srs Sent to Hottom or Left Grip

Three-Mile Limit.

oston.-Four British, one Dulch
md one Norwegian steamers were
sent to the bottom or left crippled der
sIicts off Nantucket on Sunday.
The submarine arm Of the Imperial
German navy is blamed with the at
Jack on the vessels.
Sunday night the destroyer notiiia
~ the United States Atlantic feet was
picking up passengers and crews Oh
the destroyed vessels and bringing
them to Newport, R. |.
So far as known, there was no loss
Of life. though the crew of the British
steamer Kingston had not been &C
counted for.
submarine held up the American
steamer Kansas, bound from new
York for Genoa with steel for the
Italian government, but later, on es-
tablishing her identity, allowed the
American to proceed. The kansan
came into Boston harbor late at night
for her usual call here.
The hostile submarine is believed
to be the U-5S, which paid call TO
Newport Saturday, and disappeared at
sunset. Some naval men, however.
declared that at least two submarines
are operating close to the American
shore, though outside the three-mile
limit.
The sensation created when the
T-53 Quietly slipped into Newport har'
Dor, and as quietly slipped away three
hours later, was nothing to the shock
in shipping circles when wireless re-
ports Of submarine attacks began to
come into the naval radio stations
Just before noon Sunday. Within a
few minutes the air was literally
charged with electricity as wireless
messages of warning were broadcast
ed along the coast.
The submarine or submarines had
taken position directly in the steam
ar lanes.
Vessels of the entente allied nations
and neutral bottoms carrying contra
band of war scurried to get within
the three-mile limit of the American
shore. Several that were following
the outside course shifted and made
for the inside lane. The Stephano of
the Red Cross line, however, was
caught outside the neutral zone.
The destruction of this vessel was
perhaps the biggest prize of the day.
The craft had been sold to the Rus
sian government and would have been
used as an ice-breaker after her pres.
ent trip.
The executive officer of the de
stroyer Erickson, returning early Sun
day from the scene of the German
submarine activities off Nantucket
reported that nine ships had been
sunk and that three submarines were
operating off the coast. This infor
nation, he said, he had on the author
ity of the captain of the Nantucket
shoals lightship.
