REPORTED As ARRIVING
At ALEXANDRIA MONDAY

LONDON, December S.--A Telegram
from Alexandria, Egypt, received to-
day by i.loyd's. says that the American
steamship Comnunipaw. reported sunk
of the coast of Tripoli by a submarine,
arrived at Alexandria on Monday
II is inferred that possibly some con
fusion has arisen in regard To the
identity of the vessel torpedoed If the
report OF the torpedoing of the Com
munipaw is suhstantiatcd. she must
have discharged her cargo OF oil and
have been on the way 10 another port
when attacked.
1t is recalled that the point at which
the Communipaw is said to have been
sunk corresponds closely TO the posi-
tion OF the American tank ship pctro-
lite when il was attacked by Il sub
marine on sunday
The announcement from Rome OF the
torpcdoinS of the Communipaw said
she had been sunk near Tobruk, Tri-
poll. Th" position of the Fctrolitc was
given as off the southeast coast of the
Island OF Crete. The island lies di-
rcctly north of rripoli. about 30 miles
from the African coast.

The Berlin Foreign Office, however.
desired full information OH the subject
before laying it before the Emperor,

WILL III: CONSIDERED
SOLELY AS REQUEST OF L. s.
Any application for safe conducts for
Captain Boy Ed and Captain Won Papcn
will be considered by the allied gov
crnments solely as request OF the
United States.
The first impulse among representa-
tives of the allies was to fatly refuse
to enter into any undertaking to re-
frain from treating tie two German Of
hcers, once they are deprived Of their
diplomatic immunity, as entitled to any
treatment different from that which
would be metcd out to any enemy SOL
dicr or sailor.
Further consideration, however has
led to 4 change of view If the United
States should take TIE ground that 1t
is responsible for the safe return OF
the two officers to Germany, the allied
governments would be disposed to re-
frain from Intervention. though ii is
probable that they would insist that
the men gave their parol not To serve

The retirement of the allies TO

they intended to abandon the Balkan
enterprise entirely, but the continued
landing OF troops at Saloniki would
seem to deny any such intention. while
there is very strong military opinion
here that Salonilii should be held as q
base for future operations in the Near
East
There is little news from the other
