STEAMER BULGARIA.
The Vessel Thought to Have Gone
Down Safe in Port.

PONTA DEL GADA, Feb. "a. = The
Hamburg American Line steamer Bull
garia, Captain Schmidt, from New
York on January 2Sth for Hamburg,
previously reported in great distress by
the tank steamer Weehawken 800 miles
from the Azores Islands, entered this
port this morning under her own steam,
and reported all we'll on board.
The following details regarding her
experiences at sea have been obtained
by the correspondent of the Associated
Press: Subsequent to the departure OF
Second Mate G. Schargs and three 9th
ers of the crew who were picked up at
sea by the British steamship Victoria
and landed at Baltimore, the weather
became worse, and salvage operations
had to be abandoned. All day and
night the crew and passengers of the
Bulgaria jettisoned cargo, until Feb
ruary It'll. During the afternoon of
February 7th William Koenig, sailor,
jumped overheard and was never seen
again.
The weather OF the morning of Feb
ruary Sth is described as fearful, and
there were six or seven feet of water
in the hold. On the morning of Feb
ruary 9th the weather became calnl
and 1O7 dead horses were thrown over
board from the steamer.
The swell was very high until Febru-
airy 10th By that time number 4
hold, which was full of grain, had four
teen feet C water in it and the pumps
were foul and unable to work.
Stormy weather recommended on the
afternoon of February 18th and lasted
until February 18th, when the Clyde
STEAMER Antillian, Captain Fest from
Liverpool on February 4th for New Or
leans appeared. The commander of
the Bulgaria asked the Captain of the
Antillian to take the disabled steamer
in tow. This the commander of the
Antillian tried to do, and hawser was
made fast between the two steamers
between { and 8 O'Clock that morning,
but the hawser was carried away. The
Antillian succeeded in again taking the
Bulgaria in tow, but once more the
hawser carried away. The Antillian
stood by the Bulgaria until the morn
ing of February 10Th, when she pro-
ceeded on her voyage.
In the meantime the crew of the Bull
garia had been working necessarily IN
efforts to repair the disa bled steamer
BY noon of February 22d, she had made

The French Submarine Boats.

The Directors of the "Matin'' and
Temps" (of Paris) would perhaps not
take it as a compliment if they were
to be credited with a guileless ignor-
ance of not very ancient naval history
1t may, however, be pointed out that
they and their contemporary the
'Moniteur de la F1otte,'' have omitted
to remind their readers that the case
of the submarine boat Gustave Zade
proposed public subscription and alb
is an almost exact reproduction of the
case of the Spanish boat Peral
The keel of the latter was laid on
October %, 1887. She was launched on
September 8, 1883. She was fitted with
twin screws, an electric motor and
edo-discharging apparatus. When
immersed only her Flagstaff showed
above water She went through her
trials, like the Gustave Zede, success
fully, and proceeded to sea. Whereas,
in 1899 the Gustave Zede made only
sham torpedo attacks on a battleship
the Peral actually torpedoed and blew
up an oil hulk. There was chorus of
favorable comment from the naval ex-
perts of the Continental press; a pub
lie subscription was started in Spain,
and then the whole affair was so COM
pletely forgotten that your Paris con-
temporaries are able to count with con-
fidence on their readers being quite I'M
aware that the Gustave Zede had c
predecessor. 1t would, perhaps, be
considered unkind to inquire as to the
fate of the once much-vaunted Goubet
and Gymnote.
Possibly the Narval, designed ''for Of
fense,' may. when tried, give results
tending to make the advocates of
above-water navies tremble, as it is
expected that she and her consorts
will realize Admiral Aube's theory If
