IN 4 PARTS

An American newspaperman, Floyd P. Gibbons, was the first cor respondent to experience the crash of war as the result of the submarine blockade. He was a passenger aboard the Cunard liner Laconia when it was torpedoed, resulting in the death of several Americans, and his story of the rush for the boats is intense and thrilling. It will be printed in four parts.

weather was a great factor That black rim of clouds looked ominous. There was a good promise of rain. February has reputation for nasty weather in the North Atlantic The wind was cold and seemed to be ris- ing. Our boat bobbed about like a cork on the swellS, which fortunately were not chOppy.
 How much rougher weather could the boat stand?"
 This question and the condition were debated pro and con.
 Had our rockets been seen ?" Did the first torpedo put the wire less out of business?" Did anybody hear our s. O. S. ?" Was there enough food and drinking water in the boat to last? 2"
 That brought us to an inventory of our small craft, and, after much diff fculty, we found a lamp, a can of powder flares, tin of ships biscuits, matches and spare oil.
 The lamp was lighted. Other lights were visible at small distances every time we mounted the crest of the swels. The boats remained quite close together at first. One boat came within sound, and I recognized the Harry Lauder-like voice of the second assistant purser, last heard on Wednesday at the ships concert. There was singing.
 'T Want to Marry 'Arry" and q Love to be a Sailor"
 Mrs. Boston was in that boat with her husband. She told me later that an attempt had been made to sing "Tipperary' and Rule Britannia" !" but the thought of that sinking dark hulk of destruction. that might have been part of the immediate darkness resulted in an abandonment of the ef- fort.
 Where's the officer in that boat" came cheery hail from nearby light.
 What the hell is it to you?" baw- led out our half-frozen negro, for no reason imaginable other than, pos sibly, the relief of his feelings.
 Brain him with a pin, somebody" |" yelled our profound oathsman, and ac- companied the order with a warmth of language that must have relieved the negro'S chill.

Prospects of Rescue

There was no assurance of an early pickup, even though the promise were from a German source. for the rest of the boats whose occupants-if they felt and spoke like those in my boat-were more than mildly anxious about our plight and the prospects of rescue. We made preparations for the siege with the clements. The

crashing together produced a general inclination toward further separation on the part of all the little units of survivors, with the result that soon the small craft stretched out for sev- eral miles, all of them endeavoing to keep their heads in the wind. And then we saw the first light, the first sign of help coming, the first searching glow of white brilliance, deep down on the somber sides of the black pot of night that hung over us. don't know what direction it came from-none of us knew north from south-there was nothing but water and sky. But the light--it just came from over there where we pointed.
 We nudged violently-sick boat mates and directed their gaze, and aroused them to an appreciation of the sight that gave us new life.
 It was over there-frst trembling culver of silver against the blackness; then, drawing closer, it defined itself as beckoning finger, although still too far away to see our feeble ef forts to attract
 We nevertheless wasted valuable flares, and the ships baker, self-or- dained custodian of biscuit tin, did the honors handsomely to the extent of a biscuit a piece to each of the twenty-three occupants in the boat.
 Pull starboard, sonnies," sang out old Captain Dear, his gray chin whiskers literally bristling with joy in the light of the round lantern which he held aloft.
 We pulled, pulled, Justify, forget ting the strain and pain of innards torn and racked from vain vomiting, oblivious of blistered hands. and yet half-f frozen feet.
 Come On"
 Then nodding of that finger of light--a happy, snapping, crap-shoot- ing finger that seemed to say, "Come on, you men," like a dice player woo ing the bones, led us to believe that our lights had been seen. This was the fact, for immediately the coming vessel flashed on its green and red side lights, and we saw it was headed for our position.
 We Aoated off it's stern for while, as it maneuvered for the best position in which it could take us on with the sea that was running higher and high CT, it seemed to me.

STREET CAR MEN
FRAME DEMANDS
Undecided Yet Whether to
Strike if They Are
Refused.
ASK FOR 35-CENT MAXIMUM

Whether or not Washington is to
last, year. if the railways refuse GER
tain demands to be made upon them
cannot be determined at this time.

deny that the men would ask for such
wage.

The president of the local said it was
a matter of courtesy and respect to the
railway officials that they first be In
formed of the demands of the men be-
fore they be given to the general pub
lie. Il expect that if anything is given
out on the subject it will have to come
from the street railway officials, he
said.
AS the members of the union entered
the theater, shortly after o'clock this
morning, their working cards were
carefully examined, and only those in
good standing were admitted. Every
precaution was taken to prevent leak
of the proceedings and members were
warned not to divulge what had taken
place in the meeting.
1t is reported. however. that aside from
the IS cents per hour maximum wage to
be urged the men want twenty minutes
for meals, thirty minutes to write re-
ports and that extra men when they re-
port for duty be paid from the time they
report instead of from the time they go
out on cars.

Papers Treat Rupture AS

Declare Campaign Cannot Be Prose
cuted Without Killing Americans.

Berlin, Feb. > (via London) -
The morning newspapers treat the
breach in diplomatic relations be-
tween the United States and Ger
many as q matter of great gravity,
but all the editorials are pitched In
a calm and moderate tore. The
avoidance of insulting language and
cutting epithets is especially notice
able. Most of the newspapers say
the news created no surprise, some
of them explaining that this step
was expected in view of President
Wilson's message of last April and
others that it was anticipated in
view of the Presidents continual
siding with the Entente since thu
war began
All the newspapers strongly r.
ject the imputation that Germany
has broken her promise made in her
note of May 4, laying stress upon
the fact that Germany's promise wae
expressly conditioned on President
Wilson's success in bringing Eng
land to an observance of the laws of
nations They generally assert thak
President Wilson persists in ignor-
ing Germanys justification for her
various notes.
