VALUE OF SUBMARINES.
Congress to Be Asked to Increase
Number Of Undersea Fighters.

One certain result Of the naval war
game now in progress off the eastern
entrance of Long Island sound will be
recommendations to Congress for a con-
siderable increase of the number of sub
marine boats. Even the commander Of
the attacking fleet, Admiral Osterhaus.
had to admit in his official report to the
Navy Department that the submarines
attached to the defensive fleet had sue
ceeded in approaching his big battleships
without detection until they suddenly
arose at the short distance of 500 yards
of the anchorage.
Equipped with torpedoes that easily
travel five times that distance at great
speed it would have been an easy mat
ter for the submarine commanders to
have sent some of the big ships clear out
of the water If the war had been an
actually. The obvious lesson is that in
wartime a hostile fleet will never dare
anchor off the coast If there Is reason to
suspect the presence within twenty-five
miles Of any Of the underwater craft; or
If they do so, they must have recourse to
the British device Of strong chain torpedo
nets hung far out from the hulls by
booms.

But George won't be skinned. After he
has served his purpose as a committee ex-
hibit he will be turned over to the bu-
reau of fisheries to gambol with the two
other seals now in captivity there.
All Of the many visitors to the commit
tee room seemed much interested in
George and his tricks. The little seal
was q household pet of the man from
whom Mr.. Townsend secured him. and
has been trained to an unusual degree.
For instance, if any one attracts George
attention, and says Prof. Elliott, y
George will bark and wave both flippers.
Prof. Elliott, it should be explained for
the benefit of the uninitiated. is the Cleve-
land (Ohio) expert on fur seal life who,
after years of unsuccessful effort. man
aged at this special session of Congress
to secure a hearing on the charges in

alleged butchery of the seal herd.
