of German submarines are now at
hand and published.
"A German submarine on August 10
about p. m. sighted five small Eng
Iish cruisers steaming southeastward
accompanied by two flotillas of de-
stroyers behind which we're six battle
cruisers strongly protected by destroy

ing a torpedo against one Of the pro-
tecting destroyers with four tunnels,
apparently of the Mohawk type. A
short while after being hit the destroy
er sank with its stew standing high
out of the water.
Immediately the whole English
squadron turned on its heels. The
submarine now attacked a small
cruiser running 25 miles, of the Chat
ham type, which was now stove be-
hind. Two shots were fired, one into
the forecastle and the other the fire
room. The ship Immediately showed
a heavy list and stopped.
