 TORPEDOED AND SPELLED

According to the ad~ices re-
 ceived here from the American
 embassy at London today the tes-
 limony Of the Americans shows conclusively that the U boat at tackled the steamer without warn ing by firing shells from a short distance, nearly all of which struck the Englishman. The an. nouncement tbat the submarine first fired upon the vessel further eonfuses the situation and it is probable that the administration will take no further action until the full details are to hand. The officials admit that the submarine situation is again assuming a con dition of extreme gravity.
