SUBMARINE QUEST
PROVES FRUITLESS
Sea Dragged All Day, but No
Trace of the Unfortunate
Craft Is Found.

Plymouth, Jan l7-An all-day search
By a feet of torpedo boats. 10 which
were attached cables 10 sweep the bottom
of Withstand Bay. failed to locate the
sunten British submarine At. When
darkness fell the commanding officer re-
luctantly ordered the vessels 10 return
10 their moorngs.
Although hope OF any OF the crew being
alive was long ago given up-six hours
being the maximum time they could
breathe after the ship sank-the search
will be resumed on Sunday at daylight
The search has been made more DIM
cult by the fact that the buoy which
the parent ship placed when the subma-
rine was missed was driven out TO sea,
and it is believed that the submarine It.
self drfted and probably lies at depth
OF thirty fathoms.
Many theories have been put forward 10
account for the accident. AT. with Az.
had been ordered TO attack destroyer
with torpedoes A-9 fired hers. but Al did
not. Nothing has been heard OF the AZ
since, and il Is believed that the ma
chinery got out OF order or the men were
overcome by gas.
The submarine Al was one OF only
three vessels of her class remaining In
the regular fiotilla The others are being
utilized for purposes of instruction.
Commander Powers Symington, naval
attache OF the American Embassy. called
at the Admiralty to-day TO express regret
on behalf Of the United States Navy De-
partment.
Lieutenant Gilbert Molesworth Welman,
who commanded the Al. was the nephew
of Lady Wordsworth, whose death from
the sting of a wasp occurred on Septem-

Big SALARIES TO
BASEBALL PLAYERS
PAID BY FEDERALS

more, president of the Federal Base
ball League, came to the defence Of
that league and baseball players in
general today, in response to the state
ment of B. B. Johnson, head OF the
American League, that money greed
may become the curse of baseball
THE truth is, said Gilmore, that
the public realizes that for more than
20 years organized baseball has held
its players in a state of peonage While
the club owners have massed large
fortunes.
