SHIPS FOLLOWING U-53
EQUIPPED FOR BATTLE
Destroyers Carried Ammunition and
War Heads on Torpedoes.

The American destroyers that went out
on rescue work during the operations OF
the German submarine U-53, on Nam
tucket Lishtship last Sunday, had every
thing ready for battle, it was disclosed
yesterday.
The destroyers carried war heads on
their torpedoes, ammunition at all guns
and were prepared for instant action,
presumably against the German subma-
rines, according to a letter from Lieut..
Lee Cummins Carey an officer OF the
United States destroyer Benham, to his
father, w. Lee Carey, of Baltimore
The Benham participated in the rescue
of persons from the ships destroyed by
the U-53, and came within a few yards OF
ramming the German submarine, Lieut.
Carey declared.
His letter follows, in part:
"On Saturday the German submarine
U.s. entered Newport Harbor and pas
sing quite near the Benham, anchored
only a quarter of a mile away. After
paying the various official calls her cap

all American officers aboard, of which
Invitation we all quickly and gladly
availed ourselves.
After being anchored about three
hours, she quickly got up anchor and
again was at sea in a few minutes, lost

Baltimore Man Formerly Suf-

Daily. Claims Dreco Has
Cured Him.

II would be willing to buy a bottle of
Dreco every week for the balance OF nv
natural life If 1t were necessary" said
Mr.. NJ. Oesterle, who lives at S16 Mary
land avenue, and is an expert glass
blower at Carr-Lowrey's Glass Works at
Westport.
Il have suffered untold agonfes with nv
stomach for a long time" he continued.
Everything would eat seemed to sour,
bloat me all up until felt like a rope
was tried around my waist and the
pains were unbearable. Then would
empty my stomach with a stomach pump
and get relief Even a glass Of water
would ferment and come back up, and
be as hot as fire.
"All the time I was using the stomach
pump was growing weaker, for the food
l would pump out was what should have
been staying there and producing
strength, but it was the only relief 1
could get. became terribly constipated.
got very nervous, couldn't sleep and was
losing flesh daily. My work became a
hard task, but I was sticking it out and
hoping all the time to find something that
would help me.
There was so much talk about Dreco.
the new stomach remedy, decided to try
it. Now, listen to this-when 1 had taken
one-haf Of the first bottle 1 stopped using
the stomach pump and haven't used II
since. My appetite began to increase,
and I'd eat more than had in many a
day-and it didn't hurt me, either. The
gas stopped forming, the pains vanished,
began to grow stronger and the ner-
vousness ceased and I could sleep a
whole night through without waking. NY
bowels would act daily in a normal and
natural way. I have now taken three
bottles of DrecO, and I'd be willing to buy
bottle every week for the balance of
my life If it were necessary, but I think
couple more will make me well and
strong"
Dreco is composed Of the Juices and
extracts Of many different medicinal
herbs, roots, barks and berries. It COM
bines perfectly with the juices of the
stomach and neutralizes the acid forma-
ton, thereby relieving indigestion and
gastritis. 1t also acts on the organs of
elimination and puts a stop to constipa-
ton promptly.
Dreco Is sold and recommended by
O'DonnelTs Drug Stores. By Aliens drug
store in Alexandria. BY Bury's drug
store IN Aaseestia-AdY.

20, 900 workmen of the Canal Zone are idle
and following fights in the streets Of
Panama twelve negroes, alleged to be
leaders Of the strikers have been arrest
ed and will be tried for violation of the
intimidation law. The streets of the city
today were cleaned by prisoners
The locks, dams and other machinery
of the Canal are under guard. Lieut.. Col
Harding, acting governor Of the Canal
Zone, urged upon President Valdez that
action was necessary before the strike
assumed moresseriOus proportions and the
arrests were made.
1t is said that the number OF men actu-
ally on strike numbers only 500, and the
remainder of the 10000 quit work under
threats of violence The activity of the
strikers thus far has been confined to the
city OF Panama.
The mechanical municipal, building and
commissary departments all are short Of
men. There has been as yet no delay

Bob" Barbee, a policeman attached to
the First precinct has made mighty
blow at the record OF the worlds bravest
cop" Barbee has twice arrested the
father Of Maj. Pullman. his chief, within
the past few weeks.
In a very short time Maj. Pullman will
draw up the list of policemen in his de-
pArtment whose record entities them to
promotion, and Barbee has put some nm
ishing touches on his own record which
will make it difficult to overlook him.
Regulations are regulations, according
to Barbee and when he found that Pc
ter r. Pullman, father of the local po-
lice head had parked his automobile in
a tobooed location, Barbee calmly took
Father Pullman's number and took the
case to court. Pullman paid S2 and let
1t go at that.
A short time later. the elder Pullman
drove his car into the same restricted
part Of the street. and again Barbee got
him. 1t happened each time in front Of
Mr.. Pullman's office in G street, between
Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets north
west.
Didn't Know Prisoner.
The first time Barbee arrested his
chiefs father, the policeman had no idea
Of the elder Pullman's identity beyond
his name, and three days elapsed before
some one told him what ha had done. The
second time Barbee caught Mr.. Pullman
however. the latter's Identity was no So
cret at all, but Barbee didn't finch.
So that's how Barbee came to be a high
bidder for the title Of the worlds bravest
cop" and he did it without chasing a
burglar. although Barbee's record shows
him a frst-class burglar chaser, too.
Barbee has a record that is envied by
many OF his friends in the police depart
ment. He has acquired It by conscien-
tlous and efficient service combined with
the quality known as nerve" He has
long list OF good cases'' to his credit,
meaning that he has recovered much
stolen property and caught numerous vio-
lators OF the law.
