A buoyant safe that, la case of dialater, will float to the surfaces as the ship with which it lo equipped sinks into the tower dopiks of the sea, has been invented by four mechanics in the Puget Sound Navy Yard, who have devoted their spare time in the past e's years to par fection of the device. The four, of whom A. F. Shepherd a reuldent of Charleston for eight, years, la the leading spirit, have patented the device in the United States and the principal

have reconstructed and simplified their invan- tion and declare that it now in ready to be put to practical use.
The safe, a large cyllader of steel, is divided into two compartments, the upper one an air chamber that will give the requirad buoyancy and the lower a receptacle for the ship's papers,. registered mall and such valuables and mozer se usually are placed in the cars of the purser by passengers. The device wiil rost in a sbuft alloy, cas deck la depth, on alther side of which will be nogle bawa'to gaido the wife out of the vesnei as the latter founders. The bottom of the shaft and bulkheads surrounding it will ba constructed so as to adult the water under the Baťo as the invading Brod risas in the hull. The safe done will be watertight and fastened. with the regulation combination lock.
The possibility of the device becoming ob. stracted in its passage from the shaft has been eliminated by the simplicity of the lareation. It will be attached to the ship:by a cable, one to thron miles in langib, that will run out as the boat sinks and lo this way the site will indicate ths polol at which the boat lles on the sub marias foor, “
'As viewed from the deck, the appearance of the safe will be similar to that of a manhole in the street, the top of the air compartment alone, will be visible. In case of a boat already built and in which, therefore, construction of an air
shaft would necessitate some remodelling, the total cost, including installation, the Inventors estimate, would not exceed £1,000. The safe can be built in boy sixa desired and will be of burglar-proof steel,
A safd forty-algbt inches to diameter, six feet long, and welgblog 1550 pounds will carry 3,000 pounds of matter in the lower compart ment and still retain a buoyancy of 1,100 | pounds, which would be equal to about sixteen inches of freeboard above water,
WILL BAYE ALL VALUABLES. In case of shipwreck," said Shepherd, "our Invention will preserve the weasel's papers, manifest, passenger list, valuables of passen. | gers, registered mall money or specia la tranalt and also correct and do away with bardentoma insurance and underwriting. '16 also will give proof positive of the pressnice ́of paindogera aboard and simplify the settlement of estates. Had such a safe been aboard the steamboat 'Diz' at the time she was soak in a collision In the Seattle barbour the vessel could have been located and brought to the surface at
once.
"The steamship Islander' lies at the bot tom of the ocean in 200 feet of water four miles from Juneau with $780,000 in treasure aboard. The depth at which divats are effective, in ra* covering submerged wrecks does not exceed 100 feet. If the * Jolander * hid brea equipped with a buoyant device, such as our own, the treasure would have been savad,
"In the wreck of the stormship Dakota,' of the Great Northern lice, all the mail want dowo with the boat, causing an enormous loss to the Government. More of the mall over was recovered. Au ordinary bulk, provided with our buoyant marine device, would be 100 per cent, safar for e rrying valuables and mail than the best ship ever constructed If the latter were equipped with the ordinary safe. Millions in treasure are at the bottom of the ocean and out of circulation for all time as a result of the
antiquared custom of suchoring valuables in
wrecks.
in handling the Alaskan mails, the post office is burdened with the responsibility for cause shippers wish to be secured sgalast los millions in treasure and money each year, ba-
and to escape the charges both of express and Insurance companies. The skipper throws the liability on the post office department wherever the opportunity offers, In every cate where mall lost the Government brings sult for re covery, but never rucceeds in collecting from the bondsmen of the carrier.
"All there evils would be remedied by the ase of the buoyant safe.”
Shepherd and his associates have brought beir invention to the attention of the American Department of Commerce and Labatır.
They also have palented a buoy, for sub. marines that is based on the same principle as the fa If any accident that would send the submarine to the bottom, the baoy, which will be attached to the bost by a cabin, can be released and, on rising to the surface, will show where the vossal lies. As each submarine is accompanied by a tander, this, it is stated, ofter would prevent loss of life. A sinhmatiné is no. light that it can be ralend by a tag with an ordinary anchor Holst,
