over the situation centcrcd chiefly
about the possibility Of what might

NEWPORT. II. l.. oct. Q. - The
~ Wholesale raid on foreign
shipping south of Nantucket lightship
Sunday was the work of one subma-
rine, according to reports of Amer-
can naval officers. Rear Admiral AL
bert Gleaves, commanding the torpedo
boat destroyer flotilla which did such
remarkable speedy rescue work yes
terday, said tonight that the reports
of all his officers agreed that to the
best Of their observation one raider
only was concerned This boat pre-
sumably was the German U-53 which
called at Newport Saturday.
Admiral Gleaves said he could
easily understand the positive state
ments of the captain of Ihe Nantucket
lightship and of sailors OF the tor
pedoed vessels that more than one
sumersible was concerned. The L.
boat, he said, was very fast and ap-
peared to have been handled cleverly.
1t was easy, he pointed out, for her
to disappear on one side Of a ship and
then show up Unexpectedly at an
other spot. Doubtless. he believed, she

WeIsh Sayn He WilI Fight All.

Every fighter in the world enti- tied to a crack at the lightweight crown will have an opportunity to wrest it from me within the next year. After that 1 am going to re- tire and retire for good. There will be no inducement great enough to entice me back into the ring once have discarded my lighting togs"
 Thus Freddie Welsh, lightweight champion of the world, mapped out the program for the conclusion of his pugilistic career in Seattle the other day, according to the Seattle Times sporting editor.
 Since winning his championship on July z, 1914, Welsh has fought forty battles. During the next 12 months Harry Pollock, his manager has mapped out schedule of work which will keep the champion be- fore the public almost constantly and which will do much in deter mining his real championship met tie.
 Since becoming champion l have given every worthy boy chance at the title, said Welsh. Fighting is a business with me and no long CT crave the honor that goes with it. If a man is entitled to chance at the crown, am willing to give 1t to him is agreeable terms can be reached. But, as 1 am champion, l reserve the right to dictate terms.
 Fate of Title.
 Should I retire from the ring un- defeated in June, 1917, cannot at present tell to whom my title would go. Az things stand right now, however, see three men above all others in the eligibility list-Ritchie Mitchell, Johnny Dundee and Benny Leonard. All are good fighters and all shall get a chance to fight me before my retirement. If some of the three acquires the title from me before I retire, they will have to ! fight it out between themselVes aI- ter my retirement
 "Of course, a whole lot of things might come up between now and next June to change the entire as- pectc of the championship eligibility Hist. The lineup have iescrib- ed is, in my opinion, a summary oi the present situation,
