Under the head of submarine boats the
Admiralty report says:
Five of the type invented by Holland
have been ordered, the first of which
should be delivered next autumn. What
the future value of these boats may be
in naval warfare can only be a matter
of conjecture.
Experiments with these boats will as

Orient Royal Mail and the Pacific Com
