Excerpt from Naval Policy: With Some Account of the Warships of the Principal Powers Towards the end of January, 1896, there was issued - a year late - a Parliamentary Return of the naval strength of Great Britain and the other principal maritime Powers.

It is not necessary to reproduce it here, for one very good reason: that it can convey no information to anybody.
