BRITISH VESSEL

London, Nov. 26.--There was fresh
outhurst Of Indignation here today az
news Of the sinking by German sub.
marine Of the British steamship Mela.
chite, off Cape LaHeve, not much more
than three miles from the French port
Of Huvrc.
With the enormous navy the British
have been building up at tremendous
expense for years, it was widely de-
clnred, it ought not to be possible for
German war craft to operate as they
do almost within sight Of the English
coast. The admiralty came in for
fresh severe criticism.
The Melachite was a Cunarder Of
about 1000 tons and was bound from
Liverpool to Hovrc. The submarine
did not attack it from under water,
but stopped it from the surface Of the
ocean and gave the crew ten minGtcs
TO get off in the small boats before
torpedoing it.
AS an offset against the Melnchitc 5
loss, some satisfaction was expressed
at the behtcd admission Of the sink.

San Francisco, Nov. 26.-No end of
interest was expressed in church cir

published report by committee of
San Francisco Advertising association
members on the reasons why congrcga.
tions are not larger at Baptist, Metho-
dist, Presbyterian and Congregational
houses of worship.
The advertising men conducted then
investigation ard made their report at
the request of the Rev. Louis j. Saw
yer, chairman of the inter-denomina.
tional committee Of the San Francisco
Church Federation. The report was
not fluttering to the clergymen. The
church federation was much surprised
by it, but it nqucstionably was inter.
ested, for it asked the advertising men
at once to prove what they said
The investigation was conducted and
the report made by II. g. Barkley, w.
p. Russell, Frederic $ Nelson, Louis
A. Cotton and Arthur j. Drummer, all
well-known advertising men. Their To-.
quiry was based on showings Of at
