roar from the hold and then the boilers
blew up The old ship quivered and
keeled and then went down by the

there was a rush of fire from the stack

U-Boat Larger Than Texel
Chief Engineer Peterson hesitated
about making a guess as to the dimen-
sions of the submersible.
"All / know about that" he said, 'is
that the Texel was 264 feet long and
] should say the U-boat was longer
than that"
The TeXel had carried a cargo of
coal to the Caribbean and was return
ing from Ponce with $500 tons of su-
gar. Her net tonnage was $500 tons
and every available bit of space was
filled with cargo. Peterson said the
cargo was believed to be worth $780,

Captain Lowry's Story
Captain X. B. Lowry, of Brooklyn,
before he was silenced by a young
naval officer in charge of a patrol
ship. who said he was acting on orders
from Rear Admiral Helm, of the
Fourth Naval District. Philadelphia
said:
1--WE were about sixty miles off New
York harbor Sunday afternoon. The
sea was calm and there was no sign
of any hostile submarines.
Suddenly without moments
warning, a U-boat loomed up Off
the bow. It fired three rounds of
shrapnel. The hail Of exploding shells
swept the deck like rain.
"The U-boat was but fifty feet away.
so close that it almost crashed into
the lifeboats that were later lowered.
When the shrapnel struck. us l
stopped.
THE skipper Of the U-boat. who
came aboard speaking clear English,
cried:
LET me see your papers!'
II turned the ships papers over to
him.
He looked at them for a moment,
then turning curtly on his heel said:
I'VE will give you time to get off,
then we shall sink your vessel
There was no attempt to get the
men," Captain Lowry declared.
1--WE manned two boats. and every.
body was saved. When we were leav-
ing, the submarine nearly crashed

Lowry Girard College Graduate
Captain Lowry is a graduate of
Girard College in the class of 1911. His
wife is at the Hotel Walton in Phla-
delpha awaiting his release here. Mem
bers of the crew have telegraphed to
the shipping board at Washington for
orders.
1t was learned this afternoon that
four boats had been shot under Cap
tain Lowry by submarines. Some of the
crew were struck as many as five times.

man sea raiders as having treated
their victims with reasonable con-
sideration, and even, as some of the
men of the Edward H. Cole ex-
pressed it, with politeness. The men
of that schooner received ten min
utes to abandon their craft and
managed to do it in one-half that
time. The schooner then was blown
up by bombs placed aboard by Ger
mans from the submarine cruiser.
The men of the Cole described the
raiders which overhauled their ves-
sci, one on either side, as the most
formidable submarines they ever
had seen. They carried large guns
fore and aft and smaller gun
amidships, the rescued men said,
and were about 250 feet in length.
One u. S. Vessel Shows Fight
That at least ore of the larger
American vessels accosted by the
underseas pirates showed fight is in
dicated by the reports brought ashore
by the crew of the Edward H. Cole.
They said they heard firing in the
distance and believed the submarine
was the victor in the combat, and
that later the same U-boat destroyed
big steamship after several hours
of sustained firing in the same
vicinity.
In all the attacks reported there
is no evidence of a torpedo having
been used. Vessels reported sunk
were disposed OF eitker by shell fire
after they had been abandoned by
their passengers and crews. or else
by bombs placed in the holds by the
Germans. 1t is supposed the enemy
is conserving his available stock of
torpedoes in the hope of expending
them later upon larger game, pref
erably troop transports.
