VALUE OF TORPEDOES.
"Comparatively Inefficacious"
L
"Lo Yacht" gives a valuable summary of a report by the French naval constructor,
Ferrand, dealing with the injuries from: torpedoes sustained in the various actionis in the East. Based as it is on to Intest T. MATSUKI, Manager, Bougkong, and most accurate information, it theds an

torpedo, and certainly suggests that against undamaged ships in motion this wespou has comparitively little efficacy. Thus, after the battle of August 10th, tho Russian fleet retiring on Port Arthur was attacked by 40 torpedo-hosts, but the only hit was one on the Poltava, which had to be taken in low as lier engines were damaged and her rudder broken, At Taushina the ships torpedoed had all i hean proviously much injured. The Sou veroff went down after being struck by two Whiteheads; the Navarin was hit by four simultaneously, and immediately went to the bottom; while the Sissoi Veliky was also hit twice, but did not sink for many hours. The Nakhimoff and Vladmir Mono- mach were put out of action by torpedoes, but they, too, kept aflast for some time after their injuries, and were not improb- ably sunk by their crews to present their capture.

M. Ferrand, however, does not entirely support the view that the torpedo is played out as a menace. The Japanese boats, he romarks, attacked with but little order, and fired their torpedoes at much too great a distance. Now in the German flotillas the orders given are to close to the shortest range and not to fire before they are (within 200 yards of the ship attacked. An attack recently made under similar condi- Sons by one of the British fotillas on the Channel feet was remarkably successful; indeed, according to report, cight battle- ships were topedoed. Of course, there was no fire to be met by the boats, so that one of the most important elements in actual war was winting. It is worth attention that, according to Mr Hislam, the personnel of the Gernmn torpedo. flotillas have the closest possible knowledge of the mooring for British warships at Sheerness, and even of the dead angles for the guns in the British coast defences.
