& NEWPORT, r. T.. Sept. 15-A pretty
exhibition Of mimic warfare. important
as illustrating tho effectiveness OF the
1lavy's submarine craft was given to-day
off Brenton's Reef Lightship when the
Submarine tori pedo boat Adder succeeded
in torpedo ding the torpedo boat Craven.
So stealthily did the Adder creep up on
the Craven that tho wooden torpedo sue
Icessfully fired struck the Craven a smart
blow below the waterllne amidships be-
fore the crew on the floating warship
could man the guns or tho torpedo tubes.
The Craven left the torpedo station dur
ing the forenoon, and running down the
harbor, cruised about Benton's Reef
Lightship awaiting the attack. The
Adder, instead Of following Immediately,
waited an hour In order to get the crew
Of the Craven off their guard. AS soon
as Fort Adams was cleared the subma-
rine boat plunged beneath the surface and
remained for forty flve minutes, during
which time officers and men enjoyed
lunch without Inconvenience. On getting
outside tho harbor, the Adder was once
more sent to the surface. but only her
coming tower was exposed. Tho Craven
was sighted a short distance outside the
lightshlp riding on an easy swell The
Adder agaip plunged and when within
three hundred yards Of the Craven. a
wooden torpedo in the shape and size OF
o regular projectile, was fired. The shot
was q good one, and the torpedo struck
the Craven amidships with considerable

viii contribute to solution Of teh race

10 Senator Carmack's mind tho surest
iplan OF solving the negro question, as II
affects the white race, both socially and
nolltically, lies In the negros elimination
from politics, Should tho 1.lteenth amend
nent be repealed, the question of treat
Ing with the negro woulu be left to the
States.
Carmack is for the separation OF the
races But how to proceed, or how long
# viii take he does not attempt to say,
He believes, however, that the races
would be better conditioned II they were
senarated He believes the black race Is
failure that 1t owes what little It has
nchsleyed to its association with the white
race.
Immediately after the war between the
States the Senator regards that MS a mis-
tare FOR which tho repeal of the fifteenth
