QUEEN OF NAVY.
The North Dakota Made 7z.as Knots an
Hour.

Portland, Me-, Nov 5.--The North Da-
kota is the fastest battleship Of tile
Dreadnought type ahoat, as wen as one
Of the two most powerful battleships in
the world. Her screw Standardization
tests over the Rockland measured mile
course yesterday developed maximum
speed Of 2.25 knots an hour, and an av-
erage Of 2l.S63 knots. Both marks are
in excess Of the best performances Of
either her sister ship, The Delaware or
the Bellerophon, the leading Dreadnought
of the British navy.
In attaining this surprising speed, the
turbine engines Of the North Dakota
were forced 10 the development Of more
horsepower than has been reached by
any battleship ahoat. maximum Of
35.l50 horsepower was recorded, while
1856 horse power was the mean. The
maximum Of propeller revolutions was
2S6 minute. II was found that 28y
revolutions IN this time were sufficient 70
maintain the cantract speed Of 2l knots
The North Dakota BY her performance
yesterday takes precedence over any 9th
er vessel aaoat as general class bat
tleship. Her sister ship, the Delaware,
was in uncertain possession Of this hon
or through her trial performance Of Oc-
tober 23, but the figures recorded for the
North Dakota yesterday surpass those
Of any other Dreadnought.
There is but one such battleship afoat
at the present time whose attainments
may exceed those Of the North Dakota.
This is the Neptune Of Che British navy.
which has just been launched. The Nep-
tune, however. will have to attain
figures much in excess Of her specifca-
tions to excel the performance Of the
North Dakota. The Bellerophon Of the
British navy has made near 22-l knots
as compared with the North Dakota's
performance yesterday Of 22.25.
Comparisons Of the trial performances
