REPORT MADE
BY SUBMARINE
British steamer Rowanmore Was sunk
on October 26, 145 Miles on
Cape Clear.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Servfce.I
BERLIN, Nov. 15.-The admiralty
TO-DAY transmitted to the foreign once
the rcccr. &c the submarine command
er who sank the British steamer
Rowanmore on October 26, 145 miles
on Cape Clear.
The foreign office soon will issue An
official explanation of the matter TO
Secretary Grew, of the American en-
bassy at Berlin.
Contrary to reports from America,
and England there is no excitement
and only unconcern here over AMER
can injuries regarding recent suDma-
rinirgs OF merchant ships because
every one here is convinced that Y
boat commanders are not v1oiatinB
their instructions.
The Rowanmore, according TO pc
lief here, was forced to step after nrst
refusing to heed the sub-sea captain
orders.
It is understood here the report OF
the submarine commander declares
the crew deserted the captain OF the
Rowanmore because of his actions and
that he was finally compelled to row
alone wien the crew took to the boats.
That is the reason he was saved on
the submarine. It is denied TIE sub
marine fired at the crew after the men
had taken to their small boats.
Investigation OF the other submarin-
fnxs which have resulted In inquiries
by the United States state department
continues, but the reports of the sub
marine commanders concerned have
not all come In.
