WANT CARGO HERE.

Two steamships are due for bunker
today, and one for cargo. They are
all expected at an early hour, and
harbor officials will be on hand in the
early morning to place the ships in
their assigned berths.
The Norwegian steamship Jessie,
bound from New Orleans for Aarhus,
and the British steamship Toremia,
from Galveston, are those to call for
bunker coal, while the steamship Or
kid, flying the Danish flag, is Iookec
for at an early hour this morning,
coming from Mobile.
The Orkild, upon arrival, will be
placed in a berth on the east side
of Tarragona wharf, just vacated yes
terday by the Italian steamship Con-
stanti, which left there at o'clock
yesterday afternoon, going direct to
sea and bound for Leghorn, Italy.
The other two vessels will of course
go to the bunker wharf, to fill out
with a large quantity of coal.
Another steamer, the Liegeoise, q
Belgian vessel, has been added to the
list of steamers bound to Pensacola
for cargo.

are one class older than the E-2.
The submarine E-2 was built in
1910 and displaced 430 tons. She
was capable of travelling IA knots on
the surface and II knots when sub
merged.
The E-2 in September 1914 had a
narrow escape from an accident sim
liar to that which befell the F-4 out
side of Honolulu harbor While the
submersible was engaged in maneu-
vers off Brenton Lightsaip, Ensign
Gillian detected chIoric gas when the
vessel was submersed fifty feet. He
ran to the surface by using the pumps
instead Of blowing up the tanks.
When tie submarine reached the
surface the coming tower was quick
~ opened to give the crew fresh air.
Every one of the 19 members of the
crew, it is said, were more or less af-

fected by the gas, some bleeding from
the nose and mouth. AS a result
of the accident Ensign Gillian was
under medical treatment at the naval
hospital in Las Animas, Colorado,
for several months.
The E-2 was the only vessel in the
world equipped with the Edison
nickel batteries and she made her
first trip successfully with them on
December z last. With Lieutenant
Charles NJ Cooke, Jr., in command,
the E-2 made an extensive run on
the surface, then dived and maneuver-
ed for several hours. After these
experiences the E-2 made a sue
cessful run submerged and the crew
found no trace of g1s. The run
proved, it was declared on excellent
authority, that the new batteries
gave better speed with less fuel.
The E-2 went into commission at
Boston in the spring of 1912.
The boat was built in the yards Of
the Electric Boat Company at Fore
River, Mass.
