Two Submarines Made
Attack on Big Liner
BY associated Press

Cape Bon, Tunis. Nov. 10, via Paris,
Nov. IL, 1920 a. M.-One of the An
cona's officers named Salvamini says
that towards noon he sighted two sub
marines which by reason of the
steamers siren, thick fog and the
reduced specs of the liner, were able
to approach unobserved.
The officer declares both submarines
flew the Austrian colors, but seven
other survivors affirm that the flag
was struck and replaced by the Ger
man colors as soon as the liner was
sighted
The nearest submarine was about
80 feet long and carried three inch
guns on her bow and stern. The
other submarine drew across the
Ancona's bow to prevent any attempt
at escape.

1.-THE commander of the Ancona
who reached here Thursday declares
the submarine gave his vessel no sig

presence of the submarine was shells
from a distance of five miles which
grazed the steamer. The Ancona
stopped dead"
Subsequently shells hit the boats
which were being made ready for
launching and many passengers were
killed or wounded on the deck and in
the boats. Some of the passengers
who had been thrown into the water
approached the submarine but were
repelled and derided. Finally shells
and torpedoes were fired at the An
coma from a distance of 800 yards"

TAFT FOR ROOT
FOR PRESIDENT
Former Executive Says He Is
One Man Who Answers Re-
quirements of Times
SeesiaI to The Telegraph

NrCtiu 10 I nc cscSfdfH
Chicago. ILL.,, Nov. IL. - William
Howard Taft is for Root for the Re-
publican nomination for President in
1916. The former President, in a sur
prisingly frank, candid and unre-
strained interview on the national po-
litioal situation, expressed his opinion
as a private citizen and out of poll
tics-that Root is the one man who
answers the requirements of the
times.
Mr. Taft does not deprecate the
present political strength of President
Wilson. but he afIirms his belief that
the Republicans have an excellent
chance to win the 1916 election if
conditions remain as they are" He
believes that next years ballots will be
cast with the European war in full
blast. He does not see peace within
eighteen months at the earliest.
The presidential campaign, in the
former Presidents judgment. will be
fought out mainly on the tariff issue.
The Wilson Mexican policy may he a
prime factor, but not if the United
States happens to have bet on the
right horse" Mr.. Taft suggested.

If German Newspaper
Was Sunday Journal

The question of whether the German
newspaper published in Pittsburgh

ed out in Dauphin county court to-
day when Joos. a big bluff German
American editor. began his action to
revoer from the State the bilsl for
printing the advertisement of the Al
leSheny county mercantile appraiser.
The action was permitted by Il recent
of assembly.
In addition TO the Sunday question:
the legal technicality being that publi-
cation in a Sunday newspaper was not
legal-the court heard argument on
the questions of whether the appraiser
cohld let the contract. and whether the
advertisement could include places of
business in the city of Pittsburgh only.
or in the county round about. Argu-
ment was resumed this afternoon.

of the occupants fell into the sea
and were drowned.
Passengers agree. the correspondent
says, that shots fired about the
steamer by the submarine apparently
to hasten the loading of the boats,
added to the panic.
Sights Enemy Submarine
The Reuter- dispatch which contains
the first connected story of the sink
ing of the Ancona Monday afternoon
twenty hours after she had left Mes
sina. Sicily. follows
AT exactly one O'Clock Monday aft
ernoon we sighted an enemy subma-
rine at great distance. She came to
the surface and made full speed i'm
our direction, firing as she did so, a
shot which went wide across our bow.
We took this to be a warning to halt.
Immediately there was the widest
panic aboard. not only among the
women and children but among the
men as well. Women screamed and
children clung desperately to their
mothers Meanwhile the submarine
continued to shell us. gaining rapidly.
The fifth shot carried away the chart
house.
THE engines then were stopped and
the Ancona came slowly to a stand
still. The submarine, which we could
now see plainly, was an Austrian,
came alongside. we heard the COM
mander talking to our captain. In
somewhat curt manner we were told
the Austrian had given us a few min
utes to abandon the ship. Meanwhile
the submarine withdrew a little dis
tance.
Shots Near Vessel
we turned to the boats which be-
gan to be lowered without loss of
time but the passengers were in
pandemonium. Men, women and chill
dren seemed to lose their heads COM
pletely. The submarine. presumably
to accelerate our departure continued
to fire around the vessel. There v-as
rush for the first boats lowered and
in the confusion these were over
turned DeIore they were free from
the davits, the occupants falling into
the water Many were drowned be-
fore our eyes.
THE shrieks of women, children
and struggling men rent the air but
it seemed no help could be given.
Everyone was trying to act for him
self. The heart-rending screams were
punctuated with shot after shot de-
livered almost mechanically from the
deck of the submarine, adding to the
panic aboard. Had it not been for
these shots it might have been pos
sible to restore a semblance of order
The conduct of the submarine was in
comprehensive. Not one shot was
directed at the ship but they were
fired all around the vessel as if to
create as much terror as possible"
