CORRECTED REPORT SAYS ONE SUBMARINE SANK AND NOT SIX
 AS ORIGINALLY REPORTED.
BATTLE OFF FRENCH COAST
First Advices Said Six Undersea Craft Sent Down-DanieIs Discovers Mis- take After Country Electrified By
 Brilliant Achievement"

Washington.-A typographical error In a cablegram reporting a submarine attack on convoy of merchant ships off the coast of France on September led Secretary Daniels to announce 1 that six submarines probably had been sunk in the battle. when in reality the probabilities are only one was de stroyed.
 The mistake was not discovered un- til several hours after the country had been electrified by the report of a wholesale sinking of German U-boats.
 Secretary Daniels then issued the following statement:
 My attention has just been called to a serious error made in transcrib- ing the report of the attack made on the Westwego and other vessels. I gave the report to the press exactly as it was presented to me, stating l that two of the steamers attacked were sunk and probably all of the submarines were lost The cable gram, I now find, stated that one of the submarines was probably lost"
 The true version, it appears, is that the merchant ships, of which the l Westwego was one, were attacked by submarines in force off the coast of France on September 5, and that in 1 the fight of the merchant ships were lost and probably one of the subma- rines was sunk. The ships were con voyed, presumably, by American de- stroyers or other warships.
 Some statement probably will be made later to show where the typo. graphical error was made which led the Navy Department to announce the probable loss of six submarines.
 The uncorrected dispatch as given out was as follows:
 "The Navy Department has received report from Paris which states that the steamer Westwego reports on Sep tenfber 8 that while cruising with sev- eral other ships, was attacked by a massed force of six submarines off the coast of France on September 5. The result of this attack being that two of the steamers attacked were sunk and probably all of the submarines were lost"

NEW CRISIS MET BY
 PREMIER KFRENSKY
GENERAL KoRNiLoFF HAS DE. HANDED FOR HIMSELF DIG.
 TATORlAL POWERS.

New York.-The Russian govern. ment again is facing a crisis, but an. parently, with his usual 'blood-and iron" methods, Premier Kerensky has taken rigorous steps to combat it and to punish severely those of the oppo. sition elements who brought 1t about.
 General Korniloff, commander in chief of the army. backed by group of political agitators, has demanded for himself dictatorial powers by the surrender of the government into his hands. Kerensky refused to comply with the demand and has had incar- cerated in the PetropavloVsk fortress M. Lovoff, member of the Duma, who acted as Korniloff's mediary and who, under a severe examination, has had wrung from him the details of the plot to overthrow the government and bring about a return of the despotic regime. The names of the chief con spirators in the plot also have been ascertained and these men doubtless will receive punishment at the hands of the government.
 Korniloff has been deposed from the chief command of the army. while General Lokomsky has been pronoune- ed a traitor far refusing to take up Korniloff's duties.
 Martial law has been declared in Petrograd and it's environs and the government is taking measures to crush the revolt swiftly and decisive ly, probably by the creation of dl- rectory composed of a small number of men, tried and true friends Of the revolution.
 An indication that Kerensky and his followers have a good chance quickly to bring about order is contained m proclamation issued by the Soldiers and Workmen's Council urging that all the army and navy organizations obey the provisional government ana refuse to adhere to the conspiracy and asserting that Kornilof VIII pe punished for his treachery.

RAIDS ON HOSPITAL
 WERE DELIBERATE
REAL AMERICAN SPIRIT DISPLAY. ED DURING BoMBARDMENT-
 MEN REMAINED AT POSTS.

Scene of the Bombardment of Amer ican Hospitals in Franee-German "frightfulnesse and barbarity reached new height when Bosche aviators dropped bombs on this American hos pital camp, killing one officer, three privates and a patient and wounding 10 others
 The officers, men and nurses dis played real American split and hero ism under the enemy bombardment from the skies.
 With bombs bursting about them and men already wounded being torn by pieces of the exploding missiles, nurses hastened to their aid. Officers stood at their posts, men responded to every call upon them, and the first American units to be under enc my fire carried out the work they had to do with the utmost bravery.
 Following is the first American cas- ualty list of the war-the men of mercy, sent to their deaths by Ger man frightfulness.
 First Lieut. William T F1tzsim- mons, Kansas City; adiutant to the colonel comma.ding the Harvard unit.
 Private Leslie C. Wood, Streator, III.
 Private Rudolph Rubino, New York.
 Oscar c. Tugo, Boston.
 Wounded: Three first lieutenants, six private, one nurse.
 A visit to the hospital camp reveal ed that there were two raids. The first took the heaviest toll. But evil dence is conclusive that the raids were deliberate. Officers here declar- ed enemy aviators flew over the hos pitals more than once during daylight hours.
 With their markings and their loca- ton there could be no mistake of the identity of the buildings. The land marks are also such that they could be readily mapped by an aviator, and the location of the hospitals fixed. Nevertheless, bombs were hurled down on the defenseless buildings with their scores of equally defenseless attend ants and patients.

KERENsKY DEMAND REFUSED
Gen.Kenikine, Commander of Russian Armies On Southwestern Front Has Photographed Premier That He h.
 tends To Support KornEoff.

Petrograd.-Aecording to reports from the winter palace, where the government council was in session, a considerable force of supporters of Gen. Korniloff already have passed Luga on the way to Petrograd
 The government refuses to make a statement, but Foreign Minister Ter eschtenko informs the Associated Press that he believes the Kornfloff forces consists of only a few hundred men. The town and railroad station at Luga are in Korniloff's hands.
 Gen. Korniloff has ordered hls troops to detrain at the railroad sta ton at Ono and to march on and be- siege the city of Petrograd. Govern ment infantry still is moving out of the capital to oppose Korniloff's forces.
 Gen. Denikine. commander of the Russian armies on the southwestern front, has telegraphed to Premier Kerensky that he intends to support Gen. Korniloff
 In conversations with the Associat- ed Press, leaders of the Petrograd Council of Deputies declared that the provisional governments trump card was that the railroad employees were entirely on it's side and that obduracy by Gen. Korniloff would result in general strike, depriving Korniloff Of all supplies and of all means of in- posing his will on the rest of Russia.
 On Gen. Korniloff giving an eyasive answer Premier Kerensky categori- cally ordered him to come to Petro- grad To this Korniloff gave ali em. phatic refusal. He declared in gen. eral that he would not accept orders from the premier
 Premier Kenrensky then made to the cabinet a prolonged report on the situation, repeating his proposal to form a small directory. Here the pre- mier met his first opposition from the constitutional democratic ministers, who declared they were unable to ae- cept the dictatorship of the directory and would consent to remain in the cabinet only if all the material con- corning the revolt and all the plans for the liquidation thereof were sub mitted to the cabinet in full
 After heated debate the constitu- tional democratic ministers announc- ed that they would resign.
 Among the socialists at the Winter Palace the action of the constitutional democratic ministers was commented upon as natural, since a majority of their party emphatically supported Gen. Korniloff during the Moscow con- ference.
 When the cabinet members discuss ed, as an alternative to or compile ment to a directory, the formation of a permanent national assembly on the lines of the Moscow conference, the socialists insisted that representatives of the bourgeoise interests. which were assumed to be in sympathy with Gen. Korniloff, should be excluded from the national assembly. They al so demanded that members of the Du- ma and Cavaliers of St. George and other organizations suspected of coun- ter revolutionary leanings, be barred. The provisional government declared that if the assembly was conyoked it would consider itself responsible to that body.
