Ilaytriond said: "I tliinlt that is for y'ou." 1 got up, followed a bcckoni'ng hithd;" and in a moment found myself alone with Mr. Tracy. Tho room was simply fur nished, and round the walls were col ored portraits of our new cruisers and line-of-bnttle ships. M r. Tracy is a massive, powerful man of about sixty, with close cut whito hair and board, a strong nose, gray .eyes and a chin as firm as the prow of one of hi3 own Ironclads. Withal' his aspect is kindly and genial, ' and X felt immq- SKCmiTAHY TRACY dlatcly assured of a strong, resolute, wise character, fully adequate to any duty that might bo Imposed upon him. His forehead Is high and clear, and his eyebrows nru somewhat inclined to overhang his eyes. I could easily havo taken him for an. admiral, who had' weathered a thousand gales and a hun dred fights. About tile first thing 'lie sain, how ever, showed how much I would havo leon mistaken in my surmise. "I didn't know tt thing about the duties of tho office when I first came here," he said. "I've madd thtm a study. My profes sion ltas"accustimcd me to get my sub "je"cts,";and':to 'amass and systematize in 'forrriiitfon. Ono is obliged to learn how 'to do that in the law. It was not long beford I got knowledge enough of the or nothing," and are liable at any mo nature of my duties to bo able to attend ment to becomo of tho greatest practi totlicm." : cal, value." "The principal subjest of your study "Upon tho whole, what Is your 'was'shipi, I suppose?" opinion of our presontnaval situation?" "Tho designing nnd building of ship-), "We 'nro now doing tho best we can their armament and management, are to put ourselves into a proper condition' the substance of what 1 havo to look after. Matters of minor detail are left in a measnro to my subordinates, but the direction of everything belongs to me, and tho greater their importance, tho moro entirely, of course, are they tny business. Cruiser No. 13, for in stanco',1 was built according to my ideas. 1 'don't mean that' I drcW the plans." ' '"Tho work of building these ships seems slow to an outsider. Is there no means of hurrying it1 for Instance, by distributing tho work to a number of linns. Instead of giving it all to ono?" "No," said the secretary, shaking his head. "It would not be possible for us to turn them out faster than wo are now doing. Tho works at Dcthlo hom, after a delay of four ycarsjMiro now working ata rate-more rapid thufa la the case at, the foreign ship yards. Their- plant' Is now- perfected, after many difficulties and disappointments, and at an Immense cost. Very few Arms in tho country can altera, .to, .put. so much. capital into a plant arid Jpt It; rq - malu' unproductive so long.'. Thero would bo no gain In cheapness or promptness were tho work done by tho government and the government, of course, has not the plant. tA firm whle)i gets a contract can sublet parts of its contract to other Arms, at its own risk and cxpenso. The delay has. beeht-n'ot in tho construction of the vessels, but In getting tho armor. Tho llcthlchcm company has just begun to dollver tho armor, at the rate of , SQO tons per mouth. We also have a contract with Carnegio & Co. to dollver COO tons o month That is moro than is delivered by firms abroad." "Is the quality of our armor as good us that in Kiglawl or elsowhero?" "It Is bother it Is tho best up to date. It is an ulloy of nickel and stel, which does not qraolf. Jt receives the shot, nnd bceras'to bebo'me homogeneous with It, like u snowball throtyn into a snow bank. It is a 'reootit Invention, und, from that point of view, it 1s fortuiiato that we were delayed sO lontIngettlhg our armor if It had been tldllvcred two years ago, as we expected, it woold have been now out of date, 1 Ad it Is, our armored crultcrs ami lino-of-battlo' ships i'vIII be tho best Of thoU4 kind in the world." . "Ilut-uutil theyiarecbrnplbW ?'" "Until they are complete, wo are Highest of all in Leavening Power. iwmi in. AESOOJEI PORE practically dcfcTif.clcss against any na tion that nttacUs us." "Then if Chill" "You may say this," said (he secre tary slowly, emphasizing his words: "If you arcpoSng tw write about tho matter, you may say this: Four months from the time those sailor's were hilled at Valparaiso. Chili, if we had declared war, would have had our Pacific doast pntirely at her mercy. With the Bhlp's she has, together with those that will be ready shortly she could have done anything she pleased with us. It has been her ambition to be mlstrefcs of the Pacific." This was to contemn not a pleasant' contingency conteraolatc. I suggested that wo could thrash them if we cauglit them on shore. Mr. Tracy laughed grimly, and intimated that they would probably decline to come ashore' for the purpose They could teecure all they wanted without disembarking. "And we must continue to be de fenders for several years at least?" "Yes; all that can bo said Is, wo are now going' ahead as fast ah possible. But even now there is this drawback that there is no absolute security there. The next congress will vote to carry on the work begun by this or by a pre vious ono. This makes many firms timid about undertaking contracts. They might go to a great expense and (then be left stranded." "What is tho character of our navy?" .1 inquired. "The men who man our ships arc very intelligent; th'ey adapt themselves readily to altered circumstances. A battle ship now is an entirely different thing from what it was somo years ago. , All tho sailing business thogolngaloft, taking in and making sail and all that is of course done away with. Tho work of the man is betyw1. There ara about thirty distinct machines, aboard one of our modern men-of-war; the ma chines for locomotion, for moving the anchors, the electrical machines and many others. In spito of, the complete change in tho nature of the duties aboard ship, wo have had no accidents. Tho English, on tho contrary, are hav ing accidents and making mistakes all the'tlmo. ' Our men are more intelli gent, careful nnd efficient." i "In caso of war, how many socmen have We?" "Why, very few; only enough to make a nucleus for an effectivo -force. Hut quite ldtely something has been done towards forming A naval militia at vari ous points nlong tho coast, qualified to bo atttUablo in case' of emergency. Organizations have been established at Massachusetts, New York, Pennsyl vania,' Carolina," 'Georgia, Texas and California" I am not suro that other states wcro not Included ''and the de partment sends officers nnd provides ships for their periodical drilling and instruction.' They havo been practiced i In firing giins, and in firing them at targets, hlch is about tho inost import ant thing' they cdn learn to do. They have done'very well. They cost little of defense. vo nave uecn rather slow in beginning, perhaps, but now that wo have begun, we are losing no time. On the very next day after tho bill for tho construction of the battle ships arid the armoretl cruisers becamo a law, they were advertised, nnd tho bids were re ceived three months later Of course, tho drawings had already been pro pared, 'conning pn tho 'probability of tho bill passing; so that no delay oc curred. If, now, congress makes tho appropriations for the construction, as they fall due, wo shall be making ex cellent progress. Hut there is no use In disguising the fact that wo aro not ready to defond 'ourselves If attacked now, and we cannot bo in loss than three or four years at tho earliest. If our enemy's lleet wcro to come Into New Vorlti harbor,, it ' could, destroy our commerce, cut off all communi cation with the city, and, consequently, its food supply Kew York would con- sumo abput flvq million pounds of solid 1 food a day and, consetjuenlly, could exact any ransom they chose to de- mand, no matter how preposterous. AncT Now York is only one of half a dozen great cities that could and would bo treated in tho samo vay. That Is the peril of our condition to-day. Hut if all goes well duripg tlio noxt few years, we shall be all right In the end, nnd once we get Into a tlefonslvo state, thero la no reason why wo bhould not continue to be so." I loft tho secretary of tho navy with tho conviction that the, ottica was in good hands. Mr! Tracy is blind to no dangqrs, but neither dpes,lio ojenggoruto them, nor is he unnerved'by them, lie knows what should bo done, and how to do It; and Is taking tile besttnoans to accomplish his purposos. Ho has the eonfldonco of liis subordinates; and, whether war comes toon, or lato, or not at all, )io will deserve the gratltudo of vno Atnorieau peopio.
