U.BOAT SINKINGS

London Advises Caution After
Submarines Do Heavy Damage

London, Nov. 22.-Seventeen Brit
ish merchantmen were sunk by mines
| or submarines last week, according to
the weekly statement issued by the
Admiralty. OF these ten were ves-
sells of 1000 tons or over and seven
Of less than 1900 tons.
Last weeks record of British mer-
chantmen SUNK greatly exceeds that
of the previous week, when only one
vessel Of 1900 tons Or over and five
craft of less tonnage were sent to
the bottom. In fact, 1t represents in
the aggregate the greatest number Of
vessels destroyed since the week of
X Oct. %, when eighteen were lost.
Since then there has been a gradual
falling off in shipping losses until the
minimum since Germany's intensified
submarine campaign began was
reached in the week Of Nov. II with a
total Of six
So far as the losses of large ves-
selE are concerned, however, the pres
ent admiralty report apparently bears
out the optimistic statement made re-
Gently by Premier Lloyd George that
hc had no further fear Of submarines,
and of the first lord of the admiralty
that enemy submarines were being
sunk to an increasing extent, for the
slnkings in the 1,600-and-over cate
sorry last week were the lowest since
March, except for the weeks Of Sept.
10, Nov. 4, and Nov. II. when in the
two former weeks the total in each
instance was eight and in the latter
one.
Premier Lloyd George in his ad-
dress to the house of commons early
In the present week said that five
submarines were destroyed last Sat-
urday, but he gave no further infor-
nation on the subject. Sir Eric
Gedes, the new first lord of the ad-
miralty, in his maiden speech before
parliament, asserted that between 40
and SO per cent of German subma-
rines operating in the North Sea and
the Arctic and Atlantic oceans since
the beginning of the war had been
sunk. He added that enemy subma-
r,nes were being sunk to an increas-
ing extent, but that the Germans were
building them faster than they prev
icusly had done.

on account Of shell fire and partly

The occupation of Marcoing and

British, as 1t gave them much needed
crossings for the Escault river and
canal, which formed a natural barrier
to the advance from this direction.

the mounted men went into action
at 1880 o'clock yesterday morning,
after the tanks had opened the way
