U-BOAT GIVES UP DEAD
corpses Found Among Debris In Hull
Raised at Honolulu.


A number of bodies of the twenty
two men who went down in the sub
marine F-4 on March 25 at Honolulu
were found entangled in the wreckage
OF the interior.
One body was removed. Two others
were ii such a poor state of preserva'
ton that the work Of uncovering
them is being done slowly. None has
been identified.
The finding of the bodies was an.
nounced officially by Rear Admiral G.
J. Boush. A hole was ordered cut in
the forward compartment of the SUBJ
marine, which so far has been mac
eessible.
In addition to gaping holes in the
stern Of the submarine, a big hole has
been torn in the forward part. The in
Testigating board has not definitely
ascertained whether the holes caused
The loss Of the vessel or whether they
were torn during lifting operations.

The German admiralty advanced the
suegestion that the submarine which

been sunk by the British.
nigh official of the admiralty, in
syain declaring that absolutely no
news on the sinking of the Arabic was

"Would it not be lamentable if the

we should never learn what happen.

The official would not say whether
one or more of the submarines in
question were still out, nor how long
any one vessel had been away from
its base, but stated suggestively:
"They seldom remain out longer
than three weeks, and we usually get
a report on any torpedoing operations

later than a fortnight after the occur.

derstood that these concessions will
apply principally to steamships on
which Americans are passengers and
that the lives of Americans in the fu.

marine attacks.
Whatever the diplomatic form OF
presentation may have been, Germany
did, without reservation, assume all
responsibility for the loss of Ameri-
can lives aboard the Lusitania. Her
offer of reparation was so unqualified
that only a method of determining
the amount of damage remains to be
ascertained She requests the United
States to suggest some means of as
such damages.
She does not disavow the destruc'

impossible for the reason that she has
already officially honored the com.

that the giant Cunarder loaded with

Cost of Physical Valuation of Rail
roads.


j. Herbert Snow, an old Edgerton
boy, who has been engaged in railroad
engineering in the west for the past
twenty-five years, writes us from ANA
rillo, Texas, that he is back with the
Santa Fe railroad again and with the
engineering department, which he says
is busy hive of industry helping the
Interstate commission arrive at a
physical valuation of railway property.
Some idea of the cost of the burden
thrown upon the railroads may be
CLEANED when we are told what it is re-
quired Of them to do:
1.-The government requires estimates
gotten up and totaled for each mile,
cost of right of way, with copy of every
deed, cost of construction, showing en-
bankment, excavation, bridging, build
ings, everything in fact, made out per
mile, even to the weight of steel, num-
Der of ties, when they were placed and
how many per mile must be replaced to
certain future date, all excavations
must be classified into earths solid and
loose rock, profile of all of the line
must be furnished and maps of every
foot of it showing the land owned, from
whom it was purchased, etc., when it
was bought and the price paid, these
facts must be verified by records; the
cost of all ballasting must be shown
and in fact all betterments, when. the
work was done and records to corrob-
crate the statements. On all abandon
ed property the cost to date must be
itemized and also the reason Tor aban-
donment, then an estimate must be
made showing what it would cost to re-
produce the abandonment at the pres
ent time, the commission go over the
line and recross-section enough of it to
verify the records the company fur
nishes them, the company furnishes
three men to accompany each crew of
government men (there great many
of them), these men are called pilots,
their duty being to explain the notes
and records and to see that nothing is
overlooked. The original notes of con-
struction must be in evidence together
with a copy showing totals between
mile posts. Some have estimated that
it will cost the Santa Fe about thirteen
million dollars. There are forty-four
men here at Amarillo in the office
working on reports, which is only a
sprinkling Of those on the system. My
part of it is to look up hidden values,
abandoned property of all kinds, and |
can see large chunks of trouble ahead.
There is so much of it where not a
trace remains today, and it must be
found, original notes dug up and the
estimate made, SO many changes have
been made and so much track aban-
doned that it will be quite task,
where temporary tracks have been laid
during the construction, records must
be found, reasons for building the track
given, costs, dates and the cost of re-
producing it at the present date. All
of these items must be vouched for by
original notes. Of course they are
somewhere, either in Chicago, Los An
geles, Topeka, Galveston or Amarillo,
but some of them are aged, and pre-
sumo some are lost. In any event it
will require time and patience to locate
some of them -
