launched from the ways at Wolff &

morning, and is now moored at the
contractors wharf to receive her boiler,
masts and spars. Three thousand peo.
pie, standing on the East Water-street
elevated roadway, the roofs of surround

water. Not an accident nor a hitch
marred the event.

launching the drenching rain which had
been pouring all the morning ceased, as
if for the occasion, and the sun came
forth and shown warmly down till noon,

bridges, and soon every available space
on the platform about the ship was
taken, and the spectators overfowed on
the river banks and into the torpedo
boat sheds, every crossbeAm of which on
