Fig. 63. (tipper) Our first concern is with the steel cable, but when a quarter-mile has 

 been run out we find it as strong and clean of rust as when new. It has a breaking strain 

 of twenty-nine submerged bathyspheres, so we cease to worry on this score. Fig. 64. (lower) 

 The Arcturiis winch is in place, the cable wound tightly ready for slow or rapid reeling or 

 unreeling. This cable is seven-eighths inch, with a steel core and about one hundred strands, 

 made especially for this purpose.
