The United States torpedo flotilla has
become within n. few weeks a foimld
abln part of the navj. Had the war
with Spain opened during the winter,
the enemy would have had an immense
advantage becauso of her strong fleet
of torpedo' boats and torpedo boat de
stroyers lendy for Immediate service.
Now that alt our finished torpedo boats
aro in commission, several more arc
almost teady to go to sea. three hao
'been purchased abroad unci a number
of fast yachts have been converted
Into torpedo boat destroyers. Ameri
can naval officers say we have little to
fear fiom Spanish torpedo boats.
Everything considered, the American
torpedo licet Is today superior to tho
Spanish, If the war is to bo conducted
In American waters only.
Tho torpjedo boat Js limited in its
range of action. AA'hllo the new tor
pedo boat9 ato seagoing craft, their
uaefullness In the open sea Is small.
Only nn officer of great daring would
volunteer to take the finest torpedo
boat on the sens across the Atlantic un
accompanied by a cruiser or seagoing
battleship. Even when in company
with large vessold torpedo craft hao
rough times in the open sea. None but
those of the lafest type have sufficient
coal capacity for a Journey across the
Atlantic, and a fow days of loligh
weather would piobubly leae even
these In mldocean without a lump of
coal In their bunkers. Torpedo boats
which must be taken acioss tho ocean
nre coaled at sea nt Intervals from
seagoing vessels accompanylngvthem.
