CONVOYS REDUCING.
SUBMARINE DAMAGE
American Naval Forces Pro-
tect Merchantmen.

Washington, Aug. sO.---American
naval forces are conveying merchant
craft across the, Atlantic. it was dis
closed officially today, at the navy de-
partment and examination of the rec
ords show that the loss. of conveyed
ships by submarines has averaged less
than one-half Of one per cent.
Details of the convoy system are
withheld. 1t was stated. however, that
American war vessels are regularly
escorting fleets of allied merchantmen
across, the protection being supple
mented, when the danger zone is
reached, by destroyers and other pa
troll craft.
~1 nlitdekr Effective System.
American naval officials believe that
an effective system for checking the
submarine menace is being built up
gradually. but certainly. Many de-
vices and many methods enter into the
task. Among other things, depth
bombs are proving effective. Official
reports indicate that American de-
stroyers have encountered several L.
boats and accounted for them with
these weapons. No announcement of
such incidents will be made. however,
unless absolute proof of the fact is
available.
Will Ahate Menace.
No T-boat has been captured by the
Americans. 1t is the best Judgment
of high officials. however, that several
have been sunk by Admiral Sims de-
stroyers and they are confident to-
day. more confident than ever before.
that the submarine menace. will be
substantially abated as the number of
destroyers and other craft available fol
the work is increased
The decision of the navy department
to spend $350,0Oo.OO0 on new destroyers
and destroyer building facilities, APP
proved by President Wilson yesterday,
is based on the effectiveness of the
swift fighting machines as proved by
Admiral Sims forces.
An Effective Weapon.
American experts have developed a
depth bomb for use against submarines
that Is deadly at considerable range
The. bomb. containing high explosives,
is dropped from a destroyer over a
spot where the presence of a subma :
rine Is indicated. 1t is timed to ex-
plode ut n certain depth. If the ex-
plosion occurs below the U-boat and
within a reasonable distance. the hui
OF the underwater craft is crushed.

AUTO DRIVER GIVEN
 REPRIMAND; HE RAN
 OVER THE FIRE HOSE

One of the auto drivers of th5 city was arrested yesterdat after noon for running over a fire hose after he had been told not to do so by fireman, This morning he was discharged after receiving I severe reprimand from the city magistrate
 It is the intention in the future to arrest any and all auto drivers or teamsters who run over fire hose while it is stretched in the street. The hose costs considerable money and an auto or wagon running over it is very apt to cut hole.
 "The arrest yesterday will serve as a warning to all drivers. In the flu ture we will not stand for them running over the hose. ThCre is an ordinance against such a practice and it must be enforced All offend CTS will be prosecuted and in the future will not escape with repri mand," said one of the firemen this morning.

ORE SHIPMENTS
 FROM THE NORTH
 SUDDENLY STOP
Bridge Washed Out Near Chitna; Reserve Ore Is Cleaned Up by the
 Cargo Carriers.
REPAIRS BEING MADE

Copper ore from the Kennecott mine will start moving south again within the next few days as the bridge across the Copper and Kot- sina Rivers, which was washed out by high water and an ice jam, will be repaired shortly. The last sev- eral boats arriving from the West ward have been carrying light loads of the ore, from the reserve stock stored in Cordova.
 The steamer Alaska carried the last of the reserve stock south, and the Victoria, which had been making special trip to canneries in the Boring Sea section, and which call ed in at Cordova southbound for a cargo of ore, was forced to go south in ballast
 The bridge which was carried away and stopped the shipment of ore from the mine to Cordoya was d long one across the Copper and Kotsina rivers and was near the town of Chitina The ice damned against the bridge, following the spring thaw and with the pressure of the rising waters behind it, final ly forced a span of the bridge to give way. This broke the ice jam, and at the same time all communi- cation by train between the two terminus of the Copper River & Northwestern Railroad. Repairs to the bridge are being rushed at top speed and it is expected that the next boats arriving from the West ward will have their usual ship ments of ore consigned to the Ia coma shelter.
