THE MINING
 OF HARBORS

From the New York Evening Post.
 In every large town along our seaboard the question of submarine mining has late- ly sprung into such great prominence as to arouse popular interest in that branch of naval science-a branch hitherto ultouched by lay curiosity because of the forbidding veil of technicalities, as well as because of its apparent remoteness from our prac.ica al needs. Now that "the man in the streets'' finds the business or the pleasure of his daily life more or less limited by the car- pet of high explosives on his own harbor floor, he naturally regards high explosives so applied with new and increased re- spect, and would gladly abandon some of his old ignorance concerning them.
 'What are these submarine mines of ours?" he asks his official acquaintance. "How do they work, exactly, and just where have you put them2'
 To which the answer comes as bare and hazy generality with darkening of council. For the officials turned suddenly and prop erly cautious, are as chary of information

 For the operators station the two great requirements are a clear sweep oz vision over the mine-held and invisibility. A ht- tie cave dug in a hillside or embankment, and disguised with bushes, vines, or what ever Is the common foliage of the spot, Is the ideal arrangement; but if necessity forces the selection of flat and barren ground, 0 hut may be rendered inconspicu- ous by coat of paint of the color or the earth about it. Here the observer sits, ms glass trained on the two range puoys or hls special group of mines and his battery and firing-key within easy reach. As the enemy's ship or ships cross h1s slght-lihe' he presses the key, and In an almost lh- calculably small fraction of second lhe whole group of mines Is exploded 1ne Ia tai area of each individual mine or the ''obseryation'' type covers a circle sNty feel In diameter. Reckoning with the breadth of beam of the average warshlp as a factor it thence appears that the ser ies of six will clear as channel aDout izo feet broad of any vessels having the mls- fortune to be there.
 The "electro-contact" diners rom the observation mine, Tn that IL iS hiVohe plode on actual contact with the ship pot tom, not at some distance beneath. IL is used in deeper water than is the other va riety and is fitted with a much nleher charge since seventy-five pounds or gun cotton detonated against the hull or the strongest vessel built is quite suihelent to disable if not to destroy her. This mine like the species previously descrlpea, contained. in A convex-ended iron cylinder, its charge, as in the former case packed in A nest of copper boxes the central box holding the primer-tin with It's two oe- tonators and their electric wire connection. One "leg" of the wire necessary to com plete the firing circuit runs, however not directly to it's detonator, but to the top oi the mine as it lies afloat there entering. an npenious contrivance called a circuit closer. The mine cannot explode until the circuit-closer comes into action, and the circut-closer will act only when struck py the hull of ship or when dealt some cor responding blow.

in several connected groupe of three Each individual in each trio has it's own electric cable about 100 yards in length, the three cables converging at their lower ends to enter "disconnector box" The disconnec- tor in turn sends down a single 200-yard cable to a multiple-junction box" within which 1t meets similar cables from the disconnectors of all the other tros in the series, and with them is joined to a main cable running to the battery in the oper ator's station on shore. The operator has it in his power to put the whole series instantly out of play and to return 1t instantly to service; and by means of the disconnectors, any trio which, having been exploded, has become an encumbrance to. the rest, may be cut out of the circuit
 A ground mine, like the observation mine, Is laid in relatively shallow water a depth of fifty feet, by choice-and has a cable connection with an operators bat tery on shore. Attached by cable to the mine, and floating above it at such point as to be likely to be struck by any passing vessel, is buoy containing an electric ap- paratus with a circuit-closer When the operator turns a strong electric current into the main cable, the touch of ships hull on a buoy is sufficient to detonate the mine. This powerful force is put in ac- ton at night or at any time when the en- emy's ships alone are expected to be in tiie HdTDoT On all OtneF OccaSOnS the current is maintained at a very low ebb, when pressure on the buoy would not fire the mine but would merely telegraph a sgnal to the shore station, indicating to the observer there which particular buoy had been struck. The change from signal current to firing current may be made in an instant, so that in the event of a har- Dor engagement between friendly and hos tile fleets, Q home vessel may be allowed to pass unscathed over the mne while the enemys ship, touching the buoy i'm mediately afterwards, will be wrecked on the spot. The ground mine is not, however, dependent for its explosive power onI the collision of ship with the buoy; the shore operator may explode it at volition, when ever, in his opinion, occasion arises. But it Is always difficult to tell exactly what point on the range line crossing vessel occupies and for that reason the mines are laid in groups of three, all three to be fired simultaneously in case of Judgment action."

to friend as to foe. Precise knowledge of the defenses is jeaously limited to the in- eyitable few, and no man save the staff in charge has any right to possess it. Under these circumstances, perhaps the best step that we can take to satisfy our legitimate interest is to turn to England's recorded experiments and conclusions regarding sub- marine mining, and to guess from them what our own government has done in the present emergency
 In fortifying an harbor against attack by an enemy's fleet, the British engineers would use today submarine mines Of two general classes-the observation and the s.electro -conta ct''-both of wh c1 e so simply constructed that they may be roughly described without the use of tech- nical nomenclature.
 The observation mine, so called because It's action Is directed by an observer or ope- rator stationed on shore, is convex-endea cylinder of Staffordshire plate. three-six- teanths of an inch in thickness, measuring thirtv-four inches in depth and about tnir- ty-two inches dn diameter. Within the cyl inder and surrounded by an air-chamoer Is a core composed of twenty-two separate copper cases, containing in all 300 pounds of wet gun-cotton. The central case of the twenty-two is arranged to receive the .'primertin," little box holding two de- tonations, or fuses, embedded in dry gum cotton. from which electric wires pass to the insulator at the mouth of the mine.
 For harbor defense the royal engineers would lay observation mines in groups of at least six, placed in mathematically straight line at intervals of lSO feet, and preferably in about fifty feet of water. One main electric cable, starting from the op- erator's station on shore, would connect with and govern each mine of the six, reaching 1t by fork or branch running to its insulator. This main cable would be close to the harbor-bed but the mines themselves, whose buoyancy Is considera- ble, would float twelve feet or more above. each anchored by stout steel wire moor- Ing rope to a wrought-iron snker of 800 pounds weight, dsk-shaped, with con- cave lower surface to give the additional
