f1cient velocity to send them Is miles
or to penetrate about sixteen inches of
the hardest armor at range OF about
two miles. Unlike al British ami for
eign battleships built in the past thir-
ty years the new addition to the fleet
will carry no weapon smaller than
the great 12-inch piece except eighteen
3-inch quickfrers for repelling attacks
by torpedo craft. She will mount
neither 9.2-inch, 7.5-inch nor 6-inch
guns, she will be the biggest warship
afoat and she will have only the big
gest and most powerful guns. The
secrets which will be incorporated in,
the huge hull are still hidden, but it
is known that they tend to economy
as we'll as efficiency. The Dreadnought
will cost ten per cent. per ton less
than recent battleships British built,
although she will represent the last
word in all details of her construc-
tion. In another respect the Dread
nought will be unique; she viii be the
first battleship In the world to be driv-
en- by turbines. These engines will
supply the power for four propellors,
two more than any previously built
British batleships, which should make,
her the fastest ship of her class
afloat. Another advantage of the tur-
bines, as shown by the performances
iof the Carmania, is that the gunnars,
will have a steadier deck from which
ito handle the guns.
The guns, armor, machinery, boil
ers, ETC., are ready to be placed in the
Dreadnought. SO there should be no
difficulty in having her ready for sea
in twelve mouths, when she will join
the Atlantic Aeet, based on Gibraltar,
thus being Ilaced midway between
the channel and Mediterranean fleets
AS trouble thu eatens on the one side
Of the other tie ships OF the Atlantic
fleet are moved, making them of the
greatest use in the time of war, no
matter who the enemy might be.
Writing of this fleet as 1t will be
when the Dreadaought Joins, a naval
expert said: Nothing as devastating
as this concentr tied destruction has
ever been conceived in the brain of
man. 1t is impossible to picture the
result of one minutes we'll directed
fire at an enemy's ships, and when one
minute is followed by others, the eff
feet would be too terrible for words,
presuming the gunners get the range
and fire as at target practice To
this length has the contest for sea
power gone, and this ,is not the end,
for the time Is not Tar distant when
the British ensign will fly over fleets
and squadrons Of .Dreadnoughts' yes
sells costing a million and a half ster-
ling or more, each with ten or twelve
12-inch guns, which will engage an
antagonist when three or four miles
distant, and will pour in succession
of shells, each weighing $50 pounds,
carrying Wholesale destruction in their
wake" ,st ~ ~.
