NO HOPE OF
SAVING men
ON SUBMARINE
Lost U. S. Warship is Located at
Depth of 800 Feet Off
Honolulu.
NO ANSWER TO THE SIGNALS.
Derrick and Crane to Raise the
Stricken Ship Are Being
Hurried to Scene.
NO ANSWER TO THE SIGNALS.

Honolulu, r. H., March 27.-The
American submarine F-4, lost since
Thursday morning off Honolulu har-
Dor. was located yesterday afternoon
Heroic efforts were being made last
night to raise the stricken craft, but
after having been submerged fol-
more than thirty hours it was re-
garded as highly doubtful whether
any of her crew of twenty-one men
remained alive.
To lift the little vessel to the sur
face, it was found necessary to send
to the Pearl harbor naval station for
a derrick and crane. This involved
much loss of time and it was thought
probable that the fate of the crew
might not be determined until day
light.
Rescue vessels dragging the ocean
bed with graphing hooks CHANGED
upon the stricken craft at a depth OF
800 feet. Making fast to the F-4
the naval tug Navajo and the steam
er Makaala began to tow their find
they were not certain that 1t was
the submarine they had hooked-to-
ward shallow water.
Quantities of oil came to the sur
face, proof that it really was the
lost vessel. Soon afterwards, sub
marine marked buoy described far
below the water, removed all doubt
that the F-4 had been found.
Just when the marker buoy had
been released by the disabled boat,
there was no means of determining.
If the signal was given after the
graphing hooks of the rescue YES
sells took hold, then the crew, or at
least some of them, were still alive.
For more than an hour the tug
and the steamer stru ggled with their
unwieldy burden. Soon afterward it
became apparent that it would be
impossible to tow the submarine near
enough to shore to bring her to the
surface, and hurry call was sent to
the naval station for wrecking
ship.
Naval authorities admitted last
night they had given up hope for
the F-4's crew.
However, resuscitating apparatus
has been dispatched to the scene and
every effort will be made to develop
any spark of life which may remain.
The general opinion is that the YES
sells plates were sprung through the
immense pressure Of the water at a
depth of fifty fathoms, and that the
two officers and nineteen enlisted
men aboard have persisted.
Vessels in the vicinity which are
equipped with submarine signal APP
paratus continued to send out sig
nails, but no answer came.

Kurds Shoot All Men in Gulpashan
and Hang Refugees Taken
From Missions.
SIX FOR U. S. PROTECTION.
Cable From Native Christians Tells
of Reign of Terror at
80, Crumiah.

New York, March 27.-All the
men at Gulpashan, a large village
near Urumiah, Persia, have been shot
by Kurds, the women violated, an
American missionary beaten, and
sixty-five refugees taken from the
French and American missions, have
been hanged on gibbets erected in
the mission yards, according to a
|cablegram received here yesterday By
the Presbyterian board Of foreign
missions.
The cable came from four native
Christ ans in Titiis, three of whom
were naturalized Americans. The
message follows:
"Gulpashan destroyed. Its men
shot, women violated. Sixty men
taken from French mission COM
pound hanged. Allen beaten. Hang
ing pole erected in French mission
yard. Massacre imminent. Implore
state department that consul at Ia
briz protect Urumiah."
The message was signed by Jesse
Yonan, E. o. Eshoo, Isaac Yohannan
and Paul Shimman, all of whom are
known to the board. EshOo and
Shimman, both Americans, left this
city for Urumiah five weeks ago, pro-
cceding by way of Norway and Pc
trograd. ~
The missionary Allen, referred to
as having been beaten, is E. T. AL
len, who was born in London, Ont,
and became a naturalized American.
Allen has been in the service of the
board since 1891. He was sent, for
the second time, to Persia in 1911.
/ Six thousand dollars for relief at
Urumiah was cabled yesterday to the
American consul at Tabriz by the
Persian war relief committee.
Officials of the board were sur
prised yesterday to learn that Sec
rotary Bryan had requested Ameri'
can Consul Glazebrock at Jerusalem
to investigate conditions at Urumiah
and vicinity. 1t was as hard to get
men from Jerusalem to Urumiah, &C
cording to advices received by the
board, it was said, as from New
York RI IIrumiah .-.
"We have requested Secretary
Bryan, both by letter and telegram
to do all possible to help the situa'
tion in Persia" representative Of
the board said, "and trust that he
will be able to do so through Other

salem, who we understand would
meet great delays and difficulties in
going or getting agents to go to Uru

Just come about a general awakening
to the importance of the collar, if the
number of new designs brought out
measures the demand for novel neck
wear. Those who provide it deserve
all sorts of credit, for the neck may
be becomingly dressed now whether
1t be thin or fat, long or short There
are all kinds of collars for all kinds
of necks.
For the thin woman the turnover
collars and those with plaits at the
back are an inspiration. For her, col
lars are made closed and high at the
front, or with only a narrow opening
and deep turnover cape at the back.
They are wonderfully becoming.
A pretty collar of embroidered
batiste is shown at the left of the pic
ture, with the turned-over cape at the
back also pictured This is one ex-
ample of a very popular type, and
there are great numbers of similar
styles in lace, net and embroidered
materials.
AT the right, a collar with long
pointed wings at the sides is shown
1t is made of batiste and net COM
bined with a dainty pattern embroid-
cred on both. 1t is high in the back.
All these collars of sheer fabrics-n-
icluding laces-are wired to hold them
in position.
Besides being very becoming and
providing pretty finishing touch to
the dress, these collars save the blouse
or waist from becoming soiled and dis
colored. They are inexpensive and
easily done up, and they must be reck-
oned with as The most important dress

lars and more will have been poured

the country when all the 1914 wheat
crop is sold. This was the esti-
mate given to the United Press today

raisers are getting today for their
wheat will total nearly twice as much
as the 100000. 10000 and more which
they received for their wheat in 1913.

nine cents was the price on December

763. $4,000 bushels of wheat raised in
1913. Because of the sensational and
record d-breaking advances of wheat
prices since the outbreak of the war
and since January 1. 1915. especially
the average for 1914, now explained
cannot be judged by the December

bushel on the farms.
