CAPTAIN OF EMDEN
ESCAPED; RECAPTURED
He and 81 Others Rig Up Dummies to
Deceive English Sentries-Dig
Tunnel From Prison
Camp.

London, Sept. 27-0ne of the most
daring escapes from interment camps
was effected Tuesday at Kegworth, Not
tingham. Twenty-Five German prison
ers, including Captain Muller, who com
manded the cruiser Emden, and Lieu
tenant Otto Thelan, disappeared. through
a tunnel extending from a hut in the
camp to a psint outside the barbed wire
fence, How the tunnel was dug is a
mystery.
Nine OF the prisoners were recaptured
including Captain Muller and Lieutenant
Thelan. The latter made three previous
escapes. With Lieutenant Emil Teh-
mann, another of the recaptured prison
ers, he fled from the detention barracks
at Chelmsford last May.
The Germans made dummy locks of
cardboard, substituting them for the
locks on the cell doors. Dummy figures
to deceive the sentry were made from
bed clothes and some of their own gar
ments. To make these figures the more
realistic they were decorated with shocks
of hair from their mattresses.

TWO U-B0ATS
ARE DESTROYED
In Attack on United States
Transports, Carrying
Troops
TROOP SHIPS ESCAPE
IN SUBMARINE DRIVE
One Attacking Raider Was
Rammed by British
Merchantmen

An Atlantic Port, Sept. 27.-The story
of a-submarine attack on two big steam.
ships carrying American troops in which
two Uboats were destroyed with no
losses to the transport was told by pas
sengers on ship reaching this port
yesterday.
One of the underseas boats was rammed
by n merchantmen which already had
the record of dispatching six U-boots,
while the other was struck by subma.
rne mine dropped from destroyer.
There were apparently two separate
attacks on the conveyed fotilla, one at
midnight and the other shortly after
daybreak the next morning. The liners
with troops were close to the other side
and under convoy when the enemy craft
was sighted. A single submarine was
seen during the midnight attack, which
was aimed at one of the biggest British
liners. Only one torpedo was fired on
this occasion, and the projectile passed
the ships stern as the gun crew began
peppering the periscope.
The second attack, in which the two
U-boats were rammed and sunk, again
demonstrated the efficiently prompt
measures now operating against the un-
derseas sneaks.
One of the submersibes showed itself
off the starboard bow on one of the
liners.
Then the U-boat commander started
his craft across the bow of the British
ship, a manoeuvre which exactly suited
the Englishman Signalling full speed
ahead, he sent his sharp bow squarely
through the body of the submarine. The
stern of the IT, boat was seen tossed in
the air before it settled and sunk with
the rest of the hulk.
This submersible had just been account
ed for when the crew of mine sweeper |
sighted another which was also destined |
for quick destruction. The big liner |
was proceeding behind the conveying ship |
when the sweeper began firing at the
raiders periscope. Then destroyer,
,oming up at full speed, dropped depth
bomb over the spot where the periscope
bad suddenly gone from view.
This was followed by a er-like
eruption, which, according to the story
old yesterday, brought the ruptued
null of the U-boat to the surface. Then
he submersble sunk for the last time,

TUBERCULOSIS AND WAR
Is One of the Subjects to Be Discussed
at New England Conference in
Rutland.

The fact that in all of the nations en-
gagged in the war there has been an in
crease in the prevalence OF tuberculosis
has determined the directors of the New
England tuberculosis conference to make
tuberculosis and the war the principal
subject for the meetings at Rutland Oct.
and 5. There will be sessions OF the
conference from Thursday morning until
Friday afternoon, at which civilian and
military experts will discuss the effec-
tiveness of various means of preventing
tuberculosis. The public is cordially in
vited to all of the sessions.
| The big event of the conference, how
ever, will be the mass meeting at the
Shrine theatre Thursday night. Ad
dresses of welcome will be delivered by
Governor Graham and Mayor Brislin.
Following these, experts of international
reputation will speak on the subject OF
tuberculosis and nation at war There
will be music between the addresses and
at the close motion pictures.
The Vermont Association for the Pre-
vention of tuberculosis, which will act
as host for the delegates from other
states is endeavoring to secure large
attendance of Vermonters in order that
throughout the state there may be
more general appreciation of the serious
ness of the problem and the effectiveness
of various methods of preventing the
spread of tuberculosis. Governor Ora
ham has urged the selectmen of every
town to send an official delegate Mrs. |
G. F. Davis, the president of the Vermont
Federation of Women's Clubs, has urged |
each of the clubs to send delegate.
The conference is one of six that will |
be held in as many points in the country
under the auspices of the National Asso-
citation for the Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis for the purpose of continuing through
the war the present hopeful decrease in
the prevalence of tuberculosis.
