l Austrian flag. News of this attack came in a cablegram to the navy de- partment from the commander of the United States cruiser Des Moines at Canea, Island of Crete. It said that
 one man on the steamer was slightly injured.
 It was impossible early today to as-
 certain whether the wreckage discov-
 that of the Commun1paw or of still
 another American vessel.
 Purchased After War Began.
 Both the Communipaw and the Pet rolite were purchased by the Stan dard Oil Co.,, from the German-Ameri- can Petroleum Co.,, of Germany after the beginning of the war, together with about twenty other oil steamers. They were transferred to American registry.
 The Communipaw, formerly the Deutschland, was a three-masted steel steamer. She left New York October 27, for Alexandria, Egypt, but was detained at Genoa by the Italian authorities until Dec. 2.
 The Petrolite left New York. Nov {, TOT Alexandria with a cargo of oil According to MT. Warden, she had dlscharged her cargo and was on the return voyage when attacked No report is expected from her captain until he touches at a port whence he can comm unlcate by cable
 Officials in Suspense.
 Washington, Dec. s.-Conflictinp despatches from Rome and London as to the American tank steamer Com mun1paw, one reporting her sunk off Tobruk, Tripoli. the other announcing her arrival at Alexandria, Egypt. left officials here in suspense.
 Official advices from Ambassador Page at Rome, reporting that an american ship ''held to have been the standard Oil tanker Comunipaw,' mad been torpedoed and sunk, were received during the forenoon by the state department. Ambassador Pages source of information was not di- 'ulged In his message, but it was nought likely that he had received ne same report as that transmitted n press despatches last night from tome and that the message from him oday might simply have been de- ayed in transit.
 No Confirmation in London.
 No confirmation of the news de- l patch from London sent after last lights press cablegram from Rome. | eporting the Communipaw's safe ar ival at Alexandria, had been re- eived by the department.
 More details as to the Communipaw g we'll as the Stan13 rd Oil tanker 'retolite, reported attacked by a in. the Mediterranean last unday morning, are awaited.
