THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH. WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 18921 .OUR CRACK CRUISER Yclept the Pirate, Kow- Formally Christened the Columbia, by THE VICE PRESIDENT'S DAUGHTER. The Most Formidable Fiehter of Merchant Ships Is Launched. IN INNOVATION IN NATAL WAEFAEB Philadelphia, July 26. Under a son the intensity of whose rays seemed to make her sides vibrate, Cruiser No. 12, or, as the vessel has been popularly known, the "Pirate," was launched here this afternoon from Cramp's shipyard, and christened the "Columbia" by Miss Edith Morton, the daughter of Vice President Morton, In consideration of the time of year, and with a view to just snch weather as the country is suffering under now, the Messrs. Cramp decided some time ago not to issue any invitations to the launch to-day, and in consequence there was a marked difference in the size of the crowd in comparison with that of previous launchings at the Cramps' yards. "Launching Day" at Cramps' is always observed as a holiday, and with the exception of the gang of men at work pre paring the cruiser for her passage down the ways, the army of loboreri that early throng the yard were absent this morning. The business of getting the cruiser ready for her dip into the river was not an envia ble one. The sun shone with a tropical-intensity, and the ships, standing in their stocks, and the iron lying around the yard, seemed to act as a magnet to draw its full rays down upon the panting, perspiring men who were"standing under it. The DUttncntshPd Porsons Present. Although the launch was not to take place until 4Vclock, by 1 o'clock men and women had begun to gather around the gates of the yard. At 3 o'clock, when the gates were thrown open, the crowd had in creased to about 4,000 people, and this num ber was doubled by the time set for the . launch. Secretary of the Navy Tracy, Vice Presi dent Morton, Assistant Secretary of the Xavy Soley, Commander John Soley, Con gressman John R. Pellows, Commander Allibon, United States Senator Chilton and Assistant Secretary of State Guninell reached this city at 1 o'clock from Wash ington. Mrs. Morton and her two daughters, Miss Edith and Helen Morton, arrived at 1:30 o'clock from New York. The two parties were met at the station by Henry Cramp, and taken in carriages to the ship yard. The distinguished party reached the yard about 3:30. "The Miss Mortons were presented with a bouquet upon their arrival, and then the entire company was escorted to the christening stand beneath the bows of the awaiting cruiser. The great length of the cruiser was es pecially noticeable as she hung out over the river, and in comparison to her the carovels of Columbus would hardly have served for lone boats. The Ceremony of the Xiannchlng. While the .christening party had been taking their stand upon the platform, the buy workmen below the keel were pre paring her for her journev down the ways. The sheetings were struck down and tim bers sawed through. At 3:50 the crashing sound of breaking planks was heard, and Miss E lith Morton was handed the bottle of champague and told to prepare herself to break it as soon as the cruiser started. The noise of the crack ing wood ceased, and immediately the cruiser started on her downward sweep to ward the river. As the vessel began to gather headway, Miss Morton crushed the bottle against the keel and said, "I chris ten thee Columbia." The cheers of the crowd and the tooting ,of whistles greeted the "Columbia" as-ihe passed from the ways and sat npon the surface of the water as true as the spirits in a level. After the launch a luncheon was served to Secretary Tracy and Vice Presi dent Morton's party, at the conclusion of which they were driven to the railroad station and returned to Washington. A Description of the Destroyer. The cruiser launched to-day Is essentially a commerce destroyer and not a fighting vessel, within the accepted meaning of the tei m. Her designers drew their plans with two main objects in view speed and coal carrying capacity. To obtain these the cruiser was riven a tonnage of 7.500 tons, far greater than would be necessary in a fighting vessel of the same dimensions. Her lines are finer than those ot the great trans atlantic passenger greyhounds, which, for stability, are requited to have much greater beam. The dimensions of the cruiser are 400 feet in length on the load water line, 5S feet beam and 24 feet draught. The contract callsfora speed of 22 knots an hour on the trial trip, tailing which the builders are liable to a money penalty or the absolute re jection of the vessel by the Government. Some idea of the speed that will be re quired of the cruiser may be obtained by comparing it with the championship record of 21.06 knots for an hour, held by the steam ship Teutonie. For every quarter knpt of speed oDtalned over the contract limitations the Cramp Company will receive a bonus of $50,000. A novelty in marine architecture will be the three screws of the vessel. The three screws aie an idea of Chief Engineer MoI ville. The Chief Engineer believes that oy the use of the three screws the tremendous strain to which the shafts of a twin-screw steamship are subjected will be divided, and so lessened, and the liability of a breakdown greatly reduced. The Triple Screw Experiment. The use of three screws is in the nature of an experiment. At trials In France the cen ter screw was fonnd to have only a minimum propelling power. At the French trials, however, the three screws occupied the same vertical plane. To overcome this difficulty mid to net the maximum amonnt of power from each screw. Mr. Melville has placed the side screws 15 feet forward and above the centre one. so that the water flowinc from them does not interfere with the water flowing into the periphery of the center set ew. To obtain the speed of 22 knots an hour the cruiser's ten boilers are expected to develop 20,500 horse-poner. The hnnkers of the ves sel will be sreater in capacity than any steamship or naval vessel in the world. When full they will hold 2.001 tons of coal, and at a rate of 10 knots an hour the crniser will be able to steam 24,240 knots, or nearly around the woild, without recoaling. The English crniser Blake, which is recognized as the finest naval vessel afloat, can carrv only coal enough to steam 15,000 knots with out replenishing. The vital portions of the cruiser will be protected by an armored deck, 4 inohes thick on the slope and 2 inches on the fiat. The bunkers not used tur coal will be filled with a patent substance of such solidity as to lorm a wall five feet thick, having all the advantages of an inner and supplemental armor. The Gnns the Cruiser Will Carry. The armament of the vessel wilt consist of one eight-inch gun as a bow chaser, four six-Inch brccch-loading rifles, eight four inch breech-loading rifles, 12 rapid firing slx pounders, six tapid firing one-pounders, two machine suns, one field gun and six torpedo tubes. No big guns will be carried, as the object of the cruiser will be to concentrate as rapid a fire as possible upon an enemy. The cruiser is to be leadyfor service by October 1, 1893. The hid of the Cramps for her construction was $2 725,000 and the arma ments and equipments will bring the cost up to about $3,200,000. It was stipulated in the contract that the entire vessel, in all its parts, should be of domestic manufacture. noitsroKD's acid pho.phate IHnkes Delicious Lemonade.

Allegheny's Citizens Boggest How to Beautify the City Boulevard System Advised Mayor Kennedy's Flan Has Started the People Thinking Congrat ulatory Letters Received. Beautifying the city is the subject upper most in the public mind at present in Allegheny and some of the heaviest prop erty owners there are suggesting desirable features to Mayor Kennedy. The idea of rebuilding the streets by in creasing the bonded indebtedness, as pro posed by Mayor Kennedy, has started this train of thought Asa result the answers to the propositions which were sent out a few days ago by Allegheny's chiet official are ac companied by suggestions of more or less value. Nearly half a hundred property owners of Allegheny have sent in comuni cations Indorsing the plan as outlined in the circular. Messrs. Boggs & Buhl, the heaviest tax payers in the city, yesterday sent a reply to the Mayor's question. Alter indorsing the plan, and giving an illustration of the method of tax increase, they suggest the purchase of a large plat of ground in the suburbs for a park site, and advise the con struction of a boulevard to further the beaut v of the city. The necessity of a park in Allegheny, the gentlemen go on to say, is unquestioned. The great benefit the city parks ihave already proven to the people of Allegheny is a source of pride and pleasure. By the proper expenditure of money an other park, that would be farther away from the busy traffic of the city, could be laid out, and this, witli a good boulevard system, wonld add to Allegheny's reputation for beauty. The suggestion meets with the hearty ap proval of the Mayor, although he is inclined to hear from more citizens upon the street improvement question before suggesting anything more. W. J. Beckf eld most aptly said: 'If we do not wish to all so far behind our sister city, Pittsburg, that she will attempt to take us in as a suburb, we had better take some immediate action regarding our streets." Others harp upon the possibility of a big steal by unscrupulous contracts. The Mayor s'desk was fairly littered with these letters yesterday afternoon and the official plodded through them with a smile, despite the heat, for every one of them was congratulatory. PATTEBH HAKEBS SWERVE. Thry Meet, Organize and Promise Alle giance to the People's Party. Sixty odd pattern makers organized last night as the first People's party club in Allegheny county, and were officially ac cepted by representatives from the Ex ecutive Committee. The meeting was held in Pattern Makers' Hall, Moorehead building, and .addresses were made by Committeemen Burrows, of the People's party, and various members of the Pattern Makers' Association. Reso lutions were adopted by which all con nections with other political parties were severed and allegiance was promised, financially, by voice and by vote, the People's party. This is thought to argue well for a large attendance at the county convention to' be held in Curry's University Hall, Satur day, July 30. Girls Take Boys Places. At McKeesport the large new tin plate mill of the United States Iron and Tin Plate Company was put in operation yester day, employing 500 men. In putting the new mill in operation the company has put girlB to work in polishing the bright tin. It has always been done by boy. The company will at once add two large pud ling furnaces to those in use. Three Killed in Fighting a Horse Thief. Louisville, July 26.
