TWO AMERICANS

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. 30.
Two Americans were members
of the crew of the British steam
err Marina, sunk Saturday. Con-
sui Frost at Queenstown cabled
the state department today.
There were also five Filipinos
in the crew, he said.
The American consul at
Queenstown today telegraphed
that the Marina was SINK with
out warning by gun fire Satur-
day afternoon.
A Lloyds' dispatch from Rock
haven said that the Marina's crew
was aboard patrol boat but
made no mention of the proba-
bic casualties.
The Marina was a steel screw
steamer of 5,204 tons, built IN
1900 and owned by the Donald
son line. She flew the British
flag and was registered at Glas-
gov.
The Marina was sunk about 8
p. m. Saturday, one hundred miles
west of Cape Clear, Frost said.
Thirty-four of the crew OF 104
had been landed at BrookhaveH.
he said, while lifeboats numbers
l and were missing.
In fixing the blame for the de-
struction OF the vessel it will be
necessary to determine the char
acter of its charter.
Some of the horse ships which
have been plying between the
United States and England have
been under direct or indirect
charter by the British and French
governments. In such cases they
assume the character for the time
being of admiralty vessels and are
subject to attack without warm
ing.

 Sometimes. the flares snow tell-tale white strips of tape laid forward in straight lines from a German trench This generally means an attempted raid and the tapes are laid to guide the attackers in the dark and prevent them from getting twisted about, for trench lines are extremely tortuous and it is difficult to keep positions clearly in mind.
 lt was found early in trench warfare that in the light of flares white faces were shown with uncanny radiance, so nowadays various devices are employed by both sides to prevent this. Some captured Germans have their faces darkly painted. Black or brown veiis are also worn
 Flares and rockets grow ghastly pale and green in the light of coming day. The all night vigil has made the sol aires "iumpy" and there is the crackle of rifles all along the line. There are spectres in the dawn. and firing the rifles seems to give the men a sense Of relief and protection.
