REQUIRE 10 PCT.
ON APPLICATION
Three InstaIIments For Pay
ment of Bonds.

Ten per cent of the Fourth Liber
ty Loan subscriptions will be re-
quired on application instead of 5
per cent, as for past loans, the Trea
sury announce. Twenty per cent will
be due November 81, 30 per cent De
cember 10, 20 per cent january 16
and 80 per cent January 80.
This is the first time more than
three installments have been ar
ranged in addition to the payment on
application for any Liberty loan. The
initial payment was increased as a
means of discouraging the practice
of some persons in the past of sub
scribing without carrying out the in
stalments.
The setting of the last instalment
of 80 per cent as late as January 30
was interpreted as assurance that
the Fifth Liberty Loan would not be
floated before late in February or
possibly March.
The amount Of the fourth loan and
the redemption terms probably will
be announced tonight by the Treas
ury.
The initial payment, although due
at the time of pledging, need not be
paid until October 10. the end of the
a.
subscription period and loan cam
raign.
The installment dates will not in
terfere with the practice by which
many subscribers have bought bonds
through banks or other. agencies and
paid 10 per cent month for approx
imately ten months That arrange
ments, officials explained, is trans
action between the bank and it's Gus
toners and the Treasury is not in

Third-Obtained by making inroads
on our accumulated supplies or equ-
ipment.
To that extent with which, by saw
ing, we can carry On the war by
means of current abstinence, We
shall be better off when the wsr is
over. Whatever we import we must
ultimately pay for through some form
of exports. which will mean that We
must later deny ourselves the things
that we fail now to deny ourselves.
To the extent to which we draw on
accumulated supplies or equipment,
we are putting ourselves in worse
condition to carry on production when
the war is over and competition again
becomes keen.
Through the effective blockade OF
Germany, Germany has been COM
PEELED to pay for the wsr, to a great
extent, through current abstinence.
At least she has been prevented from
importing commodities to ay import

U. S. Transport Chased
~ Hours Up Coast
By Tuuo U-Boats

AN ATLANTIC PORT, June How
a transport raced up the Atlantic coast
with darkened lights at night and
under full pressure Of steam in order
to elude German submarines, at least
two Of which gave chase, was told to-
day by men on shore leave here.
Members Of the transports crew de-
clared they were warned in ample time
by wireless of the, nearness Of the u
boats, and were advised to keep in near
the coast and make all possible speed
to this port. They asked in return that
the ship be met at once by American
destroyers.
Two of the submarines were sighted,
but at such distance that they were not
identified by number, and the race be-
gan between the submersibles for the
transport and the troopship for harbor.
1t lasted for twelve hours, and al
though handicapped by having to steer
a zig-zag course the transport main
tanned a lead out of torpedo and gun
fire range until American destroyers
were sighted. The U-boats submerged
shortly before the destroyers appeared,
evidently having picked up wireless
message indicating that the armed craft
were near.

WASHINGTON, June 7.-sinking of
the Norwegian steamship Vinland by
German submarine sixty-five miles
off the Virginia Capes at p. m.
Wednesday, June S, was announced to-
night by the Navy Department. The
crew was rescued and landed to-day at
Cape May. N. J.
The Vinland was sent down nine
hours after the British steamer Har-
pathian was torpedoed thirty-ive miles
further from the Virginia coast. Until
word of her sinking came from Cape
May to-day nothing had been heard of
the operations of the enemy raiders
since the landing Of the Harpathian's 3
crew yesterday.
No details were given in the brief
dispatch to the department. This state
ment was issued:
"The Navy Department is informed

Advance of Austro Ger

anese Intervention

WASHINGTON, June News that
Austro- German troops are operating
near the Chinese boundary in Eastern
Siberia in conjunction with Bolshevik
forces against the anti Bolshevik
leader, General Semenoff, has revived
the possibility Of Japanese interven-
tion in Siberia.
The advance of the Austro German
force in Siberia, which probably is com
posed of former prisoners, may mean
action, as the result Of the military
agreement recently concluded by China
and Japan for the protection of their
interests in the Far East and which
was approved by the Entente allies.
The scene of the present operations
is so close to Chinese territory that
it is probable Japan will bring the
long smouldering situation to the point
of action.

CrelU in Hospital

CAPE MAY, N. j., June News of
renewed U-boat activity reached here
to-day when destroyer brought in
nineteen of the crew of the Norwegian
steamship Vinland, which was sent to
the bottom off the coast Wednesday.
The vessel that rescued them was q

was out on trial trip. The men, who
were suffering from exposure, were
taken to the hospital of the Wissa-
hickon Barracks.
Members Of the crew are mostly
Swedes and Norwegians, and speak
little English. 1t was gathered from
them that the Vinland was northbound
with a cargo Of sugar. The coast was
fogbound and there were showers and
squalls when the U-boat made its ap-
pearance.
The Vinland was small freighter
of 1,193 tons gross. She was 228 feet
