The invention consists of a floater sent up from the submarine and rising tothe surface. To this floater a line is attached, by means of which wire with 'a special coupling con~ trivance and lifting chain are sent: down to the submarine and automatically attached to the hull, thus. enabling the rescuing ship to lift it to the surface.—Reuter.
