FIotiIIa Going Across to England Spotted by the Submarines Off the
 British Coast.
AN ATTACK ATTEMPTED
One Boat Tries To Engage Enemy Craft but the Latter Dives into
 the Ocean.

QUEENSTOWN, May r. One American destroyer of the hotilla which arrived here late yesterday, had sharp short brush with Ger man submarine and came out with flying honors. This was the state ment issued today by the British commander and received by him from the American destroyer (name deleted) the report being taken from the log of the war craft.
 As the fotilla was approaching the British coast early yesterday morning the signal was hoieted from the destroyer (name deleted), which was acting as the flagship of the fiotilla,. that two submarines had heen sighted
 Hardly had this signal been hoist ed when one destroyer located one of the enemy craft. The enemy sub- marine was about half mile away and the wake made by the peri scope, which only appeared about two feet above the water, indicated that the undersea boat was trav- cling at a fast speed towards the flotilla.
 Quickly changing his course Lieu tenant (name deleted) put on all speed, estimated at % knots, and started towards the hidden submar- inc. He adopted zigzag course making it impossible for him to be hit. The speed of the American destroyer seemed to increase until it fairly flew through the water. The periscope was seen to rise suddenly and before the gunners on the Amer ican destroyer could definitely To- cate the U-boat the latter disap- peared. One shot was fired down in- to the water where the submarine sunk but Its effect IS not known.
 The American fotilla formed into open sea formation and with all men on decks and at their guns a close lookout was kept for further signs of enemy boats but none were vis- ible.
 The fotilla arrived here late yes terday and threw the Britishers in- to amazement The officials here had no word of the coming of the craft which stood the trip across the ocean in splendid manner. Sev- eral minor machinery repairs will be made but the fleet could immed lately join in any work necessary without the repairs.
