U-B0AT TOLL FALLS OFF
Figures May Conceal Dramatic
Story of Counter Measures.


Back of the mathematical Lloyd's
reports on ship destruction in Ger
msny's U-boat campaign probably
lies a dramatic story of British coun-
ter-measures, inasmuch as the ton
mage reported wrecked now seems
dwindling.
While the falling of in tonnage the
past two days may be. only tempor-
ary,. some authorities here see in it
he possibility that Germany's era of
rrightfuIness in the barred area is to
he short lived.
AS the story went in British circles
today, England prepared for Ger
many's submarine drive sometime in
advance. She set out new patrols,
and she took steps to see that liners
were armed. And armed ships are
the fear Of the shell-like undersea
boats.
Perhaps, it is suggested, England
already has established guarded lanes
Of gray cruisers within the barred
area, and, moreover. it is believed
Germany already has lost several OF
her submarines-thougho on this point
the British admiralty never will tell
any tales.
Some of Germany's undersea craft
have undoubtedly put back to base
before now, having used their meager
supply of ammunition. This may ac-
count for the apparent decrease in
activity. though there is still another
possibility-that some of Germany s
efforts are being hidden both by the
British admiralty and Lloyds.

TT. MYER APALACE
AFTER pup TENTS
ArtiIIerymen Find Barracks Life
Great Improvement on
N Border Service.

Just like a palace. after being
down on the border"
: This description of their quarters
at Fort Myer was enthusiastically
given by a bronzed and husky ser
geant of Battery B. District national
guard, today.
Everything Is first class, so far a.
the arrangements are concerned" he
stated. "but the men have given up
all hope OF being mustered on. for
some time. and they are Iesignedly
taking up the routine OF sol isr's life
here again"
The usual rumors of being mustered
out within a short period are hourly
being discredited by adverse rumors
OF being held in the service Indefinite
ly. and the men have ceased to
prophesy.
The batterymen are kept hard At
work All yesterday the work OF un-
loading the battery's equipment from
the freight cars on the Rosslyn sid
ir9 went forward. and IL is thought
the last field piece will be unloaded
tHIs afternoon.
Leave 70 visit their relatives in the
city is being given to large squad
every night. They are permitted TO
leave Fort Myer at about O'Clock
In the evening and are required to re-
port next morning at s o'clock.
After the battery finishes the task
of unloading the equipment. there
will be plenty OF work found for them
to do around the fort. cleaning and
oiling their equipment and doing po-
lice duty around barracks and drill
fields.
The battery is forced to maintain
guard at all hours in the twenty -four.
and the squad on guard takes away
an appreciabIe number from the bat
tery's roster.
All the men are well except for
colds. The epidemic is thought to be
result OF the change of climate and
different conditions under which the
men are living. But as soon as the
batterymen become acclimated II has
been predicted there won't be any
more trouble on this account
