ton in German Waters.
HAMBURG AMERICAN LINER
Successfully Launched, the
Ocean Monster Is Now Re
ceiving Finishing Touches.

The question has been raised especially
since the Titanic disaster. whether the de-
velopment OF monster steamships is jusd-
fed by the needs Of the worlds CONNER
cial requirements, and not merely to justify
their projectors desire TO have an advan-
tage over competitors
In the presence of the Emperor Of Ger
many and a notable gathering, the steam
ship Imperator, of the Hamburg American
Line was successfully launched recently at
Hamburg. The new liner. which estah-
fishes new standards for size, luxury and
safety at sea, will enter the North Atlantic
service early next year. The Imperators
length of 900 feet and her tonnage OF 5000
render her the largest ship in the world.
She is TO be followed by two sister ships
of about the same size.
The construction Of the Imperator and
her equipment with safety devices more
than conform 10 the German laws, which
are the most rigid in the world. She has,
been built with a double bottom extending
her entire length In addition she will have
coal bunkers at the sides, practically CIV
ing her a double skin, rendering her ship
within a ship. The Imperator is also
equipped with many transverse bulkheads,
whose doors are controlled by hydraulic
power from the bridge and can be closed
simultaneously within a few seconds ny
touching a lever. A complete system OF
electrical communication extends through
out the ship, thus placing the officer On
the bridge in instant control with any part
Of the ship. She will carry sufficient life

IMPERAToR's GREAT SIZE.

The Imperator is one Of the largest OBJ
tects ever constructed by the hands OF
man. Were IL possible to set her down be-
side the Capitol at Washington 1t would
be found that she was l60 feet longer than
that immense building The Washington
Monument, again. has often been used as
a standard Of comparison. The Imperator's
length is 328 feet greater than the height
OF the highest monument in the world. II
we take the highest buildings in New YORK
for comparison, the contrast is equally
startling
Safety of ocean travel is not diminished,
according to the owners Of the steamship
1mperatof, by the construction Of ships OF
large dimensions, but, on the contrary, 1t
Is, they maintain, largely increased
Professor Pagee, OF the Germanic Lloyds,
states that safety OF travel at sea increases
with the size of the ships. He undertakes
TO demonstrate IN detail why the stability
and reserve buoyancy of the large ship
exceed that Of the smaller vessel. The
ability Of the large ship TO withstand the
effects OF sea and wind are. II is pointed
out, well known. The extreme steadiness
OF the large ship even in rough sea mas
been looked upon as a boon TO those pas
sengers susceptible 10 seasickness.
But the most vital consideration in refer
enee to construction. materials and methods
OF securing safety as laid down by the
Highest authorities. such as the Germanic
Loyds. the immigration authorities and
other bodies. is, according to the Ham
burg-American officials. as thoroughly and
conscientiously applied In the large vessel
as In her small sister, with the additional
advantage that in the large vessel these
measures can be carried out In stronger
ana even more satisfactory way.
The Imperator's length is almost double
That Of Germany's largest warship. Her
beam Is So feet. and her depth 62 feet.
The boat deck will be 100 feet, and trucks
OF the mast 24s feet above the keel, ex-
ceeding that OF the tallest sailing vessel
Anoat. The tunnels will be SO feet long and
me oval openings will measure 20 feet by
" feet. The rudder alone weighs 80 tons.
The staireases, passageways, decks. and
