FRANCES SUBMARINE BOAT
TIE GUSTATE ZEDB A SUCCESS, SAYS
MINISTER LOCKROT.

He Describes 1t as n New and Destructive
Weapon of Terrible Po~wer-ResuIts of
the Tests-Rearrangement of the French
squadrons Getting Ready for War.
Special Gable De,pdtch to THE srS.
PARIS. March I'm. Lockroy. Minister OF
Marine. said. in supporting the navy es-
Inmates In the Chamber OF Deputies to-
day. that France could not have SO big
a fleet as England's. as we'll as an army SO
strong numerically as Germany's. but she was
bound to undertake the necessary expenses to
defend her coasts and colonies. The Govern
ment. therefore. acted as II war was imminent
tomorrow. This was the best way to main
tain peace.
NJ. Lockroy said that the west and south
coasts OF France and the coast Of Algeria had
been fortified. The country had also made a
decisive advance in the matter of submarine
navigation. Dwelling on this subject. he said:
I'VE now possess a remarkable engine DIVA
in the form OF a submarine boat that Is capa-
BILE OF real service. The experiments with the
Gustave Zede have been conclusive. She not
only succeeded in torpedoing an ironclad at a
distance of 400 metres. but displayed good sea-
going qualities. She made the trip from Tou-
Ion to Marseilles in very rough weather.
THE vessel had only one great fault. She
was blind and unmanageable at a certain dis
lance below the surface. but this had been
remedied. The boat had been fitted with a
coming apparatus. which allowed her to
be steered without coming to the surface. and
enabled her to perceive enemies and strike
them with accurate aim. France thus has in
her hands a new and destructive weapon Of
terrible power"
This official declaration. which confirmed the
most sanguine unofficial statements that have
been published concerning tho Xede. evoked
loud applause.
NJ. Lockroy gave the details OF the new
naval arrangements by which France will
maintain fifteen ironclads in the Med
iterranean. where Great Britain has only
ten. He said that the squadrons in dis
tant seas had been remodelled. and the
obsolete vessels replaced by modern ships.
Those In far Eastern waters were all modern.
The Atlantic and Newfoundland divisions
would shortly consist Of none but modern YES
sells.
The personnel OF the coast batteries. which
recently was scarcely adequate to man one
third Of the batteries. was now sufficiently
large to allow every gun to be manned.

to bring all the ballots cast at the No
Vember election to Helena, to be count
ed by the senate. To-day Hoffman in
troduced a carefully prepared resolu-
ton directing that the ballots cast in
certain precincts where Geger claims
to have got the worst of it in the count
be brought. Hoffman said these We're
the only precincts in dispute and there
was no need counting all the ballots
cast in the county. Stanton moved to
lay the resolution on the table, arguing
that it was contrary to custom and to
reason to recount only a portion of the
ballots. Clark, chairman of the COM
mittee on elections, raised the point of
order that Hoffman's resolution was out
OF order, being in contradiction of the
report of the committee adopted yes
-terday President Spriggs ruled that
the point of order was not well taken.
Stanton,s motion to table resulted in a
tie, 10 to 10, Whiteside not voting and
three senators being absent. The vote
disclosed that the Clark democrats and
the republicans were standing together.
To break the tie, Whiteside finally voted
against Stanton's motion to table Then
he moved to amend the resolution so as
to include all the ballots cast in Flat
head county, and the amendment car
ried. The recount will be made on the
afternoon of JAN %.
The committee on corpora tions re-
ported back Stantons fellow-servant

that 1t be printed. The committee on
counties took the same course on the
