"The principal object of the invention is to provide a simple, economical and efficient electrically-controlled torpedo. A further object of the invention is to provide a torpedo with electrically-activated mechanisms which may be controlled by an operator stationed at a distance from the torpedo either on the shore or upon another vessel, the torpedo and the mechanism therein contained being constructed in such a manner as to be operated directly and controlled by such operator from the shore by means of hat are known to science as "electrical oscillations" or "Hertz electric waves"…
