BRITISH STUDY " GERMAN U-BOAT

LONDON. Jan. 9. One of the German U-boats which has been brought tin the Thames to Westminster Pier

for London to see is the latest type of submarine and is equipped with devices that are being studied with interest by naval experts. This boat Is the U-C95, one" of the few mine laying eubmarmes in existence. She was built only about three months ago. Six deep wells, covered with grating hold three mines each, ready for immediate release. At the ship's bow is a net cutting apparatus, a sharp saw arrangement running up at an angle, and also down into the water. In all there are ten sharp blades. If the upper saw fails' to lift it up so that the obstruction slides along the vessel's aerial wires. By means of this contrivance it is believed that U-boats were enabled now and then to pierce the allies' barrage. One 22 pounder gun and two torpedo tubes are the craft's fighting equipment. There are two periscopes and also an arrangement for the purpose of attracting help in time of danger. This is a buoy fitted with red lights.
