distance of almost three hundred miles, under her own power, and arrived safely in a home port.

Through the courtesy of the British Admiralty, I was permitted to see this submaring and talk with her ofheers and She is in harbour, with her bow pluting torm into strips and two of her torpedo- Aubes crushed. Her plates are crumpled two of her bulkheads are broken away at the bow; bat in her tubes are two unex- ploded turpedoes. Their ensing is twisted and stayed it, and the rear doors of them are jammed But the quality of the high explosive in her torpedoes and the mechanism controlling it prevented an explosion, thus saving her from total destruction.
