EXIT THE DESTROYER.

USURPED BY THE SUBMARINE

LONDON, Jan. 12. The naval .correspondent of The Times says: yTlie'^expected has happened ; the subniarine has taken, the place- of the "'destroyer 'as the torpedoer. The;loss.of the FprmidabJe proves^ that in 'addition ~'to working by stealth in daylight the submarine can boldly sally forth on the surface of the water at night, protected by her comparative invisibility, and search for a target. At present the submarines appear to work singly; later they may hunt in packs." .
