Tho California 's specifications are the latest ideas in naval construction, largely the result of careful study of naval engagements in the hurope.ni war. The big ship has many features not to be found ou ships now in serv ice. The armoring of the vessel is planned to guard also against torpedo attacks and mines. Naval construe tors believe that the ship will be im pregnable against such attacks. The BUiicrdrcadnaught will be 024 foct long, !)li feet in width and 4" feet, 2 inches deep. At her mean draft of 30 feet, 3 inches, she will have a dis placement of 32..I00- tons and will ue capable of sustaining a speed of 21 knots nu hour for twelve continuous hours. The California's principal battery will be twelve 14 inch titty calibre breech loading rifles. These guns are to be of an exceptionally powerful new tvpe. Thev will be mounted in threes, in four center line turrets, which will be heavily armored. The remainder of the armament includes twenty-two five inch rnpid fire guns, lour siin merged torpedo tubes, four six pound ers (mainly for saluting), four 3 inch nnti- aircraft guns, two one pounder gnus tor snip s Dolus, a .i men miming piece and several. 30 calibre machine guns. The California's machinery is to be operated by electricity. This will be furnished ly niainmom gcucraium, driven hv oil burning turbines.
