QUESTION SINKING OF "KINGSTON"- TOLL OF
GERMAN U-BOAT REDUCED TO FIVE

Newport, R. l., Oct. 10.-Eleven
American destroyers, steaming in
line with five miles of rolling ocean
between them, today swept the At
lantic off Nantucket, where fiXe or
six freighters were sunk by a German
submarine last Sunday, in another
effort to locate the crew of the King
ston or KingstoniOn.
When Admiral Gleaves ordered the
destroyers out at 9:2O today he adj
mitted it would probably be a useless
search after the aIl-night gale and
cold weather.
The destroyers out last night failed
to locate any survivors and Admiral
Gleaves was skeptical Of the success
of the new expedition. He planned, ,
however, not to have them stay out
longer than "a hours, feeling that if
such a ship as the Kingston was sunk
and the men are still alive they GER
tainly will be located in that time.
Within the last II hours an argu-
ment has arisen as to whether the
name of the ship supposed to have
been sunk was the Kingston or the
Kingstonian. Capt. E. L. Yates of
the Uruguyan steamer P. L M. No. 4,
which rescued the crew of the Brit
ish steamer Strathdene, said he be-
ieved the name of the Christian
Knudson had been misread Kings
ton" in some way when reports were
transmitted by wireless.
1t was also pointed out that. all of
the steamers were sunk within a
comparatively small radius. The
crews of the five ships known to
have gone down were easily and
speedily found by U. S. destroyers.
To further bear out the theory that
the reporting of the Kingston is most
likely an error, it was pointed out
that three additional ships were re-
ported as sunk in wireless messages
to all New England points yesterday

northeast, last night was most quiet
night off New England coast since
German submarine U-53 sailed out of
Newport late Saturday.
No vessels passing along the lane"
off Nantucket ightship cracked their
wireless or gave any other sign of
their presence. The German under
sea monsters were equally quiet and
apparently have vanished as sudden
ly as they appeared.
Nantucket radio station reported
that "all keys were silent" through
out night and Charlestown navy yard
station said it had little to do and
heard nothing from U-boat zone.
No word has been heard of French
Canadian liner Great City, cargoed
with contraband and bound for St.
Nazaire, France. She left Boston
early Monday morning and was due
to pass through submarine war
zone" sometime last night.
The American-HaWaiian liner,
Kansan, only liner carrying NUM-
lions for allies that escaped being
sunk by submarine, although her pa
pers were examined Sunday, has not
left her pier in Charlestown. French
Canadian line office declares that
shipment of horses which she stop
ped here for on her way from New
York to st. Nazaire has delayed her
start, but it is felt that kaiser's under
sea navy is real cause.
When it became known that Kan
san stopped at Boston to take on
more grain and 1000 horses it was
belief in shipping circles, that U-boat
intended to clay" for her when she
left Boston. The Kansan is an Amer
lean registered vessel, but is under
charter to French-Canadian line.
Washington, Oct. 10.-Ass't Sec'y
of Labor Post today issued an order
to all immigrant station on the At
