Rumors Circulated That Big dupont
Building Was to Be Attacked.
A report that the hig office building
Of the DUPONT Powder Company at
10th and Market streets. Wilmington.
was to be blown up either at 8 O'Clock
Thursday afternoon or 8 o'clock Fri
day morning and that a letter making
that threat had been received caused
considerable trouble at the big build
ing Thursday afternoon and until the
time for the alleged blow-up had ex-
pired Friday morning. How the rum
or started is not known. as the Off
GERS of the powder company deny that
a threatening letter was received.
Every effort will be made to get at
the bottom of the affair and to ascer-
tain, If possible, who started the re
port. The rumor had the effect Of
greatly frightening some of the girl
stenographers in the building That
the ruuor was circulated maliciOusly
is shown by the fact that some one
even went so far as TO call at least
one family in an apartment house
near the big office building warning
them to get out. 1t is thought thai
the rumor came about from tbs
activity of the detectives in the Office
building. A man carrying a satche

and made to show what he has insidl

"HE increasing number of suc-
 cessfully destructive attacks
 by German submarines upon British warships has brought to a practical head the long-discussed theoretical question whether it was the destiny of the underwater boat to supercede the floating ship. Q England, Germany and France are understood to be so certain that the the day of the dreadnaught and su. perdreadnaught is passed that they are experimenting with plans of the only thing that can remedy the faults of the submarine and maintain the virtues of the battleship-and that Is a submarine battleship. The United States is actually building a supeT-submarine which to all intents and purposes is really a submarine torpedo boat It will be 265 feet long-100 feet longer than the long est submarine existing.
 War, both on land and sea, has become largerly a matter of conceal mont. The submarine boat is almost 100 per cent perfect in this respect.

ots on her deck. so that they can be pointed in any direction, whereas or dinary torpedo tubes are fixed, and the boat has to be turned to aim them. In effect these pivoted tubes are guns, which discharge torpedos instead of shells. Hatchways are pro- vided at each end of the craft. through which, for reloadirg, the torpedo projectiles can be raised with the help of machinery for hoist ing and handling. This supersubma- rine will have cruising radius of 1000 miles, or can travel $500 miles under water without renewing her fuel supply.
 The submersible destroyer being already an accomplished fact, why is it not easy to conceive of submer- sible cruisers and battleships? Such craft, if they arrive, will owe their creation not to choice, but to neces- sity. If Gas Sir Percey Scott predicts) the battleships of present day pat tern are destined to be driven from the seas by submarine boats, their

1ts faults are it's slowhess under water as compared to the speed of the surface ships; its limited range of activity due to it's limited fuel capacity; it's instability in anything but moderately calm sea and it's in- ability to effectively operate at night.
 On the other hand, given favorable conditions, one torpedo from the sub- marine can destroy the mightiest of floating ships.
 The type of war vessel which the nations are seeking is therefore a submersible battleship; dread naught heavily armored and formid y, ably gunned, of speed equal to ,.ne fastest war vessel of the present. with capacity to cover as manr miles of sea as dreadnaught; abls to fight on the surface if necesss.y, just as the dreadnaught does, yet capable also of sinking at will be death the water thus gaining cn1cealment while con- finuing t0 light with torpedos, just as a submarine does. In other words waYvessel which shall be able to CnerAte on the surface or under the waves as circumstances may render 1t advisable.
 A battleship constructed on prin- eiples of the kind would, of course, dAmand important notifications, as compared with the surface fighting crafA of today; but they would not be soAmany, or so difficult of accom- plishment, as might at first glance be supposed. The diagrammatic Illustration of such submersible battleship printed on this page shows its essential parts.
 The main problem would be solved by rendering the vessel water-tight, land providing her with an arrangement for taking water into compartments and pumping it out again, as is done in the case of the submarine today. How the guns aboard of her might be protected against injury by water will presently be explained.
 The submersible battleship will not necessarily be obliged to use two different means of propulsion-one for surface voyaging and the other for subsurface travel-as does the submarine of to-day. The internal

use in the harbors and in their near neighborhood, it has grown enormously in size-the German sub- marine of the "U" class is over two hundred feet long-and has be- come a sea-going craft, being de- signed to accompany squadrons of battleships.
 To keep up with the battleship it must have speed. Accordingly, the newest submarines initiate the de- stroyers in shape, and are provided with engines of no less than 5000 horsepower. The supersubmarine now building for the United States navy will be 265 feet long (the big gest craft of this type at present in our service being only 165 feet in length), with a displacement of 1000 tons, and the cruising speed required of her will be twenty knots an hour. She will cost $1,300,000.
 To all intents and purposes this vessel is a submersible destroyer. She will be provided with ten torpedo tubes-four of them mounted on piv-

of that class with from 600 to 1000 per cent more efficiency in torpedo equip ment. It could have compartment for submarine mines, with a hatch for placing them in the path of a
 pursuing enemy. As a surface bat tleship it would still have the regular

equipment of wireless. stretched be tween folding masts, searchlights, signals, etc. The small boats could be jettisoned by means of an auto matic release when the ship is to be submerged. Extra large peri scopes could be installed and used as lookouts, and principally this huge battleship would have the advantage of disappearing beneath the water when it is being overtaken by ships of the enemy.
 The large drawing on this page ehows what such submarine bat tleship would look like. The most notable feature of this new boat is absence of tunnels, military masts, cranes and many other deck fittings which indentifies the present day bat tleship. In the picture sections of the deck have been removed to show the principal internal workings of the future monster submarine with the various parts lettered to give the reader an idea of the many different details contained in the new subma. zine battleship. Along with having the same armament of the present day battleship, it will, as mentioned, have the full underwater equipment.
 A boat of this type may be used with telling effect on coast cities and destroy naval stations, likewise fleets of small warcraft. It may also be used to explode submarine mines by the concussion caused by the explo- sion of volley of torpedos dis charged in the neighborhood of tho mines. It is hard to anticipate just what this huge agent of death would do in actual combat, but we may well consider, judging from perform ances of our present day submarines, that the next step in naval construc. tion will be the submarine battle ship.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-02-14

sired the electric
 motors and DiesM motors can be used together.
 When the problem of the internal. combustion engine has been so far worked out as to render 1t available for both purposes Qh submarines, it can be utilized in like fashion for the submersible battleship. Such engines will be in effect automobile engines of huge size and great power.
 It remains to determine-or, one shoulF rather say, to surmise-what struqtural notifications a battleship would require in order to render it conveniently submersible, apart from the arrangements for rising out of the sea or sinking beneath the waves, by taking in water or pump. ing 1t out again.
 Contrivances for making the deck openings-including matches and tur- rets-water-tight are not matters of any difficulty. Riddance will be had of smoke-pipes by the use of inter- nal-combustion engines. Ths masts supporting wireless apparatus will be hinged at the foot. perhaps, so as to fall along the superstructure. But, it will be said, what can be done with the guns?
 This is feature of the problem more simple than might be supposed. They can be made so as to be drawn back into the hull, much in the same way as the present type of disappear bearing guns now used by our coast artillery. The same machinery which draws back the guns can be used by means of cogwheels and piniong to automatically close the portholes with cover resembling the breach block of large gun, in which case a quarter-turn will make it absolute ly water-tight.
 Lest this expedient be deemed to fanciful, mention may be here made of the method now used by foreign nation for slowing three-inch quick firing gun on the deck of the sub- marine. The gun is made to disap- pear in pocket in the deck, using the same principle as a typewriter is overturned into and concealed within the familiar kind of desk made for the purpose. Water-tight steel matches are then boltel over them.
