A NEW SUBMARINE
That Will RevoIutionize Naval War
fare, Says Asst. Sec. Satterlee.

Washington, Feb. 21-Several states
were represented at a meeting of the

President Roosevelt received the dele
gates in the afternoon.
In his address Asst. Sec. Satterlee de-
scribed a new type of torpedo boat de-
stroyer which can be hauled out of the
water and kept as easily as a canoe.
A dozen Of these, he said, can be con-
structed for the price of one of the pres
ent type.
In his view, the harbor and coast de-
fences of the country would be immense
Iy increased by the addition of fleet of
gasoline propelled torpedo boat destroy
ers. The little vessels would have a
speed of 25 knots an hour and could be
placed in the hands of the naval militia
for coast and harbor defence.
He said the approximate cost of such
vessels would be about $4,000 each. The
machinery of the boats would be of
such a character as to be put into motion
almost as easily as that of an automo-
bile. Mr.. Satterlee's address attracted
able attention and elected great APP
plauSe.
At the afternoon session the following
officers were elected: Capt. Warren +.

Exists in Japan and there's No Nee,
Of War Says Cont Kato.

London, Feb. 2l.-The nwy appointed
Japanese ambassador to Great Britain
Count Takahra Kato, imam interview
today said that he saw nc reason WHY
japanese relations with the United
States should not remain excellent in the
future. despite the loud talk OF a small
excited section.
How highly we prize the Ttatesman-
like action of President Roosevelt in this
connection said the ambassador sit is
hard to say, but speaking for ny coun-
try / can assure you that nohdy ever
conceived such mad scheme asfghting
with the United States
Count Kato declared that then could
be no dominant power in the vast wa
ters of the Pacific. We have no inter-
ests there" he continued, that can
clash with the United States. We mean
to have our own sphere of infiuene in
our own part of the Pacific but MT to
the detriment of a single power, fo' We
are not seeking any exclusive prestige"
