APANESE LINER SUNK AND 6O
 LIVES LOST

SHANGHAI, Feb. '. - The Japan ese liner Daijimaru was sunk today in collision with the steamer Linan. There were sixty lives lost on the Japanese vessel, the Linan's boats being immediately launched and many being saved. The liner sank too quickly for the crew to get all the life boats off. Nothing official has been learned as to the cause of the collision, but it is believed that the two boats collided in thick weather. The Linan was badly damaged, and was unable to proceed on her voyage. She is returning to Hong Kong for re pairs, carrying the survivors of the disaster.

DUTCH AROUSED 0VER SINKING
 IF TANKER

THE HAGUE. Feb z. The Dutch newspapers are filled with articles in dignaut in tone. and demanding from Germany a prompt explanation and reparation for the torpedoing of the Dutch tank steamer Arremis Biger by a German torpedo boat The sinking of the steamer took place in the North Sea. The newspapers demand also that Germany punish the commander of the torpedo boat for his unwarrant- able act. claiming that it is a clear violation of international law, and an untustifabIe act from any point of view. Many papers openly charge that by torpedoing the steamer the German government has declared war upon the Netherlands. The Wander land strikes a new note when it asks what the British fleet is doing when it allows conspicuously colored Ger man torpedo boat flotillas to cruise about in the North Sea in the busiest steamer track between the Hoop and the Noordhuder lightship.
