BATTLESHIP TESTS
i
Economy of Coal Consumption
One of Vital Concerns of
the Navy.
FRIENDLY COMPETITION
AS TO SHOWING MADE
I Commander Thomas T. Craven Tells
of Besnlts Expected From Med
iterranean Voyage.
Naval experts arc showing much in
terest in the coming competition In en
gineering between the nine battleships
of the Atlantic fleet which started from
Hampton roads yesterday for a cruise to
the Mediterranean. Lieut. Commander
Thomas T. Craven, director of target
practice and engineering competitions at
the Navy Department, recently made an
interesting statement to newspaper men
as to the purpose and value of such
competitions.
"The coming European cruise of cer
tain battleships of the Atlantic fleet,"
said Commander Craven, ?'will furnish
an excellent opportunity for close com
petition in engineering under service
condition^ *md the performance of the
vessels will Le watched with the closest
attention.
"Whenever vessels cruise together in
company at sea. the amount of fuel con
sumed by each, from day to day. be
comes a matter of discussion and inter
est. A compar.son of performances at
such times is natural. Formerly, the
amount of fresh water available on
board was the item which generally gave
the greatest concern, but. since the ad
vent of steam, and the ability to distill
and replenish the supply of this neces
sity, the all-important factors for the
season arc now the amount of fuel on
hand and the amount that must be ex
pended in steaming miles per hour, and
for tiie maintenance of the personnel.
Daily Coal Signals.
"A signal is hoisted daily at noon on
board of naval vessels cruising together,
which gives the amount of fuel expend
ed for the previous twenty-four hours,"
and tfce amount remaining on hand.
This information is necessary for the
senior officer present, who is directing
the movements of the ships, and is of in
terest and value to almost every one
present .n the assemblage of vessels.
'The speed and ability to keep the
sea in company, by several ships, is de
pendent on the performance of the poor
est vessel. The necessity for encourag
ing and assisting the weak ones is an
economy, v.hich directly spells efficiency,
.n this matter, is ?self-ev.dent.
Because of the extent of our coast line
and of the distances which our vessels
may be ??xpeeted to cover in the event
of hostilities, mobility for ships of all
classes composing our fleets Is the lirst
requisite. Ours must be a. "steaming
navy."
In order to insure this mobility it is
necessary that our designs be efficient
and suitable, and that the operation of
the motive machinery be intelligently
conducted by a trained personnel. An
occasional long cruise furnishes the sur
est test of the efficiency of engineering
departments. That ot" lOOK-OD, when six
teen battleships were sent around the
world without a mishap or delay in the
prearranged program. wa*:a remarkable
demonstration 01' cruising efficiency.
Results of Gun Practice.
The scientific 'methods; in gunnery re
sulting from the competition inaugurated
some ten years ago were so astonishing,
and at the same time gratifying, that
discussion arose as to the possibility ot'
applying the principles of competition to
engineering on board ship.
While at the time engineering condi
tions were not generally deemed unsatis
factory. it was, nevertheless, recognized
that there was waste of coal and oil In
some cases. Leaking Joints, faulty ad
justments of machinery, etc., resulted in
loss of economy, and were otherwise ob
jectionable. While the regulations re
quired periodic tests and full power trials
of machinery. these were not always con
tiu< ted in a uniform way. were sometimes
perfunctory, and the results of these tests
wer?- not as carefully digested as was
deemed necessary- Tlx- necessity for
scientitic firing had not been clearly pre
sented- Widely different performances
were obtained by vessels of the same
class, carrying out similar duties. Noth
ing existed to directly stimulate and to
encourage a general watchfulness, a rer
gard for small details, and to promote ef
tlciency and economy of upkeep of the
engineering departments on !>oard ship.
The importance which the recently
established competitions had given to
gunnery reacted somewhat and the en
gineering. department seemed to be put
farther below decks and away from the
ken of men that had even been the
case before, and which, of course, was
exceedingly undesirable.
The knowledge of .motive power of the
ship is as essential on the part of all
officers today as it was formerly, when
sails and not engines constituted the
means for locomotion.
In Rio de Janeiro in January. 100# the
commander-in-chief of the United States
Atlantic fleet issued an order Inaugurat
ing the competition In engineering for the
battleships and destroyers composing the
fleet at that time making the voyage
to the Pacitic. The competition Included
the development of maximum speed un
der forced and natural draft, and econ
omy of coal and oil under those and
nnder ordinary cruising conditions
Breakdowns were penalized, and water
when received from an outside source
was charged against the ship receiving it.
Economy the Result.
i This competition ended upon the ar
| rival of the fleet at Magdalena bay.
Lower California. The "distance steamed
was S,2lo.3 knots, and it Was estimated
that a total net increase In economy
of 1.460 tons of coal was realixed," di
rectly due to improvements in methods.
Before leaving San Kranclsoo the com
petition was again established, which was
to continue from the departure from the
port until the arrival at Manila. In the
run from Honolulu to Auckland the sav
ing of < ??al was so remarkat le as to
cause the commander-in-chief to issue
a special order regarding it. It was
estimated that U,1ST? tons had been saved
on this run.
Taking the performances on the voyage
from Rio to Magdalena bay as a stand
ard, It was estimated that 2.423 tons
of coal were saved on the run from
San Francisco to Manila bay. On the
same basis it was also ascertained that
over 8,000 gallons of lubricating oil was
saved. Two vessels more than doubled
their cruising radii as far as oil was
concerned.
"Despite the unfavorable weather en
countered on the voyage across the At
lant.c when homeward bound, and the
long time whkh had elapsed since the
.ast docking of the ships, the saving in
lu >l compared with the trip from Hamp
ton roads to Rio on the outward voy
age amounted to over per cent. The
results obta ned on this cruiae sufficient
ly demonstrated the advantages of com
petitive methods, and in June, 1009, a
general order from the Navy Depart
ment established the engineering compe
titions as a permanent feature in the
operation of vessels.
"In accordance with this order vessel?
were separated Into different classes as
follows: Battleships torpedo and sub
mar.ne. The rules were laid down to in
sure fair competition, in so far as prac
ticable, taking into consideration the
widely different conditions of employ
ment. variations in the quality of fuel,
etc.
Standards Were Establisnea.
"It was forbidden to endeavor to save
fuel by restriclng the us? of power
neccssary for the proper training of the
personnel, the general licalth of thei
crew and the efficiency of the ship.
Standards for the various factors were
established from previous performances
and these have since been modified from
year to year in order to equalise com
petitive conditions. Winning vessels of
the different classes each year are
awarded the trophies, and these bronze
Plaques are carried by them for the suc
ceeding twelve months, as symbols of
their efficiency. Each petty officer and
man of fhe engineering department of a
ship wlnn'ng the trophy is allowed to
wear a red letter "E" on the sleeve of
liis uniform, and these emblems are
greatly esteemed by the individuals who
have striven hard for twelve months in
an "unremitting effort to produce econ
omy and efficiency in their department
The commanding and certain engineer
ing officers pf a winning vessel receive
commendatory letters from the Navy
Department, copies of which are filed
with their records, and finally a large
red block letter "E" is painted on the
smokestock of the trophy winner, as an
outward and visible sign to the eyes of
all men of the satisfactory condition ob
taining in the often but little understood
department of the ship.
"The visitor on board is always im
pressed by a casual glance which he
usually bestows in the direction of the
engine room, and occasionally visitors
have been known to descend into the bow
els of the ship, and to wonder at the
boilers, and the perspiring men heaving
coal into the furnaces from which the
power which drjves the vessel and pro
duces the energy for her upkeep origi
nate. While the mass of the machinery
is impressive, but few of the people mak
ing these cursory inspections have any
idea of the details to be mastered and
the work accomplished in maintaining the
power plant installed on a modern dread
nought.
Devotion to Duty.
"They have no conception of the devo
tion to duty which is necessary on the
part of each individual working in his
own sometimes obscure, uncomfortable
and frequently dangerous corner, with the
full knowledge that he must do his part
to the end, out of the sight of men, and
without the recognition which those who
work in daylight above his head rrfay re
ceive. The toll of death due to casualties
i in engine and fire rooms far exceeds that
; in turrets, and in magazines, yet there
I has been no shrinking, and no holding
' back. There is no class of men on board
a ship with a higher sense of duty, better
discipline or traditions, or who are mor*
I apl to acquit themselves with credit in
time of stress than the members of the
engineer's division. Their duties are of
equal, if not greater, importance than
those of their shipmates who light the
guns. It is as necessary for a ship when
called upon for battle to reach and to
maintain a station favorable for the fight
ing as it is for an accuracy and skill in
gunnery after this station has been
rcached. The men below cannot hope to
see. or to know, what is taking placc in
the outer world in the final and supreme
test for which a battleship is constructed.
Without the morale and the training
which will insure a proper performance
on the part of tho at times abused
'black gang,* success on the day of bat
tic will become impossible. To assist in
this necessary training and instruction
the engineering competitions are doing
their part. In the development of de
signs, the investigation of details and the
collection of data of the greatest value to
the service, most satisfactory results have
been produced.
"While economy is a watchword and a
first essential, the final desideratum in
our ships Is efficiency and a constant
preparedness for duty which ean be ob
tained only by the unremitting best efforts
of 'all hands.' These are directly en
couraged by the engineering competi
tions."
WEATHER.
! Unsettled and. Colder Today; Mon
day Probably Fair.
For the District of Columbia and
Maryland, unsettled and colder today;
Monday probably fair; moderate variable
winds.
The southern storm v/as central Satur
day night over the middle Atlantic
.states, and moving slowly northeast
ward. During the last twenty-four hours
it caused general rain* in the Atlantic
states from New England southward to
the Carollnas and in Tennessee, the Ohio
valle>, and the lower lake region. Rains
I and snows have fallen in the northern

mountain region, attending the south
eastward movement of the storm that
was central Friday night over Wyoming.
This storm has been followed by rapidly
ris'ng pressure, and decidedly colder
weather over the northern plains states
and the Rocky mountain and plateau
regions.
THie weather was wanner during tiat
urdaj in the gulf states and the Missis
sippi valley.
; The weather will be unsettled Sunday

with local rains on the immediate coast,
followed by generally fair weather Mon
day. Unsettled weather and local rains
are also probable in the region of the
great lakes and the great central val
'ejs. while In thf south Atlantic and
Rulf states, the plains states and the
Rocky mountain and plateau regions the
weather will be generally fair Sunday
and Monday.
Temperatures will be dicidedly lower

health for the Philippine Islands for the
second quarter of 1913 mention Is made
of two cases of leprosy that appear to
have been cured through the use of
chaulmoogra oil. One was that of a
man twenty-seven years old, und the
other of a woman, aged twenty-two. As

cures, but unfortunately all such relapsed
or died from some Intercurrent disease
soon after passing a negative period of
a year. The cases now reported as cured
have been negative for two years, and
there is hope that the results will prove
permanent.
The first half of 1913 showed the lowest
mortality rate in Manila since the Amer
ican occupation of the Philippines began.
