Causes Excitement.
The press bureaus announcement
was made at 2 o'clock and caused
much excitement. The immediate con-
clusion reached was that German sub
marines had become active in retalia-
ton for the Christmas raid Of the
British against Cuxhavsn.
The Formidable has been attached
to the home fleet and has been used
both for patrol duty and to guard
transports plying between English
and French ports.
The last heavy naval loss sustained
by the British was the destruction Of
the battleship Bulwark which was
blown up by a mysterious explo.sSn
off Sheerness on November Is.
The survivors of the Formidable
were picked up by . light British cr,Ii-
ser which was in tho harbor when the
disaster occurred.
Making the announcement it was
pointed out by the secretary Of the
Admiralty that II was impossible to
estimate the exact number Of victims
because other survivors may have
been picked up by other ships which
were near by when the Formidable
went down.

Broke Hand In
World Series;
Just Learns It

NEW YORK, Feb. 2. Bob
Shawkey just learned recently
that he broke his hand in the
worlds series last October. The
hand had been troubling him for
some time and not long ago he
had a doctor examine it. The ex-
animation showed that the two
small bones to his right flipper
were badly cracked. Shawkey
lays the blame onto Rabbit Mar
awhile. He remembers, he said,
after stopping a sissler off the
Rabbits bat, that his hand pain
ed him. The M. d. fixed 1t up and
promised Bob he would be as
good as ever next season.
