The boat is a comparatively recent. invention, and the objects of the experiments is to improve it ina Yarlety of ways. ‘The Doat is made of sheet fron, 1s about 25 feet in length and 1S inches in diameter, and is pointed at both ends. The motive power Is a screw propelled by an engine which derives its motion from the generation of gas. The course of the boat is directed from the shore or vessel from which it 1s sent by means of electricity, paying out wire for the transmission of the electricity as It advances. The explosive power is dynamite, of which 125 pounds are used in loading each boat. Boats of this kia have been sold to the Russian government and to the Peruvian government, and some are in course of construction for the United States government. Among other experiments to be tried will be one to submerge the boat and pro- Pel it when hidden beneat the water.
