larger tonnage has been laid down in

With the RUsSo-Japanese war as a
basis for opinion it is evident that the
chief strength of the Japanese navy
lies in its battleships and armored
cruisers. At present the Japs have
thirteen battleships, among which
are the Full, the Shikishima, the
Ashai and the Mikasi. which served
through the war with Russia, and the
five battleships captured from the enc

constructed, their armament being the
