An unusual Instance of mountain railway

being carried on with remarkable rapidity ,
is the line from Scheldegg , Switzerland ,
round the great glacier of the Elger , past

nearly of the Jungfrau , the height of the sta
tion near the summit being 13,668 feet above
the level of the sea , and this Is justly con
sidered one of the most notable of mod
ern engineering achievements. During the
la t stason travel ha * been practicable from
Interlaken to Scheldegg by rack railways
already in operation , one of these leaving
( be adhesion road at Zurel Lutschlnen , the
other at Lauterbrunnen. The new railway
will , when completed , take passengers 7,000
foci above Bcheldegg. The locomotives are
to have cogwheels fitted Into a rack , the
openings In which correspond to the teeth
of the wheels , the rack being placed be
tween two steel rails of the ordinary ad
hesion pattern. The motive power is to be
supplied by electricity , while the tunnels
and galleries will bo lighted throughout by
incandescent electric lamps. It Is expected
that the line will be In operation to the
top of the Jungfrau in three or four years.

NEW YOIIK , Aug. 23. "You can almost
read the lesson learned by the Brooklyn
during this war In the stars , " said Admiral
Schley with twinkling eyes. He waved one
hand suggestively toward the American
ensign flaunting from the taffrall staff of the
famous armored cruiser as he spoke. "As
for the share of the crew and this ship In
the victory of the Santiago fight , only one
thing can be said they did their duty as
Americans and American ships always nave
and always will. In all my experience I
have never before witnessed , such fatally
accurate and deadly shooting as was done
by our fleet as It closed In on Cervera's
squadron during the battle of July 3. Out
all this Is an old story. That we happened
to be In the thick of the fight was a piece
of good luck for which we are all thankful.
The speed of the Brooklyn bad something
to do with It , of course. And you can give
the praise for that to those who designed
It , and the faithful crew below In the engine
and flre rooms. They worked as never men
worked before. You wish me to give your
readers an Idea of the cfllclency of the
armored cruiser class of war ships as proved
by the Brooklyn's experience ? "
The rear admiral smiled and glanced to
ward a number of navy yard officials just
boarding the ship , adding In his character
istic , genial manner : "I am afraid I must
veueli of the Ilrooklyn typo find ample
protection In the protective deck , which Is
three Inches on the flat and six Inches on
the ilopo , In the three-Inch belt and In the
eight Inches guarding the barbette turrets.
It la evident that the constructors were
happy In their selection of the armor. The
Injury reported to have been sustained dur
ing the Santiago flght , when one of the
compartments was flooded below the wattr
line , wai due to a water valve being opened
through .some unknown cause.
"In regard to the question of armament
It has been claimed In some quarters that
a battery consisting entirely of 6-Inch
rapld-flre guns would be more efficient than
the Brooklyn's present battery , which In
cludes eight 8-Inch and twelve 5-Inch rapid-
fir crs , nnd a secondary battery of twelve
6-pounders , tour 1-pounders , four Colts and
two field guns. The question Is susceptible
to argument of course , but I think the
8-Inch guns of the Brooklyn did their share
In the Santiago flght. We flred 100 rounds
of 8-lnch shells. Those , combined with the
8-lnch projectiles flred by the Iowa , Oregon
nlng the secondary battery mutt not 1 *
forgotten. They handled Ih'e light guns
coolly nd iikllltully , notwithstanding their
exposed position , and the question as to
the advisability of utlllilng the marine
guard In tuch work should bo considered
settled. "
tfttlr liliN | nnd Crnlurr * .
The lieutenant was asked how , In his
opinion , nrraorcd cruisers compared with
battleships as proved by his experience on
board the Brooklyn. From the manner of
hla reply It Is evident he Is an enthusi
astic advocate of the Brooklyn class.
"Both battleships and tail armored
cruisers arc necessary In every fighting
fleet , " he Bald , "but , I think , from the
greater range of the latter and their higher
speed , they are really of more value than
the battleships. The moral effect on an
enemy naturally exerted by craft like the
Indiana or Iowa must bo admitted , but for
quick , sharp work , great speed and cruis
ing range and effective action the armored
cruisers cannot be beaten. tVhat better
fighting machines can be found In any
refer you to Mr. Hodgson , the navigator.
He will doubtless give you the information
you desire. "
Lieutenant Hodgson Is the cruiser's
navigating officer. Admiral Schley said of
him in his report of the Santiago battle :
"The navigator , Lieutenant A. C. Hodgson ,
was most steady and conspicuous in every
detail of duty , contributing to the accurate
firing of this ship ( Brooklyn ) in her part of
the great victory. " He seemed to think
that his testimony could not be of much
interest , but he finally consented to talk
briefly.
"The lesson learned by the Brooklyn , " he
began , "Is the same aa that learned by every
ship In the fleet. We probably can give
|
better testimony from the fact that we were
struck by the enemy's projectiles a greater' '
number of times than any other vessel , but i
really the only additional knowledge
acquired is that Spanish shells of the
caliber flred by Cervera's ships are useless
against the three to eight-inch armor carried
by the Brooklyn. The marks and scars show
that we were reached about twenty-five
times , but. as you see , we are still afloat.

and Indiana , worked terrible havoc on the I
Marie Teresa , the Almtrante Oquendo , the ;
Vlzcaya and the Colon. One of these shells
struck the latter ship , landed In the ward
room and exploded , wrecking the compart
ment and ktlllne a number of the enemy.
The Marie Teresa was struck by an 8-Inch
shell from our ship , which entered the
side just forward of the port beam. The
projectile burst and disabled the four crews
of the guns on that deck. The 8-Inch
breech loader Is a formidable weapon and It
is certainly not out of place on an armored
cruiser.
"The official reports made by the ships
of Admiral Sampson's fleet prove that tha
main results of the battle off Santiago
| were achieved by the 8-lnch and lower
. calibers , and the rapld-flre pieces. Too
| much praise cannot be given to the men
at the latter guns for their extraordinary
skill and ability. The perfect ball of pro
jectiles showered upon the fleeing ships bj
the 5-Inch rapid-Brers was almost beyond
belief. Captain Eulate's testimony that 'the
Brooklyn's fire on our broadside was fright
ful and the men could not stay at their
guns' proves how the crews worked the
pieces. Although twelve of these terribly
destructive guns are carried , only six could
b used during the running flght , as only
that number would bear on the broadside ,
but the sis guns did their vsork nobly. The
Vlzcaya was hit six times by the Brooklyn's
E-lncb breech loaders , the Infanta Marie
five , the Cristobal Colon four and the
Oquendo five. One of the shells exploded a
torpedo on the latter vessel with terrible
effect This shows a total of twenty hits ,
which , when the fact that the target was
moving rapidly Is taken Into consideration ,
Is really remarkable. No , taking It all In
all , I do not believe the battery of the
Brooklyn can be improved. Results
naturally speak for themselves and the
results obtained by the ship in the recent
war are eloquent.
"The efficient work of the marines man-
navy than the New York or the Brooklyn ?
They have a speed of twenty knots or
more , splendid batteries , ample armor , a
coal supply of 1,461 tons and a radius of
action of 6,088 knots at a ten-knot speed.
With the new colonial policy of the United
States , to which they are not yet com
mitted of Qourae , but which is surely
bound to follow , such vessels as the New
York and Brooklyn will be of the greatest
value. Future naval building programs will
certainly include that type of ship. "
Men Cool as Though * t Practice.
In reply to a question as to the con
duct of the Brooklyn's crew during tbo
Santiago action , Lieutenant Hodgson spoke
In warm praise. The coolness and daring ,
the utter sangfroid shown by all on board
from the oldest man down to the youngest
apprentice , was something absolutely mar
vellous.
"If It had not been for the series of thuds
proclaiming the landing of the Spanish shells
against our sides , and the terrible rending
and crashing sounds as the enemy's ships
blew up , one would nave thought the whole
affair simply a drill at general quarters.
One of the lessons learned by the Brooklyn
( but it Is really superfluous ) , Is the won
derful capabilities of the American man-of-
war's man as a fighter. It bos not re
quired years of actual practice to place the
Yankee bluejacket at the top of the heap.
We have men aboard here who , If dressed
as citizens , would give a Quaker odds In
meekness of appearance , but when that fleet
slipped out past Morro castle and made for
the west they fought like demons. If you
should ask one of the boys what he thought
of the fight , he'd probably grin and shrug
bis shoulders. It was merely a 'scrap. ' "
The question of the torpedoes did not In
terest the lieutenant. They apparently
played such a small part In the late war
that It would be useless to discuss their
value. The experience of the Oquendo ,
however , will probably result In baal&hlof
torpcdoe * from decks above the
wnlr line whenever It Is practicable ,
Tnll MnoUriMnrku Alilril Sltnctl.
The one peculiarity In the conilructlon of
the Ilrooklyn moot prominent to the casual
observer Is her lofty ( sml UKly ) smoke fun
nels. She carrlw three which tower abe
the decks almost DM high ns the slgnnl
tnafls. These stacks \\ert ? advocated by
Chief Engineer Melville , nnd the testimony
of the cnsln rlng force of the cruiser Is
In their favor. The lofty funnels really
glvo the result which li usually obtnlneA
by the use of forced drnuRht a device
whlih experience has proved liable to lead
to the ruin of the boilers. The forced
draught system causes revere expansion
and contraction strains , and usually stnrt
I leakage at the tube ends. This Is not
present In natural draught , and the
i Brooklyn's experience has shown that ns
gcod results can Ixs obtained by lengthen-
I Ing the smokestacks ns by the employment
of the torceU drauf-ht system.
The lesson learned by the Brooklyn In
the Spanish-American war can becm -
bodied In these recommendations , which
will be made by the proper boards :
1. That S-lnch guns and rnpld-flrers ot
all calibers should bo given the greatest
prominence.
2. That nit wood work so far ns possible
should be abolished In war ( hlpe.
3. That the pipes of flre mains should bo
laid below the- protective deck.
4. That light armor and great speed are
requisite to an efficient cruising vessel.
