ANOTHER BRITISH
CRUISER SUNK
BY SUBMARINE
GERMANS SEND THE HERMEs
TO THE BOTTOM.
PART OF CREW is RESCUED
Presence of Craft off French Coast
Menaces Franco British Fleet
Two Ships Of kaiser's Re-
ported Taken.

London, Nov. 2.-The enterprise OF
German submarines which have been
lurking along the French coast Oh
the Straits of Dover seeking to get
shot at British ships engaged in
bOmbarding the German positions in
Belgium was rewarded when one of
them attacked and sank the light
cruiser Hermes as she was returning
from Dunkirk. The greater part of
the crew was rescued.
From a naval viewpoint the Hermes
was Of no great value, but the fact
that she was attacked so near home
indicates that the German submarines
must have a base somewhere on that
part Of the Belgian coast which Is &C.
cupied by German troops from which
they can menace ships of the allies
passing between England and France.
How many submarines the Germans
have in these waters is not known, but
several Of them have been seen re-
Gently.
The Hermes was a light cruiser Of
the Highflyer type and was provided
for In the naval estimates for 1900
1901. The Hermes' displacement was
$500 tons, with 10,000-horsepower and
maximum speed of 20 knots. Her
main armament consisted Of IL six
inch guns and two torpedo tubes
Two Cruisers Captured?
A dispatch to the Post from Sydney,
New South Wales, says it is reported
that the German cruisers Scharnhorst
and Gneisenau have been captured
as a result OF the failure of their coal
supply.
The Scharnhorst and Gneisenau are
sister ships of the battle cruiser type

Tahiti, the principal city of the Soci.

U. S. EXPECTS ATTACK
MExIcANs MENACE FuNsToN'S
TROOPS AT VERA CRUZ.
Both carranxa and Villa Leaders De-
'mand That American Force Be
Withdrawn From Port.

Washington, Nov, 2.-The war de.
paTtment finds itself facing new
crisis In Mexico. Word conveyed to
this department within the last TWEEN
ty-four hours reveals an acute situa-
ton that may demand an immediate
reinforcement OF troops under the
command of General Funston at Vera
Cruz. ,..
The leaders OF the villa and Car
rama forces who are fighting for SUI
premacy in the Aguas Calientes con.
vention are insisting that United
States soldiers be withdrawn from
Mexico. They are getting irritated
over the stern supervision of Mexican
arairs undertaken by this govern
ment.
An Official of the war department
admitted secretly to the, International
News Service correspondent that with
neither Villa nor Carranza willing to
assure the United States that it's citi-
gems will be protected and the Aguas
Calientes convention ignoring the
matter, juncture has arisen that
may lead to serious trouble.
The United States win not with
draw its troops unless sufficient
guaranty OF protection is given by
the Mexican leaders or by the conven-
ton which is to decide their suprem.
acy, If the Mexicans, as now seems
likely, maintain their stubborn atti,
tude, clash of the two governments
Is anticipated within weeks time.
While reports published by the
Army and Navy Journal that the
United States government has already
started to move troops to REINFORCE
General Funston were declared here
to be inaccurate, 1t was frankly stat.
ed that this government is ready to
act upon word from Funston that such
move is necessary.
The truth is, as given to the CORE,
spondent, that an attack upon Funs,
ton is expected most any day. If 1t
comes the government will hurry
enough troops to make stout resist.
ance.
Funston himself has reported to the
war department that there. is. always
danger that he may be attacked.

ALBERT SEEKS AlDIl
APPEALS TO v. s. TO SAVE
PEOPLE FROM STARVING. .
King Declares That His Subjects viii
- Suffer This Winter II Food
10 Not Given.

London. Nov. ALBERT, king 81
the Belgians, has asked the American
people through the American commits.
sion for relief In Belgium to help feed
his starving people during the win
ter ,..l .s. .
The kings message. written under
fire, In the battle before Dunkirk. fol-
lows: ''.. >..- tn .a.r:. -,
Il am informed that American Off,
Gals and citizens in Belgium and Eng
land are working to save my people
from the horrors of the famine which
now threatens them Despite all that
can be done the suffering in the COM
Ing. winter will be terrible, but the
burden we must bear will be Hight
enedS If my people can be spared the
pangs OF hunger with It's frightful con
sequences OF disease and violence
The whole-hearted friendship of Amer
lea shown my people at this time al
way will be a precious memory"
The American commission for re,
lief in Belgium Is the only channel
through which food can be introduced
into Belgium. H. c, Hoover, chair
man OF the commission, which has
headquarters in London. makes the
following appeal to all American
newspapers:
I'VE have received reports from
members of this commission who
we're sent into Belgium. Their re-
ports show that there are still some
seven million people in Belgium. In
many centers the people are receiv-
Ing an allowance of little more than
three ounces Of -four per capita daily.
This is not question Of charity
o rreliet to the chronically poor-it is
q question OF feeding an entire popu-
lation. The situation affects the
wealthy and well-to-do as well as the
poor. It touches every home in Bel
gium. Our experts say that In order
to avoid actual starvation Belgium
must have every month minimum of
10000 tons OF wheat, $4,000 tons of
corn, 5000 tons of peas or beans, and
a limited amount OF bacon or lard.
All this will cost 100000 or $4,000.
600 monthly.
"A plan may be devised whereby
such Belgians as possess property
may give obligations to pay when the
war ends, but even If we could real
ize on these obligations we must still
have at least s2,5OO,OO0 monthly.
During the last week we have re-
ceived and expended 100000, and
yet this is only four days supply. The
problem is immediate. The Relgians
are helping themselves, but they can
do little. The British and French are
under such a strain that they also
can do little.
p Americans must feed Belgium this
winter. There never was such call
on American charity, and there never
was a famine emergency so great"
