THE SINKING OF
FORMlDABLEBY
7 TORPEDOES

London, Jan. I, $50 p M.-The Mar
quis of Crew announced in the House
of Lords today that it was the definite
opinion of the British admiralty that
the battleship Formidable had been
sunk by two torpedoes discharged by
a submarine.
Tho Earl Selborn, former first lord
of the admiralty, in an address in the
House of Lords, described the dispatch
of Sir Christopher c. Cradock's squad
ron to the Pacific as blunder, as the
squadron, he said, was wholly incom
petent for the task assigned to it, to
destroy the German warships there
He then asked for more infor1na ton
concerning the loss Of the battleshfps
Formidable and Bulwark and data
about other naval operations.
The Marquis Of Crew said he could
not add anything to what Winston
Spencer Churchill, first lord Of the adj
miralty, had said in the House Of
Commons. Before adjournment how
ever. the Marquis said that in the
opinion Of the admiralty, the Formid-
able had been struck by two torpedoes
fred by a submarine. He added that
tHe Captain VI tuc r VI uIludUlc IldO SSilt
signals to the other ships not to stand
by, which was taken to mean that
submarines were in the vicinity and
that they might suffer the same fate
as his ship.
There were now only two German
cruisers and two armed merchant
men to carry on commerce raiding,
the Marquis Of Crewe said, and they
could not long escape the allies ships.
The manning Of new ships. including
monitors. he added. had been COM
pletely provided for. !

off the debt of about $4,000 on the

escorted you to the very first pew at
High Mass? Were you uneasy for
fear that you were not doing as the

breaches, the faithful should remain
standing till the bishop invites them
to sit down.
10. All stand at the beginning Of
the Credo, kneel at the Eft Incarnatus
est and sit while the priest sits.
IA. When the choir sings eft In
