Germany's Largest Steamship.

launched at Stettin the largest steam
ship ever built in Germany. 1t is the

sents the largest developments In that
type of vessel designed for large pas
senger and cargo capacity than for
high speed. Thus In dimensions the
new German liner is inferior to the new
twenty-five mo Cunarder now under
construction, but her tonnage (25, 5000
and her displacement (35,5 SOC tons) are
somewhat greater.
Inasmuch as the win screw engines
are designed for a sea speed of but II
knots, it has been found necessary to
provide for 1880 horse power, Which
is far less than is required for the high
speed liners. The Kaiserin Augusta
Victoria is 600 feet in length, n feet
beam, and ST feet deep from boat deck
to keel, there being eight decks through
which pass automatic hoists and ele-
vators. The dining saloons will be ar
ranged on the restaurant plan, and
meals served a la carte, so that the
passage tickets will be sold, if desired,
independent of the food There will
also be facilities for exercise and recre-
alton, which should be appreciated by
ocean travellers. The new steamer will
really be a large town, having n pop
ulation of 1,S49, of which $50 will COM
prise the crew., while there will be sag
first class passengers, sol second, 21S
third, and 26S in the steerage.
