The New Allan Liners " Alsatian " & " Calgarian."
18,000 Tons Register. 18 To 20 Knots Speed,
In pursuance of their traditional policy of giving the traveling public the best which lies within their power, the Directors of the Allan Line are now having constructed on the Clyde two new steamers -- to be named the Alsatian" and —Calgarian which are intended to represent in comfort, convenience and spaciousness the apex of the builder's art.
These steamers will be of about 18,000 tons gross register, and therefore the largest liners sailing between this country and the Dominion of Canada. They will be driven by the latest type of turbine engines, operating four screws, giving them a speed of 18 to 20 knots. The distribution of the power over four separate shafts reduces the vibration to such a degree as to make it almost imperceptible.
The passenger appointments of the steamers will embody every up-to-date device for the enjoyment of ocean travel, and they will be fitted with the most perfect system of Heating and Ventilation. The fittings of the general rooms, which will occupy the entire structure on A Deck, will harmoniously blend luxury and comfort, the decorations being entrusted to firms whose names are world-famous.
The public rooms will comprise the Lounge, Library and Reading Room, the Card Room, and the Smoking Room. On the Upper Promenade Deck, there will be a Cafe, Smoking Room, and Gymnasium. The Promenade Decks—which will constitute a special feature of the ships—are of great length and spaciousness, with extensive closed-in Promenade for recreation in all kinds of weather. The steamers will carry 250 first class, 500 second class, and 1,000 third class Passengers.
Externally the " Alsatian " and " Calgarian " will maintain the Allan " reputation for beauty and grace of design. They will be fitted with two pole masts and two funnels, and a striking feature in their appearance will be the " cruiser " stern, hitherto peculiar to warships.
Safety is, of course, the paramount consideration and the application of the latest design in ship construction and the adoption of the most modern equipment will be utilized to ensure this, including wireless telegraphy and the latest submarine signaling apparatus.
It is anticipated that the new steamers will be ready this Autumn.
No effort will be spared by all concerned to make the steamers popular with all classes of Passengers, and it is expected they will be special favorites with ocean travelers from the first voyage.
