After varled and lengthy negotiations the con- tract for steamers to accomplish this service was sigued on July 2nd, 1889, and passed the House of Commons In August following. The speed of the vessels was to be 17 knots on the measured mile, and 16 knots at sea, and the vessels were to be specially constructed to carry troops and guns The three vessels now building by the Naval Con- struction and Armaments Co., Ltd., at Barrow- in-Furness, are contracted to do 18 knots on the measured mile, and 163 knots on a 400 miles sea trial. Notwithstanding the enhanced speed implied in these conditions it is confidently anti- cipated that the actual results will falál," If not exceed, requirements,
In the design of these vessels the greatest possible attention has been paid to strength, sub-division, and general means of safety: no expense being spared by the Canadian Pacific Co. or by the building firm, to make the vessels in every respect equal to the very finest vessels aloat. Their engines will indicate about 10,006 H.P., and they are to be propelled by twin. screws, the engine-room being divided by a fore-and-aft bulkhead, and the propeller or tail-end shaft, being carried within the structure of the bull to the very extremity, thus doing away with the external support known as the "A" bracket principle. The hull is sub-divided by eleven transverse water-tight bulkheads, all reaching to the upper deck. Of these, three forward and three alt are without doors of any kind, while the remaining five have specially constructed watertight doors, with patent releasing apparatus. The four boilers supplying the engines with steam are placed in two com- partments divided by a cross bunker, and are fully protected by wing bulkheads and side bunkers. Arrangement is also made for the protection of the engines by coal in the event of the vessels being taken up as armed cruisers."
The dimensions of the vessels are:-Length, between perpendiculars, 48 feet breadth, moulded, 5x feet; depth; moulded, 30 fest i ton- Dago, },700 sons gross. They are lightly rigged
