The salvage vessel Orphir, which has been lying in the Prince of Wales Dock, Swansea, has taken on board equipment specially designed to assist in the search. Capt. Russell is con- fident that success will come within the next few weeks.

The Orphir will sail tomorrow to resume the search off the Old Head of Kinsale with a set of tor- pedo electric magneta dealgned by Mr. Malcolm M. Irvine, of Glas- gow.

These magnets will be trailed.at the end of steel cables from booms on either side of the vessel when she is searching. It is claimed that the instant they drag over a wreck they will be attracted to the metal hull, and an electric impulse will be transmitted to an apparatus on the bridge of the Orphir.

The ringing of an electrice bell will signal that contact has been made with a wreck.
