| WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. 30
Much interest is displayed by the Off
GERS of the United States navy, espe-
cially by those in the bureaus, in the
coming official tests of the new sub
marine boats, Moccasin and Adder,
which will be held next month in Pc
comic bay, Long Island sound. off
Shelter Island. Exceptional care has
been taken by the officers in charge
to make these tests as comprehensive
and as rigorous as is fair to the con
tractors. 1t is believed that on the is
sue of the trials depends the future at
titude of the navy department toward
thecraft so tiny. yet so dangerous.
Rear Admiral George w. Melville.
chief of the bureau of steam engineer
ing, sounded this note of warning:
"If the submarine boat has any mill
tary or strategic value, we should
change our policy of ship construc-
tion. for nothing could Justify the
building of so many battleshps If the
submarines possessed even portion
of the advantages that their advocates
claim. In the Indifference of naval of
ficers to this question there is great
danger The boats are either valua-
BILE or they are worthless for mill
tary purposes.
From the time that the senate and
house naval committee look with ia
vor upon these boats" continues the
admiral. there will be a decreased
construction of battleships, and the
action of congress in striking out of
the naval appropriation of 1901 all au-
thorization for battleships and cruis-
ers can certainly be traced to the be-
lief that the submarine boat possesses
many of the qualities claimed by its
advocates"
