The armament has not been decid ed upon but it probably will be equal or greater than that of present day dreadnoughts. It is understood that some officers believe each ship should carry twelve 14-inch rifles, but it is possible that a lesser num ber of guns may be mounted, or sthat the new 16-inch rifle, the largestVa val gun yet developed, may be used. In that case probably only 6 or 8 big guns would be mounted. All the items of the forthcoming navy estimates were- considered at today's conferences.
