ANNIVERSARY OF
GREAT EASTERN

The huge steamship Great Eastern,
at that time by far the largest vessel
ever built, left England for New
York on her first Atlantic voyage fif-
ty-eight years ago yesterday, June II,
1860. From the first her career was
unfortunate the launching alone cost
ing 100000. After several unre-
munerative trips to New York she
was employed as a troopship, and
then as a cable-laying vessel. Various
attempts were afterward made to
utilize her, but at last she came to be
a mere holiday spectacle, and in 1883
she was broken up. Experts declar-
ed that the experience with the Great
Eastern conclusively proved that sucY.
gigantic steamships were failures!
The length of the Great Eastern was
ESQ feet, while the Lusitania was 100
feet; the former Hamburg American
liner Imperator, now in the service of
Uncle Sam as the Liviathan, is 900
feet.
