
Workmen. "
If the Inquiring visitor bo neither n peddler
nor given In asking Impertinent questions lie
may wander at will through the plant de
voted to the manufacture of implements of
destruction.
The talk , absurd as It really was , of the
possibility that Italy might send some of her
Ironclad lleots Irom tlio Mediterranean to
New York or Now Orleans had about It a
ring of .suggostlvi'iiess that caused common I
upon the naval possildlitlc.-i of the situation
nil over tlio world. It was shown that wo
have but one Ironclad , the Miantonomoh , at
oil lit to cope with any of Italy's
floating batteries , against whoso tonnage and
nrmamcntoiir new cruisers would bo butogg-
Miolls. It was shown , however , that wo could
bring to bear against an invading fleet ordnance -
nanco whoso qiiHllty and quantity has been
unsuspected by the general public. An English -
glish naval export who recently visited tills
country , was quoted in a London dispatch as
Btatlng that while our navy might still bo
light , our ordnance had already grown to
formidable proportions , and that any invader
might well dread to encounter its missiles.
An illustration of how the facilities for gun
manufacture at Washington have groun may
be found in the fact that two years ugo it
would have required six months from the
time the castings were fiiralshcd to complete
u 11-Inch breech-loading rillo. The sumo gun
could now bo completed in IHty day. Throe
months would now bo required to nmko an
8-inch gun , live months to llnlslt n lU-lnch ,
while the manufacture of a 1Mnch ! monster
would probably require seven months. No
llMni'h gun has ynt ever been completed.
Ono Is now at , the factory nearly finished , and
two others are under wav. The following
tnblo shows in compact fc rm the work now
under way in the yard hero :
The story of a great gun Is for these rea
sons of interest to the whole country. After
n tube for a gun has been forged it must bo
Inspected and tested bofoio it Is received at
the gun factory. From each forging several
pieces are cut to which heads are screwed to
lit the holders of the testing machine. These
test pieces are stR'tched until they are
broken , and their physical condition * care
fully noted. For example the steel for a tube
must have u tensile .strength of from seventy
thousand to eighty thouinml pounds ; lor a
jacket from sovcntv thousand to eighty thou
sand pounds , and for a hoop from ninety
thousand to ahundied thnusnml pounds. The
meaning of the.se terms will appear later on.
Such lias been ( lit ) development in the mak-
Inir of steoi caused by tlieso requirements
that the American steel now oxccods in qual
ity the best article of Hritish manufactuio
Which wo formerly used In mr.klnir American
puns. When broken this Hritish steel
betnns line needle points through
out its texture ) , a symptom of
disintegration. Tim American steel Is
ko though In fibre that vunetlmos a hit ho in
turning the tube for a gun will cut a thread
of steel p. thousandth part of an inch la thick
ness and ' 'Uu feel long \\ltliout u break.

on a platform stai-ds a blue shifted mechanic
who b > the touch uf tils hand can .send one of
these cranes traveling from ono end of the
shop to another and at the numo time send
the hoistiiig apparatus traveling along thn
crane transversely across the shon , while the
huge block Is being raised or lo\\med.
Lot us accompany one of these lubes from
I'm moment of Its arrival in the simp. It is
first touched by the fringes of one of the
cinnt cranes and Sifted from the carton
lathe. There it must be bored and Its ex-
tenor pared off to exact , dimensions. This is
n work of the utmost nicety. Over In
OIIP coiner of the room Is a machine to adjust
gauges. This machine can adjust the gauge
one oiui huiidrod-thousanth of an Inch. The
tube , which Is the basis of the whole gun ,
must bo bored so that It will be exactly fitted
by the projectile , and its exterior must bo of
just such a diameter that the jacket wlili-h ts
to enclrclo It , will not slip over It.
The Jlrst step In building up thojpj.t Is put
ting on the jaclict. The Jacket has been as
accurately machined as wai the lube and is
now carried by this same giant crane
to the shrinking pit. Hero It I' . Minvlv fi-ited
by furnaces adapted to Its sl/n until It Is ex-
landed bv Iho hoat. wlthou' , hv < nor , allow
ing It to become red. The oiact temperature
Is that dogrco of heat which will melt to'der '
but not lend. Meanwhile the tuVio tins been
iilncod In the pit , breech end up , ai.d tuo
Jnolsot whim hontoil Is raised bv tno crino
mid slipped over tlio In ho. The Rront. sl
nlcetv of mljustmoiit U hero required , for
houfti the J.icKotcatch miywhoro on tuo tube
eave Just exactly wuorolt belongs , It mlgu
mlck fast nnil would Imvo to bo turned away
ami thus lost. As soon ns the Jacket has been
placed on the tube a gentle spray of
eV U .lowlv turned on j t thii DO nt
xvboro It touches the brooch of the tubo.
lbl > aonu tot tbo purpsso of sUrlnklug the
Jacket firmly on the gun fit the point llrst , for
were the water turned on thoontiro Jnukot nt
once It Is qulto ns likely that the jacket
would shrink away from the tube or shrink
unevenly ns that it would shrink toward the
breech , which Is Indlsi onsiblo. When it has
boon properly shrunk nt the breech nnd
gradually cooled until It has entirely shrunken
on nt the tube and lint become to
all Intents nnd purposes n portion of
the tube Itself , which It encircles
with n grin , literally "of steel. " At this
stage of its ininufncture the original tube of
the gun projects far beyond Its thick Jacket
which now surrounds It near the brio.'h.
Successive bands of steel shorter and thinner
than the first Jacket nro each accurately
bored and trimmed nnd slipped over the tube
toward the muzzle. These smaller bands are
technically called hoops. Over them again
other hoops are slipped in such n way that
each hoop covers the Joint between these
within it thus locking the whole structure
together by successive bands of shrunken
steel , the aggregate compression exerted by
these bands upon the Inner tube Is of course
enormous. It needs to bo enormous , for
when In action the circular chamber sur
rounded by nil this metal will be subjected to
n pressutoof mnny thousand pounds to the
scjunrj inch.
After all this is done much yet remains to
complete the u capon. The tube with Its en
velopes 1ms now become n ponderous mass ,
yet the lathe holds it ns firmly and twirls It
ns gracefully as when It was but n single
core of steel. The most accurate part of the
work is still to bo done what Is technically
known as the compressing chamber , which
Is that part of the breech which contains the
projectile and the explosive charge , must bo
polished and rounded with the utmost nicety.
This is especially true of the inch or two of
this chamber Just forward of the breech
mechanism. An error here of the thick
ness of a hair might result in the escape of
gas , the bursting of n gun , the loss of llfo
and the possible destruction of the ulilp. The
workmen who llnish this part of the interior
are skilled and trusted. In another part of
the sbop the mechanism u ed to close and
lock the breech is being made. Its material is
the finest and hardest steel. Its parts nro
too complicated for anything but n technical
description. Their enormous weight and
great si/so do not prevent their having all the
exactness In overv part that characterises
the \\hccls of the finest watch. Thodiflerent
parts of the breech mechanism are all fitted
upon standard guns so that they May bo sent
when ordered to a cruiser in an v part of the
world , with the absolute cortatntv that they
will lit.
While this Is being done , the great gun
itbclf is receiving its finishing touches. Of
these the most delicate and important is
the rifling. This means the cutting of
spiral grooves along the bore of the gun ,
so as to give tlio projectile that whirl-
lug motion which insures accuracy of flight
and n flat trajectory. The machine which
docs the worit Is a marvel of ingenuity nnd a
miracle of mathematical accuracy. It must
bo remembered that these grooves must bo
cut on the Interior of the length of tlio Dore ,
that their spiral twists as first graduated as
ono turn in 1MI calibres , must gradually in
crease as it approaches the nui//lo to ono
turn in twenty-llvo calibres ; nnd that the
grooves must bo absolutely parallel whllo in-
lliuteslnmlly decreasing In width as they ap
preach the muzzle. These problems , which
to the layman may well seem impossible ,
have all been overcome by that marvellous
instrument knpwn as the rifting machine.
Four grooves are cut at n time. The long
rod , on which are the cutting tools ,
is held stationary while the huge
gau slowly turns ns the rifting is
done. The slightest error In this delicate op
eration would entirelv ruin the implement
upon which so much tlmo nnd labor have al
ready boon expended. To obtain some idea
of the money alone which is at risk during
this delicate operation , It may bo stated that
the total cost of one of these monsters of de
struction is estimated at " > cents a pound
for Instance , a l'Mnch gun weighs fortv-sevcn
tons , or SU.OOO pounds , which amounts to
nearly $ T. > ,0 ) .
iMimiir , mo crane transicrs ino nearly
completed gun to another lathe , where Its ox-
tciinr Is polished , the angles of Its hoop and
Jacket rounded , its trunnions screwed on , or
in case of the heavier guns , grooves cut for
the Middle straps. Finally its bights lire ad
justed.
As n lust step the gun Is shipped to the
proving grounds at Indian Head , about
twelve miles down the Potomac. Uoforo it Is
iinallv accepted , the gun must .successfully
stand live rounds with service charges with
out showing the slightest expansion or de
terioration. Not until then is the steel of
which tlio gun is composed paid for by the
government. The name of the navy yard ,
the number of the gun , and the date of its
llnal construction are then engraved upon it ,
and with its carriage It is sent to the cruiser
or battle ship for which it is intended. The
live or six inch runs nro most of them in
tended for the lighter gun boats , the eight
or ton inch guns are for the main batteries of
the cruisers whllo the twelve anJ thirteen
Inch guns , nnd also the sixteen inch
monster for which plans nro being drawn are
intended for the battle ships now being built
nt Norfolk and Hrooklvu.
The carriages for these guns , \\ith all their
mechanism for turning , elevating and de
pressing and governing the recoil , are made
in ovorv part In tbo Washington navy yard.
The conical projectiles are also turned Hero
nnd fitted with copper bands , which , project
ing slightly boyqnd the surface of the pro
jectile , take the rilling mid give the pro
jectile its totary motion. In still another
part of the yard the hollow projectiles aio
filled with their explosive charges. When
loaded , painted and packed for shipment the
last stop in preparations to repel an invader
has bean taken. Pr.iun S. HCAIII.

SHIRTS RETAILED WHILE WAIT YOU A
It is -well known fact that wo never mark goods up. When wo
advertise anything at a price , that's the price so long as the goods last. 1
We don't sell anything cheap for a day or two , or three , and then rt i i o rt
on the price after that. That mtiy be all right from one point of view ,
but not from ours. We sometimes advertise an article for say three
days , ; -we do this as we think that that time will see them all gone.
Should any remain on the fourth day you're welcome to them at the
same price , but that seldom occurs. About a month ago we put in stock
a large quantity of unlaundried
WHITE SHIRTS
They are not worth fifty cents , but ai'e worth thirty-five to forty. Wo
find that-when a man will pay that price he'll invariably go a little
more and buy a fifty center. When any article in our stock don't sell
as it should , we've got a happy way of making it. We mark 'er down ,
way down at once. These shirts ha ven't sold well. To-day we put the
whole lot , about a hundred dozen , all in one pile , and you can take your
pick for three clays
rt
Atthe same time we will offer a hundred dozen splendid unlaundered
shirts , made of New York Mills muslin , linen bands and bosom , rein
forced front and back , -worth. 78c , at

We will also offer in our shirt department , over two hundred dozen ,
handsome fancy Shirts , in all the new cloths , in Madras , Zephyrs ,
