The Allan Torpedo Boat.

The submarine torpedo boat invented by Mr 0. Seymour Allan, of Sydney, and which the British Government has been advised to purchase if it comes up to the claims of the inventor, has lately been exhibited at Melbourne. Two difficulties to overcome are sup plying the vessel with air when sub merged, and giving her self-contained powers of movement. Neither of the ways by which they are to be grappled with wan illustrated on this occasion ; the model had no passengers, and her movements were all directed by wire from above water. Nevertheless, Mr Allan claims to have solved the whole problem, Placed m the water the little three feet model—which for the purposes of the trial had to be con nected with a pliant electric cable to a shore battery, was the perfection of a craft built for speed, and the inventor regards 60 knots an hour as one of the possibilities from a full-sized boat. Only a slight fin appeared above water, and on one touch of an electric key the little boat sank out of sight, and being lit up with electricity on the instant she sank, the onlookers were able to see her going down and resting on the bottom of the baths m eight feet of water. Another turn of the key, and just as promptly she rose evenly and steadily to tne surface again. " She will do anything you tell her," said the inventor ; and the model sank and rose by the head or stern as re quired, was submerged to depths of two feet, three feet, or four feet as required, and there either remained stationary or was driven about, reversed, and manoeuvred while keeping her depth. Admiral Bowden Smith on seeing the trial m Sydney said, " If you can build a full-sized boat to do the same work as the model you not only have a huge fortune at command, but you will re volutionise naval warfare." The boat carries torpedoes both m the bow and stern, and the facility for rising slightly either by the head or stern is, of course, invaluable m discharging a torpedo at the bottom of a ship which the boat may be approaching or leav ing. A full-sized vessel would be about eighty feet long, with a displace ment of 127 ton Mr Allan commenced with a very rude model and clJbkwork as the motive power. It was on the suggestion of Mr Edward Manville, M.1.E.E., that he applied electricity, and he has worked nearly thirteen years m bringing it to its present perfection, at a cost, all told, of not less than £7000. The full-sized boat woud cost about £10,000 to build, but the amount is infinitesimal as compared with the outlay on the iron mammoths it is intended to destioy. Mr Allan does not intend to take his invention abroad. His idea is to build a full-sized vessel here, go down m her, take her through the Heads, and torpedo a hulk at sea, without givxug anyone on shore an idea of his where abouts.
