"
But
,
my
dear
president
,
"
said
the
major
,
"
is
not
the
cost
price
of
aluminum
extremely
high
?
"
"
It
was
so
at
its
first
discovery
,
but
it
has
fallen
now
to
nine
dollars
a
pound
.
"
"
But
still
,
nine
dollars
a
pound
!
"
replied
the
major
,
who
was
not
willing
readily
to
give
in
;
"
even
that
is
an
enormous
price
.
"
"
Undoubtedly
,
my
dear
major
;
but
not
beyond
our
reach
.
"
"
What
will
the
projectile
weigh
then
?
"
asked
Morgan
.
"
Here
is
the
result
of
my
calculations
,
"
replied
Barbicane
.
"
A
shot
of
108
inches
in
diameter
,
and
twelve
inches
in
thickness
,
would
weigh
,
in
cast-iron
,
67,440
pounds
;
cast
in
aluminum
,
its
weight
will
be
reduced
to
19,250
pounds
.
"
"
Capital
!
"
cried
the
major
;
"
but
do
you
know
that
,
at
nine
dollars
a
pound
,
this
projectile
will
cost
--
--
"
"
One
hundred
and
seventy-three
thousand
and
fifty
dollars
(
$
173,050
)
.
I
know
it
quite
well
.
But
fear
not
,
my
friends
;
the
money
will
not
be
wanting
for
our
enterprise
.
I
will
answer
for
it
.
Now
what
say
you
to
aluminum
,
gentlemen
?
"
"
Adopted
!
"
replied
the
three
members
of
the
committee
So
ended
the
first
meeting
.
The
question
of
the
projectile
was
definitely
settled
.
