Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
LEBANON, Ind, March 1S-The large
Touring mill and elevator owned by l. F.
Adney. his son, Earl Adney, and John Walk
er, doing business as /. f. Adney & Co.,
caught fire about IL o'clock tonight and in
hour was destroyed. The loss is estimat-
ed at between $4,000 and $4,000. with insur-
ance of $4,000 on the building and $1,000 on
the stock. No decision has been reached on
the question of rebuilding
The fire started on the third floor and
is supposed to have originated from a hot
journal. The firemen were unable to pre-
vent the destruction of the building and
devoted most Of their efforts to preventing
the spread of the flames TO adjoining resi-
dence property and to the business part of
town, but a block away. Blazing embers
were carried by the wind all over the busi-
ness part of the city, but damage re-
suited.
The contents of the building were de-
stroysd. They consisted of upward of 40
600 pounds Of -four. about 5000 bushels of
wheat, from 500 to 500 bushels OF corn and
considerable quantities of oats, feed and
screenings.

SUBMARINE BOAT SUNK
AND ELEVEN LIVES LOST
Struck by Steamer, Which Re
ported She Had Run Into
Torpedo.
NO CHANCE FOR ESCAPE
Crew Perished in Steel Tomb
Their Boat Was Lying in
Wait for Enemy.

PORTSMOUTH March 1S-The British
submarine boat No. Al was run down and
sunk off the Nab lightship to-day by DON
ald-Currie liner and eleven persons were
drowned, including Lieutenant Mansergh
the senior officer engaged in submarine
work The liner passed on and reported
that she had struck a torpedo.
At the time she was struck the vessel was
off the lghtship engaged in the maneuvers
and was lying in seven fathoms of water
waiting the approach of a battleship.
The boat was one of the newest of the
fleet of submarine vessels and was built
from the latest models, but she has always
been a bad diver. She was inspected re-
Gently by both King Edward and the Prince
of Wales
1t learned tonight that the name
of the Donald Currie liner which struck
the submarine boat is the Berwick Castle
from East London, South Africa. The loss
of the boat was not known for some hours
after the liner had reported to the ma
neuvering fleet that she had struck a tor
pedo. The officers of the liner say that
they saw glistening torpedo-like hull in
the water and 1T is supposed therefore,
that the submarine boat rose Just before
she was struck The officers of the fleet
did not suppose for the moment that the
submarine Mad been struck and continued
operations, expecting that vessel to reap
pear at some other point. Finally search
was made and the breaking of the waves
revealed the presence of the submarine
boat.
There is no doubt that all the members
of the crew died in their steel tomb 1t
is presumed that the Berwick Castle in
striking, upset the trim of the boat and
spilled the gasoline in her tanks, rendering
her helpless. The crew were battened down
and must have met their terrible fate from
suffocation in the absence of air and ow-
ing to the fumes of the gasoline.
