SUBMARINE PLUV|0SE
Examination, When Low Tide Re
vcaIcd Wreck, Revealed "a Rent
Fifteen Feet Long in Stern.

Calais, France. June 1.-THE manner
OF the sinking OF the French sub
marine Pluvlose was revealed today
when the superstructure emerged at
low tide A rent 10 feet long and >
feet wide was found in the stern where
the submarine had been struck by the
channel steamer Pas DE Calais. Two
bodies were recovered before the ris-
ing tide again closed over the wreck.
The Pluviose was sunk with her crew
OF 81 men in the English channel two
miles oft the French coast on May 20.
Since that time wreckers have been en-
gagged at every high tide In towing the
submarine ashore. II was impossible
TO raise the wreck to the surface.
Today in the shallow water Of the
Jetty the superstructure rose TO view
and the first thorough examination was
possible. The body of Helmsman Lee
Breton, clad in oilskins was found at
his post I'm the steering tower. The
trapdoor leading from the tower to the
compartment below was closed,
a second body had been recovered
when the returning tide forced the
suspension OF operations.
As II is now established that the
hull IL filled with water. holes will be
drilled through the plates to make pos
sible the removal OF the other bodies.
The funeral for the lost crew will b
attended by President Fallieres and
the rablnet.

Como. Italy June 1.-THE police
are trying to solve the mysterious
murder OF an American woman be-

He'd Immediately after the murder.
There is no authoritative statement as
10 who he Is.
The post norton examination OF the
body was made today. This revealed
that tho woman died from suffocation.
IL was found there were wounds on
the head sufficient TO render her un-
conscious. but they were not regarded
as Of a nature TO cause death. The
victim apparently expired some time
after she had been placed in the
trunk as the wrapping had been done
with strip of cloth and the body
was put into the trunk along with
some letters and personal effects. IL
was these latter articles which led 70
identification.
Aside from the wounds disclosed at
the post norton. the body showed
certain abnormal conditions on which
the doctors reserved expression of an
opinion.
The police Investigations show that
the trunk and its contents were found
to be too heavy to be carried to the
lake by ono person and that the indi-
vidual who first attempted this task
called 10 his assistance an accomplice.
The steps OF both men were heard
when they loft the villa carrying a

husband and the circumstances OF
brutality developed by the post NOR

absorbing interest.
