four new battle cruisers, of the 1
proved Hood type. According to the
inrormatlon which has reached here,
these vessels will be superior to the
six battle cruisers which the Ameri

1916 program. In tonnage, length,

These Improved Hoods are to
have a displacement of more than
45,000 tons, and maybe 47,000 or
48,000 tons. They will be 900 feet
long. The guns of these vessels will
be the same as on tho American
cruisers now building, 16-inch, but
ths British cruisers probably will
have ten or twelve of these power
ful guns, while our shlpa have only
eight 16-Inch, 60 caliber guns.
The American cruisers will be su

33 V, knots, while, according to the
advices reaching hero, the British
ships are to have a speed of 31 or
32 knots. The American cruisers
have a displacement of 43,500 tons,
and are to be 874 feet long.
Japan now boasts of the largest

Negate. The Negato has a tonnage
