ADMITS NEBRASKAN
HIT BY A TORPEDO

vinced that the damage to the Nebraskan
was oausel by an attack by a submarine.
ION the evening Of May Is last tho
submarine met a steamer bound westward
without a flag and with no neutral mark
ings on la freeboard about thlrty-flve
nautical miles west OF Fastnet Rock; no
appliance OF any kind for the illumina-
ton Of the flag or markings was to be
seen. In the twilight, which had already
set in, the name OF the steamer was not
visible from the submarine. Since the
commander OF the submarine was Obliged
TO assume from his wide experience In
the area OF maritime war that only Eng
lish steamers and no neutral steamers
traversed this war area without flag and
markings he attacked the vessel with
torpedo, in the conviction that he had an
enemy vessel before him. t,

mander saw that the vessel had in the
meantime hoisted the American flag. As
a consequence, he OF course refrained
from any further attack. Since the ves-
sci remained afloat no had no occasion
to concern himself further with the boats
which had been launched.
1T results from this without a doubt
that attack on the steamer Nebraskan
was not meant for the American flag,
nor h II traceable to any fault on the part
OF the commander of the German sub
marine. but Is to be considered an un-
fortunate accident the German govern
