GERMAN SUBMARINE ARM
TOUCHES UNITED STATES
Four British, One Norwegian and One
Dutch Steamers Attacked by
Under Sea Graft.

Boston, Oct. 8.-The Submarine arm
of the imperial German navy ravaged
shipping off the eastern coast OF the
United States today.
Four British, one Dutch and one
Norwegian steamers were sent to the
bottom or left crippled derelicts off
Nantucket shoals.
Tonight, under the light Of the
Hunters moon, the destroyer t1otllla
of the United States Atlantic fleet
was picking up passengers and crews
of the destroyed vessels and bring
ing them into Newport, R. I.
So far as is known there was no loss
OF life though at a late hour the crew
of the British steamer Kingston had
not been accounted for lA submarine
held I'D the American steamer Kan
san bound from New York for Genao
with steel for the Italian government,
but later, on establishing her iden-
tity, allowed her to proceed. The
Kansan came into Boston harbor late
tonight for her usual call here.
The hostile submarine is believed
to be the U-53 which paid a call to
Newport Yesterday and disappeared at
sunset. Some naval men, however
declared that at least two submarines
are operating close to the American
shore though outside of the three mile
limit.
