onstrations. Nevertheless it is feared
that the lawless element may get the
upper hand and this inspires the pub
lie with a feeling of terror bordering
on panic.
Some of the newspapers freely assert
that the movement is the prelude OF a
revolution in which the proletariat in
tends to overthrow the existing regime.
The alarnisf rumors add to the real
danger of the situation. Some OF the
reports picture the business and resi-
DENTAL parts of Paris as about to be
sacked and the streets barricaded- in
brief, veritab1e renewal OF the COM
mime. This has had the effect of
greatly alarming nervous citizens, some
of whom are sending their valuables
abroad and are preparing their resi-
dences to resist attacks.
One of the chief, difficulties is the
fact that the approach of the elections
makes the political elements hesitate
to offend labor by threat of severe re-
preston. However, the early tenn
porizing with the disorderiy miners in
the Pas-de-C Calais district has been sue
ceeded by vigorous measures, the mas
sing Of troops and the arresting of dis
orderly persons.

THREE HEROES SAVED

When the burning city seemed
doomed and the flames lit the sky fur

McCalla sent trio of his most trusted
men from Mare Island with orders to
check the confagration at any cost.
With them they brought a ton and a
half of gun cotton.

the squad. Chief Gunner HAdamson

SAFETY FOR SUBMARINES

Washington, ID. c., April Especial
precautions are to be taken for tile safe-
ty of the submarine boats. Not only
will there be with them at their man
oetivres a tender equipped with power
ful derrick and boons for lifting the
disabled submarine to the surface. BUT
it is proposed to furnish each ssibalar-
Inc with a floating signal, arranged with
a spool Of light wire carried on The out
side OF the submarines shell and con-
rlected with the interior so that in time
.of disaster the imprisoned persons may
release the floating signal which will
appear on the surface Of the water and
indicate that the submarine is ifl distress.
If has been pointed out by the experts
that a submarine might really be unable
ito get TO the surface, and that by The ma
tire Of the exercises no one would be
aware Of that fact Until it was too late
ito render assistance By the means Of
the floating signal. which, Of course,
could burn light at night, in an
emergency, a sign could be given from
the bottom, without the observers being
|obliged to wait an extraordinarily long
time Tor the temperance of the Sub
marine. in addition to which advantage
the floating signal would also indicate
the location Of the sunken boat. Iii
might easily be arranged that In time:
|of action such signal appearing on the
surface might indicate that the subinar-
inc was ont Of service; that ii appealed
for rescue, which Of course, would be
equivalent to surrender The scheme
lessons the peril Of service oh the sub
marines. although there have not been
lacking officers and men who are ailx-
|ious 70 volunteer for that kind Of dkty.
