Eloctric Torpedo Boats.

Among the advantages to be looked
for in electric torpedo boats are the
lack of flaming tunnels and noisy ma
ch;nerv to give notice OF approach,
freedom of risk from cut steam pipes
or wrecked boilers, diminished upper
works to serve as target and ease
and rapidity of manipulation by the
commander with one hand on the con,
tro]ler. A writer in the Electrical
World suggests the possibility of prl-
marv batteries. For 140-foot boat
with displacement of ITO tons, en-
oines of 1000 horsepower are neces'
