Ministry Of Marine Admits Fear
That French Cruiser Is Latest
Victim Of Renewed Activity Of
Teutonic Underwater Craft
ADMIRAL cHARNER NOT r.,
HEARD FROM FOR DAYS
British Vessel Reported Sunk In
North Sea BY German Raider;
Her Commander and Some Of
Her Crew Have Been Rescued
(ASsOciated Press ~ Federal wirsisss.D

Y ONDON, February 14.-With the
recrudescence of the German sub
marine campaign FIVE, and possibly
six ships, belonging to the Allies have
been sent to the bottom within the last
few days. The Outcrop Of underwater
activity has not alarmed London, how
ever, but it has made II mad, and there
is much talk here of additional action
against the Teutonic undersea fighters.
Pear Cruiser Lost
The most important of the late sub
marine victims is the French cruiser
Admiral Charner, it il feared. The
French ministry of marine last night is
sued a formal statement in which It is
asserted that no news has been had o.
the Admiral Charner since February s.
This is the day, upon which the
Berlin admiralty announced that 0
French warship had been sunk by Ger
man submarine, - the communique adds.
The Admiral Charner, one of the new
er of the French feet of cruisers, has
been on patrol duty off the coast of Sy-
ria, and her long silence lends color to
the German claim.
British Ships Sunk
~ bhS AhSNAANtluhNoh bhN lDiltAnh
Springwell was sunk by Teuton sub.
marine without warning, but al of her
crew were saved. The British steamer
Cederwood, of London, was also tor
pedoed and sunk, and of her crew but
two are reported to have been rescued.
Berlin also reported that the British
ship Aribis, was torpedoed in the North
sea last Thursday, and sunk. The Ger
man report that the submarine rescued
the commander and surgeon, with two
other officers and 81 members of the
crew. Three of the men died Of ex-
posure, it is reported, while on their way
tolshore.
AS usual in these submarine raids the
neutral nations also suffered, and the
Norwegian steamer Alabama, is the last
of the neutral victims. She was sunk
Saturday afternoon, but her crew man,
aged to escape in the boats.
