Columbus's Fleet To be Reproduced.

The Santa Maria, which took part re-
Gently in the Spanish celebration of the
400th anniversary of the departure Of
Columbus for America, at Palos, Spain,
is supposed to be an exact reproduction
of the Santa Maria of Columbus's fleet.
The vessel was launched at Csraca,
Spain. June 26, 1892. Her length over
all IS 20. 10 metres. The length between
the perpendiculars is 22 so metres; the
extreme beam 9.S6 metres. The weight
of the hull is 1877 tons. There are five
decks, main mast, foremast, mizzen-
mast and bowsprit. The armament con-
sists OF six falconets and two lombards.
The lombards are on the main deck.
The expense OF building the Santa Maria
was borne by the Spanish Government.
Reproductions are to be made OF the
other two vessels OF Columbus's tiee;,
the Pinta and the San Juan. They are
being constructed at Carscs bya joint
committee of Spanish and United States
officials. The expense Of building these
two vessels will be borne by the United
States Government.
As soon as the other vessels are COM
pleted it is expected that they " i'll start
for America, arriving IN New York to
take part in Columbian celebration in
October. After tnat celebration, the
vessels will sail by way of the st. Law
