FINEST IRONCLAD AFLOAT.
A New French Warship Probably
Entitled to be so Designated.

There are some important facts
in connection with the new French
line-of-battle-ship Jaureguiberry,
which was launched the other day
near Toulon. In the first place
she was built III less than TWO
wears. q period which leaves all
previous French records far be-
hind. and upsetting all existing
theories as to the facilities in that
country for increasing its naval
forces. In the second the ship Is
probably the very finest ironclad
afloat. being superior in some res
meets 10 The Nile or Trafalgar Of
the British navy, which she most
nearly resembles. 1t is said that
her lines are so fine and so differ
eut from those of the majority Of
French bsttleships that she looks
rather like s fast cruiser than 8
shin of the line. The stem, gently
curving outward, fails to recall the
characteristic boot-toe form Of the
majority Of French irouclads; and
the forecastle is not only high, but
8 deck higher than the after part
of the ship.
The problem undertaken by the
designer was TO combine great
speed with his gun-power and SIS
complete protection as it was posi-
bic to give and it is claimed that
NJ. Lagane has solved his difficult
les in 8 remarkable manner. His
engines Of 1900 horsepower are
expected to give = speed of II
knots. or with forced draught III
knots. She carries 4+-ton guns on
her Quarterback and forecastle,
and 8 S4-ton gun on esch beam,
with full complement Of quick
firing snd other machine guns.
An important feature Of her arma-
ment is that her guns are so bal
anced that they csn sll be trained
in any direction without affecting
the trim Of the ship. Another
noticeable thing about the Jaure-
gulberry is the extensive use OF
electricity SIS S motive power. 1t
will move the turrets, raise the
ammunition, and do much other
work which in the majority Of
modern ironclads is done by steam
or by pneumatic or hydraulic
power. II Will also Of course, light
the vessel. The ship contains so
inoandescent lights, and there Will
be six very powerful Nangin
searchlights.-N. y. Post.
