STORY OF THE SEA RAID


 BOSTON, Oct S.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 steamer were sent to the bottom or left crippled derelicts off Nantucket shoals.
 Tonight the destroyer flotilla of the United States Atlantic fleet was picking up passengers and crews of the destroyed vessels and bringing them into Newport. R. I. So far AS known there was no loss of life though the crew of the British steamer Kingston had not been ac- counted for. sFS A submarine held up the American steamer Kansan, bound from New York for Genoa with steel for the Italian government, but later. on es- tablishing her identity, allowed tn; American to proceed. The Kansar came into Boston harbor late tonight for her usual call here.
 The hostile submarine is believed to be the U-55 which paid a call tc Newport yesterday and disappeared at sunset. Some naval men, how ever, declared that at least two sub- marines are operating close to thu
 
 three mile limit.

PETROGRAD. Oct. s, CVia London. Oct.

 DEEP CONCERN OVER RAvAGES
IRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

 President Wilson and government of ficials here expressed deep concern tonight over the sinking of the four British steamers off the American coast by a German submarine, but up to late hour no official word had been received indicating that in- ternational complications would fol- low.
 The government offirais were plain ly worried over the situation. and made efforts to get all information obtainable. It was stated that the president would keep his mind open until definite information is supplied through official circles. The ques- tions of administration officials cen tered around whether any Americans had been lost and wether the ves- sels were warned in accordance with international law.
 With the receipt of word of the sinking of the vessels so near the American coast. additional import ance was attached to the visit here tomorrow of Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador, while the engagement of the ambassador with the president was made to enable him to give Mir Wilson a personal letter from the German emperor on the Polish relief question, it was talk en for granted that the activities of the German submarine would be dis cussed Count Von Bernstorff will see the president at o'clock in the afternoon.
 Count von Rernstorff has carried ] on all his negotiations over subma rine warfare through Secretary Ian- sing and Counsellor Polk of the state department. and it was thought like | ly the president would change this method of procedure
