J. S. SHIP Is BLOWN UP
BY GERMAN SUBMARINE
Commander of u-Boat "Too Busy" to
Aid Victims-Refused to Tow
Small Boats

London, March 16-The American
steamer Algonquin has been destroyed
by a German submarine The crew
was saved, J. c. Stephens, the 'Ameri-
con consul at Plymouth, reported on
Wednesday.
The Algonquin was q freighter. IT
was sent down at six o'clock on the
morning of March - The submarine
refused assistance, the consulS report
said.
TWenty-seven men have been landed.
According TO later advices from
Plymouth, the German submarine
opened fire upon the Algonquin from a
distance of 1900 yards, firing about 20
shells.
These were not enough to sink the
steamer, so it was boarded by men
fro mthe submarine, who placed four
bombs and the Algonquin was then
blown up. The crew was given plenty
of time to leave the vessel
''It was just after daylight on Mon
day when we were attacked" said the
captain VI TIE AtSOuQulU, as QuOLeu ny
the Press association.
There was no warning. The sub
marine started fire at a range of three
miles. When about 20 live shells had
been fired at the Algonquin of which
four hit the ship forward, the crew de
cided to take to the boats, and pulled
away from the sinking vessel.
"Then the submarine approached.
sailed around the steamer several
times. Finding that the crew had
abandoned the ship, the submarine
came to the surface.
"SOme of the Germans boarded the
Algonquin and placed bombs aft
These were exploded. and within a
quarter of an hour the steamer disap-
peared.
81 appealed to the submarine COM
mander for a tow toward land, in view
of the roughness of the weather, but
the German gruffly replied: i am too
busy"
New York. March 16.-The AlgOn-
quin sailed from this port on Febru-
airy 20 with cargo valued at $780,
600. The ship itself was appraised at
$450.000. 1t was commanded by Capt

THAN SIXTY TOWNS
Bapaume and Peronne Among
Those Captured.
LOSS ADMITTED BY BERLIN
London Declares English Troops En-
tered Teuton Positions to Depth of
Ten Miles on Forty-Five-
Mile Front.

London, March 20-British troops,
continuing their rapid advance on the
heels of the retiring Germans, have oc-
cupied the important towns of Nesle
Chaulnes and Peronne, says, an Off
cial report issued here.
Along front of about As miles they
have entered the German position to
a depth of ten miles in places. In ad-
ditiOn the British have taken more
than so villages.
Berlin officially admitted the loss
of the above strongholds, as well as
Bapaume and Roye.
The Germans are still retreating
and fighting rear-guard engagements
While the allies are sweeping for
gigantic battle of warplanes is in
progress for air mastery on the
Franco-Belgian front. German avia-
tors have shot down % allied planes,
while the French claim the destruction
of nine hostile machines.
The capture of Peronne by British
troops is announced in a Reuter- dis
patch from British headquarters in
France.
The German retreat has been con-
tinuous throughout the night, and the
area covered by it has spread very
widely" says the dispatch. News has
just been received of our troops enter
ing Peronne.
Favored by fine weather and dry
ing ground, our columns everywhere
are pressing the retiring enemy.
1.-THE scenes of activity behind the
enemy lines eclipse even the busiest
days of the Somme offensive.

demonstrative enthusiasm"
[Peronne was one of the strongholds
of the Germans on the. FrancoBel-
gian front 1t is a town of about
1000 on the SOmme, and is of stra-
tegical Importance on account of it's
railway and high road connections.
1t was invested on three sides and the
railways of the Germans to the

ment of this town inevitable. From
Arras to the Disc where Berlin re-
ports the withdrawal is being made, is
about 80 miles. The capture of Ba-
paume and Roye was announced on
Saturday. Noyon is a town of about
5000, 81 miles northeast of Paris.l

Paris, March 20-The withdrawal Of
the Germans is still proceeding rapid
ly over a wide section of the French
front. The official announcement says
