The council finds no reason for dis

American Vessel Sinks After Az
tack by Submarine

New York, Jan. S.-The American
charter to the United States Shipping
Board has been torpedoed and sunk
with the loss OF eight Of her crew,
according to 8 cable dispatch received
here yesterday by her owners, the
Luckenbach Steamship company, A
Whitehall street
The message did not state the date
Of the attack, the position of the
steamship at the time, or the names
Of the members of the crew who were
lost She carried thirty officers and
men exclusive of the naval gun crew
Of eleven.
The vessel was under command Of
Captain T. S. Jones, and left New
York two weeks ago with a general
cargo of munitions for France, but did
not carry any ammunition except that
for the naval guns aboard. She was
part of convoy of twenty-four ships,
One of the officials of the Lucken-
bach Steamship company stated that
the Harry Lucke nbach was at a
French port on Oct. Is when she was
requisitioned by General Pershing as
a supply vessel under the general re-
QUESTION order of the United States
Shipping Board. It is believed that
the steamship was sunk in the Eng
lish Channel when under convoy with
other vessels bound for4France.
The Harry Luckenbach was a single
screw three-masted iron steamship
that was built at West Hartlepool,
England, in 1881 as+the Surrey, and
was renamed the Michigan before be-
ing transferred to her present registry.
She was of 2,798 gross tonnage, 800
feet long, 40 feet 2 inches beam, and
"a feet inches depth of hold. and
had a speed of ten knots.
The lost steamship is the fourth
vessel of the company that has been
sunk by German submarines. The
others were the Jacob Luckenbach,
sunk July7, 1916; the Lewis Luclen-
bach. Oct. IA, 1917, and the D. N.
| Luckenbach, Oct 27, 1917.
Five members of the crew of the
D. n. Luckenbach were killed by the
| explosion of the torpedo.
The J. L. Luckenbach of the same
| line had a narrow escape from being
sunk off the French coast on Oct. 10,
! 1917, when she was attacked by a
JJ-boat and had a four hours running
gun fight in which two of the naval
gun crew and five of the ships crew
were wounded by shrapnel. The sub
marine exhausted her supply of tor
pedoes and could not use her deck
guns effectively against the merchant
man on account of the heavy seas.
The total tonnage of the four ships
destroyed by submarine is 12,50S. The
! manager of the Luckenbach Steam
ship company has cabled to Captain
| Jones to send full details of the sink
| ing of the Harry Luckenbach and the
| names of the men who were killed.
