people present, including the Secretaries of
the Saxr, Treasury and Interior Depart

directly beneath the bows of the cruiser
and the other on an adjoining whart. The
christening party, headed by Mr. Cramp,
Secretary Tracy and about 150 specially in
vited guests, made their way toward the
stand beneath the bows of the cruiser. The
other stand was crowded with about 5,000
people, and after those who had cards had
been admitted the gate were thrown open
and about 15,000 people in all were collected
to see the Xew York go off.
After Secretary Tracy, Miss Page and the
balance of the party had taken their places,
Constructor Jjevtim Xixon began to make
preparations lor tile launch. The sheering
that held the cruiser in share was knocked
away. Mr. Xixon gave a warning call to
Miss Page, the great steel hull trembled
lrom stem to stern, and then began to move
down the tallowy way. Just as the cruiser
started Miss Page struck the gayly rib
boned bottle she held in her hands against
the keel that was slipping by her. close
above her head, and as the wine flowed from
the broken bottle she cried out: "I christen
thee New York!"
Distinguished Visitors Present.

Sho Is u Commerce Destroyer.
Although essentially a commerce de
stroyer, the New York will be able to hold
her own with all but the heaviest line of
bittle snips and return shot for shot with
cm in action. The new cruiser is the
e iecial pride of Secretarv Tracy, and he
n.ts watched her rise lrom the ways with an
interest that no other -vessel in the navy has
excited in him. She will carry a battery of
C 8 inch breech loading rifles, 12 4-fnch
rapid firing guns, 8 6-pounder, 4 Gatlings
and 6 torpedo tubes Two of the Much
guns will be mounted inbsrbettc forward on
the upper deck, aud two in similar barbette
aft, while the remaining two will he carried
iu broadside amidships on the up).r deck.
Following are her principal dimensions:
Leneth on the water line. S80 feet C 5
inches; breadth of beam, C4 feet; mean
draught, 23 feet 3 5 inches displacement,
8,150 tons; maximum speed, 20 knots; sus
tained sea speed, 18.5 knots; complement
officers and men, 475; coal endurance (total
capacity), 13,000 miles. She w ill be 1,500
tons heavier than the Maine and 1,850 tons
heavier than the Texas. Compared with
English ships of the Agamemnon, Ajax and
"War Sprite class, the New York is faster
by three knots than the swiftest of these
vessels and her radius of action is C.000
miles greater. She hps the advantage also
in broadside and turret armor, which,
being of nickel steel, will offer greater re
sistance. Her Armor Is Amply Protective.
She will be a twin screw vessel propelled
bv four separate engines, each having a
power of 4,500 horses. The electric light
plant will hae a capacity ofl0,000amperes,
and will include 7,000 incandescent lights.
In addition there will be four search lights,
30 inches in diameter, all of which can be
controlled from the bridge and conning
tower. On the broadside the New York
will be protected by one partial belt of
armor, another of water excluding material,
and a complete protective deck. The pro
tective deck will be covered with two
courses of plating, having a thickness of 3
inches amidships and 2J inches forward
and aft. Amidships the slopes are covered
with an additional thickness of 3 inches,
nnd the entire space between this and the
skin of the ship is filled with cellulose to
exclude the water. In the wake of the
machinery spaces a belt of thin armor is
worked between the protective and berth
decks. The total thickness of metal on the
fcides throughout this space is 5 inches.
In addition to this protection the coal
will be stowed on the armor deck, forming
an addition j safeguard against serious dam
age near the water line. "" The barbettes are
ten inches thick and the conical revolving
shields on the gun seven inches. The slop
ing armor between the upper and gun decks
beneath the barbettes is five inches and the
ammunition tnbes below of the same thick
ness. In addition to the protective deck
the New York will have three other com
plete decks, a large flying deck, or bridge,
upon which all of her boats will be carried,
and two military masts, which will be fitted
with donble fighting tops for machine guns.
Having a free board of 20 feet from the
water to the upper deck she will be able to
fight her guns and maintain her speed iu
sea way that would render smaller ships
helpless.

Pianos and Organs.
Everybody who has a home wants one,
and will be interested in this advertisement,
whi'-h will tell you where to get the best for
the least money. First, there are hundreds
of pianos and organs that are made only to
sell. They look well and sound well when
new, but in a few months or years the glitter
is worn off and the tone is gone. To avoid
this, buy only pianos and organs that have
stood the test of time, and have won their
way into the musical and business world by
true merit. S. Hamilton's music house can
furnish you those instruments at cuch
prices and terms that all can buy. If you
are desiring a piano, cut thla out and bring
along, and if you purchase a piano it will
entitle you to railway fare, or write for
illustrated catalogue, price and terms to S.
Hamilton, 91 and 93 Fifth avenue, Pitts
ourg, Pa.
Give Fan Boy Now, Too.
Prices are tending upward. You will
never buy seal muffs, the real Alaska skin,

THAT CELEBRATED BANH.IHJPT CASE.
The Result Is Filling the -Public With a
Feeling of Pleasurable Delight.
It makes no difference what kind of lame
excuses certain outfitters can or will concoct
t6 make it appear that they can sell as
cheap as the celebrated bankrupt clothing
sale does, corner Libertv and Sixth avenue,
the public will not believe them, as they
well know the difference between words of
truth and exaggerating qualities. Conse
quently, if you want genuine bargains in
men's, "boys' and children's clothing patron
ire a firm that has been declared bankrupt,
and where you can bur tailor-made gar
ments at 25 cents on the dollar. Prices
arranged by court appraisers and creditors.
Advice is go at once, because the stock is
complete and as the demand is so very great
and the sale onljr last until the 27th day of
this month, it will be necessary to take ad
vantage ot the advice by going there at
once.
