The cable was signed by the
Standard Oil agent at Alexandria.
II stated merely that the steamer

she had been attacked by sub

Officials. OF the Standard Oil Co
admitted II was possible that the
vessel had left port the following
day and had then been attacked and

able.
Shipping circles believed either
that the Communlpaw was attacked,

that another ship Of similar name

WASHINGTON. Dec. S.-Another

peared today 20 face the United
States. Sinking In the Mediterra.
moan Of the American steamer Com.
munipaw. a Standard OH ship. with
possible loss OF American lives,
threatened new international com.
plications.
The state department today bent
its efforts to Ak the submarines ma
tionality. While officials believed
II TO be an Austrian boat, doubt
OH the point delayed decision on a
course OF action.
That the American nationality OF
the Communipaw was not known to
the attacking submarine was de-
clarcd inconceivable, II, like other
Standard oil steamers. she carried
the American flag painted on both
sides Of her hull. The former Ger
man registry OF the vessel was not
a warrant for the attack.
Operations by Austrian subma-
rines In the vicinity OF the Cummun-
ipaw's attack caused conviction that
first representations will ne made to
Austria. This wac strengthened by
the report from the United States
gunboat Des Moines of the unsuc.
cessful attack by an Austrian sub
marine upon the Standard OIL tank
err Petrollte.
The state and navy departments
today rushed orders TO representa-
tivos abroad for complete reports
regarding both incidents. Meager
Information indicated that the Pet
rolite attempted to escape. u the
Petrolite was duly warned and or
dered to submit to search, II Is
probable that no protest Will be
made.
Pending a report by American
Am AMBASSADOR Page at Rome, the In
clination Of the administration to-
day WAS to suspend judgment and
action Regarding the gommunipaw.
That delay would be encountered In
obtaining full information was ex-
pected.
Although the Communipaw, for
meriy the German steamer Deutsch-
land, was only transferred to Amer
lean registry last spring. officials de-
ciared TIE fullest protection OF the
government was due her. Claim for
damages was the least important OF
the questions presented.
