LONDON, Aug. 2G.--German subma-
rines, in the last twenty-four hours
have claimed greater toll than on
any other day since the war began
Nine steamers, including the big
White Star liner Arabic have been
sent to the bottom with loss OF
thirty-four and possibly more non
comhatant lives. The Leyland liner
Nicosian is limping into port, dam
aged by submarine attack. An un
confirmed report reached London this
afternoon that the 6,583 ton White
Star steamer Bowie has been sunk bS
German torpedoes.
For what Germany terms her "glor
ious u. boat success" Grand Admiral
Won Tirpitz, exponent OF submarine
war on merchant men, has been dec.
Grated by the kaiser, according to Am
sterdam dispatches today.
Holland cites report that the new
activity Of the submarines coupled
with the announcement that Rus.
sian army of $1,000 has surrendered
to the Germans at Novo Georgiewsit
has thrown the populace OF Berlin
into a frenzy Of excitement.
Two of the vessels torpedoed in
the last twenty-four hours were neu-
trail ships. the Norwegian Magda and
the Spanish Pena Castillo, whose
sinking is believed to have resulted
in loss of life. The British ships
known to have been sunk include the
Arabic, City of New York, Baron Ers-
tine. Restormel. Dunsley. Grodno and
Serbino.
The Dunsley's thirty-five survivors,
who witnessed the torpedoing of the
Arabic from their boats, were landed
today, having been picked up by a
salvage steamer. Two of the Duns-
ley's crew lost their lives.

yiyor of the Arabic disaster who was
interviewed here today saw the Ger
man submarine that sent the big lin
er to the bottom, though several said
they saw the u boat that few min
utes before torpedoed the British
steamer Dunsley and believed 1t was
the same submarine.
They agree that the Arabic was
sent to the bottom without warning.
From the moment the heavy blow
struck by the torpedo rocked the
steamer with violent explosion un-
til she sank beneath the waves. there
was little confusion among either
messengers or crew. Men who had
passed through other disasters said
today that nothing impressed them
so much as the calm, orderly manner
in which the passengers got over tho
sides within eleven minutes arter
the vessel was struck.
The drowned were in two boats
which capsized almost Immediately
after they struck the water. One OF
them was caught by the liner as she
rolled over in her death plunge.
Some of the occupants struggled 10

The fact that two Americans-Mrs

preaching the steamer we later
found out was the Dunsley OF Lon

caught the faint sound of an explo-

Dunsley had been torpedoed.
Our course was taking us over in
the direction of the Dunsley. We pre-
pared for an attack at once. The
crew ran about distributing life pre-
