great battlcship Deleware was sue
cessfully launched from the yards of
her builders, the Newport News Ship
building and Dry Dock Company
Saturday. The LAUGHING was witness
ed by 5000 people.
Compared with the battleships,
completed or under construction, Of
the navy of any foreign country, the
Delaware surpasses all. She is one
of four sister ships authorized by
Congress which will form an indomi-
table squadron. The other vessels are
the North Dekota, being built Mt
Quincy, Mass; the Florida. which
will be built Mt the New York navy
yard, and the Utah, to be built at

believed to be the highest practicable

and will have the highest practicable
radius Of action. The arrangements
of her main battery guns is such as to
permit n broadside fire % per cent
greater than that of the broadside

as is known, under construction. Her
defensive qualities, other than those
dependent upon armor protection, are
such as to give the maximum degree
of protection to all the vital portions
by means of unusually effective COM
partmental subdivision, so that in
conjunction with her armor protection
the defensive qualities of this vessel
are believed to be distinctly superior
to those of any battleship hereto de-
signed. The hull is protected by n
water line belt of armor feet in
width, whose maximum thickness is IL
inches. This armor belt gives effec-
tive protection to the boilers. machin-
cry and magazine spaces. The side
eoove the main armor belt is protect
ed by armor feet inches wide and
of maximum thickness of 10 inches.
Above the main easement armor amid
ships the side is protected by armor
of 5 inches thickness, which Chords
