From the London Mali The question of the Increase of the German navy no being agitated In the relchsta affords a topical Interest to the Germanla dockyard where so many Ger man warships hs ve been constructed and from which so many more are likely to Issue in the Immediate future It situated pear the old town of Kiel and at the bottom of that magnificent Inlet of the Baltic Sea which helps to render Kiel possibly one of the roost easily defended naal stations ln northern Europe Curiously enough it took Its origin at Berlin In 1823 a man named Kgells had tjiere a small foundry and workshop for little machines He employed only ten men His enterprise prpspered however aad he devoted his attention to the rnan ufacture of boilers and other machinery for ships When a regular plan was drawn up after the last war with France for the building of a navyt the of Bgells became a limited company and undertook to build ships of alt de scriptlons In 1879 the dockyards of the North German Ship Construptlng Company created sixteen ears previously were purchased and increased on an ambitious scale From that date till 19Q2 when they were taken over by the celebrated Krupp firm they turned out seven vessels for the imperial navy without reckoning torpedoboats for Germanj Brazil Turke and Spain and a large number of merchant ships for various countries The torpedoboat 2 launched in 1885 attained a speed of 15 knots a record one in those days Fifty frve Acres of Workshops The adent of the Krupp company marked a Still further advance Huge sums were immediately spent on a practically new plant to which enormous additions ha va since been made large staff and hundreds of workmen were carefully trained and a keen lookout was maintained for men with new ideas At present the Germanla works may be classed among the most extensive and best equipped In existence They cover almost 55 acres The building docks are eight in num ber A ninth Is projected for ships 225 meters lone bv 40 meters wide Four of them are each inclosed in a sort of glass hall with an Iron framework so that work in them is not interrupted by cold or storms The workshops for mechanics coppersmiths turners the engineering and tin plate depart mepts the foundries and so forth all disposed one aboe the other and in long galleries ex end oer 14 000 square meters The electric lighting means of close uon 7 000

German railroads run in all directions Person with a mechanical turf of mind may be in terested to learn that no fewer than laO steam cranes are scattered about all parts and that two of these one a swimming cranes are able to lift a load of 200 tons each The whole place presents a welWnigh bewildering mass of oiBces workshops furnaces shafts and immense sheds and galleries whence thick clouds of smoke are belched forth day and night Has Staff of 7500 Employes The KrUPP company is thorough in all It takes in hand one understand bet ter that the welfare of their workpeople is a valuable asset Hence their arrangements for the health comfort and amusement of their 7 500 hands keep pace with their other efforts Two hundred and flf teen dwellings containing from three te five rooms are provided for the married mep gingle ones may live ln a roomy and commodious boarding house built ex pressh for them 11 these erections form a colony which comprises cooperative stores two break fast

clerks and better paw employes 31 dwellings are supplied in and around Kiel Attention has been given almost exclu sively to warships since the compapy eitered Into possession From ISO till the beginning of the present year they took orders for 8 battleships small cruisers 1 artillery tender 33 torpedo baaU and 10 submarines from the Ger man government in addition to others from Austria Hungary Russia Turkey Norwaj Spajn China Argentina and Bragll Thus it is easy to see at a glance how greatly they have contributed to the raising of the German fleet Moreover a vast proportion of Its best units pro ceed from their stocks The tatherland mostly owes her sub marine flotilla to their initiative and epergj They were the sole firm ln Germany to turn the new development to account and to produce a satisfsuctory type of craft Within less than a year since establishing themselves at Kiel they launched a IT ton submarine of such con splcuous utility that it was at once secured by the Busslart admiralty Under the name of Forel It did such good service during the Russo Japanese conflict that three others of a similar type were ordered from St Petersburg Austria Hungarj Italj and especially Norway likewise proved customers Triumph of the Turbine As with the submarine so with the turbine At first the German naval authorities were extremely reluctant to adopt It A severe struggle had to be waged with an administration which mainly organ lied by soldiers at the outset was apt to subordinate naval viewa to military ones and make light of the particular requirements of tbe sea forces At length six torpedoboats were fitted with turbines and their success was unquestionable One of them the Gl4 with a forced speed of 36 knots ip still one of the fastest vessels In any fleet When we remember that Just over a generation ago Germany obtained most and certainly the best of her warships and cruisers in France and England the strides made In the Germanla dockyards and the gigantic building yards existing at Hamburg Bremen Stettin Pantzlg Elbing and other places constitute a prodigious adyance The wonder becomes even greater owing to the fact that with exceedingly few exceptions none but German labor and German material are employed Ship construction however is liable to considerable fluctuations which occasion serious loss of monev Several years ago the Krupp company made provision for this by starting the manufacture of oil motors for use on shore and afloat When the latter were yet in their tentative stage the possibllitiea they offered were fully grasped No money or pates were spared to improve them They have been mri for more than three years and al i rapst Invariably with the most gratifying results rvumners or tntm nave roupa their way Into
