U.B0ATS ATTACKED j. S. SHIPS
ADMIRAL GLEAVES TELLS OF
MENACE TO EXPEDITION.
Official Report to Navy Department
Gives Details Of Fight in Which
One Submarine Was Sunk,

Washington, Aug. 2.-General Perish.
fng's expeditionary force passed
through real submarine attack.
Three distinct battles were fought.
Evidence shows that at least one of
the Garman submarines was sunk.
The truth was made public in the
plain, unvarnished tale of Rear Ad-
miral Albert Gleaves, contained in his
final and official report to the Navy
department.
Great warships evaded the sinuous
undersea craft with remarkable dex-
terity. Torpedo boats pursued the
submarines in the night Smaller
craft opened fire and the Yankee
troops cheered when a shot went any
where near the attacking boats and
cheered more Justify every time a tor.
pedo missed its mark. In exciting in.
cident, dangers overcome and in the
inspiring efficiency Of the Yankee ma.
Wy, the story surpasses the previous
meagre accounts.
Probably TraiIed All Day. ..
The first contingent of the Perish.
ing convoy ran into a mess of Ger.
man torpedoes fired from at least two
submarines. Admiral Gleaves believes
the submarines had been trailing the
ships all during the day of June o.,
when weather conditions we're ideal
for such pursuit.
Admiral Gleaves believes it was pre-
cipitated by an accident to our own
flagship.
The convoy vessels at the time were
zigzagging ahead of the transports,
scanning every inch of d dark sea
full Of phosphorescence and whipped
with whitecaps-conditio ideal for
torpedo attack. The helm of the flag.

so took sudden right angle sheer
to starboard. She sounded her whis-
tie to announce this sudden change
and Immediately shot across her
bows the telltale wake Of U-boat.
Lurking on the flank, the undersea
commander evidently thought he had
been discovered. He made his strike.
In an instant the fleet was in action.

The Wa AtA Glance

~ TITHOUT regard to the
WhighIy unfavorable
weather conditions pre-
vailing and in a surprisingly
short time after the successful
British thrust Of last week, the
British and French forces in Bel
GUM have launched another
heavy attack on the German
lines. The blow fell early today
in the region east and northeast
OF Ypres. where crown prince
Rupprechts lines had already
been dangerously bent back by
the previous British thrusts.
The British commander early
reported satisfactory progress on
all parts Of the front which he
attacked in conjunction with
our allies on our left"
French Also Attacking
shortly after the Paris state
ment indicated clearly that
French forces in Flanders We're
those alluded to by the British
commander.
This section Of the front re-
NAMED comparatively quiet while
the British to the south were re-
newing their drive last month.
Apparently the time Is now con-
sidered oppOrtune for bringing
the line TO the north more nearly
on the level with the advanced
British front. The French attack
today extended as far TO the north
as Houtholst forest. about five
miles. toward the coast from
Bixschoote.
British Well Situated For Drive
1t had been pointed out that
with the saliant parts Of the
Passchendaele-Gheluvelt ridge in

success last week, the British
were in an admirable position TO
push further east toward the
Manufacturers railway line. This
invaluable line of communication
for the Germans between their
bases in southwestern Belgium
and northern France and their
Belgian coast points were al
ready commanded by the British
guns.
The renewed push is in the di-
rectiOn OF this line which be-
fore this mornings attack be-
gan, was about five and one-half
