1t Is reported that pr~opagandists
among the men melted sailors about to
leave on submarine cruises to attack
their officers and surrender their ships
or seek an opportunity to sink them
and get themselves interned in neu-

are said to have disappeared.
TWenty-three Of the ~ringleaders Of
the revolt are reported to have been
arrested and sentenced to death. Many
others have been arrested at Kiel and
elsewhere, 1t is added.
The correspondent who sends the re-
ports admits that the stories are con.

The men behind the movement, the
accounts state, are revolutionary sail

conducting propaganda with the OBJ
ject of stopping the submarine war

The recent resignation of Admiral
