Inter-Ocean,
Chicago, Feb. 10.-Local wheat bears
were disposed to ignore the claims Of
crop damage from the southwest and
said its effect was o~vershadowed by the
light trade and the liberal sales by
the west to come there. They attrib-
uted the decline to limited buying sup
port and timidity by the bulls. Export
houses were divided on the wheat sit
uation. Those in the northwest declare
that there Is a good export demand,
as they have sold a lot Of wheat. Of

SUBMARINE SHIP NEXT.
German Expert Predicts Great
"Jntcr See BOOtc" DcNcIopment.

The German press bureau In New
York gave out the following Yesterday
BERLIN. Dec. 6.--The Norddcidschc An
iG'mctne /cttunG publishes a very read.
able analysis of Germany's submarine
policy from "A prominent German naval
officer, who foresees the coming OF vastly
large submarine boats or rather submd-
rine ships
1T l. Of vital Importance" he writes.
FOR the further development Of sub
marines CT boats) that torpedoes should
be brought to the greatest poss bic per
teCton. such improvements depend on
the torpedo tubes ana torpedoes with
which the boats are furnished. on their
speed ana efficiency. As well as on their
handling and management
The number OF tubes and consequently
Of torpedOes has been constantly increas-
ing Thus English submarines have as
many tubes as siN. and even more so
that We may soon be able To speak Of sub.
marine ships.
AT first L boats We're merely Intended
to defend the home coasts but soon their
unexpected efficiency destined them 10
become independent rulers of the waves.
They were able 20 remain under the water
fer some time and We're fairly safe and
secure. tnders"a navigation, being COM
parative.y smooth even IN an agitated
sea, pointed out the desirability Of build
ing boats which could be on the sea
AT least rs long as torpedo boats. 1t
is known from war reports that at pres
eut We are sufficiently advanced to send
L boats Independently all over the North
Sea and the Baltic
our L boats are constantly enlarged.
so that they may surpass the enemy's
boats IN size and fighting value. but
chiefly In order to make an even wider use
of them.
''lrevtous submarine successes show
that with some good fortune ii is not SO
very difficult to attain good results But
the handling Of 1 boats more than Of
others requires great deal of porsc-
Vcrauce. caution and courage.
THE periscope Is the most valuable
part Of the diving boat and betrays its
location. At the same time the wake
left by the passage shows the boats
course. hence those submarines are at a
great advantage which make ready for
attack without exposing the periscopc cS-
cept rarely and for brief intervals. ANY
moment the enemy by successful shooting
may spoil submarines good chance
hence II requires much skill ON the suhna-
rine's part to fix the proper time for dis
charging tho torpedo
submarines are. relatively speaking,
greater source Of strength 10 a fecber
naval Power than to a moro powerful
one, So We can quite understand that
even the mghticst navics feel somewhat
paralN zed n they are opposed by an
enemy who is provided with fair number
Of submarines. An efficient means of
combating the L boats has not yet been
invented, hut might hc looked for in the
FIRST place, In the shape of some air
craft"
