1380 REPORT—1868. ° 
TABLE C.—The quantities in the following Table have been calculated in order 
shape might have possessed a middlebody, a forebody, and corresponding . 
of fineness of ends, °5 L+-5 7’+4-19635 B=,r L for finding the length of : 
placement. Also a coefficient of diminished resistance has ‘been calculated — 
giving the length of bow as belonging to the speed.

Where the coefficient of fineness of ends is less than °5, no length of middle 
body is possible. This is the case with the ‘San Carlos,’ where the coefficient 
fineness of ends is equal to *4907, and 2” becomes negative ; also with th 
‘Thunder,’ where the coefficient of fineness of ends is equal to -4264, the small 
coefficient yet obtained. This Table has expressly been prepared to show th
