Mr. Andrew Carnegie, who knows a

the port of New York. Mr. Carnegie
'pOints out, among other things, that
the steel plates used in constructing
modetuships can be delivered in New
York forSZ or $8 a ton less than they
cost. ntthe ship yards of Great Bri-
‘tain and Germany. ' He declares that
the woodwork used in such. vessels
would-also be correspondingly cheaper
here than it is abroad, and he argues
tit-:3. if a great ship yard were estab-
lished on-the waters adjacent to New
York. and fitted with modern appliances
the total cost of its operations, even at
much higher wage rates, would be less
than othat of any similar concern in.
