Great credit is due Capt. I. n. Tooker,

her heel was reduced to q degrees, which
was as far as the pontoons could be util-
lied effectively. This ended the first stage
of the moving Of the craft. The pontoons,
which had cooperated with the A frames,
were now taken off the job and the work
was then started of completing the closing
up of the entire ship SO that she could
be pumped out as whole.
CLOSING up called for the building Of a
cofferdam more than $50 feet long on the
port side and something over 290 feet on
the starboard side. By means of these
cofferdams the liner was finally made
watertight to level just above the rivers
surface at high tide and she was, in effect,
converted into gigantic flask which could
be drained deliberately by the array of
pumps assembled upon her decks.
"The chains previously attached to the
pontoons during the pulling on the A
frames were next gripped forward and
aft by two great wrecking craft, the der
ricks Monarch and Commander, which ex-
ercised lifting and heeling force while
the pumps were getting rid of the water
within the st. Paul. In this way the sal
vors succeeded in bringing the vessel back
within 16 degrees of vertical. This ended
the second stage of the work.

To Roll With the Regulars.
A suitable complement of regulars will
at all times be on duty in the engine houses
as heretofore. When the alarm rings the
Vollies and their local chief will roll in
along with the regulars and will report
themselves to the regular chief and await
his orders. Also if fire starts anywhere,
during business hours for instance, any
corps members near by are expected to
show up, report themselves to the ranking
corps officer they find and stand by to
help out as requisite.
No Vollie on duty having responded to
an alarm may leave the fire unless the
commanding officer excuses him.
One hundred and fifty retired members
of the regular Fire Department have en-
rolled in the corps and are ION" three and
four nights week. Naturally when the
corps was newly invented last June a
lot of the regular department men found
it hard to see and did their best to snub
their volunteer associates out Of coun-
tenance.

more vigorous than howery in tone, which

the work. To facilitate the righting oper-
alton there were constructed and placed
on the upturned starboard side of the st.
Paul twenty-one tripods, technically
termed A frames, fashioned of steel and
timbers, and steel hawsers led from these
TO twenty-one cement anehoring blocks,
each of ten tons, sunk in a trench dredged
for them in the slip'to the south and be-
tween Piers go and SO. The pull on these
tackles was exerted by twenty-one hosting
engines firmly secured to the deck or floor
of Pier co.
"All during the month of May dredging
operation continued on both sides of the
wreck for the double purpose of clearing
the way for the divers and on the south
side Of providing deeper water into which
the liner might be shifted during the con-
GLIDING work of righting and relocating
her. The divers had to get close to the
ship to attach the chains and steel hawsers
which, with the aid of pontoons on the
north side, were to help roll the craft up
right. The other aid to the movement was
the series Of A frames just mentioned.

operations were started on July % and

noned out this tension and prepared a
better feeling. The fact that the creation
of the Volies helped the regular men to
have back their old one day off In five
instead of the one In ten the depleted
department had been putting up with
promoted the change of attitude. Now
everything goes smoothly and serenely.
The matrons at the station houses liked
the innovation well enough. These women,
who make up the firemen's beds and gen.
orally make the premises more homelike,
are paid by the men themselves, each man
chipping in. The draft depletions and
the dilutions of the force at outlying
stations reduced their pay considerably.
As the Vollies give their services free it
was not to be expected that they should
ante. But Deputy Commissioner Joseph
again came forward. He personally
makes up the difference to every matron.
In addition to the quota of Vollies at
every station Chief Kuss means to have

will carry a sort of free lance Wolfe crew,

HUN SUBMARINES SURRENDERED TO
 FORMER FOES

Harwich, England, Dec. 16-(Cor- respondence of The Associated Press) The business of actually accepting the German submarines in surrender was performed by officers and men of the British submarine force who for more than four years had maintain ed a tedious but relentless vigil of waters of the British Isles. An Ad miral in a light cruiser commanded the fleet to which the U-Boats sur rendered but it was a submarine of ficer who first stepped aboard each submarine, curtly went through with the brief formalities and it was a crew of men who had fought the U-Boats by underwater methods that manned it and took it to port
 These men had uncomplainingly stuck to a job that was recognized by the Admiralty as one of the most unattractive in the navy but it was ended by participation in an event unique in naval history and a fitting ending for service performed.
 Although British submarines al ways were on the lookout for U-boats their success in the war was not measured by the number they de- stroyed. Nevertheless it was co-in- cident that 20 U-boats should have been sunk by British submersibles during the war and it was the same number first surrendered to the Brit ish submarine crews on the day the taking over of the German fleet was inaugurated off this port.
 As far as possible the admiralty distributed the honor of. taking over the U-boats among all the men of 1 the submarine f1otillas Fourteen men were placed on each surrender dered boat and as they surrenderel B 6atches of twenty a total of 28t
