The first keel plate of the new British battleship Orion, of tli© improved Dreadnought type, which, it is believed, will have a displacement of 23,000 tons and be aimed with 13in. guns as main armament, was laid down at Portsmouth Dockyard on November 29. The vessel -has been ordered to be ready for sea within two years. The “Engineer” (London) thinks that the ships for the new Chinese navy, which are looked for to be built in about four years’ time, will, on account- of propinquity, b© constructed in Japanese yards. In addition to licr own Imperial dockyards, Japan is making rapid advances with private, yards. These have constructed destroyers and torpedo boats, not only for the Imperial Government, but also for Siam, and a large- series of gunboats for the Chinese navy.
