AMERICAN STEAMER IS

London, Feb. %. Another
American steamer, the Carib,
has been destroyed by a mine off
the German coast in the North
Sea, while a third Norwegian.
Regin, has been torpedoed or de.
stroyed by a mine off Dover. All
the Reign's crew were saved by
British destroyers. Although it
is not stated in dispatches from
Berlin, it is believed the Carib's
crew also escaped. Thus neutral
states continue to be the great

marine warfare. It's considered
possible, however, that one or
two British steamers suffered a
similar fate, one being overdue,
and another being reported blown
up off Ryo,

the rapidity of circulation to
answer the questions, How
many times does one dollar

On the bills are attached papers
containing places for ten names
