The men aboard the attacked ship have no warning of their impending death except a thin sheaf of water that folloAVS on the surface in the wake of the submerged torpedo and which lasts only an instant. By a compressed air arrangement motive power is furnished the torpedo in transit for its propellers. A gyroscope keeps it on a plane and upright. A s...triker on the nose of the torpedo is released by a fan which revolves in the water. The nose of the 216 THE MERCILESS MACHINERY OF WAR torpedo strikes the side of the battleship and the compact jars the primer of fuhninate of mercury. The high explosive of gunpowder forces out a shell and explodes with it after the shell has penetrated the armor. Then the work is done.
