English or German battleships mak
ing an attack on New York, could
destroy several billion dollars

Daniment, and steam away again
with but little damage, as far as the

the statement of Senator Benjamin B.

of tho Senate Naval Affairs com,

that might be placed there, would

about depths of water at variou
places along the sound route,
