sUBMARlN BOATS.
Congressman Hill has introduced in
the House at the suggestion of Can-
tain Simon Lake, of Bridgeport, a bill
providing for the construction of sub-
marine torpedo boats. The bill ,gives
authority to the secretary of the how
to purchase these boots, but only after
thorough competitive tests of all the
various kinds of boats now being made
or hereafter to be Invented. These tests
are to take place-before May 1, 1903,,
and $1,000,000 is appropriated to carry.
out the. provision .of the bill.
The bill Is put in at this time in the
house that at some future time such
legislation can be passed through the
naval committee. At present there is
no chance for any submarine boats as
botll the secretary of the navy and the ;
naval committee are opposed to them:
until they have been perfected. The}
United Slatcswill not need any fort

the navy are so divided in their opllr‘

cannot arrive at any satisfactory solo-1

near future the government will take;
up this question again. At present...
