to Every Ten Americans,
u. S. Reply to Ultimatum

/ Washington, Sept. 30.-The German
protest against the use of shotguns
by American troops has been receiv-
ed at the State Department and an
answer soon will be dispatched.
Shotguns are used by American
troops. 1t was said to-day, only as
authorized by the accepted rules of
war. They are employed in general
police work and in guarding pris-
.oners, being more desirable for such
work than the high powered army
rife because the firing of the latter
might result in. the. death or injury
of rTsons 1t was not intended to
hit.
Germany's threat of reprisals is
not causing any anxiety among
American officers. The Americans
hold 100 German prisoners to every
ten Americans in enemy arison-
camps.

Oyster Fishing by Submarine.

Mr.. Simon Lake, the father Of the
modern Submarine, has suggested the
use Of the submarine for polar explora-
ton for ferrying supplies across ice
bound rivers, for seeking sunken treas
ure, and for dredging oysters.
Experiments have demonstrated to
MI. Lakes satisfaction that when the
submarine Is at the bottom of the
ocean. the oysters can be sucked up
into it on the vacuum cleaner prin-
ciple. When traverslng good ground,
the submarine will suck up 5000 bush
els OF oysters in mn hour. This means
that In n hour Il mass Of oysters
will be collected which. IL compactiy
piled, would require a cylinder one ana
three-quarters mile long to hold 1t.
The idea should be particularly use
full to the pearl-oyster fishers, as Of
Ceylon. for instance.
