ton induced the Chinaman to equip his

| Test Is Made.
| With the destroyer Breckenridge
equipped as a demonstration ship, 40
or more representatives Of leading
steamship lines have just had an OPP
pOrtunity to see and test the efficacy
of the listening device. It is now a
government-contrOlled invention, used
on fighting ships during the war as q
protection against submarines and off,
cially designated by the navy as "the
NJ. V. type. hydrophone." It's object
| is to disclose in surrounding waters
the presence Of other craft, to foretell
| the approach to shoal waters, apprise
the navigator of the vicinity of light
ships equipped with submarine bell
signaling devices. It is expected also
to disclose with a remarkable degree
of accuracy the depth of water where
in the ship so equipped is floating.
Tells Depth Of Water.
The apparatus includes 48 hydro
phone receivers located in a tank OF
water in the bow of the vessel so that
an equal number is on either side. In
the test the sound of the propellers of
a steamer five miles distant was heard.
The depth of the water is aScertained
by 1istening~to the noise made by the
prOpel1ers of the vessel carrying the
hydrOphone as it is echoed back from
the bottom of the sea. In depths be.
yond 100 fathoms, however. the hydro
phone refuses to record, it was ex
planned, but as a majority of collisions
occur near coast line and at con-
gested harbor entrances, the inventors
and officers Of the navy predict that
it's adoption will remove many of the
hazards of navigation now caused by
fog.
DR.. II. G. Hayes, formerly of Swarth
more college, said the device had been
installed on one transport, Won Steu-
ben, and on one occasion probably
saved the ship from running aground
on the Long Island shore during q
heavy fog. Doctor Hayes also claims
that the invention will enable a mar
liner to locate icebergs, through the
rejecting back to the operator from
the submerged portion Of a dangerous
berg the sound of the operating ships
