British Tell How Foes Subs Were

London. Oct Another series OF
thrilling reports of recent naval actions
against German SUMMARIES illustrative
of the manner in which the U-boat

out by the admiralty. The figures are
official and authenticated. but no dates
are given.
The statement begins by reciting how
a torpedo gunboat sighted a periscope
500 yards away and turned ship so
that the periscope was travelling in the
opposite direction to that in which II
was first seen. When At distance OF
fifty yards the periscope disappeared.
and the gun boat, altering its course,
passed over the submarine.
The impact OF the collision was felt,
and when the captain estimated that
the submarine was under the afterpart
o. his ship explosive charges were
dropped astern. A seaplane reported
patches of oil on the surface, and a
mine sweeper found an obstruction on
the bottom at this point.
torpedo boat patrolling in the At
lantic found steamer torpedoed and
sinking. The survivors were rescued
and then the torpedo boat circled about
the locality for more than an hour.
Finally a white patch Of water was
seen dead ahead.
The torpedo boat dashed over the
spot, grazed the submarine. and
dropped three submarine bombs. Oil
and air bubbles reeking Of gasolene
came to the surafce and the mine
sweeper found another obstruction
here.
