VAST PROGRESS.
A CONF arison OF this beSinninS-of-tha
century vessel with those at the COM
mencemcnt of the last two decades
proves at what astonishing rate the
dimensions Of the modern steamship are
growing. in the commencement OF the
year 1881 the longest and the largest
steamer in the world was the City of
Berlin" now the Meade of the United
States army transport service. She is
$50 feet long. and her displacement is
5000 tons. Ten years later, in 1891 the
City of Paris" $50 feet long and about
5000 tons displacement, was the largest
vessel a1loat. While in the year 1901 the
largest vessel Will have "a length OF 700
fee, and displacement OF $4,000 tons.
IL will be noticed that the displacement,
WHICH is the true measure of vessel S
size has doubled during the one decade
and more than doubled during the next.
II this rate of increase is kept up the
question arises, what kind of ships will
be building when the century is two or
three decades old? The dimensions
would be SO huge that one hesitates to
put Their, down in sober print.-Scien-
tifc American.
