lihw Great Ships Building There
‘ Cause inclement

Following is an editorial from the
Bridgeport Standard:
‘It has btcn known in a general way
and frequently referred to in a casual
newspaper paragraphvthat in a recently
established shipyard. on the Groton
shore, opposite New London. in this
state, two ships are being built which
when done will carry 20,000 tons of
freight each, and will be the largefi
merchantmeu afloat, and more than
twice the size of the average warship.
These shipsare to be used on the
Western side of the continent in the.
Pacific trade. and the contract for their 1
construction was given something over i
a year ago. by James J. Hill. to C. H. ‘
Hanscom and his associates for about *
35.000.000. in The World’s Wor tori
January. 1902. is published the firs nd-
equate and complete statement of this ;
undertaking and just what it means to i
the shipbuilding and the commerciuli
world. I
The shipyard where these monsters;
are being constructed. occupies the i
ground where the New London andI
Providence divrsron of the Shore Line.
railroad formerly ended on the Groton !
shore. and where. before the building:
of the bridge farther up. the cars were i
run upon the ferryboats and transfer- ;
red to the New London side. Here were i
found the needed conditions for a ship- .
yard capable of turning out two ships 1
larger than had ever been built before. 3
and inside of two years those ships will ‘
he. afloat and ready for the work for!
which they are intended. I
l
The building of s shipyard adequate '
to such .an undertaking was no small
work. but it was put through with a
vim and push which overcame all ob-
stacles and today the ships are well on
their way to completion. Six hundred
and fifty feet long. seventy-four feet
beam and fifty feet deep. built of three-
inch steel plates. with triple expansion
engines and twin screws. they will be
designed for safety and capacity rather
than speed. although they will be cap-
able of doing about as well as the great
battleship Oregon did on her famous
and record-breaking trip from San '.
Francisco to Key West. The trade of i
the east calls for increased facilities in
carrying and these two ships which to-
gether will equal in capacity a dozen
average freighter-s are expected by Mr.
Hill. “to revolutionize the carrying
trade of the Pacific."
Some figures of the freight. capacity
of these vessels are given in the article \
referred to and from them it is possible =
to understand the tremendous sale of.
the new ships: i
“Each boat can carry 400 head of g
cattle. 5.000 tons of coal and 8,000 tons ;
of Water. An entire locomotive can be .
shipped ready to run out on some Ori- i
'ental railway: 1,500 passengers can be.
i
accommodated—150 first class: 150 .
wecond class; 200 third class and 1.000 ‘
steerage~beslde a crew of 300. The nr- 1
runaoment of classes will in a measure .
divide the American passengers fromt
the Asiatics. Turned into an armv i
transport each ship could carry ten full
regiments and guns. from eight‘inch.
down. They will be thirty per cent.
stronger than any boats now afloat, tho ‘
boilers will nggreirate for cach12.000
horse power. and their speed will nvcr- '
age fourteen knots."
They will be fittcd with every appli-
ance and convenience for safety and.
comfort known to science and the fur— L
uishings will rank with those of the»
fast Atlantic passenger steamers. .
Twenty—five miles of electric wiring“
will furnish all the power used. except ;
that of the main engines. and will do‘
the lighting also. and refrigerating ar- :
rungements will enable the Csliforniuf
growers to deliver fruit in Honc Kong
or Japan in precisely the condition in ;
which‘lt was shipped at San Francisco. 1
Well may the projectors of these mar- i
_ the wonders expect to revolutionize the .
carrying trade and curious is the fact;
that such marvels are now being built 5
for the far on Pacific. at a little town j
on the Connecticut coast.

The following public statement of a

Mr. H. Swain.'31 Franklin street, by

band both laughed and anccred at her
very frequently. and that she was sul
ject to many other annoyances of a
similar nature. She said that on July
5 she picked up a bushel of papers and
remains of fire-crackers which had
been burned on her front lawn. and
she had some of the remains in court. ‘
including half a giant cracker. which.
in good condition. must have been over
half a foot in length. Mr. Whitiock
and his son were arrested on her com-
plaint for the Fourth of July disturb-
ance. but both proved allbis in the Nor-
walk court.
. Mrs. Whitlock testified that she had
never paid any attention to Mrs. Unis.
and. in fact. wouldn't notice nor any~
way. She said that when Mrs. Uhic
complained that her horse went
into the front yard and trampled down
the lawn it was only after Mrs'Uhlc
bad frightened the beast. She denier.
that she or any of her family had ever ‘
annoyed Mrs. Ohio in any way, and
that there had been no intentional dis-
