rs MASSACHUSETTS.

The Massachusetts,, the second Of the
three coast line battle ships to be
launched, was authorized by act Of
Congress approved June 80, 1890, APP
propriating for the construction OF
three battle ships, at an Individual cost
not exceeding S4,0000O0.
Bids were opened October l, 1880,
and 10 William Cramp 81 Sons, of Phila-
delphia, were awarded two OF these
crafts at a contract price OF S3,020,OOO
apiece. The award was made Novem-
Der 10, 1890, at which time the Cramps
formally bound themselves to finish the
two vessels within exactly three years.
The Massachusetts is built OF steel.
The hull is protected by belts OF heavy
armOr ~ feet wide, three feet OF which
Is above water. This protection runs
along both sides Of the vessel for dis
lance or las feet amidships, at the ex-
tremities Of which the armOr turns In
toward the ceter line, az an angle OF 40
degrees for a longitudinal distance OF
"a feet, affording a total broadside pro-
lection OF l96 feet, and passing around
and supporting the armOr for the 13-

thick, under which are the magazines
and machinery. Above this belt OF the
side armor, and extending from redouot
10 redOubt, the sides are i've inches
thick, with backing Of ten feet Of
coal.
The vessel is cut up forward beneath
the water line, making a powerful ram
bow and doing away with excessive bow
waves on account Of the easier lines so
obtained, as well as greatly adding 10
the maneuyering qualities.
