fwhere the attacks had been made on
!, the first group.
Fired at Object
In Water.
al. The voyage Of the third
group was uneventful.
"12. In the forenoon Of June 2S,
when in latitude - N, longitude
- w, the X opened fire on an OBJ
ject about 800 yards distant which
was thought was submarine. The
commander Of the group, however,
did not concur in this opinion, bu.
the reports subsequently received
from the commanding officer of the
X and Lieutenant v are too circum-
stantial to permit the incident from
being ignored. The commanding Off
Ger states:
The only unusual inciden of the
trip worth mentioning was on the
2sth day Of June, about 1905 a. m.
The lookouts reported something
right ahead of the X U had the
bridge at the time). When I looked
saw what appeared to be very
small object on the waters surface,
about foot or two high, which left
a small wake. On looking closer
and with the aid Of benoculars
could make out a shape under the
water about $50 to 300 yards ahead
and which was too large to be
black fish, lying in a position about
Is degrees diagonally across the KS
course.
"I ordered the post gun to open
fire on the spot in the water and
sounded warning siren for convoy;
when judging that ship had arrived
about the spot first seen I ordered
right rudder in order to leave the
submarine astern.
| "a minute or two later the port
after guns crew reported sighting
submarine on port quarter and open
cd fire at the same time. The look
outs from the top also reported see
ling the submarine under the waters
surface and about where the shots
were landing.
The ship kept zig-zagging and
firing from after guns every time
something was sighted.
Saw Submarine Fire
Two Torpedoes.
Lieutenant ", U. s. N, was In
personal charge of the firing and re-
ports that he saw. with all the gun
crews and lookouts aft, the subma-
rine fire two torpedoes toward the
direction of the convoy, which
sheered off from base course to
right when alarm was sounded.
"'All the officers and men aft had
observed the torpedoes travelling
through the water and cheered loud
ly when they saw torpedo miss n
transport. They are not certain,
though. which one 1t was, as the ships
were not in line then and more or
less scattered.
The gunnery officer and all the
men who were aft at the firing are
certain that they saw the submarine
and the torpedoes fired by same.
"a separate report Of Lieutenant
". U. s. NJ. the gunnery officer is
herewith appended.
The X kept zig-zagging until II
was considered that danger was past.
and in due time Joined the escorts
and convoy formed column astern.
Report by signal was made to
the group commander Of sighting the
submarines and torpedoes.'

sively with recommendation as to

various manufacturing plants in
northern Utah. The machines are
said to fly low in the neighborhood
of factories. w. L. Halst, a promi-
nent business man OF Brigham City,
said yesterday that while out driv-
ing Wednesday evening with his fam
lily he saw flying machine at a high
altitude making its way in a western
direction. He watched 1t until 1t dis
appeared below the western horizon.
Two Brigham City boys report seeing
two machines flying low over the ce.
ment plant near that city, and cast
ing powerful searchlight down into

Cache county.
Group Of Aeroplanes
Seen Uear Provo.
Farmers north of Provo and to-
ward Provo canyon claim to have
seen number of airplanes in n
group passing to the north at 10
a. m. Wednesday. They say they
heard the whir of the machines,
which were at a high altitude and
somewhat indistinct. They believe
the planes are the same that passed
over Grand county recently.
In support Of the idea that the
German enemy is operating aircraft
from a southern base, possibly In
Mexico, q farmers who have been
reused by airplane reports say that
in the La Sal range of mountains,
the watershed Of the Green river,
there are many mesas and tablelands
inaccessible save by few almost i'm
passable trails that would furnish a
splendid base from which to send out
filters. These mountains are covered
with timber, and are well provided
with water. Deer are plentiful. The
mesas are easy to locate and would
be asy to land on with an airplane.
1t is said.
