Guy Guant. a British naval attache

this summer that the Germans have
established base for submarines
somewhere along the New England

believe the U-5S has a hiding place

can escape when too hard pressed

not warn conveyed vessel. In the
event that suoh a vessel should be

controversy would be reopened.

Austrian Submarines
Deny Sinking of Persia;
Will Inquire of Turkey

Washington. d. g.. Feb. 1.-Secre-
tary Lansing to-day announced the re-
ceipt of a dispatch from Ambassador
Penfield. at Vienna. saying that he had
been informed by the foreign office
that all Austrian submarines operating
in the Mediterranean had reported that
none Of them was concerned in the
sinking of the Peninsular and Oriental
liner Persia.
The secretary also announced that
he was addressing to Am bassador Nor
genthau for presentation to the Turk
ish government an inquiry as to
whether a Turkish submarine was re-
sponsible. The State Department con-
Siders that the statement from Austria
Hungary closes the question of
whether a submarine of that nation
ality sunk the Persia.

Newport News. Feb. with the
German naval ensign fluttering boldly
from her stern and in charge OF a
German prize crew. the British South
African liner Appam. given up for
lost, took refuge in Hampton Roads
this morning with the story of seven
vessels destroyed by German sea raid
ers off the African coast.
The Appam was captured off the
Canary Islands on January Is by a
German raider four days after she
had sailed from Dakar. British West
Africa, for PlymoutN. Eng.
Whether the captOr was a German
C-boat or a hitherto unreported Ger
man auxiliary cruiser is undeter-
mined. From what was learned by
some of the officials who boarded the
Appam it is believed that some steam
er armed as German auXiliar raid
ing shipping Oft the African coast took
the British liner and put the prize
crew aboard. This view is supported
by the fact that a raider could
hardly have spared a lieutenant and
such large crew to a prize.
