caused the vessel to reach depth at which the external pressure would become too great, and destruction would quickly follow. The great size of the sub marines naturally makes their manage- ment when diving more difficult than in the case of smaller submarines. This is one of the chief technical problems that have to be solved in increasing the size of submarines.

*

A class submarines. some of which have been in commission more than four years, have frequently dived in deep water and- have been operated safely during the war The ovidence of the commanding officers of the other submarines in company with Ks on this occasion indicates that there was nothing in the weather conditions to make diving a matter of any unusual risk,

beyond this the Court of Inquiry had no evidence whatever upon which to base definite conclusiona Those who alone could have, élicidated the mystery perished.

The theory put forward by Rear Admiral S... Hall on the day following the news of the disaster appears to be officially accepted as the most probable explanation. This distinguished officer, whose experience of submarine work has been long and intimate, conceives that the unfortunate vessel took too deep a plunge, and that she collapsed under the pressure of water upon her shell. The fact that oil and wreckage wore discovered upon the surface where she was last seen amount to conclusive evidence that her hull was breached.
