WASHINGTON, March 81, 1915.

WASHINGTON, March Il, lSl5.
The Marine RailtcGn in Mr. X. II. Lambcll' S
salp-yard, at the steamboat wharf, was found
available, this morning, to the United States,
IN very singular yet satisfactory manner. 1t
appears that the iron steamer Water Witch,
Omit on the plan Of Hunters submerged pro-
pellers,) that was launched at our Navy Yard,
about week ago, had got a rope so cntangled
about her wheel and under water, that it was
found impractcable at the Navy Yard to extri-
cate it. Hence it was found necessary to have
ihe Water Witch lifted entirely out of the wa
Ter; and as there was neither a marine railway
nor cry dock at our Navy Yard, the iron
steamer must have been sent TO Portsmouth,
Va. But it was suggested to Commandant
hulick, that Mr. Lambcl could probably, by
means Of his railway, take the iron steamer out
Of water, and Mr. Lambel having undertaken,
at the request Of Captain Aulick, to make the
experiment, it was made most successfully this
morning, by Mr.. Lambel. The Water Witch,
n the course of two hours and half, was
placed on the railway, and the rope was then
Immediately removed by Mossrs. Pickering &
Ellis, aided by a number of hands from the
Navy Yard. The experiment was quite sue
cesstul. Tomorrow morning, at 10 O'clock
understand the Water Witch will be launched
from Mr.. Lambell's wharf; and presume that
number OF our citizens will avail themselves
OF the opportunity to witness the launch.

place. Major holland, the Commissioner of
Public Buildings, has also been removed
