United States Lost None In
August; Britain Leads In
Ship Tonnage Lost

Copies Of the New York Journal OF
Commerce Of September received by
Deputy Collector OF Customs Raymer
Sharp say that the number of mer-
chant vessels Of all classes and types
destroyed during % months of the Eu-
ropean war, due to torpedoes, mines
and uncertain causes. is 1884. with a
total gross tonnage Of approximately
2,939,9l5, as shown by records compil.
ed from all available data by The
Journal Of Commerce from August /,
1914, to September !, 1915. "
Inadequate cable dispatches and the
failure to report at all some OF the
losses until a considerable time has
elapsed from their occurrence make it
impossible to present exact figures for
the entire period, but up to August
the losses are about complete. The
receipts Of later information may
make necessary the revision Of the
September figures The figures rep
resenting the amount of tonnage de-
stroyed are not excessive, as is proved
by the fact that the tonnage of many
ships named in the lists is not record
ed and has. therefore not been includ-
ed in the total.
Submarines More Active
Increased activity on the part OF
both Austrian and German submarines
in the mediterranean and North Seas,
particularly during the first half of
last month, brings the August total
considerably above that for July, when
the tonnage lost amounted TO 102.h22
gross tons, as compared to 123,397
tons In August. The number of YES
sells sunk was fewer, 80 as compared
with las, but "a small Turkish sailing
boats we're listed as destroyed In July.
In June, 6I vessels OF 126.369 gross
tons were sunk and In May 63 ships
of 1884 gross tons, showing that Ene
rate of destructien has been well main
tanned. 81
British Losses Smaller
British losses were smaller In Aug
nst than in July. but the losses Of
Italian shipping increased almost 800

Lurline Loses
Two Blades In

MatSon Steamer Sheds Second
Blade Put on 80 Days Ago,
Examination Reveals .

When the Matson steamer LurliEe
was appended" in the Inter-Island

that the propeller blade which cracked
and came off at sea a week ago Sat-
urday vas a new blade put on only
three months ago TO replace one which

On a down voyage.
The new blade vas put on and the
steamer flOated out at 4 o'clock Sun
day afternoon. She moved to Pier
10, where non-unIon stevedores were
put to work loading sugar aboard.
This was finished at IL O'Clock last
night and another speedy move was
made, so that by 11:20 the liner was
alongside Pier 10 and loading was
again in progress at full speed.
At noon today Castle & Cookies
shipping department was confident
the Lurline would get all her cargo
aboard in time to steam for San Fran
cisco at noon tomorrow from Pier ~.
II she can do this it will be quite
remarkable feat, as she will have
made up a full day. IL hours lost at
sea because of lessened speed due to
the breaking of a propeller blade and
the ether IL in drydock getting a new
blade in place. She will probably go
On q drydock at San Francisco for

Oahu. the Standard Oil tanker Col.
T. l.. Drake locked at Pier II this
morning with $4,000 barrels of crude
oil in her tanks, in addition to the
supply of the liquid so necessary for
making motor vehicles run. She also

MERCHANT VESSELSSUNKS Since
BEGINNINGOF war NOW 1854

per cent Norwegian losses remained
about the same as in the preceding
month. The greatest activity on the
part of submarines was noted in the
Mediterranean, Greek and Spanish
shipping being affected more severely
than for some time past Japan. which
has escaped losses In recent months,
lost two ships In August.
Submarines Sink 66 Vessels
A feature of the months record was
the comparatively few number Of cas-
es in which the sinking of a ship wGs
not reported as the result Of torpejJ-
ing. SiXty-five OF the vessels lost were
reported to have been destroyed by
German or Austrian submarines; only
three resulted from mines, while the
causes OF other losses were uncertain
The steamer Weser, the only German
ship destroyed during the month, was
sunk by an Allied submarine. The at
lacks OF submarines in the North Sea
were confined principally to trawlcrs
and small craft.
The Stampalia, an Italian steamer
Of 5000 gross tons, was the largest
ship sunk during August and was larg-
er than any vessel sunk in recent
months. Very few ships of any con-
siderable size were destroyed.
Ships sunk in July but not included
in last months totals in the issue OF
August are, as reported since that
date, the Dutch steamer Mas, 1874
tons. sunk by a mine; the British
steamer Teano. 1907 tons, torpedoed;
the Swedish schooner Preference, 222
tons, cause uncertain: Norwegian
lighter Mary, 511 tons, torpedoed.
v. S. Lost None in August
Great Britain continues to top the
list of nations which have lost mer-
chant ships as a result of the war, the
total British tonnage destroyed having
reached the amount Of 1,775,6l1 gross
tons. or considerably more than half
of the total tonnage of all flags
destroyed. France is second with a
total of 2l4,503 tons; Germany. third
with lS7.72S tons: while Italy's losses
have passed those OF Norways and
she now ranks fourth, having lost 49,.
349 gross tons, compared with III .647
for Norway The United States did
not lose ship last month.

MANILA, Sept. 3 Gable to New

British steamer AymeriL, from New
York and Victoria. b. G., boHEd for
Penang in the Straits Settlements, has
been detained a. HongKLHs and Ion
packages OF her cargo have Leen re-
moved.
The ccrgO o. goods seized at Hong
kong by the British authorities early
last month en- the British steamship
Kaf,le, from New York for Manila,
was brought to this port today by the
British steamship City Of Durham.
The City of Durham was chartered
to the owners OF the Kafue in order
to show continuous voyage and thus
escape the payment OF duties. -
AS the City of Durham unloaded it
was seen that $500 packages destined
tor Manila were missing. The ques-
ton of the payment of duty rests upon
the Identification of the delivered por-
ton of the cargo as having been
brought from New York on a through
voyage.
The American goods on the Kafue
we're confiscated by the British auth
critics at Hongkeng on the suspicion
that they were consigned to German
firms in the Philippines. Prior to the
detention of the Kafue there was a
similar seizure of goods on the steam
ship Chinese Prince and two Spanish
vessels. s;f".@. %. y II '.-:. ..::.~" .:.:.
