SUBMARINE BOAT
Invented By Young Musician Said
 To Be Better Than Hollands.

The naval authorities of England and Russia have begun negotiations with a young man of Allegheny for the purchase of an improved sub- marine boat which may perhaps revo- lutionize modern warfare. Yesterday afternoon Alexander F. Humphreys of
 512 East Robinson street, Allegheny, the inventor of the new demon of the deep, received a letter bearing the seal of Her Majesty's Royal Navy request ing that plans of the boat be sent to England at once. The letter was writ ten by Nevin MacGregor, Secretary of the Admiralty, in London. He re quests that drawings for submarine boat of the cruiser size be prepared, and asks Humphreys to prepare an estimate of the cost of construction. Three weeks ago the inventor received
 similar communication from the gov ernment of Russia. Drawings of a medium-sized boat were sent to the navy officials of Russia several months ago by Humphreys, and recent letters from the domain of the Czar have stated that the plans seem to be practi- cable and may be experimented with in the government navy yards near St. Petersburg. Last night Humphreys sent letter in reply to MacGregor's letter stating that owing to ill-realth he will not attempt the work until summer.
 Two years ago Humphreys secured patent on a submarine boat. Al though crude in construction the model worked successfully. It was built on entirely different lines from the Hol- land; its mechanical arrangement was held to be less intricate, and it was also held that the vessel was capable of making greater speed and was able to disappear under, the water more rapidly than the Holland. Humphreys was unable to organize a company for the purpose of constructing a practi- cal boat, although many officials of the Navy Department at Washington conceded that 1t would prove a sue cess. A story published about a year ago in an engineering journal attracted the attention of the Russian govern ment to Humphreys invention. This resulted in his sending drawings of the boat to the naval officers, and finally in the request that plans for much larger boat be sent to England. The designs of the large boat will be drawn principally after the model upon which the inventor secured patent. The original intention was to build the aboat 50 feet long and ex- tremely light, so that 1t could be con- veniently carried upon a man-of-war.

NICARAGUA OR PANAMA.

The fact that the Canal Commission
has forced the estimates of building on
the Nicaragua route to 5000, 100000, or
$120,0o0,000 mere than Engineer Menocol
proposed, may mean, as has sometimes
been limited, that the Panama route will
be favored. Coincident paragraphs in
the press state that the De Lesseps cut
could be completed for $40, 000, 900, a
clear saving of $50, 900, 600. 1t is also
evident that the French syndicate will
make any reasonable compromise as to
purchase price, being anxious, it
would seem. to divest itself OF a work in
which the continental money market
will not place loans nor the European
powers incur political responsibilities.
While the nation as a whole does not
particularly care, If the canal can be
had, whether 1t crosses the Central
American isthmus at one point or an
other, Hawaii has reason to prefer the
Nicaraguan route. For one thing it is
shorter and would afford our sugar
quicker dispatch. For another, the
ocean there is not SO much affected
by Gains as it is west of Panama. Fur
thermore the lower route would put Ha-
vail in quick and easy communication
with the Panama fever. AS the Pacific
Coast States feel the force of the same
arguments, perhaps they Will be able,
by stout resistance to the Panama
scheme, to overcome the strength Of the
financial plea and get a decision for
Nicaragua. But it will be hard fight,
especially as the railroads are. for pur-
poses of their own. working with the
Panama lobby.

British Military Sensation.

LONDON, Oct ,24.-An error committed
to the premature leaking out of the fact
that the War Office contemplates the
possibility of having to call out every
volunteer in the country. The War Office
has distributed to the police officers
throughout the kingdom bills ordering
all reservists, military yeomen and vol
unteers, to report themselves without de-
lay to headquarters, with the view of
active service These bills are accom-
panied by letters ordering that the bills
be kept in a safe place until Geographic
orders to post them up are received. The
police official of Lancaster overlooked the
| letter and posted the bills, causing wide
spread perturbation.

DEFENDING THE ISLANDS.

The question whether all the islands
Of this group will need to be defend
ed has been raised by Admiral Evans,
whose professional eminence and whose
membership in the Naval Advisory
Board, entities it to serious thought.
Would an island without a harbor or
military defences or commissary sup
plies or great deposits of money be
worth anything to an enemy in time
of war? without taking issue with the
Admiral we should say that it wDIii
not. TIE military value of an island
or archipelago depends, we should
think, upon its utility as a strategic
naval base or as a depot of supplies.
That is to say it must have a karbor
reasonably protected from storms and
easily defended by forts where ships
may be repaired; and back country
from which commissary supplies nay
be drawn. There is only one island in
the Hawaiian group which has narbors
that a naval power could use; and there
is no island at all which raises enough
provisions to supply its population for
ten days.
Should the United States go to war
with Pacific naval power the enemy
would, unuOuDlSOIy- seek d IOOLiIpii OAi
Oahu. Here are actual harbors, ware
housed stores of al kinds, money u buy
ransom, and a base of offence. But
what could an enemy do with Maui.
Kauai, Molokai and even Hawaii
Would he not be weakened in exact pro-
portion with the efforts ne might make
TO safeguard them from recapture
From a naval or military point of view
would they be worth the trouble of TAX
ing and holding?
Most experts, in reporting upon the
matter heretofore. have thought it
enough to defend Honolulu and Pearl
IIarbor, leaving the rest of the group
to take care of itself or 10 rely upon
the Navy for defence. They have
thought that the presence in the various
channels of torpedo boats would make
the enemy wary of approaching islands
ne could make no special use of if cap
tured. The arguments always seemed
reasonable TO this journal, though, rec
ognizing Admiral Evans great attain
ments il is quite ready to stand cor
rected.
