THE LOUISIANA FASTER.
Result Of the Recent Speed Trial Of
the Connecticut.
tySl-tf.S

After year of speculation and conflict
ing claims the relative speed OF the big
battleships Connecticut and Louisiana has
been practically established and on the
face Of the incomplete returns the private
Quilt boat Louisiana appears to have slight
ly the better record. Her speed record es-
tablished year ago is given by the bureau
OF steam engineering as 1888. made on a
four hours continuous test. with her pro-
pellers making 127.6S revolutions per
minute. The Connecticuts trial was made
during the night and completed this morn
ing on the run from Rockland, Me-, to
Provincetown, Mass. The result IL disclosed
in the following telegram received at the
Navy Department from Capt. Richardson
Glover, president of the trial board at
Provincetown, Mass:
THE Connecticut finished very successful
four hours, trial at 80 this am; average
speed 1878 knots Connecticut landed the
trial board at Provincetown and proceeded
to New York. The inspection board pro-
ceeds to New York and the engineering
trial board to Boston,"
The Connecticut and Louisiana are sister
ships, the former built at the New York
navy yard and the latter by the Newport
News Shipbuiding Company. At the Navy
Department it is pointed out that the COl-
nectcut this trial was carrying $50 tons
more weight than did the Louisiana on her
trial, which caused her to draw five inches
more water. Therefore, it is asserted.
that if allowances are made for these con-
ditions the Connecticuts performance is
really superior On the other hand the
private shipbuilders assert that the fact
that the Louisiana had her trial when the
ship was brand new, while the Connecticut
the superiority in speed of the former
boat.
