TO RESCUE LOST GOLD

Steamer laurentic on Bed
of the Ocean.

Another attempt is to be made this
summer by the admiralty to recover
the remainder of the bullion lost when
the armed liner Laurentic was mined
and sunk off the north coast of Ire
land In 1917.
The salvage vessel Racer, together
with the Canadian drifter No. l, will
undertake the salvage work for the
fourth summer.
The Laurentic went down in 20
fathoms Q20 feet) of water four
miles off the coast of Donegal, carry
ing gold bars to the value of between
$1000O,00O and $15OO0,0O0.
Four years Of pounding by Atlantic
gales have reduced the wreck to a
shapeless mass and each pear the
work has been more difficult. Last
summer the divers found that about
$50 tons of hull and deckplates had
settled on the strongroom. where the
gold was stored, breaking it in. The
result was that only about $4,000 was
recovered, compared with $1,25O,OOO
the previous year.
After the winter storms the divers
expect to find the wreckage covered
with gravel and silt. which has to be
cleared away with pumps. Then the
steel plates and Orders must be cut
away.
The Racer is now equipped, in ad-
dition to every possible contrivance
for aiding divers. with "recompres-
sion chamber" A diver can reach the
bottom in half a minute, but after
prolonged immersion at 20 fathoms
below the surface half an hour has to
be allowed for raising him because, If
brought up too quickly. he is likely

The great pressure at 80 fathoms
saturates the system with nitrogen

SUNSHINE As SOURCE
OF FUEL OF FUTURE
Daylight Soon May Be Converted
Into Coal Substitute, Says
Noted Chemist.

Sun energy may he changed some
day into substitute for coal and
other fuels. according to DR.. ]. How

Wisconsin.
This statement he made recently
before the Chicago section of the
American Chemical society in the last
of series Of lectures on photo-chem-
istry delivered before the various Sec
tiOns Of the society.
with constantly diminishing re-
serves of fuel" said Doctor Mathews.
1.-THE question of the utilization of the
radiant energy from the sun becomes
more and more Of live question.
What will the world do when fuel is
gone? Such possibility is, at least
geolOgically speaking. a question OF
the almost immediate future. Hun
dreds Of millions of horse power of
energy are coming continuously from
the sun. How can this energy be
stored up and transformed into a use
full form Of force? The optimistic
photo-chemist believes that it can be
employed to bring about certain
chemical reactions, which. by their
reversal. will again liberate it, pre-
ferably in the form of electricity.
The dream Is no more chimerical
than was that vision of hundred
years ago. in which electricity was
conceived as stored and utilized"
Doctor Mathews remarked that the
farmer was a practical chemist,
and the growing Of crops the greatest
Of all photo-chemical reactions. With
the aid Of that mysterious substance,
chlorophyIl, which imparts the green
color to the leaves, the agriculturist
calls on the sun to combine water
and carbonic acid gas to form the
starches and sugar of plants. Chloro-
phyll unites various elements which
make up vegetation and is therefore
catalyst that is, substance which
promotes or retards chemical reac-
ton between other materials without
being itself affected.
Mature" continued Doctor Math-
ews, "does not always work in the
most efficient manner, and man has
improved on natural processes, as he
has redirected them to better serve
his end. What boon to mankind It
would be If the photo-chemist could
discover some catalyst which would
enable this reaction of water and car
hon dioxide to form carbohydrate
the reaction to be carried out in
the laboratory and the manufacturing
plant"
Doctor Mathews concluded that the
task Of the photo chemists is to study
all possible types Of reactions pro-
duced by all kinds of radiation. BY
that means they may gain more thor
ough knowledge of the laws and prin-
ciples involved, with a view Of MAX
ing in the future many important and
practical applications.
