; The Dynamite Cralser Vesnvlns May
BevolBtlonls Naval Warfare.
The naval authorities of the world
ara anxiously watching the dynamite
cruiser Vesuvius, that tiny craft whoso
pneumatic guns did such terrible exe
cution at Santiago. The Vesuvius la in
a class by herself; there Is no other Tea

a greater range of fire, which K Is be
lieved by experts can and will be ob
tained by Improvements In pneumatic
gtms, the Vesuvius, or a vessel carry
Ing similar guns, would be more than
a match for the best battleship afloat.
The Veeuvlus was built br Cramps
at Philadelphia in 1886 and was accept
ed by the government and placed in
commission four years later. Its ar
mament consists of three pneumatic
jriro a, whkh are In the forward part of
the vessel. The guns are built Into the
vessel, which acts as a movable gun
carriage. Their muzzles are carried for
ward and project above the deck, near
the bow, at an elevation of IS degrees.
They are made of thin cast iron, are 15
Inches in diameter, and are 54 feet long.
They are not rifled, the vanes upon the
projectile being relied opou to give the
desired axial rotation. The full-sized
shells for the guns are 14 Inches in
dlajneter and about 7 feet long. A tail
Is fitted at the end of the shell with
spiral vanes, which secures its align
ment and rotation. They are designed
to carry a charge of 150 to 200 pounds
of dynamite or guncotton, and the ef
fect of the latter charge the results at
Santiago attest. Experts say that If
one of these giant shells exploded with
in twenty feet of an armored vessel, a
large section of the hull would disap
pear.
The shells are hurled from the guns
by compressed air and so powerful Is
this force that they can be. sent with
accuracy a distance of two and a half
miles. The air is compressed Into res
ervoirs containing a large number of
wrought iron tubes. Each shot that Is
fired at a mile range takes 150 pounds
of air. '
The guns are loaded and handled
with ease. Under the rear of each gun
are two "revolvers," each containing
five chambers for the shells. When the

gun Is to be loaded the breech Is unfas
tened and falls on a pivot at the ex
treme rear end. The opening in the gun
comes directly In line with the lowest
chamber In tie "revolver." A hy
draulic ram pushes the shell forward
luto the breech, which Is at once swung
upward, completing the continuity of
the barrel The "revolver" is thus turn
ed forward one division so as to be
jvady to supply the next shell. Hydrau
lic power is used to execute all the
maneuvers. The complete armament
of each gun is ten projectiles.
' when the gun is to be fired the air is
admitted to the chamber by means of a
valve. The distance that the she will
be thrown depends upon the amount of
air admitted Into the pneumatic tube,
which Is controlled by the valve. The
firing can take place as rapidly as the
shells can be loaded into the tubes. ..
The Vesuvius is particularly 'Well
adapted for blowing up mines by ex
ploding dynamite shells In the mine
fields. A shot from one of her guns, it
l,i estimated, will set off every mine
within a radius of fifty feet from the
point where the shell explodes. The
t-ri at weakness of the Vesuvius lies In

thick and could easily be pierced by a

LIEUTENANT VICTOR BLUE.
Went Ashore at Santiago, TraTeted 72
Miles, and Fpted Cervera's Fleet.
Lieutenant Victor Blue, whose bold
tour of Santiago de Cuba Bay won for
him high praise from Admiral Samp
son, has taken his place beside Ilobson,
Rowan, Fremont and the other young
men who have distinguished them
selves In the war with Spain. Blue
made a tour around the bay of seventy
miles, and counted the four armored
cruisers and the two torpedo boat de
stroyers of Cervera's famous armada.
Young Blue had no lack of exciting ad
ventures after Sampson's ships got into
Cuban waters. He was in charge of
the Suwanee (the transformed May
flower) when hostilities began, and he
accompanied the Gussle on her expedi
tion. The Suwanee, backed up by the
