SUBMARINE FIRED TORPEDO AND WAS MOVING AWAY BEFORE
 SHE WAS DISCOVERED.
Survivors Think Magazine Waa Struck-Submarine Waited For Some Time For Other Warships.

l Aberden, Scotland. Oct. 17.-Sur
 vivors of the British cruiser Hawke
 which was sunk yesterday by Ger
 man submarine, say the presence O a submarine in the vicinity of the cruiser was unknown until the peri scope of the boat was detected nov ing away The Hawke sank in five minutes and hundreds of men, some of them in cork jackets and others hanging to pieces of wreckage, were scattered about in the water.

 T was on the forenoon watch" said one of the stokers. Someone was the chorus when the Hawke was struck. The snip immediately started to cant over. When l reached the deck the captain was calling: It's everybody for himself
 T jumped overheard and managed to keep afloat, although the water was bitterly cold until picked up by the only boat that there was time to launch. For time we rowed around picking up men, but the boat was soon crowded, and beyond throwing life belts to the men in tine water we could do no more"
 Another survivor said:
 'irhe torpedo must have struck the magazine, for there was terrible ex- plosion and the ship rose as if she had gone on rock Boats and rafts were rendered useless even if there had been time to launch them The submarine hung around for some time, probably expecting there might be a repetition of the Aboukir. Hogue. Greasy affair. great number of men must have been killed by the ex. plosion"
 Two members Of the engine room staff of the Hawke said the torpedo found it's mark close to one of the magazines. The explosion was ter Tible.
 A small cutter was launched and small team pinnace and raft pre- pared for such an emergency floated off when the Hawke sank, but the men on board the raft could not sur vive owing to the cold"
 We never saw the submarine" said one man, until after the explo, sion, when something like broom stick appeared above the water"
 Still another survivor said it was impossible to man the guns owing to the heavy list, though an attempt was made to do so. The captain, the commander and midshipman were on the bridge, giving orders as calmly as. if at fleet maneuvers in the Solent. They disappeared when the ship went down.

ENGLISH LOSS IS LIGHT
One Officer and Four Men Wounded in Sea Encounter While German War.

London, Oct. 17.-7:50 p. m.-The British navy has accounted for four more German destroyers which were engaged and sunk off the Dutch coast this afternoon by British cruiser and four torpedo boat destroyers.
 According to an announcement made by the secretary of the British admiralty. the British vessels in the action were the light cruiser Un- daunted and the torpedo boat destroy CTS Lance, Lennon, Legion and Loyal
 Thus the British sailors have taken speedy revenge for the sinking of the British cruiser Hawke by a subma- rine Thursday
 The sinking of the four warships to, day makes six torpedo boat destroy CTS sent to the bottom by British gun fire since the beginning of the war and seven, counting the torpedo boat destroyer sunk by the submarine E-9.
 The score in naval operations, with out counting converted merchantmen such as the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse and the Cap Trafalgar, now favors the allies, which have sunk one Austrian and six German cruisers and seven German torpedo boat de- stroyers, while there have been un- confirmed reports of the sinking of several Austrian destroyers in the Ad- riatic sea
 The Germans have sunk eight Brit ish and one Russian cruiser while Australia has lost a submarine by accident. The Russians also claim to have sunk two German submarines but this the Germans deny.
 Up to this afternoon Berlin had not heard officially of the sinking of the British cruiser Hawke which indi- cates that the submarine which ac- complished it has not yet returned to port.
 The admiralty announces that the British loss in the engagement Satur- day off the Dutch coast in which four German torpedo boat destroyers were sunk, one officer and four men were wounded. The damage to the British destroyers was slight.
 The announcement adds:
 ''There were 31 German survivors, prisoners of war"

 '"The Russian force is now reduced to 4000 men-the last fragment of the great army which penetrated Hungary. Small forces may still be in the forests, but they surrender without resistance when caught"

WAR SUM MARY

While the armies of the allies and the German invaders are pre- pairing their mighty lines stretch ing from the Belgian coast south ward for a great battle the ships of war in the North sea again are showing activity. The British have revenged the sinking of the cruiser Hawke by a German sub marine, with a swift descent upon four German torpedo boat de- stroyers, which they sent to the bottom.
 Captain Cecil II. Fox, who was commander of the ill-fated cruis- CT Amplion destroyed by a Ger man mine on August 6, was in command of the light cruiser Un- daunted and the four British tor pedo boat destroyers Lance, Len nox, Legion and Loyal, which en- gagged the Germans off the Dutch coast The battle must nave been fast, for the British had only one officer and four men wounded, while the official report issued by the admiralty says 31 survi- vors of the German destroyers are prisoners of war. This would mean that nearly 400 Germans went down with their ships
 In the land fighting the British troops have captured Frommelles, an important position southwest of Lille, on the French left, while the French commander has been receiving aid from sailors of the French fleet on the important strategic position between Ypres and the sea.
 The latest British casualty list includes among the killed Major General Herbert l. w. Hamilton, who was closely associated with Field Marshal Kitchener in South Africa and India.
 Winston Spencer Churchill, first lord of the British admiralty, declares that the sending of the British naval brigades to Ant werp was part of a large opera tion for the relief of the city. and that their withdrawal was not because of any attack by the Germans but in obedience to the general strategical situation"

Hawke Survivors Landed.

London, Oct. 17.-5:3S D. m.-The survivors of the British cruiser Hawke which sank in five minutes after being torpedoed by a German submarine in the North sea Thursday escaped in a single boat which they managed to launch. They later were picked up by a Norwegian steamer and were brought to Aberdeen by a steam trawler today
 Their boat was so crowded that nothing could be done to save the men who were floating in the water.
 The periscope of the attacking sub marine, they said, disappeared imme- diately after the explosion.

Berlin, Oct 17-4 D. m.-Via The Hague and London, Oct 1S.-1 a. m It is officially reported that there is no marked change in the French the ater of the war.
 Prince Oscar, son of the emperor who was obliged some weeks ago to withdraw from his regiment on ac- count of a heart affection, is not showing satisfactory progress. An ex- animation has disclosed a rather seri ous condition of the heart muscles and the prince must remain under treatment for some time. Prince Oscar is now at Hamburg, where the empress has visited him.

It is quite likely the state or the roads prevent either side from making any advance and that t1ev VIII be compelled to wait until the ground has frozen before striking their real blows.
 Prevents German Mobilization.
 From the allies standpoint, the de- lay in the eastern theater of war is important, for it prevents the Ger. mans from sending endorsements "a the west. The inhabitants of Poland apparently are giving the Germans some trouble and are reported to have organized marauding parties which While they cannot do much damage to an army can interfere with it's com by destroying roads and bridges.
 Mines, and the stopping of neutral steamers are causing much annoy ance to neutral countries. Followina the examples of Germany and Eng. land, Russia is sowing mines in the Baltic, while the Germans are said to have placed these dangerous ma chimes in the Scheldt which is Dutch water. The Adriatic, too, has been mined, and the Italian fishing indus try virtually brought to an end
 The Scandinavian countries and Holland are the chief sufferers from the searching of neutral shipping. for these ships now are being stopped by | both British and German warships.
 No Danger From Turkey
 Danger from the Turkish fleet has | passed for the time being, these war ships having returned from the Black 1 sea to the sea of Marmora.

Mr.: William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF

subject of building, for the readers OF this
paper On account OF his wide experience
as Editor, Author and MANUFACTURER, he

The study Of stairways and the
proper placing of them in dwelling
houses is responsible for more suicides
among architects than any other fea-
ture of the business.
Ever since two story houses were
first built stairs have occupied promi-
nent positions, usually in front in full
view of the street door where floor
space is more valuable than in any
other part of the house. The front
stair not only takes up valuable space
on both floors but it often spoils the
living room or parlor down stairs and
curtails two of the best bedrooms up
stairs.
Now, the stairway in this plan
solves the problem in a new way. It
not only fills a new felt want, but it
fills the neighbors with envy and the
contractor with malice, because the
workmanship must be so exact to
please the owner that he can never
get out of it with a profit.
However, this stairway seems to
overcome many difficulties. 1t occu-
pies the least valuable corner in the
house, which is right because nobody
stays in the stairway any longer than
he can help. You sit in a dining room
long enough to enjoy a good meal, you
lounge in the living room until neces-
sity drives you to work or sleepiness
drives you to bed, and you stay in a
nice front bedroom all night and part
of the morning If the boss don't OBJ
