against the Wanamaker column while the
nation would be called upon to mourn
the loss OF many good men, the insurance
companies would be called upon to pay out
about $3 ,OOO, 900. Some time ago 1t was stated
that the leading life insurance companies
proposed equipping a magnificent SANTA
rum to which their heavy policy holders
with consumptive tendencies should be sent
and cared for. 1t was argued that to keep
these heavily insured gentlemen alive long
enough to pay a few additional premiums
would make the venture paying invest
ment. Perhaps ut this time the same in
surance companies will pool their Issues
and provide the wanamaker soldiers with
bulletproof suits and asbest rs ovcrcoats.

HOLLAND A HAPPY MAN.
His Submarine Torpedo Boat A
Assured Success.


Assured Success.
PERTH AMBOY. Nj. April 22-Inventor
John p. Holland is happy man. He has
demonstrated the ability Of his boat the
Holland, to make an extended trip under
water. The boat had already made short
dives. but had never been under water for
more than a minute or two ut IL time, until
late last week. or Old Orchard shoai light,
the Holland went down until there was
between three and four fathoms Of water
over her deck. and then for IL miau-
ties scudded along at full speed. nearly
10 knots an hour. The boat made three
dives. and when the inventor came 10
the surface after the last one he de-
clared himself better satisfied than ever that
his submarine wonder is a success. 1t has
hitherto been impossible to adjust all the
machinery necessarily used in controlling
the boat under water. The run OF IL minutes
allowed time to examine every detail and
test every part of the mechanism. Mr.. Hol-
land unhestatingly declared himself fully
satisfied. He said he would be willing. ii
necessary, to take the boat anywhere, and

ship Oregon. He Is man Of great ability

be sure Of her fulfilling all that has been
claimed for her. Part of the time the Hol-
land was under water she was scraping bot
tom. but the pressure gauge in cunning
tower showed that ut times there was
fully % feet of water over tower.
The flag poles were removed and the
boat was in actual fighting order. with
nothing In sight above her deck but ner
tower and a four-inch brass tube into which
the exhaust OF the gasoene engine which
propelled the boat on the surface is now
discharged. This tube which gives the boat
an odd appearance. rises four feet above the
deck just abaft the tower. Those on thetug
were alarmed by the failure of the Holland
to come to the surface during her longest
trip under water, and even engineer Morris
began to look very much puzzled, but when
she again appeared. fully u mile and half
from where she went down. the doubtful
looks changed to smiles, and the tug hur-
ried to the little boat, which lay mOtionless
on the water. 1t took the tug IL minutes to
reach the Holland.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April 22-Ex-Post-
aster-General John Wanamaker has sent
this telegram to Washington:
ITO the Honorable the Secretary of War:
Though opposed to arunless honorably
unavoidable, in the event OF its coming l
will, under your instructions, raise q regi-
ment Of Pennsylvanians for military duty
and 60 with them for service.
John WANAMAKER.'
Mr.. Wanamaker, after sending his offer
to the secretary OF war, posted In his
Philadelphia store n notice telling his 1900
employees that all men joining the army in
case OF war would find their positions open
for them on their return, their salaries going
on as usual during their absence. The no.
tice also stated that an insurance Of $1,000
would be placed on the life OF every employee
who served. II any regiment fighting
against the Spaniards would more than any
other carry into battle the prayers of the life
insurance companies 1t would be the one
led by Mr.. Wanamaker. who Is the heaviest
insured man in the United States. 1t is also
probable that the amount Of insurance car
ried by his men would be greater than In any
other company engaged in the service.
Mr.. Wanamaker carries insurance on his
life aggregating $l,6O0,00O and has
policies In almost every company in Eu-
rope and this country. Most OF the
American insurance companies have an
nounced their Willingness to allow their
policy holders to engage in military serv-
Ice without any extra charge, but 1t is
most likely that all OF Mr.. Wanamaker's
policies are exempt by reason OF being in
force for more than three years. 1t is only
natural that his employees, whom he would
insure, would enlist in his company, 80
that II the fortunes Of war should go
