Death was caused, he believes, by the concussion of the heavy guns fired at the fort last week. All of the specimens were kept in cars at the submarine base and during the firing of the morters ‘the effects of the concussions were felt to such an extent in the wa- ter that most of the bathers at the base kept out of the water during the practice. Tt was about that time that the octopi began to die, Mr. Knowles said, and as they had been healthy and apparently in perfect condi- tion up to that time, he believes that they died from the concus- sions.
