LAST SHOT GONE CAMPAVA' $ CREW
 TAKEN BY U-B0AT
l Republican A. P. Leased wlrel

AN ATLANTIC PORT, Aug. 22.- The Standard Oil tank steamer Cam pana, whose captain and five of her naval gunners, were taken prisoners by German submarine August 6, sur rendered to the U-boat but only be- cause she had not another shot to fire. The Campana's ammunition aft CT firing 180 shots became exhausted
 Passengers on board the French liner said they heard that the German U-boat shortly after the attack on the Campana was sunk by a French patrol boat
 This was the story told by J. H. Bruce third mate of the Campana, who with forty other members of the Campana's crew and eight gunners ar rived today on a French battleship. The battle began at a. m. and was waged for four hours at range of between 1900 and 7,500 yards.
 The U-boat fired 400 shots, only two of which hit the mark. The Campana, nevertheless was outranged by the two guns, one four-inch, the other two inch, with which the submarine was armed The U-boat also was fully as speedy as the American vessel.
 After the Campana hoisted the inter national signal Of surrender, her last shell gone. the submarine nevertheless continued to fire, Bruce said. and all hands took to the boats
 The U-boat commander first ap- preached the boat commanded by Bruce which had aboard the Cam pana's thirteen naval gunners and or dered it alongside. He then went to the life boat occupied by Captain AL bert Oliver of the Campana and took him prisoner
 Having room enough only for six ad- ditional men aboard his craft. the Ger mon skipper made only five of the gun
 ners prisoners. Bruce said. These in cluded the chife gunner and two petty officers. One of the gunners, whose name was Millor. was moulded because he could speak German. The subma- rine was the U-2. Bruce did not learn the commanders name. The German | told him, he said that he had first | fired torpedo at the Campana but had
 missed. the proiectile apparently pass | ing under the steamship.
 The Campana was sent to the bottom by bombs after her crew had been a l. | lowed to get their personal effects. Di- | (COntiDued on Page TWO)

WEATHER CANNOT. ' NDW HALT RECORD /, BREAKING CORN CROP
[sepublIcan A. ?. Leasee Wlrel

W. SHINGTON. Aug. 22-Most of the record breaking corn crop will be past the point where frost can damage it at the average date of the first kill ing frost in spite of the fact that the crop is from 10 to E, and in places even 20 days later than the average at this season Of the year in central and northern districts.
 Reports said the Kansas crop was re- covering from the effect of the drought to a surprising extent, due to recent rain.
 Warmer weather was decidedly Ia vorable for corn in all central and east ern sections during the last week, but lack of rainfall was felt to some eX- tent from Iowa eastward.
 Harvesting of winter wheat was nearly completed last week and yields continued good. Ploughing for next winter is progressing under very Ia ycrable conditions in the southwest.
 Spring wheat and other grain har- vesting is making satisfactory progress to the most northern sections of the country and yielding better in North Dakota and Montana than was ex- pected
