LIVERPOOL, May 2S.-Under di-
rect orders from Washington, the
naval attache Of the American en-
bassy at London today began rigid
inquiry into the reported torpedoing
Of the American steamer Nebraskan,
by a German submarine E.
Captain J. s. Green and officers OF
the Nebraskan, were quizzed at Sc
cret session, while preparations were
being made to put the steamer In
dry dock for a careful examination
of her hull. What statement her
master made to the American attachs
is not known but to newspapermen,
Captain Green frankly admitted he
could not swear positively whether
the NebrasKan was torpedoed or that
she hit a mine.
The best l can say is that some
thing struck us about S25 Tuesday
night, while we we're about forty
miles west Of South Cliff" said Cap
tain Green. 1T Is my belief. however,
that we were hit by a torpedo. The
chief engineer said he thought he saw
something resembling the wake of a
torpedo on the starboard side just
before the explosion. He is not GER
tain about it.
THE weather was clear and it was
quite light We had the name Of the
vessel and her port painted in big
letters on both sides amidships. II
su marine attacked us, she knew
what she was going about. She must
have known that she was shooting
torpedo against an American ship.
Il was in the cabin when the shock
came, the third officer being On the
bridge. First there was violent
shock: then after a brief interval,
terrific explosion. The boatswaIn,
who was asleep in one of the fore
castle cabins, was injured about the
head and legs, and two quartermast-
ers were slightly injured.
"A great hole, at least twenty feet
square, was torn in the starboard bow
below the water line. The foreCastle
cabin was wrecked and several heavy
steel girders flung overheard. What
ever struck us. certainly caused ter
rife explosion.
THE ship began to fill so rapidly
that I thought she was going to SINK
at once She had settled about twelve
feet at the head when I ordered the
crew to the boats, after sending ont
wireless calls for assistance.
I'VE crUised about for an hour, but
saw no submarine. When We saw
that the Nebraskan apparently was in
no danger of sinking, We returned and
got her under steam again Early the
next morning two boats sent out by
the British admiralty joined US and
we got under way. We first thought

What the War Moves Mean
BY j. w. T. Mason, Former European Man
aqer of the United Press.

Churchill handed in his resignation
and then remained at his post until
his successor was chosen. He accept
ed without demur the position of chan
cellor of the duchy of Lancaster which
is the least important position in the
cabinet and concerns itself with the
administration of certain Lancaster
properties of the king.
The willingness of Churchill to ac'
cept Loyalty whatever position the
government desired him to occupy,
will react in his favor. Churchill left
the admiralty discredited and under
fire not only of public opinion, but also
of many members of parliament or
his own party. He has probably saved
his political future by accepting the
nub,ic humiliation of reduction in
rank Loyalty and without suggestion
of running away.
Under the new regime at the admir-
alty there will be no scandal of con-
slant disputing such as occurred oe-
tween Churchill and Lord Fisher. But,
otherwise, it is difficult to see what
Ralfour and Admiral Jackson can do
which has not been done before. Any
wav the two prime accomplishments of
tbe british navy will continue. Ger
man commerce will fs kept off the
saas and British troops and supplies
will be ferried to France, secure
against submarine attacks

for at the close Of the second Balkan

to the German government paid high
tribute to General Putnik as the great

Like the French generalissimo, Put

when it comes to military information
given out by the Serbian government.
They are altogether too verbose for
the commander in chief. At the last
great battle with the Austrians in De-
cember when Putnik drove the enemy
out Of Serbia and forced them to Leave
behind 0,0G0 dead and 10000 prisoners.
he forcibIy expressed his disapproval of
