	193k	THE OPERATION OF COALING THE BATTLESHIP IOWA (BB-4). THE record of the coast was broken yesterday in the supplying of the big warship with fuel. A thousand tons was put aboard in eight hours, or an average of 125 tons an hour. It was a case of rivalry between the port and starboard watches, and the officers were as much interested in the contest as the men. A blackboard was hung on the fighting mast, and every hour the tally of each watch was given. When the day's work was done it was about a standoff between the two gangs. From here the Iowa goes in company with the cruiser Philadelphia (C-4) to San Diego, where the ship will be joined by the Marblehead (C-11). The three warships will then go to Magdalena Bay for gun practice.		Image and text provided by University of California, Riverside; Photo courtesy of The San Francisco Call.
