NEWPORT is STARTLED.

NEWPORT is STARTLED.
The submarine startled sleepy New
port late in the afternoon when she
appeared off Goat island. There was a
stir among United States navy men
and at once the torpedo boat O'Brien
put out to convoy the visitor to safe
anchorage alongside the U. S. S. Bir-
ningham. But Lieutenant Rose smil-
ngly told officials there need be no
fuss over his stay for he would be
gone in a brief time. And he was.
His oil engines hummed anew shortly
before six and the vessel. with her
German ensigns flying. headed out into
the dark Atlantic.
She needed no supplies, for hidden
down behind the intricate wheels and
levers was sufficient food and oil for
three months.
PLAINLY A FIGHTER.
There was no effort to conceal the
fact that the vessel was a f1ghter-not
a peaceful freighter like the Deutsch-
land which recently brought in dye
stuffs cargo.
The report that the submarine had
left mail for Ambassador Won Bern
storff was in circulation about the
water front but could not be confirmed
at the United States naval station.
1t was stated at the station that the
daring German commander had, so far
as they knew. simply put in to pay his
respects to the American naval sta
ion commander
OFFICERS ENTERTAINED.
A boat was sent out from the steam
sr Birmingham to bring the submarine
captain and his officers ashore. They
were Immediately taken to the COM
mandant's quarters where they were
entertained for about an hour.
Upon leaving Rose said he was going
outside the harbor and remain there
for the present. This was taken by
naval men to mean he would stay
long enough to be sure that his path
was clear, but they thought he could
get away as readily as did the
Deutschland from Norfolk. In this
connection, they pointed out, naval
strategy teaches that sufficient force
can pick up a submarine anywhere
within range of 200 miles. Allied
ships. however, are not believed to be
off shore in any number.
MONSTER SUBMERSiBLE.
The U-53 is one of the super sub
mersibles of the German navy. She
Is much larger than the biggest type
of submersible of this country. AS
she rested low in the water, her wire

the picture of power and efficiency in
marine construction. Officers of the
big submersible were highly elated at
the surprise their visit gave Newport

on the ships in the harbor who greeted
them with cheers.
Lieutenant Rose informed Captain

the S9 men and FIVE officers aboard
we're in good health and had stood the
Journey and its potential perils well.
Many OF the men--picked from the
kaiser's finest-stood lined along the
deck, smiling and waving their hats,

REPORT GERMANY Will ASK THE
PRESIDENT TO INTERVENE
IN WAR WILL NOT DOWN

New York, Oct 7.-Whipsawed by
conflicting reports, big financial inter :
ests moved with the utmost caution in
Wall street today in response to re-
ports that Germany has decided to
move for peace. Against Ambassador
Bernstorffs positive denial was the re-
iterated statement by President Charles
H. Sabin of the Guaranty Trust COM
pany, the second largest financial in
stitution in New York, that he had
learned from sources of unquestioned
reliability that Germany has decided
to ask for peace.
The fact that Sabin was the banker
who fathered the peace report was
made public about an hour after the
stock market opened. There had been
a rally at the opening and a partial
recovery of the losses sustained yester-
day afternoon when the peace stories
set the stock exchange in a fever of
excitement.
ADVANCES IN PRICES.
Toward the close of the brief Sat
urday session reaction from the
peace sentiment set in and stock
prices generally advanced. The i'm
preston spread through all street that
perhaps Sabin's information had come
from sources anxious to depress the
stock market and make a killing
through sudden drop in prices. The
arrival of the submarine U-53, sup
posedly bearing confidential advices
for Ambassador Bernstorff, coupled
with the Bernstorffs appointment to
see President Wilson Monday lent more
strength to Sabin's statement after
the market had closed.
Friends of the Guaranty Trust COM
pany head said tonight that he did not
tell reporters that Ambassador Gerard
was bearing a peace message from the
kaiser.
He did say that he had positive in
formation that Germany had decided
to ask President Wilson to initiate
peace negotiations, they said, but he
specifically told reporters that he did
not know whether or not Gerard was
bringing the peace message.
PREPARING THE PUBLIC.
One report that gained wide circu-
lation in Wall street after the market
closed this afternoon was that the
peace statement was given out by Sa-
bin to prevent a near panic on the
stock exchange being caused by def
mite word that Germany is bidding
for peace.
According to this report big finan-
ciers received word Thursday of the
nature of the message Ambassador
Gerard is reported to be bearing to
