011 Iteiir Admiral Itohert 8.
Orlflln, chief of the liurenii of stenm engineering,
nccordltiK to n writer In the New York Sun.
These. eiiKlnes, which will lie of the electrlc-drlve
type, tiru expected to push the JKK)-foot Rhlps
through rmiKli sens nt n speed iippronchlnj: ,15
knots; t tut t Is, about four knots better tluiii the
latest United Stntes destroyers mid tit the rate
of a passenger train running on 11 carefully
graded road.
When Admiral (irlfllti tells the story one gains
from his manner the Impression that nhout all
ho hud to do was to speak to Captain Dyson
nhout It mid the design of these ?ll,(MM 1.0(H) en
gines sprang into existence, hut those who know
the admiral have their own opinion nhout that;
and It differs somewhat radically from the Im
pression. "Yes." said the chief, "at first It was rnthcr
iippalllng when we realized the magnitude of Hum
engine. The largest In nny of our battleships
Klve sn.OOO horse power; those of the l.usltanla
were 7().(XM; and It Is said that those which drive
tin Kngtlsh Tiger at nhout III) knots are from SO,-
000 to V-UtHM). So one can see that we had to
'make u leap, and at first It seemed like 11 leap In
the dark, to provide approximately 200,000 horse.
power. Ittit somehow, when we got the conditions
right before us, everything seemed to unfold
Itself and fall Into the right place and there reallv
wits llttlo difficulty.
"Wo saw at the outset that It was Impossible
to control and apply the power without adopting
oil fuel and the electric drive. In the great
mercantile ships like the Aipiltmtla mid tho
Vaterlnnd we had examples of the 000-foot
boats with a speed of 2.1 or 20 knots, but It Is
the last few knots which nre so dllllcult to get.
Very roughly speaking, the new cruisers steam
ing nt 15 knots will consume the equivalent of
loO tons of coal a day, and to attain somewhere
between JM ami !W knots will hum tip the same
Quuutlty In one hour; to put It another way. the
coal required to drive one of these cruisers at
full speed for a day will drive 11 battleship across
tlio Atlantic and back. If full speed can he innh
tnliuHl steadily for three days ami seven hours
It will take one from New York to Liverpool; but
as that would require 12,000 tons of coal It Is
certain that such a run will never be attempted
on coal fuel.
"No one can tell what the chemist-engineer of
the future will do; hut until something Is found
battle cruisers will have to depend upon oil to
convert water Into steam; and without that sub
stitute they cannot be driven many consecutive
hours nt full speed. It would not he possible to
transmit so much power on one shnft or one.
screw. Therefore it Is distributed to four shafts,
each receiving nhout r0,000 horse power, or dou
ble the total power In a superdreadnnught and
greater than that of nny but tho largest of tho
modern, merchantmen.
"If only n low or moderate rate of speed wero
required tho old-stylo reciprocating engines
would, because moro economical, probably be se
lected, but to secure tho high rates turbines will
bo adopted.
"Tho electric drlvo Is not difficult to compre
hend If one will think of tho familiar trolley, sub
way or railway car driven by electricity. Tho
power Is created by tho operation of steam-driven
generators or dynamos. They produce the elec
tric current, which Is carried by wire to the many
small motors In the cars scattered along the sys
tem. Tho motorman or engineer turns on the
power and thu motor Is driven ahead; he moves
his luvcr and tho power Is shut off; he shoves It

Finding of Rich Deposits of Tungsten
Has Aroused Great Excite
ment. Mining for tungsten or wolfram has
brought prosperity to llollvla. Accord
ing to Ml Dlarlo of La l'az, the boom
ut tho mining center of Oururo can
scarcely bo exaggerated.
Dally the miners and workmen
Hocked Into tho town from the outly
ing districts, carrying the fruit of their
labors. Tho camps wero full of nerv
ous energy.
Individuals pass through tho streets
of Oururo with faces burned by the
wind and sun. They are tho miners
who have come to offer the exporting
houses lots of wolfram, varying be
tween 100 and l.(HH) pounds. Tho
amount of this sale, $200 to $2,000, Is
considerable in view of the modest con
dition of tho miners, of whom the ma
jority lire Indians. Tho proceeds of
tho sale are deposited In the banks at
sight, and the miner, happy mid con
tented with the certltlcato of his capi
tal, returns to tho Cordillera to bring
down now treasures.
In nearly all the mineral districts of
tho department of Oururo there are
rich deposits of wolfram. .Motor cars
huvc been rapidly springing Into popu
larity for use In visiting tho mining re
gions, and many cars have recently been
ordered from tho United States.
Tungsten mid tin ores are found nt
nltltudes between 111,000 and 10,500
foot above sea level. Men, mules and
llamas can cllmp up and down, but tho
slopes are too steep for working and
handling of ore. Aerial ropeways are
used to bring the ore down to a place
where water for concentration Is available.
By-product Coke Oven.
Tho Iron Industry of this country
has been adopting the by-product cok
ing process at a marvelous nito. There
arj practically 110 by-product coke
plants In the United States, which do
not recover ammonia, tar mid light oil
(crude benzol).
In the vast majority of the plants
also surplus gas Is recovered and util
ized either at the plant Itself or by
distribution to outside consumers.
There lire possibly two or throo very
small by-product coke plants at which
tar and ammonia aro not recovered for
disposal to the outside markets, but
these would certainly represent con
siderably less than 1 per mit of the
total by-product coking capacity of
the country that Is not now equipped
with benzol recovery plants, und the
by-product coking plants now under
construction have either contracted for
benzol recovery equipment or Indicated
a strong probability thnt such provi
sion will bo' made. Metallurgical and

Simply Beyond Them.
"The subjects of royalty are queer.
"I low so?"
"They don't seem able to take It In
when a king acts like un ordinary hu
mnn being."
"This Is tho simple scheme of propulsion
adopted for these new cruisers. It Is known to bo
elTectlve, but It Is not as simple in the uppllca
Hon as In tho telling. To tho troubles of tho
steam engine are now added the dangers of the
electric current, and the engineer must have mas
tered electricity us well as steam. If the steam
from 200,000-hnrso-pnwcr hollers could rend tho
ship, tho current It would generate, misapplied,
would work untold barm to ship and crew.
"One of the disadvantages of 11 single engine
or a single turbine Is that It must bo In one large
compartment, and If this Is broached from tho
outside the How of water tills the entire space,
puts all tho machinery within It out of commission
and places the ship In great danger. With the
electric drive every motor, generator and turbine
can bo Isolated, thus adding to tho safety of tho
vessel. The electric drive Is not nn experiment.
It has been operated on the naval collier Jupiter
mid on Its trial trips the perfect success of tills
way of gearing down tho power was proved be
yond a reasonable doubt. This system Is also be
ing Installed In the latest battleships, tho New
Mexico, Tennessee and California.
"There are several reasons why tho cruisers
must he so much longer than the dreadtiaughts
approximately half as long again. The most Im
portant of these Is to Insure the fineness of lino
forward and the long smooth run Indispensable to
speed, with sufficient buoyancy to sustain the un
avoidably great weights of hull, equipment and
engines. Another reason Is to provide space
enough for the number of hollers which will suj
ply steam to the turbines. The Oklahoma re
quires 1-1 water tube hollers to furnish her steam;
and on that basis tho new ships will require 84,
although It probably will not work out In Just
that way. Theso boilers will contain many miles
of tubing.
"A speclnl problem for the engineer after the
design of her hull has been flx-ed, Is to determlno
the size of each of the propellers, their position
and the pitch of the blades. A factor In solving
this Is tho number of revolutions which the en
gines will give und the number which will give
the best results. Although we have built no ships
of this size and design and have no relative data
to guldo us, tho solution presents no great diffi
culty, as Captain Dyson Is a recognized expert
In this lino and will take care of this situation.
"The bureau of steam engineering will have to
lny miles of wiring for electric ll;lits mid slgr.als
In n very limited space, at leant as many as n
town of 15.000 Inhabitants would need. For this
purpose we will supply sepaao generators; but
by way of precaution provision will he made for
coupling the lighting system with tho generators
which drive the propellers.
"It Is needless to say that In working out tho
designs there will be constant co-operation be
tween this bureau, the naval constructors, iho
ordnance department, the builders of tho ships
,'unst know tho shape of the hull bofo e they cm
design the engines, but the cons true tors n st

before they can give tho last word In the designs
"It seems hard that such enormous sums must
bo outlayed for ships which In 20 years will be
bcrap without rendering any very good service
unless the nntlon should become Involved In war;
It Is also unfortunate that a police force of any
sort Is necessary and that lire Insurance pre
miums must lie mild. The only compelling cause
for tho construction of these ships Is that they
uro a tvpe which other nations possess, und with
out which tho United Stutes will be at a grave
disadvantage If opposed to u nation possessing
them.
"As commerce destroyers It is plain that their
speed mid power will enable them to overtake
and destroy anything alloat except battleships.
The raids made by the German cruisers upon the
English coasts show how easily they can blip past
a battleship licet; and tho Kmden bus proved
what a swift cruiser can do against an enemy's
commerce until a swifter and more powerful
cruiser puts 1111 end to Its career. If It were not
tor the ..uglish cruisers, which would seek and
cut them down one by one, the German battle
cruisers, In spite of all the battleships of tho Eng
lish navy, would go to sea and muke all kinds of
trouble for tho ships bearing to tho allies muni
tions, food supplies and money paid for the manu
factured articles which tho allies In their ships
nre sending to tho murkets of the world because
they have sea control.
"The battle oil' Jutland most certainly has not
established anything not already known against
the cruiser. No one over had the slightest reason
to suppose that one could engage a battleship at
any range on equal terms. Tho naval engineers
put nil the expensive mid powerful machinery In
them; the designers of the hull gave them tho
tine lines to keep them at a long rango from tho
backbone of the fleet; mid when that speed was
used to take them close to the battleships tho In
evitable happened.
"As a scouting force to locate tho enemy these
swift powerful ships break through a screen and
accomplish what they wero Intended to do; and
there Is 110 doubt that as the swift wing of a tlect
they will bo Invaluable In pursuit of an enemy
mid In certain other tleet maneuvers. That they
cannot be successfully opposed to battleships no
more proves that they aro unlit for their strategic
functions than the Inability of English battleships
to overtnku the German cruiser tleet proves that
they are unable to give anil receive blows.
"So, because battle cruisers have their own Im
portant functions, both In mid out of the fleet,
tho United States navy must have them, and the
more of them and the sooner the better; for the
navy !s the one means of defenso against a mili
tary nation."

FIND VOLCANO IN MINDANAO
Recent Eruption Was Apparent, Lieu
tenant Donnelry Says of the
Discovery.
Mlndnnan has a new volcano, accord
ing to the Mindanao Herald. Lieuten
ant Donnelly, while on a hike Into the
Interior of Lanao province, discovered
mi active volcano In the liagayungan
range of mountains, which heretofore
was not known to exist. Lieutenant
Donnelly says of his discovery In the
following report:
"Juno 5, 1010, the undersigned, In
command of a combined detachment
of the First Cotabato company, and
the First General Service company, on
reconnaissance patrol from Kapuad
northwest through the I'lagayuuan
mountain range, came In sight of an
actlvo volcano which from nil Indica
tions had recently erupted a discharge
of volcanic ush and either smoke or
thimo.
"From tho fact that foliage In the
forest on tho mountain sides three
miles to the southeast had been
scorched as though by flame, hot
smoke or toxic gas, nnd that ground
vegetation of scrub grass and weeds
bad been partially destroyed, leaving
the stalks Intact and the scorched
leaves retaining their form, It was
thought thnt the eruption had been
recent. At all events, so recent that
tho wind hnd not blown away nor de
stroyed tho fragile remnants of tho
burned foliage."
