UNABLE TOFL0AT TORPEDO BOAT

Norfolk, Va, October 2S.-Futile efforts were made today to float the United States torpedo boat destroyer Pauiding, in Lynn Haven bay by d storm which swept the Virginia coast
 The vessel is imbedded in five feet of sand which has made 1t inadvisable for tugs to use too much force in pulling at the stranded destroyer. it being feared that its light hull would not stand the strain.
 Marine men here believed tonight that the only hope of freeing the Paulding lay in efforts to dredge the sand from around her hull. Powerful submarine blow pipes and pumps were taken to the scene today for that purpose
 The vessel listed several degrees when 1t struck the sand bar. according to op- servers who have returned from the scene This has increased the difficulties in the way of floating It.
 A part of the Paulding's crew of S4 men was taken aboard the auxiliary cruiser Panther today. The latter, to- gether with the naval tugs Hercules and Massasoit, were beside the destroyer all day.
 In addition to the Paulding, the destroy CTS Cassin, McDougal. Cummings, Dryn- ton, Mccall, Burrows. Patterson, Ammen, Trippe, Tanning, Jenkins, Beale and Jouett were at anchor in the bay when the storm struck them with terrific force, the wind reaching velocity of 70 miles an hour
 The frail vessels could make no head way against the storm and, in addition to the Paulding, the Burrows and Jouett were driven ashore. but later got off. Sew eral of the others lost their anchors. The Burrows and Jouett are now at the navy yard here for repairs.
 The Paulding is accounted one of the finest destroyers in the navy. It is 2S9 feet long, 2614 feet wide and in her speed trials developed 32:S0 knots an hour. Its engines have horse power capacity of 17,39S. The construction of the vessel was begun at Bath, Me. in 1908, it having been put in commission two years later.

Cavalry Performs Wonders

The cavalry of the allies are perform ing marvels of endurance One regi- ment took part in 10 encounters in q single day. at the same time covering g more than 40 miles of ground. The other detachments are doing equally well. Their orders are to hold the Germans back and worry them night and day. but they have also developed an offensive movement of their own and have succeeded in driving the Ger mans on to the reserves.
 The allies artillerymen have success fully adopted a ruse to prevent the German aviators from discovering the position of their batteries. They keep piles of brushwood near their guns and when German areoplane is signalled the brushwood is placed over the guns and the men lie down beneath it or take shelter in the trees. where they re- main immovable. until the airman has passed out of sight.
 Eight French cannon put IS German three-inch guns out of action in a half an hour between the Aisne and the Disc, and prevented the Germans from effecting plan to cut communications.
 Prior to this the French and German cavalry fought minor action, in which the Germans were repulsed
