Shipbuilding.
" r. Andrew Carnegie, who knows a.
vfilhg or two about the business, pub-
Riches a somewhat interesting letter in
the current issue of an iron trade pa—
per, arguing in favor of the "establish-
ment out great shipbuilding yard at,
the .port of New York. Mr. Carnegie
points out, among other things, that
the steel plates used in constructing
modern ships can be delivered in New
York for $7 or $8 a ton less than they
cost at the ship yards of G1 eat Bri-
lain and Germany He declares that
the woodwork used in such vessels
would also be correspondingly cheaper
here than it is abroad. and he argues
that if a great ship yard were estab-
Ehed on the waters adjacent to New
Track and fitted with modern appliances
fie wear cost of its operations, even at
much higher wage rates, would be less
than. thet of any similar concern in
' Tifizglanvd‘os Germany.
