COMMANDER OF SHIP
SUNK BY GERMANS
REACHES PORTLAND

Portland. Me-, Nov. FIN comma nd
of Capt. r. Newton. the British steam
ship Aries arrived here this morning
after a decidedly rough voyage of II
days from London, strong, westerly
gales were encountered during prac-
tically the entire passage, and the ship
was about three days late in arriving
here. Like many other officers of Brit
ish ships coming to this port, Capt
Newton has had the experience of be-
ing on ship torpedoed by a German
submarine.
Before assuming command of the
Aries. Capt. Newton was the COM
handing officer of the British steam
er Welbury, which was torpedoed and
sunk oy. a German submarine several
weeks ago off the coast of Ireland. The
officers and crew Of the Welbury were
given a few minutes in which to leave
their vessel in life boats, as they were
completely at the mercy of the German
underwater craft, they quickly got
into the boat and pulled away to safe
ty. after which their ship was blown
UP. Later Capt. Newton and his crew
were picked up by one Of the patrol
boats and taken ashore.
The Aries will load about 100000
bushels Of grain at this port for Eng
land and her owners will receive
sum exceeding $4,000 for the ships trip
across the Atlantic to England.
While the Aries has never been pur-
sued by a German submarine. she
has been under fire during the present
European war, having been in West
Hartlepool, Eng, several months ago
when five German warships lombard
ed the town. officers Of the Aries
said today that several small shells
struck about the ship, but no serious
damage resulted
