U.BOAT WAR STOPPED
BY use OF TRAWLERS
American Back From England Says
Notes Didn't Do Ii.

Special 10 The W&shinstcu Herald.
New York, Sept. h-The New York
Evening Post today said: That II is the
great feet OF British trawlers, which Is
continually sweeping the coasts Of the
Irish and North seas and not President
Wilson'S notes to the German govern
ment, that has stopped submarine war
rare, is the opinion OF r. z. Cropley, Of
Summit, n. J.. who arrived in this city
yesterday on the Orduna after a trip TO
england TO investigate British hospitals
and hospital ships in the interests Of the
American Red Cross. Mr.. Cropley said
today that he had been reliably informed
In England that eighty-six submarines.
among them the Bremen, had been cap
tured so far.
Mr.. Cropley sailed from New York on
August ls, and said that on Sunday, Au-
gust a. about dusk. coast guards spotted
German submarine on Fastnet waiting
for her, About twelve hours lateR as
the steamship approached the coast. a
trawler came alongside and Eignslled
that the Tuscania was running into the
danger zene, where the submarine was
spotted and that she ought TO change
her course
The captain" said Mr.. Cropley, an
sWered that he was on admiralty orders
ano that he would not change his course.
Lots OF trswlers with nets then went
ahead because a German mine-laying
submarine had been laying mines in the
transatlantic course irrespective Of the
fact that American liners were sailing
the same course. Suddenly a British pa
troll boat, one OF the thirty-knot cruisers
they have built for this particular work,
dashed up and signslled: You are run
| ming right into danger
As she did this, a mile away a peri
scope was seen to rise, but the trswlers
with nets were between II and the Tus-
canis. The trawlers at once began 70
surround the submarine and the long,
black guns on their decks began to nash
The TuscaniA Immediately zig-zagged TO
safety. Later, from sources which can
not tell, l heard that the submarine was
captured.
England has captured eighty-six of
those German submarines, I learned from
that same source. and among them is
the Bremen, which is now tied UP 81 a
port IN the Firth Of Forth, in Scotland
That American lives on the high seas are
being saved by British trswlers and not
by President Wilson's notes is proven by
! the number OF submarines captured.
These trawleTs stretch themselves out
from coast TO coast across the Irish and
North Seas. Between them are nets and
! all they do is drift and wait for visitors,
and at the same time this drifting sweeps
| the mines. We passed for hours trawIers
sweeping mines and submarine-catching
and learned that the reason we did not
go across the nets was that there were
mines on the other side that the Germans
1 had laid. Some day there is going to be
a terrible disaster, and the chances are
| that American lives will be lost That
so many have been saved is due directly
| TO the means England has devised OF
sweeping the seas about her coasts"
