closes the door to members of the

Included in the order was the eX-

WASHINGTON, Nov. IL. - The
case of the American steamship Col
ombia reported sunk off the Spanish
coast will be laid before President
Wilson by the state department early
next week as part of a general sum
mary of recent submarine operations
construed by some officials as fore
casting a radical change in the Ger
man policy.
Information regarding the Colom-
bia was so incomplete tonight that
nc official would predict what part
of the case might play in finad dis
trbution of this governments course.
Late today the American consul AT
Balboa forwarded the report that
the vessel had been sunk thirty miles
off Cape Ortegal and her crew saved
but no details were given.
The report received several days
ago that the Colombia was being
shelled by submarine led many Of
ficials to believe that she probably
was running away, thereby sacrific-
ing her immunity from attack. /,
she carried contraband and was
properly warned the case may re-
solve itself into question of in
demnity.
