SUBMARINES
TEST WAS MOST
SUCCESSFUL
24-Hour Stay Under Water
Ended Yesterday Evening
at O'Clock.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Newport, r. l., May 17.-With all
hands contented, with bountiful
supply of fresh air and with records
OF submergence broken, the SUBJ
marines Octopus and Lake rose to the
surface of Naragansett bay at 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon. ending a
test of twenty-four hours under water.
The Octopus rose first and the mem
bers of the naval trial board crowded
about her as the coming tower hatch
flew open. The members of the trial
board at once went below to see what
conditions existed on board, and also
to test the air supply. Samples of
air were bottled every two hours
throughout the test for analysis by
the board.
The Octopus blew out foul air only
twice during the twenty-four hours
she was at the bottom of the bay.
1t was computed that only one-forty-
fifth of her air supply was exhausted,
and ii these figures are correct they
tend to show that the boat could re-
main submerged forty-five days, pro-
vided the food and fuel supply was
sufficient.
The Lake also stood the test we'll,
although a leak was sprung in the
superstructure. She pumped out
twice, but what proportion of her air
supply was used up could not be
learned.
Both crews passed the time conf
fortably while at the bottom of the
bay. They slept we'll during part of
the time, and games, books and other
diversions helped to pass the twenty
four hours below the surface.

eating liquor and the justice ordered
it all destroyed under the new law.
Everything was dumped in a pile just
outside the building and destroyed
under Commissioner Murray's direc-
ton. 1t was novel sight and aroused
no little interest.
A large number of spectators from
the city witnessed the destruction with
the state employees. The goods de-
stroyed included over forty cases of
beer, four barrels of whiskey, two
casks of wine, a case of gin, and beer

The first good test of the new law,
with nobody opposing it. looks like
the liquor traffic was abolished in
this state until the legislature modi-
fies the laws.
The temperance commissioner has
checked up liquor permits issued by
three drug stores in this city and
found that during the past few weeks
eleven hundred permits have been is
sued. If issued permit the patron
must claim the liquor is desired for
medicinal purposes and the physical
debility Of the purchased must be
stated in the permit. In checking
permits it is discovered nearly every
purchaser was troubled with stomach
trouble.
