Each Will Have a Displacement oi

Queen and Prince of Wales.
AN UNLUcKY ROYAL YACHT
MIR. wATsON's ADVICE SOUGHT BY
THE BRITISH ADMIRALTY.
English Grievances Against Amerf-
cans-Archbishop Favier's In
terview with the Pope.


LONDON. Jan. 5.-The British Admir-
atty has decided to build two battleships
which are intended TO be the largest in the
world The distinction of having the larg
est warships has hitherto been held by
Italy. with the Lepanto. and her sister ship.
the Italia. Great Britain's two projected
large warships, to be respectively named
the Queen and the Prince of Wales, will
be 1000 tons heavier than the Italian ships
mentioned, reaching the enormous dis
placement of 5000 tons, which is $500
heavier than Americas biggest armorclad.
These tremendous British vessels will car
ry nothing larger than Pinch guns. Their
batteries will chiefly be composed of these
guns and OF 7.5-inch and 6-inch guns. The
determination TO increase the bulk of the
battleships was only arrived at after much
discussion, for, since the days of the Royal
Sovereign (of 14,150 tons), the Admiralty
has been inclined to favor battleships of
smaller displacement. of which the Cano-
pus (of $3.50 tons) is the best type. In the
meanwhile Russia, France, the United
States and Japan have all been increasing
their disbursements till Great Britain has
been almost left behind Now she steps in,
taking the lead with the Queen and the
Prince of Wales, to say nothing OF the

tons, now nearing completion.
The Admiralty, apparently, has as great
confidence in George w. Watson as Sir
Thomas Upton, for it has called on the
yacht designer to give advice in regard
10 the new royal yacht, now better known
as the Royal Naval Farce" Though the
entire force of draughtsmen at the Ports
mouth dock yard has been persistently
working in the endeavor 10 patch up this
unlucky boat, the authorities have been
unable to effect anything. 1t is hoped
Watson will be able TO save the enormous
amount of money expended on her, though
ii is not thought the Queen will ever trust
herself on board the boat.
Denny Bros. are increasing the precau-
lions to prevent anything leaking out re-
garding the construction of Shamrock III.
No great progress appears TO have been
made so far, though a dredger is busiy
engaged clearing channel outside the
yard. twenty-five by six feet.
There is much interest in Watching cir
cles over Mr.. l.. G. Currie's challenge for
the Seawanhaka. He is as determined as
Sir Thomas Upton to leave no stone I'M
turned which could aid his success He
is building less than three boats, one
at Harley & Mead's, Cowes, and the 9TH
ers at Stevens yard, at Southampton.

July Mr.. Currie hopes to have the very
best talent England can produce for the
international contest.
