STILL MYSTERY
Sinking OF British Steamer Harpa

Unexplained.

The sinking Of the British steamer
Harpalyce in the North sea remains
somewhat OF a mystery. The Har-
palyce which carried gifts from the
american people to the Belgian suf-
ferers. recently arrived at Rotterdam
and discharged her cargo. II is und-
erstood that she was on her way to
Newcastle when she either was tor
peoded or sunk by mine. More than
half or her crew OF fifty three were
rescued. but only meagre details of
the disaster have so far been made
public. II is not known whether the
vessel still carried her permit OF ex-
empton from attack. under the char.
ter OF the commission for the relief
OF Belgium.
