The Dolphin 18 a dispatch-steamer, to be armed with one 6-inch mod ern rifled gun and six Hotchkiss cannon. Her keel was laid Octo ber 15, 1883, and she was launched at Chester, Pa., April 12, 1884. At the preliminary contract trial on November 20, to test the machinery, while at a displacement Of tons, 221 tons less than the load dis placement, she developed a speed of sixteen knots per hour, and an engine power of horses; and she fully meets the expectations of her designers and ot' the Department. A fracture of her shaft delays the formal acceptance from the contractor. After receiving her arma ment and stores, she will undergo a further trial in Narragansett Bay, under the system lately adopted by the Department. The cruisers Boston and Atlanta are well advanced in all their parts. The Atlanta was launched October 9, with a displacement at launching draft of tons, and the Boston is ready for launching. The steel boilers of both vessels are completed and the machinery is now being fitted. The keel of the cruiser Chicago was laid December 15, 1883. Up to November 22, 1884, tons of material had been worked into her hull, and she may be considered, in both hull and machinery, as being seven-tenths completed. The Naval Advisory Board has in the course of its duties inspected and tested about tons Of mild steel for the new vessels. It has been shown that our steel-makers can readily furnish this excel lent structural material ia large quantities, and its high quality has been assured by the tests adopted. The experience gained in these tests will, it is hoped, be made of permanent value to the Navy and to the manufacturers through the report of the Board.

Fdr details of the operations of previous years, I respectfully refer to the Annual Reports of the Chief of Engineers for 1878, 1879, 1880, and 1881.

This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 852 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Secretary of War, 1913, Vol. 1 During recent years the duties imposed upon the War Depart ment have been appreciably increased by the addition thereto of administrative supervision and control in matters relating to our ao-called insular possessions and to the construction of the Panama Canal. The scope and extent of War Department activities as thus enlarged and broadened make it physically impossible for anyone within a few months' time to get much more than a bird's eye view of affairs, and while early impressions may prove to be fundamentally sound and correct, I have felt it prudent to limit my first report largely to matters of most pressing moment and concerning which previous discussion has cleared the air and brought about a substantial consensus of opinion, or at least crystallized it into definite forms. During the brief period that I have been Secretary of War I have visited nearly every post within the continental limits of the United States, and the Canal Zone, and by these visits and by conversations with officers, enlisted men, and others have acquired information and impressions which I am weighing and correlating as rapidly as practicable with the pressure of current business, and I shall endeavor from time to time to give effect to the final conclusions thus reached when, and so far as, occasion calls for it and circumstances permit.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Secretary of the Navy, 1896: Being Part of the Message and Documents Communicated to the Two Houses of Congress at the Beginning of the Second Session of the Fifty-Fourth Congress When the above extract was written the work of reconstructing our Navy was in its earliest infancy. The only modern war vessels in course of construction at that time were the Chicago, Boston, Atlanta, and Dolphin. These had been laid down by Secretary Chandler under an act passed by Congress in March, 1883, and though much progress in their construction had been made under him, it was not until the second year of your first Administration that any of these vessels was ready for active service. Many difficulties had been encountered in obtaining suitable material for use in their construction. The making of high-grade mild steel plates for shipbuilding was a new industry, and it was impossible to procure at home preper steel forgings for engine shafts or for guns of more than 6 inches caliber.
