BATTLESHlP MICHIGAN
Will Be Launched Tomorrow At Cam
den, NJ. j., Yard.

Washington, May 24-On Tuesday
next, at Camden, N. j., will be launch
ed the battleship Michigan, the first
American all big guns ship. The Mich
igan is a sister ship to the South Car
DINA, which however, has not yet
been launched, and represents the first
attempt by the American government
to construct a vessel to carry as many
heavy guns of even calibre as her
displacement will permit.
The displacement of the Michigan is
10000 tons, against nominally 1900
tons of the English Dreadnought class,
which displacement, however, is gen.
orally supposed to be much greater
owing to over-draught. Her main
battery will include eight Pinch rifles
and two submerged torpedo tubes. On
the main deck are to be four turrets,
one turret less than in the English
Dreadnoughts, but from these tllr-
rets the eight Pinch guns, it Ms
claimed, will be able to fire as many
guns broadside as can be fired from
the five turrets of the English Dread
nougEts.
The latest American Dreadnoughts,
the North Dakota and the Delaetare,
now under construction, will have five
turrets each, so constructed on the
center line Of the vessels that their
10 guns may be fired broadside at
once The Michigan is to have also a
secondary battery of % 3-inch rapid
fire, two 3-pound semi-automatic and
minor calibre guns destined mainly
for defence against torpedo attacks.
The Michigan is under construction
by the New York Shipbuilding Co..
her contract price being $3,5S5,OOO. She
is about 80 per cent. completed.
Miss Carol B. Newberry, the daugh-
ter of Assistant Secretary Newberry,
has been chosen sponsor for the ship
at her launching which will be attend
ed by Mr.. Newberry and party of
senators and representatives, naval Of
fcers and others from Washington.
