Excerpt from Torpedo War, and Submarine Explosions N View of the prominent part played in the present World War by torpedoes and submarines, the subject of our extra N 0. 35 is peculiarly timely. The original of 1810 is very scarce, only one copy having been sold at auction in many years: nor are copies to be found in any but a few of our libraries. Fulton's claims for his invention have been fully substantiated and some of his predictions, made more than a century ago, are remarkably interesting, in view of the events of the past five months. His estimate of our population in 1920 has already been exceeded in fact, and only his plan of affix ing torpedoes to their prey by means of harpoons seems - for it was made in the days of wooden ships - fantastic, in these days of iron clads. He could not foresee that almost exactly a century would elapse before his invention would be extensively used though he cautiously says it is impossible to foresee to what de gree torpedoes may be improved and rendered useful. In the J oline collection of autograph letters, sold this month, was an extremely interesting letter of Fulton's, addressed to Gen. William Duane. A part reads.
