British Freighter Arrives at At
lantic Port With Rumor
Picked Up by Wireless.
LESS THAN 100 MILES AWAY
Hear That Vessel Was Being
Attacked by Submarine
Shell Fire.
gv United Press

By United Press
An Atlantic Port, Sept. IA Brit
ish freighter arrived today with re-
ports that 1t had picked up wireless
messages that O submarine had been
attacking O. merchant steamer, less
than 100 miles off Nantucket.
Officers on board the freighter de-
clared the message they intercepted
merely declared the sending vessel
was being attacked by submarine
shell fire." The international code
distress signal was flashed constantly.
Not all of the wireless was decipher-
able. Another British freighter arriv-
ing today said warning had been re-
ceived by wireless that submarine
was in the western Atlantic ocean.
There have been numerous reports of
visits of a German submarine on this
side of the Atlantic since the trip Of
the U-63 to Providence n year ago. All
the reports have turned out to be err
roneous.
Unconnrmed reports reaching an
other port may indicate still another
ship was attacked by German sub
marine some where of the New Eng
land coast. A steamer, name with
held, reported she intercepted a wire
less message from ship off the coast
which said German U-boat had been
sighted. She was, 49, iiAe- per
position whey tho call 7 suddenly
rgtopbc6. Repeated efforts to locate
her brought no reply.
Naval authorities here received a
report that ship reaching an ATTAIN
tic port reported wireless IS. o. g.
calls from vessel giving her position
as sixty-hve miles off Nantucket
Lightship. Although the name of the
ship is not known the word abbey"
was heard in the distress calls. The
IS. o. s." calls were heard early yes
terday morning.

Cincinnati Man Tells How to Shrivel
Up Corns or CaIIouses So They
Lift OFF With Fingers.

Ouch This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town If
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice Of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that few drops
of drug called Freezone when applied
to tender, aching corn or hardened
callous stops soreness at once, and soon
the corn or callous dries up and lifts
right off without pain.
He says Freezone dries Immediately
and never infiames or even irritates
the surrounding skin. A small bottle of
Freezone will cost very little at any
drug store, but will positively remove
every hard or soft corn or callous from
ones feet Millions of American wo-
men will welcome this announcement
since the Inauguration Of the high
heels. II your druggist doesn't have
Freezone tell him to order small bot
tie for you. (adU
