LAKE COMPANY
HOPES TO Get
10 CONTRACTS
Bidding on Wide Cruising
Radius, Deep Sea Sub
marines for u. S.

Awards of contracts for subma-
rines, for which the Lake Torpedo
Boat Co. Of this city, is bidding, will
not be made by the United States gov
eminent for several days. It is hoped
by officials here that at least 10 Of
the 27 submarines proposed by the
government will be awarded to the
Lake Co.'s Bridgeport and San Fran
cisco plants.
+, The Lake Co. bid s1,195,OOO on the
S0O-ton, wide cruising radius, deep
sea submarine of which three are to
be constructed. The Electric Boat
Co., it's only competitor, bid from ST.
$4,000 to $1,16s, 900 with: the limit
cost at s1,20O,000.
All bids for coast submarines were
government. With a bonus of 20 per
cent. included for early delivery, the
maximum price would be as much as
$4,000. The Electric Boat Co. there
fore, bid with this object in view
naming figures from $S03,400 to $685.
400 with deliveries from Is to 1S
months hence.
On the straight bidding the Lake
Co. and the California Ship Building
Co., its Western branch yard, bid at
prices ranging from $698,O00 to
$695,000. The California bidding was
subject to the Lake Co. receiving work
for similar boats.
1t is believed that the Lake bidding
is low and it is hoped, here to get at
least 10 Of the contracts for construc-
ton, with a possibility Of more being
awarded for later deliveries.

FUMES To ROUT
RATS ON Liner
KILL 3 PERSONS
Poisonous Gases in Hold of
Ship Overcome Gang of
Carpenters.

Boston,. Nov. 2-Three carpenters
lost theiri lives today after inhaling
fumes from chemicals with which the
Leyland line steamship Devonia. was
fumigated yesterday in an effort to
exterminate rats. Three others,
members of the same working squad
who went to their rescue, were over
come Hospital physicians said their
condition was serious.
William E. Sterling and Daniel
Dampsey, first to enter the hold, died
on the deck of the steamer after be-
ing brought out by members Of the
Devonian's crew wearing improvised
gas masks. William L. Sterling, fore
man Of the gang, and father of one
of the victims, died later at a hos
pitaL.
The vessel, which is waiting to take
on cargo of grain was fumigated
yesterday and it was supposed that
all gases had escaped when carpenters
went on board today to work in the
holds.
The men were overcome the ND
ment they entered the hold. Their
cries for help attracted the attention
Of Chief Officer John Selby and w. l..
Sterling, foreman Of the carpenters,
who were on deck.
Selby and Sterling found the men
unconscious and were on their way
out with two of the men when they.
too, were overcome and fell back.
Meanwhile, Captain Trant, Of the De-
vonian, had called his crew together
and with the use of improvised gas
masks they were able to- bring the six
men to the deck.

COMING DIVIDENDS.

hear New York Central will be
placed on a per cent. basis at the
next quarterly meeting of directors. 1t
is no secret in inside circles that the
Rockefeller interests are in favor or
putting Union Pacific practically on a
10 per cent. dividend basis this year
Atchison,s coming increase in its rate
Of dividend to per cent.-and pos
sibly something better-is as plain to
be seen as goats tail going up hill.
These are the approaching, overshad-
owing railroad dividend changes. The
Vanderbilts want to see Centraps pres
tage restored. The Rockellers and
the National City Bank f1nanciers
and the Kuhn-Loeb interests want to
vindicate the coptention Of the late
Edward H Hartman that 10 per cent.
dividends on Union Pacific were war
ranted. Edward J.. Berwind and
Henry G. Frick, directors and large
holders of Atchison for many years,
take the stand, or so report goes in the
vicinity of the Mil1ionaires' Club, that
the time has come when Atchison can
no longer defer increasing its distri-
button without doing gross injustice to
stockholders. President Ripley is pes
simistic as regards the eight-hour rail-
road law and his position in that
matter is admirable. Yet besides his
roads ability to pay Z per cent. and
even per cent. it pales.
