we're boasting of their super-subma-

The British craft have two tunnels
and make "a knots an hour on the
surface under steam power. They
carry from eight to ten torpedo
tubes, two or three four-inch guns
and also are equipped with internal
combustion motors for surface cruis-
ing. The batteries for the under
lea power can be charged from both
the steam and combustion engines,
and an ingenious scheme has been
devised for quickly dismantling the
tunnels for the purpose Of submerg-
ing. The vessels displace 1000 tons
on the surface and 2,700 tons sub
merged They are $40 feet long,
have beams OF 26 feet and a cruising
,adius Of 5000 miles. They are
designed to be even 4 match for tor

1t is also known that the British
have successfully built submarine

details of this craft have not been
made public.
The new ideas embraced in the
construction OF the craft include the
"cushioning" Of the boat to with

So far as is known, the new craft
was never employed against any
