WERE UNARMED SHIPS

London, August 23.-The British
admiralty today made the following
supplementary announcement with re-
gard to the sinking of the Arabic:
THE Arabic was an unarmed pas
senger ship outward bound to neu-
trail port. 1t was thus impossible
for her to have been carrying CONTRA
band to this country.
She was sunk by a German sub
marine without warning, and neither
attempted to attack the submarine
nor to escape from It."
The admiralty also denied the re-
port that the steamship Dunsley,
which was sunk shortly before the
torpedoing OF the Arabic, presumably
by the same submarine, was an armed
patrol. The Dunsley was peaceful
and unarmed trader" the admiralty
declared.
