Five Hundred Men Lost When
TOrpedOes Strike Old
BattIeship
2O1 SAVED FROM CREW OF
$50 ON BOARD VESSEL
One of the Boats That Have Been
Bombardine German Positions
In Belgium Finally De-
stroyed by Enemy.

London--Following the official an
nouncement Friday that the British
battleship Formidable had been sunk
by German mine or torpedo came a
report Friday of the rescue of 20 mem
bers of her crew who were supposed
to have persisted when the ship went
down.
The first report given out by the
official information bureau said that
II OF the $50 men on the Formidable
had been picked up by a British
cruiser.
Late Friday night it was announced
that the cruiser had picked up so men
and that 20 others had been saved
by the Tor bay trawler Providence.
Another cutter from the Formidable,
has reached Lyme-Regis, Dorsetshire,
with 90 men. bringing the total saved
up to POI men. When the cutter left
the Formidable she had 90 or more
men abroad, but all but so succumbed
to exposure, having been in an open
boat for some 20 hours in violent
storm.
The fact that the disaster occurred
in the English channel recalls that
British ships have been engaged in
bombarding the German positions on
the Belgian coast and that German
submarines on several occasions have
/ attempted to torpedo them.
Survivors say that the boat was
struck by two torpedoes, one fore and
ore aft The Formidable was sixteen
years old but still considered an eff
cieIt fighting craft.

been unable to put my finger
upon one single act so far which
will enable the farmer to prose-
cute his calling upon the same
financial basis as that provided
for in the general commercial
interest. Every bill that has
been before congress for the bet.
terment of the agricultural ma.

tracked for the purpose of fur
thering such legislation as is

serve banks recently created by
the government, | have been
unable to detect wherein they
are any benefit to the farmer.
Has the rate IF interest we have
been paying been reduced? Can
we borrow money any better
than heretofore? Has land and
personal property been recog-
nized as security of equal value
with stocks, bonds, commercial
and manufacturing interests?
Are bonds and stocks any better
security than land? No. 1t was
not the intention of the govern
ment that the reserve banks
should be of material benefit to
the farmer. Why? Because the
government made no attempt to
place land titles upon such a ba-
SIS as will protect loans for farm

OFFICER TELLS OF CONVOY
FOR WHITE STAR LINER
Was Saved From Submarine by Eng
lands Newest and Speed
lest Cruiser.

NEW YORK. September 1S.-How the
White Star liner Baltic was conveyed
into Liverpool on her last eastern trip
by England's newest and speediest
cruiser was told by one of the Baltic's
officers on that ships arrival here.
I'VE were between Holyhead and the
mouth of the Mersey August 30,' he
said. when we noticed a cruiser over
hauling us on the starboard quarter
and coming like an express train. She
passed us about two miles off. and We
learned afterwarl that she was the
Llewellyn, the fastest craft now af1oat,
excepting only the racing motor boats.
She is a four-stacker, burns oil and
can make forty-eight knots an hour.
-Four miles ahead of US we sighted
a periscope, and when the Llewellyn
got within two miles of il she opened
fire. The first shot got the range and
the second shot got the submarine. 1t
and did not come up again.
There is no doubt that it was a Ger
man submarine and that it was lying
in wait for the Baltic.
''The British are SO enraged at the
activities of the enemy's submarines
that they are seeking them out and
sinking them without mercy The
cruisers work in conjunction with the
aviators. two aeroplanes to a ship.
IF the cruiser sinks the submarine
no attempt is made to rescue the crew
and no quarter is granted in any case.
| know of seven German submarines
that were trapped in steel nets and in
each case they were not hoisted to the
surface until it was certain that no one
on board could be alive.
