NEW TYPE MINE
IS SELF-FILLING
As Soon as Sweeper Scoops Up
One, Another Is Forced
Into Position.

Paris. Sept. % Correspondence %
The Associated Press).--A new type Of
submarine mine layer and a unique
form Of submarine mine have come TO
light in the recent activities Of Ger
man submarines off the French and
English coasts. The new mine has an
automatic adjustment by which one
mine replaces another. much "a in al
automatic gun one cartridge follows
another after each explosion. Up to
this time mine sweepers have been
able TO scoop I'D the hostile mines. but
In the new type as soon as a mine
sweeper scoops OF one mine it is auto
matically replaced BY another.
The present type OF mine is anchored
to the bed of harbor waters. within ten
feet OF the surface Recently sweep
ers discovered that the anchor had been
transformed into a small chamber for
several mines. These we're so ar
ranged that when the first mine, in
position near the surface. was gath
cred in bv a mine sweeper the tug on
the anchor chain released another mine
from the chamber.
The extent to which the new device
is in use is not known. but recent oper-
atoms have established that several
have been actually placed. and foreign
governments have been informed of the
machinery. It is understood that the
submarines laying this new type give
their entire attention to that purpose.
Each submarine. it is said. can carry
eight automatic mine chambers. with
mines. chains. anchors. etc. They are
carried on deck
