marine, but was compelled to stop.
According to the ministry of marine.
the submarine after sinking the
French steamer, attacked a Norwe.
gian ship. French torpedo boats came
up from Cherbolrg while the subma.
rine was pursuing the neutral vessel,
and compelled her to dive beneath the
surface. This is the first time that an
attack by a German submarine upon q
neutral vessel has been reported.

the the boats, the submarine which
had ~torpedoed the ship was seer
speeding away. The Dulwich sank in
twenty minutes.
Twenty-Five members OF the crew
of thirty-one men were picked up by
the French destroyer Arquebuse and
brought to Havre. Seven others rowed
to Fecamp. The fate of the other two
is unknown.
