Stories Of American Ship Captains Leads to Belief That Submarines Have Lines of Communication
 Ashore and Frequently Land Spies

Washington, Aug. 9.--InfOrmation furnished by officers of vessels attack ed by German. submarines along the American coast has strengthened the belief held by several experienced of- 1lclals heer tha tthe enemy raiders have had communication with persons on sore and may even have landed members of their crews in an effort to obtain reliable information.
 The navy department, officially, re- fused tonight to endorse this belief though admitting the possibility.
 Saw Hun Officer in Saloon.
 Claim that he met an officer from the submarine that sunk the schooner 0. B. Jennings, in a New York saloon is made by first officer of that vessel, according to a story reaching the de- partment
 The recognition between the Amer ican and German is said to have been instanteous, the latter makine his es- came when the American appealed to a brother officer to accompany him for confirmation of his belief.
 Other instances have been heard not so well substatiated, of the dis covery that German submarines haze teen in close touch with the shore.
 Saw N. Y. Paper in CB.Oat.
 One story along this line was that the captain of coastWise vessel be- ing ordered to the submarine with his papers, was astounded to see on the desk of the German commander copies of New York dailies of the same date.
 Communications between the raid- CTS and tne mainland is possible at scores of places along the Atlantic shore naval officers believe, the ir- regularity of the American coasts at certain points making such possible.

RUSS0-GERMANS THREATEN ID
 INVADE CHINA Chinese Troops Are Rushed to Siberian Border to
 Oppose Them. MORE AMERICANS
 AT VLADIVOSTOK Two United States Transports Have Arrived and a Third Is Ex.
 ptctpd soon From
 Manila.

Washington, Aug. l9--The Chin ese government has sent large force of troops tc the Siberian border ito prevent a threatened invasion of Chinese territory by German and Hungarion prisoners of war who joined with the Red Guard and other elements of the Bolsheviki against the Czechc- c-Slavoks in trans Baikal region.
 The sending of the Chinese force was taken to mean that every means of extending relief to the Czecho-Slo- walks was being taken by the allies powers.
 The active participation of the Chinese army on the Siberian border may have an important bearing on developments there within q few days according to officials here.
 That the Japanese troops from Man churian will be the first to render General Dederichs, the Czecho-Slovak leader and his small band of fighters practical aid seems probable from late news from that portion of the world.
 But they will be promptly reinforc- ed by troops of the entente nations provided it is found that the line of communication to Vladivostok can be maintained by the Manchurian railr- oad or otherwise.
 American Troops Arrive. Vladivostok, Friday, Aug. 16.-A Isecond transport carrying American troops arrived at Vladivostok today.
 The transport bearing the first con- tingent of American soldiers entered the harbor yesterday afternoon after a voyage of seven and half days from Manila.
 A third troop ship is expected to arrive this evening.
 Reign of Terror in Petrograd,
 Washington, Aug. 19.-Petrograd's reign of terror is reported raging un- checking in an official dispatch today from Stockholm. It is estimated that 3O,O00 arrests have been made since the beginning of August among arr my officers and middle class citizens. The Bolsheviki chiefs are said to be on board the warship Aurora in the roadstead of Kronstadt, prepared to sail for Germany in case of a success full uprising against them.
 A report dated August 16 said the Bolsheviki authorities had agreed to permit the consuls to depart and that the military missions of Great Brit ain and France were preparing to leave Moscow by way of Astrakan and Persia.
 When these dispatches were sent ef- forts still were being made to obtain the release of British and French citizens held at hostages by the Bol- sheviki. Some were released several days ago but nearly a hundred were held.
 The Swedish consul-general said negotiations would be greatly facili- tated if the allies would promise.

mented, both by shore patrol and oth- CT methods which cannot be destroy ed.
 It can lbe stated however, that no official report has been made giving definite evidence of an enemy boat having landed.
 From authortitive sources, it was learned today that there is reason to believe that thre German submarines have been operating on the American coasts, at three separate points,
 One Believed Sunk.
 Two of these have recently ceased operating," either because their stores have become exhausted, or as re- suit of damage received in contact with the patrol fleets.
 1t is known that the activities of one boat ceased immediately after a destroyer reported having discharged depth bombs near the spot wher the I-Doat submerged.
 One of the three submarines, it is considered certain, was specially equipped for duty as a cable cutter.
 Gut Atlantic Cables.
 This is held to explain the sud den parting recently of two Atlantic cables. A naval repair ship escorted by fighting craft, since has picked Up and spliced both cables
 The German admiralty now has in commission between 160 and 1S0 sub marines, while the total number de- stroyed ty the allies has passed the 200 mark, according tothe most re- liable information available here.
 If correct. these figures would in dicate that new German construction has barely held it's own over the per iod of four years. as at the beginning of the war the Germans are known to have had about 150 submarines.
 The toll in the last six months how ever has been many times that at tained in any previous period.
