proportions that American Charge

GERMAN SUBMARINE SLIPS OUT
OF NEW LONDON HARBOR
AFTER MIDNIGHT PASSES
u. S. CRUISER.

SILVER, WORTH 100000
Undersea Merchantmen Has Several
Sacks of Mail From German En-
baSsy at Neutrality-suspicious.
Hurled at Newspaper Man
Venturing Too Close.

New London, Conn, Nov. 18.-The
Deutschland, the German submarine,
which arrived here November 1, slip
ped out of the harbor at an early hour
bound for Bremen. She left her peck
ct at the state pier at 1870 o'clock and
was lowed down the harbOr by two
tugs.
Captain F. Hinsch and other Off
cials of the Eastern Forwarding COM
pany were on one of the tugs. A
launch filled with newspapermen fol-
lowed the submersible down the
Thames river to the mouth of thf har-
Dor.
Rasses American Cruiser.
The Deutschland passed the United
States cruiser Columbia in the lower
harbor at 1:45 o'clock. Several pass
ing steamers and the Columbia turned
their searchlghts on the boat and
blew their whistles.
While the manifest of the Deutsch-
lands cargo has not yet been made
public, it is estimated that its approx
mate value is over $2,0O0,O00. The
cargo consists largely Of crude rubber,
nickel zinc and silver bars. She also
carries several sacks Of mail from the
German embassy at Washington.
Unusual Activity at Pier.
Unusual activity at the pier where
the submarine lay, preceded the sail
ing of the Deutschland.
At 10 o'clock lights at the pier were
darkened and guards kept Would-be
spectators moving.
Shortly before midnight the great
steel net that guarded the entrance to
the pocket was pulled up on the pier
and all persons were warned to keep
away from the wharf. A plank was
hurled at a newspaperman who ven
tured too close to the wharves. Water
was squirted on other yenturesome
persons.
SearchIights Play on Harbor.
The United Statss cruiser Columbia
played her searchlights over the wa
tiers on the lower harbor necessarily
during the night In some circles the
theory was advanced that the Colum-
bias mission was to see that the neu.
trality laws were observed.
= Some excitement was caused when
the report was circulated that man
with stick of dynamite had eluded
the guards and entered the stockade
which guards the Deutschland. The
police said the incident had not been
reported to them.

at Corunna Spain.

COrunna, Spain, Nov. l6.-Wnen th0
crew of the American steamer Column
bian landed here they were accom-
panied to their hotel by a great crowd
of people seeking stories of the attack
upon the ship, which was shelled and
sunk off the Spanish coast by Il Ger
man submarine.
The captain said he was at dinner
| when he heard the first gun; it sound
ed remote. At the time the Columbian
was making II knots. Suddenly q
shell passed over the ship.
American Flag Hoisted.
Captain Curtis, on the bridge, soon
Afterwards distinguished a submarine
four miles distant. He ordered the
American flag hoisted. The subma-
rine, the U49, approached and sig
nailed the captain to follow it, but
not to approach nor attempt to escape.
All on board the Columbian put on
life belts. The captain prepared to
send his first officer by boat to the
submarine with documents and de-
mand that the American flag be re-
spected, but the sea was too high, and
the trip too hazardous. The Columbian
followed the submarine throughout the
night, being guided by rockets, which
also we're sent up from time to time
by the Columbian by order of the Ger
mans.
Ordered to Abandon Ship.
Toward o'clock in the morning,
six American seamen manned boat
and went with petty officer to the
submarine to explain that it was an
American ship, but they were forced
to take on board a German officer and
two sailors, and carried them to the
Columbian.
The Germans placed in the interior
of the ship two bombs and in the
meantime the German officer ordered
Captain Curtis and his crew to ;.ba1l-
don the ship and go aboard the BALTIC,
which was standing by. There was
some disorder and excitement, but the
officer called out that there was plen.
ty of time and there was no need to
become panicky.
Columbian Is Blown Up.
The crew, before they were allowed
to enter the boats, was examined and
deprived of arms and electric pocket
lamps, but was allowed to take small
part of it's baggage. Captain Curtis
was later required to go aboard the
submarine as a prisoner.
Quantities of foodstuffs were taken

In one Schldg | save sixty words. and
| could also show you, Zapp, how much
could save on the rest of the telegram,
if you want me to-
'1'll take your word for it, Birsky,'
Zapp said 81 already read that tele-
gram, and it's my idee that Mr.. Hughes
figures it wasn't the money, but the
principle of the thing, and the principle
thing of getting a feller's job away from
him is to knock him, and knock him
good. So that's why say, Birsky, that
in sending this here telegram to c. o. d.
Davis, Mr. Hughes done right"
"Aber when he says in the telegram
that the government is responsible for
the Lusitania trouble and the Mexican
trouble and German-American conspira-
cies, y'understand," Birsky said, "why
does he turn right round and say: The
government must have the unstinted
and patriotic support of every sitson in
this existing eXigency'"
Maybe he is trying to put c. O. D.
Davis in bcd," Zapp suggested, because
wouldn't be surprised that when Davis
got through reading aloud this here
telegram to the Progressive National
Committee, all that the members from
Kansas could remember of it was the
way he stumbled over 'sitsons in this ex-
listing exigency,' and as soon as he fin
ished talking, Birsky, they went for
ward and shook hands with him to find
out if he really smelt of liquor or was
it only their imagination. And, any
how, Birsky, it don't make no differ
ence what Mr.. Hughes put in the tele
gram. He could of said that Oklahoma
was a truly rural spot or she sells sea
shells or any of them things, because
at the minute when Roosevelt tells the
National Progressive Committee he
amt going to run for President, them
felers becomes as indiStinguished in
this here Presidential campaign as an
NJ. Cohen i'll city directory. They went
right straight back to private life
"All the same, Zapp, it must of been
a terrible blow to Mr.. Wilson," Birsky
said. Il bet yer so soon as he opened
the morning paper and read Mr.. Roose

stood a pretty good show, Zapp, Mr.
Wilson amt the kind of man which
throws away his money wiring some
body:
"'No intelligent man is deceived by the
temporary prosperity due to abnormal
conditions and no one could fail to APP
preciate the gravity of the problems

call it poor advertising"
Sure know, zapp," Birsky said,

also-like drawing rooms and observa-
ton platforms for them boys. That's

"Sure he is" Birsky replied, land it's

1T wouldn't be too good for 'em at

them people which thinks that except
for getting shot at occasionally by Mex
leans soldier should be treated pretty
near as decent as a convict. My idee
is that if every army officer and pre-
parefulness Teller would talk about serv-
ing in the army in such way that you
would think it was a life and not pun

ut II UGHES was right, Birsky,
in sending that telegram
to c.. O. D. Davis" Barnett
Zapp, the waist manufacturer, said to
Louis Birsky, the real estater.
what dye mean-right? BirSky
retorted as he flourished paper which
contained a copy of the Hughes tele-
gram. "Here is a teller which NIT my
own eyes l seen it picture in the paper
that he is got wife and a whole lot of
children depending on him for living,
understand, and, in the expectation
that he can get Wilson's job away from
him, Zapp, he throws up good posi-
ton with the Supreme Court, under
stand me, and, instead of saving his
money in case he don't land the Presi-
dency, Zapp, he goes to work and blows
it in on telegram which, even if he
sent it as a night letter, Zapp, must of
cost him at the very least S21.51."
SAY Zapp protested with Roose-
vent to back him, should be so sure of
landing a $4,000 order from B. Altman
oder Marshall Field as Hughes is of
landing the Presidency"
"Never mind" Birsky said. ITS the
old case OF the teller being now between
two stools, Zapp, and, instead of cut
ting out the offs and the 'thes,' yum
derstand, he couldn't of written the
telegram more extravagencely if he
would be trying to show how he didn't
give nickel how much money he threw
away on kilograms. For instance, he
starts in by writing: I welcome the
support of the Progressives, which |
leave it to you, Zapp, that, even if a fell
Ter would get to write such StuSs in a
telegram, Zapp, why couldn't ne say,
'Progressives support welcome, and
save four words? What for an econOm-
ical administration could you expect
from such Teller, Zapp? Am l right
or wrong?"
-Four words in telegram amt 60
ing to make or break him." Zapp COM
mented.
That's only a sample" Birsky con-
tinued. Here toward the end of the
telegram he writes:
TO what agency shall we look for
the essential constructive programme
on which our security and prosperity
must depend? 1t is vain to expect it
from the Democratic party. That party
has not the national outlook. Both its
traditions and dominating influences
are fatal handicaps. l have no sectional
word to utter. We are to elect Presi-
dent of the whole country, not part.
The South as well as the North, East
and West will be the gamers from our
endeavors
