SUBMARINE SHAFT
They Surpass All Warships In
Concentrated Deadly Power.
A DIVE UNDER THE SURFACE.
The Terrifying Sensation and ths
Agony of Roaring Noise* That Ba
wiider the Novice as the Vossel Goes
Down Into the Depths of the Sea.
In waters where the United States
maintains a naval station you may
happen to see a tall staff cutting
through the water as though borne by
some unseen band beneath the cur
face. On the top of the a tuff Is a
slight bent bond pointed in the dlreo»
tlon of motion. This U the eye of a
submarine.
From the lens in the front of the
hood a picture of the whole seascape
is carried down by a succession of
mirrors In the hollow staff until It is
thrown ou a prismatic lens at the bot
tom. Uere the navigator of the sub
marine watches a moving picture of
what is going on ubove the surface of
the water :iud guides his boat accord
ingly.
We said boat advisedly, because it 1s
really a vessel for the transportation
of human beings at sea. It Is. more
over. more than a floating craft, swim
ming on the surface like a swan. It
Is also a diver, darting down into the
del>tlis like a fish.
Let yourself be stiut up In It and
dive with it aud It seems more like a
tightly corked bottle. Your first sen
s.'ition us the bout starts downward is
thnt yon have foolishly allowed your
self to be shut up In n deatb trap
from which (here Is no escape. Your
heart sinks faster than the boat
And thou something happens to make
you forjret everything but that this
rraft is a bullish contrivance for de
stroying your bearing. As the subma
rine dips under the surface and all
Dutlet for sound Is cut off by the seal
Ins waters the rush of the sea around
the steel walls becomes the rattle of
spring hall on a tin roof. Yon remem
Lier that old and painful swimming
liole experiment when you held your
dead under water and let a playmate
strike two stones together. But bere
I he assault on your eardrums is as
.hough a million stones were striking
:ogetber. A pebble falling through the
waters on the steel hull sets the Inside
ianglng like a Chinese temple full of
jangling gongs. You must shout to
tje heard.
Through the roar from the vibrations
>f the steel shell come the Insistent
rrackling hum of electric motors, tlie
rattling tire of gasoline engines, the
(vhlr of machinery and the barking
rough of exhausts. Your craft seems
to be nothing but an elliptical mass of
•oneentrnted noise sinking through tbe
sea. You fear that it will blow up
from its own vibrations.
When you have In a measure con
trolled your protesting ears you look
irouud and see a wonderful array of
•ngines, machinery, deadly torpedoes
ashed together In pairs aDd tbe steel
tubes from which they are projected
with compressed air all stowed away
u the least possible space.
The double walls surrounding >ou
ire themselves huge ballast tanks,
tvhlch can be filled with water through
ralves opening Into the sea outside or
:an be emptied by the force of com
pressed air from within. As these
tanks are tilled the hull of the sub
marine sinks uDtil only tbe periscope,
the elevated eye of the vessel, shows
ibove the water. When the water Is
forced out of them the boat becomes
tight and rises to the surface until Its
•ouulng tower, superstructure and the
upper part of the bull are exposed,
fben tbe craft Is navigated like any
Jther boat
When tbe vessel Is submerged me
navigator at tlie lower end of the
periscope has a fnr more Intricate task
than the steering of an ordinary boat
The periscnpe, of course, brings him
u limited view of the sea about Then
he must steer in two planes Instead
nf one. I its craft turns not only to
the right 01 left, but also op or down.
To enable the vessel to stay under
the water h longer time than usual
the submarine carries a reserve supply
of nir. This emergency supply la com
pressed in a stet'l flask under the enor
mous pressure of 2.(100 pounds to the
sijuare inch Should the flask burst
the explosion wouli' wreck the boat
Perhaps a better idea of tbe tremen
dous concentration implied by this
pressure may he gained from the
statement that If this storage cylinder
were punctured with a hole no big
ger than n needle and if the tiny Jet
of escaping air were to strike a man
it wsuld pierce bim through and
through like a bullet and even drive a
bole through an Inch thick board be
hind him.
For ordinary purposes tbe air sup
ply used under water Is carried in or
dinary cylinders at much smaller pres
sures. Dntisual precautions have to
be taken to prevent the contamination
of the air supply by gases from the
storage batteries and from the gasoline
motors.
Concentration epitomizes the subma
rine. Its energies and utilities ore
packed in like the parts of a pozzle,
and In the concentration of deadly
power it surpasses any other weapon
of man.—Ran Francisco Chronicle.
Passion Is out of place In any discus
slon and more than ever In a right
cause, for It befogs and bcmuddlea It

i ASKS TRUST LEGISLATION.
Possible That Senate May Postpone
Measures, as Thirty-two Members
Must Stand For Re-election and Po
litical Ponces Need Repair—Murdock
Angry at Methods of Majority.
By ARTHUR W. DUNN.
Washington. May 2'J.—[Special.]—It
has almost become an old stor.v, this
writing about the "power of the presi
dent." Unt it comes up so often and
is proved so frequently that one can
not help but mention it.
Now, there was Die feeling in the
bouse of representatives as to what
should be the legislative program.
Four-fifths of the Democrats wanted
to pass the appropriation bills and go
bouie. and there were a majority of
the Democrats who wanted to pass the
rural credits bill.
And yet the president outlined a pro
gram providing that the trust bills
should lie passed liefore any further ac
tiou were taken, and the Democratic
caucus was unable to get :t- record vote
on any amendment to the president's
program. It t-uuld not oven muster
enough men to oppose him to call the
roll. There never ha.- been any other
president that had quite as much pow
er over cougress as Wood row Wilson.
Senate May Not Agree.
Tilt* members of the house are hop
lug that the somite will not agree with
the president's program and will put
the trust legi.latlon over until the
short session XuUidy can say jis.«t
what the president will do If this
comes up t<> him. hut we all know that
he held congress In session all last
summer to pass the currency hill, an<l
there was no adjournment. That he
may do the same in regard to trust
legislation is possible unless on agree
ment is reached to vote on the trust
hill early in Hie short session.
The members of the house lire hank
ing on the idea that thirty two sena
tors must go before the people next fall
for their re-e' vtion, and on that ac
count they will do almost anything to
secure an adjournment.
Don't Like Their Methods.
Vic Murdock, the Progressive leader,
amused the bouse the other day by
flaying the Democrats on account of
their methods. The Democrats brought
in a rule providing for consideration
of the bill .for election of senators.
Nearly everybody was in favor of it.
Including Murdock. lie wanted the
bill, but did not like tho methods they
were using. A majority of the men
whom Murdock was criticising were
those who criticised the Cannon rules
and other gag measures, but found
when they became the majority and
responsible for legislation that they
had to use Just such methods in order
to get their bills through the house. j
Payne Was Fixed.
There was some discussion going on
In the house over a hill, and Sereno
Payne of New York objected because
It was a waste of time. "It will be im
possible to finish this hill by half past
3 o'clock,'" remarked Jim Mann.
"1 have a number of offers to pair
with me if i want to go to the ball
game, if that is what the gentleman is
getting at." said Payne, and that is
Just what Mann meant, for the only
time that Payne ever missed a ball
game was when he was chairman of
the ways and means committee and
had charge of a tariff bill.
Humphrey a Partisan.
Almost any time there is n bitter
partisan debate in the house of rep
resentatives we uiay bo sure that Con
gressman Humphrey of Washington is
In It. Tliere is no more intense Re
publican than Humphrey of Washing
ton. lie is almost in a class with Ford
ney of Michigan as a high protection
ist; but. more than that, lie likes n
scrap for the sake of it. anil lie loses
no opportunity to Inject party politics
in any debate that may be suing on.
Contesting For the Roosevelt Frize.
1 suppose there is a Koosevelt prize
for larger families or else two such
distinguished congressmen as Fitzger
ald of New Yore and Moore of Penn
sylvania would not be entering into a
contest a bout It. An unimportant mat
ter was under discussion in tlia house,
and Moore alluded to the number of
children lie had. Fitzgerald broke in
with the »f«t"moin thai he had more
children than .t. 1 >: .i jhart of
