U-BOAT DEFEATED.
Tidewater May Even Have Sunk
Craft; Fine Gunnery.

Washington, May 9.-A fight be-
tween the American steamer Tidewater
and a German submarine On March
IL, in which the submarine was de-
feated and perhaps sunk, was report
ed Yesterday by the Navy Depart
mert. The Navy Departments an
nouncement said:
"The commander of the armed
guard on the steamship Tidewater
reports to the Navy Department that
on March II, about 11:3O p. M,
submarine was sighted. off the STAR
board bow, heading toward the YES
sci, about $50 yards off. AS the ship
turned it missed the submarine by not
more than 20 feet. The U-boat was
then submerging. The ships guns
were brought to bear and the first
shot hit some distance ahead of her
wake.
"The pointer said the commander,
"fred the second shot and had what
the captain, the chief engineer and
myself and other members of the crew
called clean hit, and was satisfied
that it was effective. The third shot
was fired by the boatswain's mate in
charge Of the after guns crew, hav-
ing her spotted and firing in the posi-
ton she last submerged in. We re-
aumed our course and commenced zig
tagging, standing by for an attack,
but the submarine did not appear
again. We made all preparations for
an attack at daybreak, but there were
no signs of submarine"

ANXIOUS FOR THEIR FUTURE

..
Small Group of Thinking Germans
Protest Against Acts OF Military
Clique.
Berne, Switzerland, May 8.-There's
a small, slowly growing group OF
men in Germany who, thinking OF the
future, are trying to "clean up the
Hun and make Germany presentable
before the world.
They're trying to pound it home that
Germany's world standing must be
considerable, indeed, it is not al
ready too late.
Perhaps the most interesting docu-
ment is a statement which recently
was given publicity here, signed by.
DR.. Wilhelm Muhlon, former director
of the Krupp works. 1t follows:
"since the first days of 1917 have
abandoned all hope as regards the
present directors Of Germany.
'Our offer of peace without indica-
ton of our war aims, the accentuation
of the submarine war, the. deportatlons
of Belgians, the systematic destruc-
ton in France and the torpedoing Of
English hospital ships have so degrad-
I'd the governors of the German en-
pire that I am profoundly convinced
that they are disqualified forever for
the elaboration and conclusion of a
sincere and just agreement.
"The German people will not be
able to repair the grievous crimes
committed against its own present and
future, and against that Of Europe
and the whole human race until 1t is
represented by different men with a
different mentality. To tell the truth,
it is mere justice that its reputation
throughout the whole world is as bad
as it is.
"The triumph of its methods would
constitute a defeat for the ideas and
the supreme hopes of mankind.
GAS a man and as German who
desires nothing but the welfare Of the
deceived and tortured German people,
I turn away definitely from the pres
ent representatives of the German
regime. And I have only one wish
that all independent men may do the
same, and that many Germans may
understand and act"

DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS
COMING TO IRIS 26TH

In "A Modern Musketeer," to be
shown at the Iris theatre on June
26th, Douglas Fairbanks holds up the
mirror of the past, and compares the
chivalry of olden times to the present
day The photoplay is released by
Aircraft, and is in line with Fair
banks recent productions with scenes
of ra-sensationalism and humor.
Fairbanks interprets the role of
Ned Thacker, of Kansas, who inherited
the spirit of D'Artagnan through pre-
natal Influence, his mother having
been an ardent reader of Dumas The
self-reliance of the modern woman as
compared with her sister in past gen
erations is strikingly shown, for in
many cases the chivalry of the mod
ern D'Artagnan is mistaken, and his
gallant attempts to assist ladies in
distress lead to rebukes from the in
dependent maidens who are on the
alert to squelch ,flirtatious pests.
However, Ned finally meets his fate
in the person of Majorie Daw, who
plays the part of Dorothy Morane, a
tourist, and in scenes of superhero
ism, done in dashing Fairbanks style,
he saves the girl from a horrible fate
and wins bride.
