Lane For some time after the attention of naval constructors was turned seri- ously. to the possibilities of submar- ines, these vessels were regarded as he- ing little more than dirigible mines, their limited range detracting from their value. Inventors, steadily however, have worked to overcome this defect, and submarines with a considerable cruis- ing radius are now being added to the navies of the world. Last spring the Shark, one of the latest additions to Uncle Sam's fleet, of under-surfaee destroyers, was given a six days' endurance test with its two-cylinder 'gasoline engine to dvter mine how long that engine would run the vessel should the regular electric motor break down. More than 500 miles was the dis tance covered by the little vessel in this test, during which she went through all the manoeuvres incident to warfare, and demonstrated the ter rible murderous possibilities that lurked in her steel shells. While the United States, England, France, Germany, Russia and Japan are leading in the race to equip their navies with this new style of fighters, just how many submarines there are now in active service or how many are being constructed is to some ex- tent, a matter of conjecture, Not only do several of these nations endeavor to prevent the leaking of in formation regarding their plans in this direction, but = all experiments were conducted with more or less sec- recy. Beassev's Annual--a DPritish marine authority--for 1905 stated that Franee led all other nations in the number of its ' submarines, having thirty-nine completed and nine in course of con struction Great Britain was next in order, in possessing seventeen completed vessels, with ten on the and eleven more protected. The United States was credited with eight completed vessels, and had four more in course of construction. Its submarines in service are the Adder, Grampus, Holland, Moccasin, Pike, Plunger, Porpoise and Shark \ The erew of the vessel consists of an officer, and from nine to eleven men, $0 that about 100 men in all are as- signed to the submarine branch of the service Sir William address before the ways Tl. White, in a recent Roval Institute of Great Britain, said that France had twenty-eight submarines completed, and that hy the end of next vear she would have sixty such vessels in com- mission, with a total displacement of nearly 13,600 tons. Another atthority places the namber of French' vessels at thirty completed and forty in course of construction. The latest types are ne arly 150 feet long and of 420 tons displacement. To England the same authority ere dits twenty-five completed gubmarines, with twenty-five more being built. Un- der the latest designs the vessels range from 300 to 600 tors { with all improved machinery During the war between Russia and Japan, both countries eagerly entered the market for submarines, and pur ! chased a number in this country, and | England. Twelve were shipped in one lot to Russia it has been stated, and since the conflict has ceased it is un- derstood that the Russian govern: each, Saf such Lasts TE - sui ar art Wa : . {her submarines with great secrecy, so WY PN a Ee r= The Hunger Uncle Sans BT Suprise tilla in addition. Just how many the wily Japs secur: ed is known only to themselves, It is said that they purchased two in the United States and two others in Great Britain, 'besides ordering the construction of several more in the latter. country.' It is said that the Japs have been assimilating the best idéas from all sources and are quietly constructing a submarine fleet at home, about which the authorities of other navies know little or nothing, but which is. causing them the most intense pangs of curio- sity. This is- quite natural, because of the general belief that if the resourceful and ingenious Jap springs a submar- ine boat of his own design, it will be something well worth watching. Germany is farther behind in adding submarines to her fleet than her pow- erful neighbors, but during the last year or so has been devoting more at- tention to the subject. The kaiser is not permitted to spend all the money that he wishes upon his navy, and he may be awaiting the re-! sults of extensive experiments being made elsewhere, in order to adopt the best idea. Italy has also aroused to a keen in terest in this subject, and is planning to possess an up-to-date fleet of under- surface destroyers. Like France, she is conducting experiments and building that the real extent of her operations along this line are unknown to those outside the government's confidence, Spain and Brazil both single submarine of rather antiquated type, while Portugal has been testing the lone specimen that is attached to her navy. Several years ago two laige sub- marines were constructed for Turkey, but no one knows what has hecome of them. Doubtless, the Turkish minister of marine, is not posted as to their whereabouts. The idea of a submarine vessel is not new, nor, in fact, is the existence of a vessel designed to navigate beneath the surface. It is said that Alexander the Great was interested in this subject, and that the navigation beneath the shr- face was studied in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, Delpeuch says that English ships were destroyed in 1372 by means of fire carried under water, In 1621 Cornelius Van Drebbd ex- hibited to King James I. a submarine boat upon the Thames, and by 1727 no fewer than fourteen types had been patented in England.

Eagle, bor, Lee succeeded in getting under the British ship, but his plans were foiled by the failure of the torpedo machine to work.

IN CENTRAL ONTARIO. Proposed to Compete With the Grand Trunk. According to a Belleville, Ont., de spatch, the Canadian Pacific railway has started a party out to survey a line from Belleville to Sea , take ing in all the towns between those points now served exclusively by the Grand Trunk railway. The intention is to build a line southwards from the 's main lige at Tweed to Belleville and then run west to Scar boro, where the main line into Toron- to will again be connected by a short line from Secarboro to probably Leaside Junction. The surveyors have been instructed to got as close to the towns as possi: ble. This new line, when built, will Tgive the CPLR. access to the most profitable fruit district of Eastern Ontario. It will take in such Towns as Trenton, Cobourg, Port Hope, Bow- manville, Oshawa and Whitby. Therd is a very larme business handled from these places as well as such interven: ine points as Brighton, Colborne, Grafton, Newtonvilla and Newcastle; Another important feature of this line is that it will furnish the Cana- dian Pacific with a double track line from Torento to Tweed, which would probably be extended to Smith's Fally to meet the double track which is pro- jected from that point to Vaudreuil, which would give the company a dou- ble track all the way from Montreal to Toronto. The projected new line is another in- dication of the intention of the Cana- dian Pacific Railway authorities to invade all the Grand Trunk's profite- ble territory in Ontario as a result of the invasion of the Grand Trunk Pa- cific into C. P. R. territory in Mani- toba and the west, Bean Crop Damaged. A special report on * the Ontario crop says: The extreme drouth which had lessened the yield. was broken hy excessive rain, which, coupled with the extreme heat, caused great damage. In many instances the pods were driv- into the moist ground, causing the Er to discolor and gprout. In some instances they have been pulled but not housed. The damage is very seri- ous. The quality will be materially affected, and the merchantable quanti- ty greatly reduced.
