The navy department has deter
mined upon the plans for the six new
cruisers which are to bear the names
of the cities Denver, Des Moines,
Galveston, Chattanooga, Cleveland
and Tacoma. These vessels will have
the qualities of battleships as well as
those of cruisers. They will not be
remarkable for speed; in fact, they
will be slow in comparison with cruis-
ers of the most modern type. Two
knots have been taken off the steam
ing capacity, which was at first de-
signed for these ships in order to give
them heavier armament, two more
guns and more room for their crews
