Dur New Cruiser successfully Launched
at Baltimore.

BALTIMORE. Oct 90 The steel cruiser
Detroit, the largest vessel ever constructed
In a Baltimore shipyard, was successfully
launched from the Columbia Iron works
She slid into the water gracefully and
without hitch. The Detroit presented a
beautiful appearance lying on the ways,
gayly bedecked with bunting. From her
bow flew the Union jack and at the stern
the American colors were proudly un-
iurled to the breeze. At the bow OF Uncle
ham's new vessel stand was erected for
the use Of the little sponsor, Florence ~
Malster the four year-old daughter OF the
president Of the Columbia Iron works.
Until the last minute Il was expected that
Secretary Tracy, Of the navy, and other
heads OF departments would arrive from
Washington to witness the launch They
did not, however, put ia an appearance.
The Detroit is one OF three sister ships
Of 5000 tons each, for which bids were ac-
cepted in November. 1880 II is a point Of
interest that this 2 600 ton vessel Is almost
identical 10 displacement with the two
Chilian cruisers. President Eurazruiz aud
President Pinto, built in France, OF which
much has lately been heard The Detroit
Is 257 feet on the loadwater line and has an
extreme beam OF "a, with mean normal
draft Of l4'S feet The Detroit Is only
guaranteed to make IL knots an hour
whereas the Chilian vessels are 10 knot
ships. Congress limited the cost Of each
Of these three vessels 10 500 600 for guar

vessel If is knots should be made
A failure to reach Is knots rejects the
vessel The Detroit and No. o. which will
be launched In few weeks, are what are
termed twin screw coal protected cruisers.
Both have a watertight deck extending
the entire length of the vessel They have
an extra long forecastle and poop deck,
under the ends, OF which are spaces allotted
for working the broadside guns and tor
pedo apparatus. The Detroit has what Is
termed an open gun deck.
Especially interesting is the coiferdam
protection along the entire machinery
