amount used during the test will be
carefully noted.
A depth OF $50 feet is about as great
as submarines would be called on to
reach In actual service, but in the
coming tests, TO quote the announce
ment TO builders. mo boat will be ac-
cepted as fulfilling all the require
ments of the navy department unless
the boat will stand without damage
the stresses due to an actual sub
mergence Of at least 200 feet"
Other tests will include speed trials
over measured mile courses in light,
cruising and awash conditions. sub
merged speed trials, firing of torpedoes
in submerged and other conditions,
mining, countermining, cable cutting
and handling torpedoes.
The details Of the tests, including
the number of trials TO each boat un-
der the varying conditions, are left
entirely in the hands of the trial
board, OF which Capt. Adolph Mark,
u. S. N, Is chairman. The test is to
last as long as necessary to complete
the trials under every condition of
weather that is desired. It was sug-
gested by the secretary OF the navy
that the date be changed on account
OF the probability of cold weather at
that time, but no action was taken on
this suggestion.
Winter weather Is OF small conse-
quence to submarines In action. as
was demonstrated during a trial of the
Lake Submarine company's Protector
in January, 1904. when the mast was
carried away by the ice under which
she was running. at a depth OF some
30 feet, and she rose to the surface
through an ice foe from five to ten
| inches thick without suffering harm.
It may, however, be more of factor
, in adding to the difficulties of the "a
hour submerged test.
Two Companies Compete.
SO far as is now anticipated. the
only competitors will be the Holland
and Lake Submarine Boat companies,
Between these two the competition
has always been most bitter. The fact
that the navy department has stuck to
the Holland type has aroused much
criticism and the contest has been
waged with great warmth in congress
where charges have been made that
the devotion of the department to the
Holland type was due to political In
fuence.
There have been previous tests in
which the two designs have met, the
most important previous one having
been in 1898. when three types we're
entered, the Baker submarine meeting
the other two. Since then, however,
and even since 1900 and 1901, when all
the submarines now in the navy we're
constructed, there have been tre-
mendous strides in their construction.
Each frm will be represented by its
latest designs, embodying all that has
been learned about the science OF
summarizing" up to the present time,
The Holland company will present the
| Octopus, the first of the four new
boats to be completed at the Fore Riv'
er yard. The Lake company recently

for the finishing touches. Each of the
rivals, therefore, will be offering the
extreme limit of its achievements to
the government.

submarines. the most exhaustive con-
test ever held between these craft, is
scheduled to take place in the waters
of Narragansett bay and the sea of
the Rhode Island coast this month.
Every conceivable test TO which a
submarine boat can be subjected to
determine its reliability and effective
ness will be employed, a week or more
being devoted to each competitor. and
on the result will depend the choice of
the United States government in the
further development of this branch
of it's naval service that has been de-
,clded upon.
An appropriation OF 100000 is
now available for the building of sub
marines as soon as the type Is de-
cided upon. Further appropriations
are expected, in order that this gov
-ernment may keep pace with European
powers In submarine activity more
nearly than It has been doing.
Eight of these curious craft are now
IN the American navy, and four more
are nearing completion at the Fore
River shipyard. All these are of the
Holland type, which has so far re-
tanned its supremacy in the opinion of
naval authorities, though not without
bitter competition on the part of the
Lake Submarine company, with occa-
slonal charges OF undue influence.
Some indication OF the interest
which the coming tests will arouse
among naval men Of this country and
the experts of foreign powers may be
seen in the recent incident at the Fore
River yard. Fore River Mass, when
Japanese officers stationed there dur
ing the building OF some turbines
for their government displayed a curl
osity in regard to the new submarines
that caused American officials to
worry.
Japanese Watch Closely.
On one of the preliminary trials Of
the submarines The Japanese officers
chartered a yacht and followed the
little boats until finally the American
officials asked them to desist. This re-
suited in calling the affair TO the at
tention of the higher authorities at
w WdSuluBLOl, anu IL tdlut W puullC az
tention when President Roosevelt Is
sued an order granting the Japanese
permission to observe unhindered
anything in the way of construction
which they desired at the yard.
From this 1t is inferred that the
Japanese officials. as well as some
from other nations, may be on hand
during the tests in Narragansett bay
20 gain as much information as they
can in regard to the probable addition
TO the United States navy. That such
observation will not be welcomed is
evident from the attitude of the naval
officials in the Fore River case, and
from the cloud of secrecy and mystery
which they have attempted to throw
over the preparations for the tests.
From the notices sent to prospective
competitors outlining the require
ments and the nature of the tests, no
tices which the navy department itself
declined to make public, the impor-
tance of the event in naval progress is
evident. For one OF the tests storm
at sea will be necessary. since each
contestant will be required to demon.

Contractors are still complaining of
the labor famine in the country and

count.
The labor situation is the same in
all parts Of the country and reports
from the construction departments of
several of the railroads contemplating
new buildings are to the effect that
much Of the new construction expect
ed to be started this year has been
postponed on account of the inability
of the contractors to secure men with
which to fill their camps.
This condition is known to be true

stood to be responsible for the delay
in the Hartman operations.
Reports from the prairie country are
to the effect that the camps are being
