The Navy Meyer, Governor Dix, Mayor
EGaynor and many other notables are cx-
pcctcd to be on hand to watch the most
,owcfful vessel in the United States
navy take her first plunge into the water.
The New York and her sister ship,
he Texas arc each 1900 tons heavier
than any other .warship that has ever
been launched in this country. The New
York is 6,l75 tons heavier than the bat

strrcted at the Brooklyn navy yard and
which was the biggest ship OF its class
anoat at the time OF her completion only

The battleship New York was author

were asked for, but later these were re-
ectcd and it was decided to build the

first division OF the Atlantic Fleet, OF
which she will probably be the flagship.
Not only in Size but in the callbre OF
tile guns at their main batteries were
tile New York and Texas designed TO
be the most formidable battleships ever
built. Up to The present time. the. ID
inch gun, which has not been used on
any of the newer ships of the navy, has
been the limit in calibrc of naval guns.
The New York and Texas, however,
will each carry ten ll-inch guns mount
ed two to a turret, and so arranged
all of them can be fred in a broadside,
or forward, or aft, at the same time.
The arrangement Of three turrets aft
and two forward Of the bridge is the
work of the Naval Construction Corps
of the United States navy. Great Brit
ain h1s followed this design in her new
dreadnatghts, and this is considered
one of the highest compliments ever
paid American designers and construct
ors.
The New York's engines will be Of
$4,000 horsepower, 5000 more than those
OF the Florida. If ne expectations tof
her designers are fulfilled she will be
able to maintain a speed of q knots

lie expansion, four cylinder reciprocating
engines.
The armor OF the new battleships will
be OF sufficient thickness for defense
against torpedo boat attacks, and there
will be strong btakheads as all addi-
+ional protection against mines and tor
pcdo explosions,

The New York and the Texas will be
OF the same type as the Two dread
thoughts Oklahoma and Nevada, which
have been authorized by congress. The
two last-named, however, will be about
ten feet longer and Of 500 tons greater
displacement than the New York and
Texas.
The launching of a big battlcship is an
important event in itself, but in the case
OF the New York the ceremony will be
more notable because the Navy Depart
ment will have demonstrated that it is
fully equipped and competent enough to
construct the largest battleships in its
own ship yards without assistance from,
private concerns. True, the progress
in the construction of the New York has
not been SO rapid as that on her sister
ship Texas, now nearing complication
at Newport News. but the fault has not
been with the officials or workmen at
the Brooklyn navy yard. After the keel
of the New York was laid down the
work on the ship was stopped for a
while by Secretary Meyer Suntilfi 1T could
bc, surely asccrtaincd that the $6,OQO.O99
provided by congress would be sufficient
to cover the expense.
