BRITISH DIsMAYED
OVER SINKING Of
THREE VESSELS
German Submarines Resume
Attacks With RedoubIed VIC
or and Show Isles Are En-
CirCIed by Hostile Craft.

LONDON. March 10.-After a brie
lul the activities of German sub
marines against British merchant
doubled vigor. Three British ships
have been sunk I'm the last SO hours
and another was chased, but man
aged to escape owing to superior
speed and seamanship. The sinking
of the three vessels at widely distant
points shows that the British isles
are practically encircled by hostile
underwater boats.
The Tangistan. whose destruction
cost the lives of 81 men. was sunk
off Scarborough in the North sea
the Blackwood was attacked and sunk
in the English channel off Hastings
the Princess Victoria was torpedoed
and destroyed off Liverpool i'm the
Irish sea. The Clan line steamer.
Clan Macrae, was chased through
the irish sea off the mouth of the
Mersey river but avoided destruction
by tacking on a 2ig-zag course and
putting on full steam.
Many submarines have been re-
ported in the last two days at various
points In British waters. naval eX-
perts have come to the conclusion
the Germans have agreed TO make
good their recent losses. This seems
20 confirm reports that II submar-
ines were recently sent TO the new
German naval base at Zeebrugge.
Belgium.
Rejoicing Turned To Dismay.
British rejoicing over the success
of the international war fleet in the
Dardanelles was turned to dismay by
the Office announcement of the ad-
miralty that three English merchant
ships had been lost At the same
time there were SO many other re-
ports of submarines being sighted
that the people in shipping circles
prepared themselves for further bad
news during the next few days.
One result Of the submarine sue
cesses was to arouse shipping to
greater caution and to intensity the
hatred of German war methods
Members of the crew Of the Black
wood which was bound from BHth
to Harve with a cargo of coal when
she was sunk. declared that the vessel
was attacked without warning
There was a sudden explosion while
the ship was passing through a thick
snow storm and the men barely had
time to take to the boats. Just be-
fore the BlackwOod disappeared
another submarine was seen in the
vicinity Many members of the crew
of the Tangistan were Arabs This
snip sank within four minutes after
being struck.
Saw Torpedo Coming.
Capt Cubbin of the Princess Vic
toria, said that he saw the torpedo
making straight for his ship but he
had no time to maneuver the vessel
before she was struck. The vessel
rolled over on her side and sank
just after the officers and crew had
taken TO the boats
Newspapers printed bitter attacks
against the Germans for the sinking
of these latest ships. The radical
section of the press sturdily advocated
treating captured German seamen as
pirates.

For the week ending August 2, 1915.
Des Moines, Iowa,
Another week of COOL cloudy and
wet weather has again prevented
much progress being made with hay
ing, harvesting and threshing. The
average temperature was about de-
grees below the normal, but there
was great excess of rainfall and
cloudiness. In some localities the
showers we're accompanied by hi gh
winds, which, together with the
heavy rain, lodged more timothy and
grain, blew apples from the trees and
in a few instances flattened corn. AS
a whole the week was very unfaVor-
able, except for corn, which made
fairly good progress, but the crop is
still backward and the general con-
dition is much below the normal. On
AUGUST list the average condition
was II per cent or % per cent less
than on August 1st last year. Ihere
slill remains much uncut grain, some
CT which has been. ripe two to three
weeks, and the continued wet wealth
er has further damaged grain IN the
shock and kept fields too soft to per-
nit binders to work. a large acreage
of wheat and oats will be abandoned
and much hay has been spoiled.
Fruit and truck crops continue in
good condition, although there are
some complaints OF potatoes rottlng.
On August LIST the average condl-
ton of pastures was 1OS per cent;
Dolatoes 1902; flax, "a. Last year on
August st the condition of pastures
was "a per cent; potatoes, 80 and
