nouncement of decreased submarine
inroads upon shipping for the past
two weeks, and Indicated that this
was due largely to improved anti
submarine methods and the presence
of American destroyers, in co-operA

Reports from Admiral Sims indt'
cate there has been a marked I'M
proven ent in the anti-submartne sys-
tens. Submarines are being both
captured and destroyed. The Ameri-

more capably, keeping ravages OF the

extent.
With the navy department ap2ar-
emily in possession of valuable anti
submarine idea, 1t is anticipated here

be blasted.
Naval Battle.
PARIS, May 24.--The French de-
stroyer Boutefeu was mined and sunk
in a naval engagement between Aus
trian and French, British and Italian
naval craft, according to an official

According to the version made pub
lie here, Austrian vessels attacked
the French, British and Italian squad
ron. An enemy cruiser was observed
to be in flames during the action.
THE destroyer Boutefeu was OF
7O3 tons displacement and measured
252 feet in length by 25 feet beam.
She was rated at 81 knots speed and
was of the 1910 type of oil burning
ships carrying two 4-inch and four
9-pounder guns and four torpedo tubes.
The Boutefeu's complement was CIV
