Commander of Spanish Vessel, Under
 Oath Declares German Submarine
 Made Unwarned Attack on His Ship.
 Madrid. April 2S, via Paris.-Pre- mier Prieto has announced that he has received official confirmation of an attack by a German submarine on the Spanish seamer Triana and has addressed a strong protest to Ger many.
 Details of the incident show that the submarine commander slowed down and offered excuses, insisting that he only fired after the steamer had ignored blank shot. The captain of the Triana, in a sworn statement be- fore the Cadiz port authorities. af- firms that neither he nor his crew heard any shot until the ship was struck by a shell. The Triana was going at reduced speed at the time, he says, and the Spanish colors were flying conspicuously.
