NO OFFICIAL WORD OF SUB CONTINUED FROM PACE ONE1 years of age. He was married eleven months ago and has a five weeks old son.

Manay of ths others of, the crew are married, one petty orncer, George Morgan, hag a family ot seven children, the oldest eleven years snd the youngest two months. Tbs depth ot tne water at tne point the Is reported to have been located da about 240 reel, and experts express doubt as to whether the submarine can withstand the pressure at that depth. While there should bs a sufficient supply of air In the boat to support life for, two or three days, no oil has been found on the surface, as might have been expected if any of the crew were alive and able to release It. Heavy Seas At the Admiralty It was said this morning that nothing could bs added to the brief statement 'e" terday that the had gone out with the submarine flotilla In a strong wind and boisterous seas and that there was nothing to suggest the element of danger In the vessel arrylne out ths prescribed tactical exercises. It is presumed that the Is lying in about 180 feet of water.

which is arinroxlmately the deptn at which the divers found the British submarine 24, which was sunk In a collision with a warship off Portland in Jnnuary, 1924. It was found Impossible to raise the 24. and It is assumed that the must ho left lying where she now rests, with ber crew entombed Inside her, Launched in 1918 The was launched In 1918 as the 18. The crnft was based on a design of Admiral Lord Fisher. It was originally Intended to operate with the North Sea fleet, and.

it is understood, to employ It in penetrat Ing the Baltic sea with a view to outflanking the German navy; but according to general report. It was ultimately decided not to employ the in the war lest the Germans, none of whose submarines carried 12 lncb gun such as was mounted on the British boat, might copy the design and use It in bombarding towns along the English const. The class, to which the belonged, has been generally unlucky. Three of them were sunk with the loss of all hands, and three others also went to the bottom. The Washington naval treaty pre cludes any but capital ships carry ing guns a rove the eight Inch calibre.

Therefore no more submarines are to be built for big guns like that of the which fired an S50 nound shell and which weighed 4 tons.
