The largest battle-ship of our navy
Caption: “Illinois,” the most powerful type of battle-ship in the United States (just launched at Newport News), as she will appear when under way. One thousand tons larger than the “Oregon” and “Iowa,” heretofore our greatest battle-ships, and is a sister-ship of the “Alabama” and “Wisconsin,” now being built.
