USED In LAST RAID
Paris Declares New Type Can Garry
Ton and Half of Explosives.
Resides Cannon.

Paris, Feb. Zeppelin airships which
took part in the latest raid on England
are of an enormous new type much
larger than any ever before seen.
The Matin, in an article today, gives
the specifications of the new super
Zeppelins. These aerial monsters have
a volume of 5000 cubic metres each
and instead of being cigar-shaped, have
the form of huge fish. The Zeppe-
Inns are driven by eight 2oo-horse power
motors and are capable of a speed Of
70 mile. an hour. The ordinary speed
of the big balloons is s5 miles an hour.
The air ships are equipped with three
propellers each and are covered with a
scientific aluminium paint which rem
ders them as nearly invisible as possible.
The armament consists of several small
cannons, machine guns and about a ton
and a half of explosives

the guerillas disposed of the sentries and
hurled incendiary bombs among the
wagons, causing a panic and heavy losses
in material The guerillas escaped un-

Chicago, Feb. For three hours OF
untold horror DR.. Edward Cunat, OF this
city, clung to a plank in a sea dyed with
human blood after the Italian steamer
Brindisi went down in the Adriatic Sea
on January last. Then he was picked
up by the Italian steamship Citta de
Barri and put back to Brindsi, Italy.
Sunday the physician returned here and
told the story of a vain attempt of the
rockingham unit of the American Red
Cross, to which he belonged to go to
the aid of eleven other physicians and
nurses who aye laboring among 1900, 900
Serbian and /Montenegrin refugees in
Montenegro.
DIR. Cunats unit was composed of two
physicians. two nurses and an orderly.
They were Dr. George Gucha and DR..
Cunat, Miss Marie Iamos and Miss
Stephani f. Hampl. the nurses, and
Frank Synocek. the orderly. all of Chi
cago, except Miss Hampl who was from
New York.
With them they carried 10000 pounds
Of foodstuffs, much clothing. medical sup
plies and $4,000 in gold, all of which was
lost with the Brindisi.
1T was about O'Clock in the morning
of January when the Brindisi struck
the mine" said DIR. Cunat. The ship
sank very rapidly after the shock Many
of those in the water were drawn into
the swirl of the propeller, which was
revolving at high speed. Their bodies
were fairly ground to bits. and the sea
was red with their blood.
IT saw Miss Hampl, the nurse from
New York, die like that. and I could not
raise a hand to save her"
