American Fleet Now Has the
Biggest Battleship in the

CHAMPAGNE SENDS

5000 People See Warship Shot

port News.
Especial to the Evening start

NEWPORT NEWS. Va, Feb. 1.-THE
great battleship Delaware was success
fully launched from the yards of her
builders, the Newport News %Shipbuild
ing ana Drydock Company. today. The
launching was witnessed by 5000 peo-
pie, including Governor Pe%nnewil1, of
Delaware.
The customary bottle of champagne
was broken over the bows of the new
giant of the American nayy by Miss
Anna F. Cahall, who had been selected
as the representative of the State of
Delaware. Miss Cahall was attended
by Miss Coleman Dupont, of Whining
ton, and Miss Frances Hazel, of Dover.
as aides.
The Delaware, together with his sister
ship, the North Dakota. now under con-
struction, will be the largest battle
ships ever built for the United States
nav Each vessel will have a dis
placement of 10000 tons, and both are
designed for a speed of twenty-one
knots.
In general appearance the Delaware
will differ greatly from any battleship
now in commission in the United States
navy. The most striking difference will
be noted in the long, lean and rakish
hull. The forward deck will be very
high and unusually broad at the bow.
This height and breadth insure the
breaking of the heaviest seas and Will
prevent the dashing of any grear
amount of water over the bows and on
the deck. This will make it possible
for the guns in the forward turrets to
be fired when the ship is running at full
speed in a heavy storm.
Another new feature Of the Delaware
will be the two Skeleton" masts. which
are to replace the present steel tube
masts now in use on all of the battle
ships in the United States navy. This
new type of masts is made of small
steel tubes and steel wire cables, and in
a test conducted in Hampton Roads last
summer it was proven that it is practi-
cally impossible to shoot the masts
away.
The vessel also will be equipped with
two submerged torpedo tubes one being
on the port side and the other on the
6ldIDOdIh SAOCs 1iIV
of the Delaware will be equal to those
of any battleship in the world. There
will be a water lin belt Of armor ex-
tending from stem to stern. This belt
will be eleven inches in thickness along
the engine-rooln. fre-room and maya
zine spaces, and will be stepped down
at the bow and stern to a thickness of
four inches. Above this belt will be e
belt of lower easement armor of a uni
form thickness of inches. This
belt will extend from the forward to the
aft turret. There will be another or
upper belt of easement armor of a
thickness of six inches. This will pro-
tect the five-inch guns along the gun
deck. n
