In spite: of these circumstances which might "mislead those who have seen them, it is fairly clear from the photographs which have been taken of them that they are ve sels of about 230 ft. in length, With regard to their spead it has been pointed out by a Mr. Chase that the result of model experi 28th Aug. atlla..ment indicates that the re 17th Sept.
