SIGNS for the new armored cruiser with those
of the Baltimore, which is the best and fastest

the readiness with which responsible bidders
connected for building "A ship with a diSplacc-
ment of 500 tons and designed to develop
speed of 90 knots with 10000 horse power
shows how great has been the development OF
shipbuilding in the United States. This is
undoubtedly true. The Baltimore, when II
was contracted for under the Democratic Adj
ministration, marked a great advance i'll size,
speed and horse power over the cruisers previ-
ously built. The armored cruiser, if it fufls
the expectations of the Department, will be
a magnificent ship, outranking in every re-
spect all the vessels either now in service or
under construction. 1t will be the strongest.
fastest and best cruiser ailoat in any navy of
the world.
When the Baltimore and her sistcr-Ships
were contracted for by Secretary Whitney
there was a chorus of acclamations from the
Democratic press The Chandler ships were
dsparaged and the Cleveland Administration
was cffusively praised for taking effective
measures to raise the standard of the new navy.
