POWER OF THE SUBMARINE
SO Far 10 it, Guns Are Concerned,
Il ls Just About the Weakest
Thing Afioat.

The first and most striking fact
about the submarine is its capacity to
enter into and operate in waters that
are adversely commanded.
But, once in those waters, the
power of the submarine Is extraordi-
narily limited. Indeed. its capacity to
enter those waters can also be limit
ed. The use of nets, of mines and Of
ENTHUSIASTICALLY when assisted by
aircraft-these, at any focal point
which submarines coming or going
must pass, can do much to obstruct
their free passage. The narrower the
waters the easier their control by
these means. and even in comparative
~ open waters great destruction can
be and has been done by surface craft
upon them.
Apart, altogether, from the dangers
to which the submarine is exposed,
what is its value when it is at work
in hostile waters? 1t has two weap-
ons-the torpedo and the gun. It can
carry but few torpedoes-few, that is,
compared with the number of rounds
Of gun ammunition that it can stow
away. The torpedo, too. is an uncer-
tain weapon at the best of times, par
ticularly uncertain when aimed while
the submarine is submerged.
Wherever it is possible. then, the
captain Of the submarine has done his
work with his guns. But as q gunned
ship. Arthur H. Pollen writes in the
North American Review, the subma.
rine is the weakest thing a1oat. Hence
its guns can be used only against un-
armed craft. It dare not approach any
armed ship on the surface at all. II it
has to approach an armed ship sub
merged. its speed of approach Is great
ly limited. The highest submerged
speed does not exceed the half-powel
speed Of the slowest warship. Hence
speed and a high standard Of vigilance
in ships which are armed make them
altogether immune from submarine at
tack except in rare cases, when, by
pure chance, their course takes them
within the submarines striking radius.
The point is that II the ship is armed
the submarine must keep submerged,
and If it keeps submerged its maneu-
vering speed is low, its capacity to get
within striking distance is very limit
ed, and its weapon very uncertain II
the ship it intends to strike is both
at speed and accompanied by destroy
ers Of fast craft. the area of danger
to the submarine and the intensity Of
the vigilance are increased, and the
danger from submarines becomes al
together negligible.

AMERICANS WERE ABOARD
Steamer Sussex Hit BY Torpedo-Loas
Of Life May Be Greater Than
First Reported.

London.-Although there is still
some uncertainty as to the loss Of life
in the disaster to the cro~ss-channel
steamer Sussex, there no longer is
any doubt that the death list Is much
larger than the early advices indicat-
ed. The latest figures compiled in
London show as many as 100 persons
missing, including five Americans.
The Sussex had 436 persons aboard,
Of whom the following have been &C.
counted for: Landed at Dover, r.;
landed at Boulogne, $50; dead at Bou-
logne, 8; dead at Dover, 3.
The list Of missing may be slightly
diminished by the fact that some Of
the passengers who landed continued
their journey without reporting their
safety.
The casualties occurred in two ways
first. in the explosion when the ship
was struck, and second. by drowning
when two lifeboats capsized.
Capt. Mouffet, together with several
Of the officers and a number of the
passengers, asserts that the ship un-
doubtedly was torpedoed. Most of
these witnesses declare they saw the
torpedo when it was a distance of
about 100 yards. Unfortunately they
say there raj not time enough to
avoid 1t. although the captain made an
attempt to save his vessel by a Quicb
maneuver.

ANYO MARU WILL BE
PLACED ON CHIY0'S
RUN, SAYS DESPATCH

Dispatches to the Nippu Jill from
Toxic state that the T. K. K. South
American liner Anyo Maru will be
placed on the San Francisco Honolulu
Orient run IN place CT the wrecked
turbiner Chiyo Maru, total loss on
one of the Lena islands, south OF
Hongkong.
Although no confirmation has been
received by Castle & Cooke, local
Togo Kisen Kaisha agents, from the
lines headquarters, it is believed the
news is accurate, as it had been pre-
yiously reported that either the Anyo
or Nippon Maru, the former favored
most strongly, would be placed on the
Chiyo's run.
Yesterday the Anyo reached San
Francisco from Hilo, this port, and the
Orient The Chiyo was due to have
steamed from San Francisco May IL.
As the Anyo is a slower boat than the
big turbiner she will probably leave
San Francisco earlier than that date.
The Anyo can carry 80 first-elass,
so second and $50 Asiatics, much
less in her cabins than the Chiyo. She
is big freight carrier, however.
