30 OF SAN SABA CREW
MISSING; II RESCUED
Three Survivors of Sunk Cargo
Ship Landed at Norfolk.

Thirty members OF the crew of the
American cargo steamship San Saba,
which was sunk early yesterday If
teen miles southeast of Barnegat. n.
J.. still are unaccOunted for. Eleven
survivors have been landed. according
70 reports to the Navy Department
The latest advices to the Navy De-
partment report the landing of three
survivors at Norfolk. They were
picked up by a Norwegian steamer.
Four others were previously reported
rescued by another vessel en- route
to New York. and four more were
reported landed at Newport. r. /.
There are said to have been forty
one in the crew.
The captain Of the Norwegian steam
ct which landed three survivors at
Norfolk stated that the survivors were
picked up one at a time from the
wreckage. The San Saba was sunk
about l o'clock yesterday morning,
he learned from the rescued men.
Most Of the members Of the crew seem
TO have been washed from the wreck
age and drowned.
The cause of the disaster has not
been definitely determined, but the
theory Of the Navy Department is that
the San Saba struck mine. Recall
ing the battIeship Minnesota's colli-
sion with n mine OF the New Jersey
coast several days ago, the navy
experts still cling to the theory that
the mines were sown by enemy sub
marines during the campaign OF this
coast early in the summer.
Naval vessels now are on the scene

TO sweep the vicinity for mines One
dead body was found by the steamer

TURKISH PERIL
IN ASIA ENDED
Menace Done Away with by
Advance of Sir Edmund
Allenby.

5 General Allenby's great victory in
Palestine. followed up. as it surely
will be, by a successful advance by
General Marshall's army north of
Bagdad, will lead to these four sig
nificant results:
l. 1t will clear the Holy Land of
the unspeakable Turk and drive
him back into his own territory of
Anatolia.
2. 1t will make possible a contin-
uous eastern front from Archangel
to Bagdad. which will hasten the
coming of peace and give the allies
the advantage at the peace table.
3. 1t will abolish forever all peril
Of a Turkish attack on the Suez
canal and Egypt.
4. 1t will make a rude nightmare
Of the pan-German dream of a trade
route from Berlin to India through
Bagdad.
Allenby's drive, coming suddenly
and Unexpectedly because summer
and early fall is the time for cessa-
tion Of military activities in the
Orient, already has cleared central
Palestine OF the enemy. The next
step will be the capture Of the port
of Haifa and the city of Damascus.
Railroad Cut.
Haifa Is the only important port
OF Palestine except Jaffa, and the
recent victory has cut the railroad
from Haifa to Damascus. which was
the Turkish line of communication,
thus rendering its capture a mere
matter of time.
With Damascus In allied hands.
the way will be cleared for a great
double advance by the armies of
AllCnby and Marshall with the
joint objective of Aleppo. If this
can be carried out it will achieve
two objects:
l. A juncture Of the two British
expeditions in a straight line across
the northern end of the Syrian
desert.
2. Establishment Of a base line
for a drive to force the Turks out
Of Persia and Trans-Caucasia, thus
joining up the CZecho-SIovak front
in southern Russia with the Brit
ish front at Batum and herding
the Turks into Anatolia.
Another important result of Al
lenby's drive is that it forestalls the
German plans for joint Turko-
German drive in Palestine and Mes
opotamia this winter.

This is a big step forward. It is

many. II formal communications to
hat effect are sent by Germany to
the allies and the United States we
Uill have to answer them. There
will be, probably. a conference OF the

concerted statement OF peace
terms. The allies may agree. how
ayer, to have the United States speak
for all the nations opposed to the

will be already IS clear, but they will
