Jf^ELVE-MILE RANGE OVER WHICH OUR NEW DREADNOUGHT COULD
SCATTER DEATH AND DESTRUCTION.
Besides demonstrating last week, by attaining a speed of 21.98 knots, that she is the fastest first class battleship ever made, the Delaware has the most powerful battery in the serv.ce. From
each of her ten 12-inch guns of the largest type she can throw a shell weighing 870 pounds to a distance of twelve miles, or from below the Narrows, down the Bay, into City Hail Par!*
ard a litt'e beyond. After traversing 9,000 yards these shells can still penetrate eleven inches of solid steel.
