SUBMARINE BOAT TESTED.
Newspaper Men Lunch at the Bottom Of
the Pntapsco River.

BALTIMORE. Dec. 1.-THE Lake sub
marine boat Argonaut. built for the
purpose Of exploring the bottoms OF riv~
ers, lakes and other bodies Of water
and doing all manner of submarine
work, was given her first public trial
yesterday. The place selected was Ferry
bar, just outside OF Baltimore, in the
Patapsco river.
A half dozen newspaper men entered
the strange craft. which was then sub
merged in about 20 feet Of water. re-
naming under the surface about an
hour and half, during which time the
workings of the boat were explained TO
them, after which submarine luncheon
was indulged in.
The boat was propelled along the bot
tom OF the river by means of auxiliary
wheels at a speed greater than that
usually attained by a boat upon the
surface. The new craft is apparently
a complete success and one OF the won
ders of the age.

HELD BY ENGLAND?
Britain Said to Have Seized
Clipperton Island.
MEXICO IS NOW INVESTIGATING.
The Mexican Herald EditorialIy Warns

VIII BE Destroyed.

CITY OF MEXICO, Dec 17.-Some.
time ago, when it was rumored that a.
British warship had seized Clipperton
island, the local papers took the mat
ter up, and there was some agitation
over the reported forcible occupation of
Mexican soil. The foreign relations de-
partment asked the war department to
send an expedition to the island to in
vestigate if the British really had TAX
en- possession. -Four days ago the cor
vette El Democratic, Captain Teofolio
Genesta, left Mazatlan for the island
Should it prove true that the island
which Mexico claims as belonging TO
her has been seized by the British, the
matter viii be taken up automatically
for the purpose Of recovering the terri
tory. Mexico will formally request the
restoration Of the island.
No one here expects any serious diff
ficulty over the matter. and there is as
yet no definite official information in
possession Of the government regarding
the alleged seizure of Chpperton. At
the foreign relations department it Is
said that the object of the expedition
was not warlike, but merely to ascer-
tain the true condition of affairs. The
same thing was said at the war depart
AANAt- LAtAt - Ao 0AHlultluut ONcT Ine
matter here.
The newspapers. however, are likely
to make much of the seizure If II turns
out to be fact. for there is a sentl-
ment among the> people that Eng
land unjustly acquired Belize, or Brit
ish Honduras, from this country.
The Mexican Herald, editorially, says:
European nations are looking forward
to the time when by weakness Of the
great republic. champion of the Monroe
doctrine, they may proceed under one
pretext or another to carve up South
and Central America. If the American
people allow themselves to be beguiled
Into unpreparedness for war, they will
assuredly be caught all unready by
vigilant Europe and their sea power
destroyed, whereupon Latin America
will be seized as a fox does a fat capon."
The same paper remarks that the Diaz
doctrine, which contemplates the even
tual freeing Of the new world from ev-
cry trace of European control, Is much
broader than the Monroe doctrine and
viii become a principle OF action in the
twentieth century.
