NEW FOG SIGNALS.
Arrangement Of Whistles to Indicate a
Vessels Course.

In a report to the State Department, Con-
sui Haynes, at Rouen, France, says that
captain of a French vessel has recently in
vented a very simple continuance by which
the directions of vessels in fogs can be
determined.
The signal is given by a whistle or
whistles emitting two sounds, one in a very
high key the other very low. These sounds,
adapted to the sixteen principal points of
the compass signal the exact direction in
which the vessel is going. If the ship is
going north it gives a low, a high and a
low whistle; if it is going west-northwest it
gives three high whistles and one low or
deep whistle. All the signals from north
to south by way of the east begin with a
deep or coarse whistle. and all those from
the north to the south by way of the west
begin with high or keen whistle. The
instrument proper consists of box con-
tanning cogged drum which, somewhat
after the manner of the keys in wind
instrument, determines whether the sound
be high or low A retarder, controlled by
a crank, causes the rotation of the drum,
that two sounds cannot be blended or
confused. The crank turns once every sec
ond. On sailing vessels the signals are
produced by bells.
