Base Near Point Judith.

Thick weather prevented an early
start, and IT was not until after 1
o'clock In the afternoon that the Fulton
and her consorts reached the vicinity OF
Point Judith. where the base was es-
tablished. The trial board was divided
into several groups. Captain Train was
on the gunboat Hist at the point of at
tack; Commander Walter G. CoNles
was on the tropedo boat Winslow at the
base.

Accuracy of Attack.

There was a commotion at 1904 o'clock
In the vicinity OF the target, and the
Fulton came TO the surface. the direc-
ton having been perfect The target
was struck as wen as It could have
been had the attack been made with a
surface boat and the object been in
view all the time.
As the members Of the board had not
had the opportunity TO compare notes.
the exact duration Of the run could not
be positively stated, but II was said 70 be
about one hour and twenty minutes.
This Is an average of seven and one
half miles an hour, and IS considered
fast time for craft submerged.
