London, July About 20 enemy
aeroplanes bombarded London today,
according to an official statement by
the war office.
Damage was done in the heart of
London by the raid, which was one
Of the greatest, if not the greatest,
attempted by the Germans.
Late today it was impossible to say
what the loss OF life was. For about
quarter of an hour raiders dropped
a steady rain of bombs. The raid
occurred about $3.50 O'clock. Thous-
ands of persons crowded the streets,
many of them women and children.
The police and soldiers had difficulty
in holding back the people.
Many were seen at windows. Anti
aircraft guns throughout the city and
British aeroplanes engaged the hos.
tile craft ap@d aGp@sr for some corm4'e!,.t time the
sound of exnloding bombs It and the
vicious replyu0ff guns was deafehing.
Straight over the city flew the squad
ron of raiders, pursued by bursting
shrapnel.
The sun was shining brightly, but
the sky was overcast with haze,
such as is so favorable to raiders
Notwithstanding the haze, the Ger
mans were visible to the people in
the streets.
Appear Suddenly.
They appeared suddenly and few
persons realized that raid was in
progress until the sound of bombs
was heard. They were travelling at
tremendous speed They appeared to
be at lower altitude than previous
ly, when they exacted a heavy toll
of life in London. .l>c,rA,' q
The following account was given
out: Atsou,! .'r ~. ,.r,"1 ,
Lord French reports that about
$50 o'clock = this morning, hostile
aircraft in considerable number, prob
ably in two parties, appeared over
the Isle of Thanet and the east coast
of Essex. After dropping some bombs
in Thanet the raiders proceeded in
the direction of London. Moving
roughly parallel to the notrh Dank
of the Thames, they approached Lon
don from the northeast, then chang
ing their course, they proceeded
north and west and crossed London
from the northwest to the southeast.
combs were dropped in the metropol-
itan area. The number of raiding
aerOplanes is uncertain, but probably
about 20. They we're attacked by ar
tillery and by large numbers of our
own aeroplanes, but reports as to the
results of the engagements and as to
the damage and casualties nave not
yet been received
The most recent big air raid on
London occurred June 13. At that
time, the German squadron consisted
of about Is machines, and the down
town section of London was the chief
objective Many bombs fell in the
East End, where buildings were de-
stroyed and others badly damaged.
The casualties officially announced
were 151 killed and 431 persons in
jured No damage of a military or
naval nature was done. The Germans
remained at great height and flew
swiftly. The British fighters had diff
fculty in pursuit, for the loss of but
one machine was recorded.

half an hour after the submarine sub
merged. This man finally became
exhausted and sank. I heard numer-
Gus other cries for help from our men,
but could not see them.
Later I heard whirring noise,
something like an airplane, and
smelled the odor of gasoline, which
thought was the submarine returning
toward the Belgian Prince to pick up
her four men. When day broke there
were lots of dead bodies Of my old
shipmates floating around me. Then,
about 5 o'clock, aa near as L can
Judge, I made out the Belgian Prince
and four men coming over her side.
They had been lowering some stuff
off the Belgian Prince into the boat
alongside.
IT cried out, Help, help but they
paid no attention to me. At this time
the submarine came to the surface
about fifty yards from the Belgian
Prince, and the four men from the
Belgian Prince approached the sub
marine in their boat, and they holsted
some stuff out of the rowboat and put
it on board the submarine, and about
ten minutes afterward she submerged,
leaving one man in the lifeboat, the
other three having gone on board the
submersible.
LAS the submarine submerged
heard a. great explosion, and the Bel
gian Prince broke in two and sank.
I saw a vessel approaching from
far distance, and she gradually APP
preached me. She came within a
hundred yards of me, close to where
the Belgian Prince had sunk. She
passed me, proceeded some little dis
tance turned around and came back
and picked me up, at which time l
was just commencing to lose con-
seriousness. AS soon as revived I
made a full statement Of the sinking
Of the Belgian Prince, and the drown
| ing of her crew, to the captain of the
| boat that picked me up. which was a
| British patrol boat.
1T appears that the man whom I
mentioned as having been left in the
rowboat when the submarine sub
merged, was picked up by the British
| patrol boat after I became uncon-
F; scious; also the chief engineer of the
+ Belgian Prince, who had gotten hold
! of a log after the submarine first sub
! merged, and thus had saved his life,
was picked up. We were taken by
the British patrol boat to London
derry, Ireland. After we landed at
| Londonderry I was in a hospital for
| eight days, recovering from my ex-
| perience in the water.
| while I was in the hospital they
| kept the man who was picked up out
! of the lifeboat and who was a Rus
| sian and a member of the Belgian
Princes crew in confineme nt in Lon
| donderry until 1 recovered sufficiently
| to give a statement to the British Off
| Gals, the Russian having told a some
| what different story, which they could
; not believe until I corroborated it in
most Of it's particulans., I believe the
! reason they could Scarcely believe
from the Russian that the Germans
| would do such thing"

Four Thousand New Members.

Chairman Macfarland said that as yet
subscribed to the war service fund, but
that there is an evident earnest desire
on the part of everybody to do some
thing for the country and for humanity in
The war. This was shown by the fact
that incidentally more than four thousand
new members have joined the District
of Columbia Chapter since April 3, al
though no campaign is being made for
memberships. The war service fund does
not benefit by the membership dues.
Arrangements are being perfected for
the celebration OF a mothers week of Civ
ing TO the war service fund. beginning
next Sunday. Mothers day, and lasting
until Saturday night. under the direction
Of the finance committee. by a special
