OUR SUBMARINES SAFER.
Accident Like rms In France Believed
to he Impossible Here.

Accident Like That In France Believed
to he Impossible Here.
WASHINGTON. Oct. lin view OF the
Forthcoming tests Of submarine boats for
the United States Navy, which are to occur
in N~arragansett Bay. there is much interest
felt here concerning the accident to the
French submarine Lutin. The regulations
for the tests which have just been approved
by the Secretary Of the Navy. are oalcu-
lated to demonstrate hat a similar accident
could not occur to an American mar
II is pointed out that II the French boat
had the same reserve OF compressed air
as is carried in the American submarines
there would be no danger OF loss OF LIE by
reason Of lack OF air.
The longest test which was ever applied
20 any Of the submarines Of the American
navy was fifteen hours, and during that
time the reserve supplies we're not drawn
upon. II is commended that an accident
such as that which occurred to the Lutin
would be impossible in the submarines
now building for the United States Navy
They are fitted with eme '-ncy devices
which AN be set at any particular depth
desired and which absolutely prevent the
vessels from exceeding that depth unless
the commanding officer so desires.
The control Of the American boats, how
ever, Is 40 certain that this device Is only
installed TO cover instances OF unforeseen
emergency rendering the crew insensible
or incapable Of operating the boat. The APP
paratus is an integral part OF the boats
construction and can be tested every day
without in any way affecting the qualities
OF the boat. Recently n Of the United
States submarines was raised by her crew
from a depth Of thirty fathoms, at which
depth the Lutin is said to be immersed.
All submarines when submerged carry
a certain AMOUNT Of water ballast. II this
ballast il elected, either by means OF COM
pressed air or pumps. a lifting force Is
created which must inevitably raise them
IN the surface unless there Is a counter
force. The French submarines OF the Lutin
tvpa carry much less ballast Of his sort
than those Of the American navy. and IN
the American boats this ballast may be
elected at a depth Of $50 feet. Moreover
the tanks containing this ballast are o.
such strength that they are able to resist
the crushing pressure at great depth.
As illustrating the superiority OF the type
of BOAT now in the American navy IT Is
nointed out that although hundreds OF
dives have been made-one when President
Roosevelt was on board-there has never
been an accident resulting in a fatality.
Neither has any accident ever come to n
one Of the twenty-five or moro submarines
Of American type now in use in the navlee
Of England, japan, Russia and Holland.

LONDON, Oct. 1.-THE combination OF

prominent trader quoted by the Graphic,
be followed soon by a combination between
them and the soapmakers Of the United
States, which the French, German and

The papers informant says that J..
Pierpont Morgan has organized an ANAL

using Proctor Il Gamble OF Cincinnati as

Meanwhile the British soap makers con-
tinue to deny that a trust hasbeen formed

WOMAN CHEFS POPULAR.
One Has Been Appointed by the MARI.
borough Club Of London.
Special CaOIs Despatch 10 TIE SUN.

.spsodI CaoIe Despatch 20 THE SUN.
LONDON, Oct. I7.-Male chefs are aghast
at the appointment OF a m chef at the
Marlborough Club, OF Of the most exclusive
in London. The fact that the appointment
ia experimental does no lessen the dlsmay,
for according to the secretary OF the chefs
association there is a growing tendency
10 employ female chefs. A wave OF women,
he saws, is overwhelming the culinary pro-
fession. .
Nevertheless he declares that it will end
in nothing. Women will never replace
trained men in first class kitchens. Woman
has not the temperament OF the successful
chef. She may have inspiration, but she
lacks the power OF organization. The prep
aration OF a big dinner means continual
anxiety for the chef. A crisis may occur
At any moment. For instance, an entire
course may be spoiled. A man pt iron
nerve will rise TO the occasion, but most
women, however skilful as cooks, will lose
their heads. II Is not fair to ask a woman
to undertake more than plain cooking IN
smaI hotels. They do not have sufficient
application to stand the exhaustive training
FOR seven or eight years which male cooks
undergo.

STLVEIRA WAS AT CURACAO.
Carmelina, on which He LEFT avana Wa
Headed for V~enezuela.

hhO8AAeh
Manuel Silveira, the Havana banker who
is supposed to have decamped on the steam
ship Carmeiina from Cuba and taken with
him a million dollars or more Of the money
Of the banking house Of Ceballos a Co. OF
this city, is known to nave been aboard the
Carmelina at Curacao On Sunday, October Z,
Ave days after the Csrmelina cleared from
Havana -for New York;
The information was brought here yes
terday afternoon on the Red d Line steam
ship Zulia, which sailed from Curacao on
Monday, October 8.
Capt. Bennett OF the Zulia said that he
had seen the Carmelins enter the barber
on Sunday and had heard that she came
there for coal. At the time he had not heard
that Silveira was a fugitive n he paid
little attention to the arrival OF the Car
melina. He was not even certain whether
she left the harbor the same afternoon or
the next morning. He had heard that she
was to touch at Porto Cabello, Venezuela,
for which port she had some cattle:
II. B. Chase, a representative OF the Com
meroial Lumber Company Of 0s Broad street
and a passenger on the Zulia, said that the
names OF Silveira, his wife and two children
were on the passenger list OF the Carmellna.
He had seen a copy Of the list in the office
oil heNAS, feTcnOn q OO.t WHO dIo akOhSS
for the Carmelina as well as for the Red ID
Line. The -four passengers were booked
for New York via Curacoa, said Mr.. Chase,
and when he saw that he had wondered
why any one sailing from Havana had taken
such a roundabout course to get to New
York. He was inclined to believe that they
had gone somewhere else: However. there
was in port the steamship Prins Friedrik
Hendrix, which was to sail the day after
the Zulia. and the party might have taken
passage on that ship. The Prins Friedrik
Hendrix is due here about Saturday or
Sunday.
Mr.. Chase was quite sure that the Car
melina had sailed from Curacao again on
the afternoon Of Sunday. October Z: ,
No one On board the Zulia understood
the presence Of the Silveiras on the little
island until yesterday afternoon, when a
reporter of The SUN went on hoard the
Zulia at Quarantine and asked the captain
il he had seen anything Of the Carmelina.
Capt. Bennett said the Carmelina was
light when she came into Curacao. though
she had her cattle pens on deck: He had
not seen the master OF the vessel and was
not positive as to the port for which he
had cleared.
