BRITISH MYSTERY BOATS PLAY
DdP0RTANTPART IN DESTROYING
SUBMARINES OF ENEMY NATIONS

London, Aug. 6.-Revelations re-
garding the work of British mystery
ships which have played an important
part in anti-submarine warfare are
made by the naval correspondent of
the Times. They show how British
seamen have met German craft with
cunning.
Until this week the public has
known nothing about the mystery
ships, although several officers.
notably Captain Gordon Campbell,
have been decorated for their serv-
ices on these vessels. Details now
can be made public as the Germans
are becoming aware through bitter ex-
perience of the methods used against
them.
How b woman and baby account
ed for a U-boat is told by the corre-
spondent. The. submarine ordered a
vessel to surrender and fired a few
the ship, leaving son board woman
who ran up and down the deck with
a baby in her arms as If mad. The
U-boat came alongside the vessel and
the woman hurled the baby" into
the open hatch. The "baby" explod-
ed and blew out the bottom Of the
submarine. The woman was dec
Grated with the Victoria Cross.
The correspondent says that the
first mention Of mystery ship was
the case Of the Baralong. which on
August 10. 1915, sank U-boat after
the torpedoing Of the British, liner
Arabic. 1t will be remembered, he
says, that the German government
protested that there was nothing to
Indicate the Baralong's war-like. char
acter. The Baralong case was prob
ably not the first in which ruse was
used and since then the Disgusting of

armed vessels as innocent merchant
men for dealing with submarines has
attained considerable dimensions.
"Howls and moans," adds the cor
respondent, went up in Germany
about the treachery of British seamen,
but the German allegations curiously
ceased at the beginning Of 1916.
These allegations afforded a typical
example of German mentality for they
ignored the fact that in every. case the
U-boat was an actual or potential as
sailant and any ruse of war is con-
sidered legitimate by them except
when employed against Germany
It should not be forgotten, he con-
tinued, that the Germans designed
mystery ships for commerce destruc-
tion The British commanders showed
much ingenuity in devising plans for
trapping submarines
In addition to the woman and
baby" case the correspondent men
tions the story of retired admiral,
serving as captain, who placed a
craft When the U-boat ordered her to
surrender, the Germans were aston
ished to receive a broad side from the
haystack.
On another occasion a sea-worn
tramp steamer was crossing the North
sea when a submarine ordered the
crew to abandon ship. So sure was
the German Of his prey that the
bombs with which he intended to sink
the vessel were brought on deck
around the coming tower.
The commander of the tramp
steamer by careful maneuvering
brought the submarine within range
of his concealed armament so that it
required only a shell or two to ex-
plode the bombs and blow the U-boat
out Of the water

M'ADOO HINTS
AT SIZE OF
LIBERTY LOAN
No Definite Statement But
Intimated Amount Will be
About Five Billion.

st. Paul. Minn.. Aug. e.-secretary
Of the Treasury William G. McAdoo,
who has been resting at Glacier Park,
passed through St. Paul today on his
way to Washington and smilingly de-
MED reports that he has been on the
verge Of breakdown.
Nothing was wrong with me-. ex-
cept the strain on my throat and
vocal Chords" he said. IT have COM
pletely recovered. My voice is as
good as ever and that means the
American public probably must suf-
fer again when the next Liberty loan
campaign opens"
Secretary McAdoo said the amount
of the next loan would be announced
very soon." He said the estimated
amount-five or six billion-"would
be somewhere MAR it,
THE American people will need no
prodding when the next loan is ready
for subscription" said the secretary.
I'VE have been thrilled by the vigors
of our boys in France. We are be-
ginning to see visions Of the kaiser's
scalp now. We got them on the run,
over there. and we will run them
ragged"
Mrs. McAdoo accompanied her
husband. 1t was announced that she
was the first woman to cross the new
mountain pass in Glacier Park.
The party will probably arrive in
Washington during the week end.
II expect to be back at my desk
Monday" said Mr.. McAdoo.

FINISH WAR,
SAYS worst
War Expert Declares New
Government will be Form
ed to Fight Germany.

Washington, Aug. ct is Russia
that will finish the war. This is the
declaration made to DR.. Hans Worst
by an officer Of the Red Guard, ac-
cording to an article by DR.. Worst in
the Berlin Tageblatt
DR.. Worst is considered in Ger
many one Of the best judges of Rus
sian affairs and was sent to- Russia
by the Tageblatt to report conditions.
| Through conversations with Rus
slams Of all classes he came to the
conclusion that the Soviet govern
ment is thoroughly detested, but that
the hatred of the Russians for the
Germans is still greater. The Soviet
government, he declares. is the oil
garchy Of terror and unrestraint.
| A merchant declared to DR.. Worst:
''The war with Germany is not over.
A new government will be formed in
Russia. It will decree a general mo-
bilization and will drive the enemy
out Of all the territory that he oc-
cupies."
The officer Of the Red Guard who
declared that Russia will end the
war. added, according to DR.. Worst:
"a national rising so powerful and
so general will be accomplished that
victory will return to our flag"
