A Mfr- proved herself so stable that there will not be the slightest difficulty in getting her crew to make the trip. "I would sooner go in her than in a liner," said Capt. Frank T. Cable. "Should a storm come up we can sink at will un til it is over." This statement, showing perfect confidence in the stability of the boat, was made to a correspondent for The Sunday Pioneer Press who was per mitted to go aboard and inspect the little marvel on her recent trip, when she made a run from Greenport to Ne Suffolk for the purpose of trying a new and more powerful propeller. And on that trip she gave a new per formance that showed she possessed a merit that even her enthusiastic owners never gave her credit for. She proved herself a wonderful ice "breaker, going through four Inches of solid ice as If it were paper and at the same time losing little speed, to the de light of her captain and proud crew and the deep gratification of her owners. The little Fulton traveled full tilt for the ice field with her nose about a foot under water. She lifted up the ice, hurl ing it on either side as a plow Would overturn soft soil. A she lifts the ice up on her steel bow, which slants up ward from the submerged nose toward the conning tower, it breaks into cakes, which either fall on top of the ice further away or are thrust under It. In this way she makes a cleaner path for herself and does not waste as much power as if she crashed into the ice field and "broke up a path by mere force. So impressive was the performance and so successful was the Fulton in a 'work for which she had not been designed and which was attempted merely as a side is sue that Capt. Arthur MacArthur, the government naval expert' abroad, was both astonished and pleased. Is a son of Gen. MacArthur and will "be In com mand of the Adder, another Holland sub marine boat, when it is launched from the New Suffolk yards in a couple of weeks. Though the Fulton is not owned by the government, and is commissioned as a private yacht for the company's purposes In steadily experimenting so as to get the highest possible grade of efficiency, her trip to Washington about the last of Feb ruary will be the first step *a"ken to show that she is perfectly able to cross the ocean with safety to herself and those on board.

Should it be carried out successfully the navies of the world again will be electri fied by Yankee spirit and daring, as the torpedo boat is only 63.4 feet over all and the intention is to send her under her own power.

Great secsecy is maintained regarding the building of the submarine, torpedo boats in the (works in New. Suffolk. To Iteep experts or men in the -employ of foreign governments away from the Holland boats detectives investigate every person of whom they are suspi cious.

Capt. Frank Cable and^ Capt. MacAr thur were found at 10 o'clock on Mae night preceding the test, on board the band some steam yacht Giralda, In Greenport basin. reach the yacht it was neces sary to pass through the shipyard, Capt. Rich of the Giralda acting as apyescort and giving timely warning of bat-smash ing timbers overhead or tripping boards Underfoot. i "There she Is." said Capt. Rich, point Ing upward to a weird looking thing 1* the etqeks, dimly, made out against itLu night sky to be cigar-shaped, with tfc forward end- blunter than the stern. "What is that boat next to Tier?" wat asked. "That one painted yfchit'e, with the graceful linesT' ^"That's the old Vlgilantr-the one that !idn' do a thing to Valkyrie II. and the Britishers." ing lines sliowea plainly in tno mgni. Al ways at ease, her white sides rested gracefully on the stocks, as if they pressed but lightly against her dear old bones. Two masts showed that her pres ent owner, Percy Chubb, had rigged hei as a yawl on pleasure bent, He had put her to bed on the stocks lest ice or storm distress, and she lay there, a white thing of peaceful victory, and dozed an dreamed of her maiden days of conquest So close beside her- that they akno touched was the Fulton. The dark red of her sides showed black in the night The timbers on which she I rested coulc not be seen. Her great propeller flarec from the stern and she seemed an un couth, bird of prey, poised by' the bird at peace for protection or destruction, whichever way her pregnant mind might turn. A cheerful party of two was found in the saloon of the GiraldaCaptains Ca ble and MacArthur. The commander pf the Fulton, who is a relative of the nov elist, is clean shaven arid has a sad and "serious face. Though young, deep lines emphasize an expression of much dignity and strength. He is a man of whom one can well believe it is often said: "Well, if Capt. Cable says so it is all right." Beside him, and equalling his scant six feet, was Capt. MacArthur, the ideal handsome young naval officer'. With such a father he might have had prefer ment and a ballroom future. But that was not to his liking, and on' leaving An napolis he volunteered immediately to take when she is put in commission. Only men who volunteer for the duty are ilaceM on board of a submarine boat. This service is the "extra hazardous" class, as a scared life insurance agent would say. MacArthur and Cable have become great friends during their few months ot acquaintance. The former is not inclined to take life as seriously as the other, but Cable's smiles are frequent when his friend drops into a spirit, of raillery. Their conversation was devoted almost entirely to the topic of submarine boats when the Adder and Moccasin will be finished In New Suffolk the Porpoise, Shark and Plunger a^ Nixon's, and the two boats, as yet unnamed, building in the Union Iron works,. San Francisco. Work on all of these boats is going on day and night, forty men being busy at New Suffolk. Of course they also talked of the probable -commanders of the other boats and wars and rumors of wars an the part they might be called upon to play some day. "The. old .men finished up the last war neatly and quickly," said Capt. MacAr thur, who had served, on the Vixen as a minor officer during the war, "but it looks as if young men "will have some thing to do with the next one, should it come. My crew for the Adder is now on the Windsor getting in training, and there isn't a man 6f them more than twenty-eight. The oldest man in Capt. Cable's crew is only thirty-one years, and it looks as if all the other command""?'the sinister ~Adder crews for the submarines will be young men." Though it was late the steward of the yacht here interrupted with a dinner, one rf the several appetizing courses-being swert fried scallops, for which the entire Peeonic bay region is so celebrated. "When do- you expect to make that Washington trip?" Capt. Cable was asked. 'Vrobably in the latter part at Febru ary. W will go outside all the way. I intend to carry ten men oh,that trip, in cluding Capt. MacArthur. who goes along to make a report on It,as an expert for the government. "How about that' trip abroad?" "Well," said the captain slowly, "it is being considered seriously. The Fulton, you know. Is not owned by the govern ment, and could go under yachting pa pers. I wouldn't have the slightest hesi tation in taking her. I would sooner .go on her .than on a liner. Should a storm come up, we can submerge at will until it is over. But before that trip is under- capacity. As shells now, she1 taKen she must have greater trave fueCan carryingl P&' miles under her own power, both elec w'frip and gasoline. We put it at 500 miles "l wont say a European trip i iliJ|TO0. sible," said Capt. MacArthur "but 1 would call it improbable. Still, we thought the Oregon's feat was improbable when she started for home, but she came all right as I seem to remember. More room could be made by taking out the .thirty five tons of storage battery in the Fulton and either putting in an improved and more compact battery, or more gasolene for the gas engines. No I am absolutely enthusiastic about these submarines and have full confidence in tttem and if Cable says- they can go across the ocean, I be lieve him. .In case of war that would be ja very easy thing to do. All we would (have to do would be to seal them .up, then tow them to a place of action or iaround the world if neeessary. This would save the crews, and put them on board absolutely fresh when their services are needed. Of course a trip across under her 'own power would be merely for exhibition purposes." '"!T:iat is what the ocean trip to Wash ington is for," said her commander. "It '.will be a final answerfoto-critics who say ^submarinees aren't seaworthy, though they ll intended harbo defense. ar Though we are going to carry ten men. .in case of a pinch two can run her.

I xperts have bv foole.dj regarding travel under water., They have insisted that we ian't travel beneath the surface as fast is we ean travel awash. The contrary is the tse. W can travel half again as fast with tbe )same power when sub merged: That's where the designer of :he Fulton upsets theorists. When under way on the surface the propeller makes hollow at either side of the sterm. into which the water is constantly trying to Tall. That makes a. pull or drag on any boat and holds her back. When we are submerged, say at the best' depth' of thir iy-Sve feet, there Is no sueh action* as on the surface. There are no hollows made ay the^-propeller to pall ns astern, and we go straight through a solid body of" watej With tbe Same power w"e can go, more than' half again as fast when sub- merged."-^ _-., l,f Another thing," Interrupted "Capt, MacArthur, "the Fulton doesn't sink, as that word is used ordinarily. Let me explain this. Through the ,five'Kingston valves in .the- bottom enough water is a&- eomlpetrtraents to.bring of sinking vpand would hardly dare say how long she coul&tf^^ remain unaer. "On the Washington trip, when about twenty miles* Off Sandy Hook,-1 intend to tubmerge the Fulton about thirty-five *eet below the surface.

W may submerge again in the Potomac (the cap tain always said "submerge," not "sink"* The water of that river is al ways bad, and when submerged there it as dark as Egypt until we turn on the lectrle lights." "What if-you should strike a sub merged derelict on your -trip 3" "What if an ocean liner should strike i submerged derelict? I think w would lave the better.chance, because the sub marines are built so that they would glance or slide off many objects.. But that contingency is so remote that it .sn't even thought of.

I ma de more than 500 dives in the old Holland, and the Fulton can i anything except climb trees- W are going to cut ice with her to-morrow. Come, it's time to turn in."

AS sne moved quicKiy out or ner dock under electric power and pointed, over the Kelpie's track the water rippled to the feet of the men standing.oh. deck. Below, down a hatch way just widr enough to admit a man's body freely, only the electric and gas engineers were needed. The boat seems decidedly roomy, at first glance, but that is only because she is all in one compartment. Every thing is open, and one can see from hei bow to her sternfrom the end of the torpedo chamber to the electric motor in' the stern. Despite the fact that owing to a blunder she had sunk^not long ago on Dec. i it washer interior was as bright and clean as a new pin. And, by the way, the mate, James Wilson, had a little experience the time that the Fulton sank that he ne\er told until on this trip. He told about it in a modest way, but it was evident that he had a fght for his life and only his cool head saved him. As the Fulton lay at her pier her stern, was raised to permit an examination of the muffler. This depressed her nose, as was expected, but what was not expected was that some one had left the torpedo valve open in the bow. Wilson was with in the boat at the time and as she began to fill he ran forward to try to climb to daylight, but the solid body of water pressing on the hatchway was too strong for him. As the Fulton sank she tilted a little to one side, then lay hard on the bottom. In perfect darkness the cool fel low stood straight np in the boat until his head touched the steel frame Every few feet there are ribs of steel about six J? his face 1 close and sideways to 'the shell of the boat he could breathe wtth some dlmculty and gasping, but still breathe." There he stood until the boat had filled as much as she could, the air cushions, of course, preventing her from filling completely. Then* in darkness, when he believed she had taken in all the water she could, he started for the ladder. It was only a short dive, as he knew right where it was, but never was there such a dive under such circumstances. passed up through the hatch, which he easily rr.ised, as pressure had been equal ized, through solid water and in a few moments was being congratulated by his friends above. They had counted exactly on what he would do, and decided not to send down after him, for fear of mixing things up with two men in the narrow hatchway. In another minute however, Charles Bechtold, the gunner, would have been after him, as he was stripped. Bechtold made his dive anywav, and with- Utile trouble closed the 'torpedo valve. The raising of the beat then was easy. Thus luckily ended .the only ac cident.' fwy4'' After the hero of the 'story had told it with the scahtest detail, Capt.

But the men on deck weren't thinking of ducks arid it is possible "they didn't ven glance at them. The power suddenly was changed to gasoline and the speeil in creased instantly, as the Fulton sprang iway under the stronger force. The elec tric motor is for use when submerged, and gives a speed of about six knots. Tln more powerful gasoline engine can's, be used long when the boat is under water, as it consumes about ten parts of aJ/ to one p'art of gasoline with every explosion in the cylinders. Gasoline is cheap enough, but air is mosf* precious when submerged, as' the men need a little of it for themselves. The speed had increased so rapidly that the deck was' awash with a vengeance, and the men in dry rubber boots glancd Inquiringly at the captain.

One of the men, however, efcto that the old propellor had given a speed of eight and a half knots awash, but b* thought the new one was pushing t Ful ton ahead at an easy ten knots. The Kelpie was fast being gained tar, but the Giralda, which had cut loose and came booming along behind at a fifteec knot gait, was overhauling the Fulton, when the little wonder took to the iae, which had formed three and four lnchs thick in the quiet-waters of Jessups Point and Hog's Neck Point and at a place op posite the upper end of Bobbin's island.
