2S Delaware" said this officer. The
officer then pointed out the differ
ence between the English Dreadnaught
and the American Delaware class,
going into some details as to the
plans for the latter which It il not
deemed polite by the navy depart
ment to make public evensat this late
date. Generally stated, the salient
points Of difference were TO be found
in the arrangement Of the armament.
The IL inch guns Of the British YES
sells are carried in the two turrets on
the central lines from bow to stem
and In two waist or side turrets;
while the guns Of the Delaware
type" are placed in four turrets In
line with the keel. The advantage
Of the latter arrangement Il the abil-
ity to bring every one OF the guns
Of. the primary batteries Of the ship
to hear upon an opponent on either
ode. while rs per cent Of the British
fire would be masked under some
circumstances. There also are mum
erous changes in the interior ar
rangenents, and on the whole, accord
ing to this naval officer save from the
fact that the tonnage Of the two class
as are alike and turbine machinery
is tosbe used for the propeilora pow.
er, the American Delaware does not
resemble the British Dreadnaught.
