One Officer Foresees 100 New Vessels For Navy
A Philadelphia inspector at the Duquesne Hotel argues Congress will fund about a hundred new warships as the United States Navy struggles to recruit and man vessels.

The armor plates for 18 inch guns are described, with plates about 16 by 7 feet and 18 inches thick at the top tapering to eight inches at the bottom, each plate weighing about 53.8 tons.
