meals while under water and most of
them obtained three or four hours sleep
during the night by changing watches.
There was only a slight rolling motion Of
the Fulton on the bottom of the ocean,
and when the craft emerged those on
board were greatly surprised to find that
u terrific storm had been raging. The
officers said that they could have remain
ed submerged many hours longer If there
had been food enough on board The ma
chinery worked to perfection and the test
was in every way satisfactory.
Here is a feat and a situation that
would tax the Imagination of a Jules
Verne. Tho United states is thus pos
sessed of a submarine craft that can be
equipped to remain under water almost
indefinitely. 1t is armed with torpcdoes,
and in its presence a mighty feet of hos
tile battleships of the present type would
be powerless. 1t can move about under
water at rapid rate of speed and the
first indication of its presence under a
hostile fleet would be a powerful cXplo-
sion destroying the iron levithians and
carrying destruction to all on board
whllo the assailant would remain in per-
feet security under the sea eiecting it's
little engines Of humiliation.
Tho success of the submarine torpedo
boat, which costs only a fraction of the
expenditure represented by great battle
ship, unquestionably means a revolution
in methods of naval warfare, if indeed it
will not eventually render the present gil
eantic battleship obsolete, calling for
lighter and swiftcr war vessels OF now
design. In tho meantime. this may be ;hc
coming way to avoid sEipwreck--to 50 to
