BRITISH MARINE RATES SOAR.
Presence of German Submarines 81
Irish Sea Cause Rise.

London. Feb. 22.-The London Daily
Te!egraph's marine insurance correspon-
dent writes that the second invasion of
the Irish sea by submarines and the
sinking Of the steamships Cambank and
Downshire have considerably stiffened
the backs of the underwriters and have
caused them to demand higher rates for
carsoes going from or coming to any
port on the English coast
This applies to cargoes in neutral as
well as British bottoms. The sinking of
the Cambank means the loss of $3.50. coo
for the cargo to the insurance market.
The loss OF the hull falls on the state
war risk office.
The small steamer Downshire whose
twelve months marine policy only began
a few days ago, touches the market to
the extent Of only $4,000.
