BLIND TO GREAT INVENTION
Franch Emperor Missed Opportunity
Whan Ha "Turned Down" Ericsson's
( Offer to Dulld Monitor.
March 8, 1802 ; August, 1921. Tliese
date comprise the history of Ironclad
monitors, the first of which, Invented
by John Ericsson, met nnd defeated
the Mcrrlmac at Hampton Hondo on
the dato first named. The last of the
British monitors, ufter swing minor
service In the World war, was con
signed to tho scrap heap by the ad
mlralty last August.
The history of tho monitors goes
back to the days of Napoleon 111, when
Great llrltaln was In n ferment, appro
hemline Invasion from across the
channel. Hrlcsson, n Swedish cngl
necr, urged tho Iftench emperor In
1834 to build, according to his design
armored vessels of low freeboard, with
big guns In revolving shotproof
cupolas, placed centrally on the decks.
Much a type of armor-clad ship, ho de
clared, would revolutionize niival war
fare. The Idea was not carried out.
and (treat llrltaln'a wooden shlpft
never had to faco the ordeal of the
Mcrrlmuc.
Hut Krlcsson prevailed on tliu Union
leaders of tho American Civil war
to glvo his Idea a trial, In lix) day
his ship was built, armed and
equipped, and It soon fulfilled the In
vontorfl hopo that It would serve an
a "monitor," or lesson, to the Confed
eracy. Kv.cn beforo this, however, thu llrlt
l;h admiralty had taken up tho Idea
and .had built a vessel of n similar
type.. At the tlmo of the armistice
the Drltlsh navy had .'17 of them.
