DEFINITE CAuEE OF LOSS
Submarine Had Been Operating OF
Coast Which Indicates Sink
ing by Torpedo.

New YOrk.-German submarines ap~
pear to have renewed operations on
tn, American coast. The United
States armored cruiser San Diego
was sunk not far from the entrance
of New York harbor. Circumstantia1
reports reaching here indicate that
she was torpedOed.
There were also reports though not
confirmed, that other ships had been
attacked, one being described as a
coastwise passenger ship.
Whether there had been a toll of
lives taken on the San Diego was not
known up to late hour. No more
than 1876 had been accounted for out
of a crew of Liza men aboord the
warship of which some 300 reached
New York on a tank steamship.
Thirty-two men, lieutenant, an en-
sign and 80 sailors, were landed In
lifeboats on the Long Island shore.
Survivors were reported to have
been picked UP by other ships, how
ever, and to be on their way to New
York.

a. m, about ten miles southeast OF
Fire Island, which is off the Long
Island shore about so miles east OF
the entrance to New York harbor and
on the main highway of Transatlantic
ships bound in and out of the port.
Although the navy department an
nounced that the cause of the loss of
the San Diego had not been determfn-
ed, information received from reli-
able sources In the afternoon indicate
that submarines had been operating
off the coast and that she had been
torpedoed. There were rumors that
the cruiser had been in collision, also
that she had struck mine, but re-
ports current where survivors landed
on the Long Island shore bore out the
indications that German submarine
had been responsible.

Company Again Seeks
ToRaise Gas Price

The Public Service Commission yes
terday received an application from
the Brooklyn Borough Gas Company
for a hearing as to the price and
standard of gas in the 31st and 32d
wards of Brooklyn. The company
asked for an order directing that the
maximum price shall be $1.25 per
thousand cubic feet and that it may
be allowed to change it's present %
candle power standard and adopt the
British thermal unit (B. 7. w.
standard.
The company recently attempted to
raise it's rates for gas from 95 cents
to s1.25 on the strength of a decision
rendered by Charles E. Hughes, as
referee, declaring that the old statute
rate of 80 cents was confscatory and
unconstitutional, and leaving the COM
pany free to fix it's own rate. The
company was enjoined from establish
ing the higher rate by the Board of
Estimate, Justice Benedict, of the Su-
preme Court in Brooklyn, holding that
the company was still subject to the
jurisdiction of the commission. Yes
terday's petition was made in compli-
ance with Justice Benedict's decision.

Piez Urges Need of
Shipbuilding Speed

NEWARK, N. j., Aug 2s.-Charles
M. Schwab, who came here to-day with
Charles L. Piez, chairman of the Amer
lean Fleet Corporation, congratulated
officers of the Submarine Boat Corpo-
ration on making their programme
three ships a week instead Of two, and
said that when they had launched
eight ships in the next month, in ac-
cordance with the old schedule. he was
coming back, not only with Mr.. Piez,
"but also the whole damn Emergency
Fleet Corporation. Mr.. Piez ad-
dressed the shipyard workers, saying:
Between now and the first of next
year, no matter what sacrifices you may
have to make to accomplish it, we have
got to supply 100000 tons of new
ships. You men are charged with that
responsibility and are bound to re-
spond. We can only tell you our needs,
and it is up to you to see that we get
them.'
The yards will be closed on Labor
Day, but two ships will be launched on
SATURDAY. to make up for it,

$4,000 Bridgeport
Munition Workers
Get War Increase

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Wage in
less than 78 cents an hour in sixty six
plants in the munitions and related in
dustries of Bridgeport, Conn.,, are pro-
vided in an award of Otto M. Eidlitz,
umpire chosen by the National War
Labor Board to decide controversies
between the companies and their en-
ployes. The increases are made retro
active to varying dates. The decision
affects some $4,000 workers, among
whom there has been dissatisfaction
for long time.
The umpire's award establishes a
minimum wage of AZ cents an hour
for all male workers, skilled or un-
skilled, twenty-one years old or over,
and a minimum of 32 cents an hour
for all female workers eighteen years
or over 1t grants the workers. de-
mand for the basic eight-hour day in
all the manufacturing plants, estab-
/ fishes the right Of workers to bargain
collectively and to join trade unions
and provides that women performing
the same work as men shall receive
the same pay.
On the important question of class-
ficaton of skilled men the umpire de-
cided against changing present meth
DDS on the ground that to suddenly
order a complete readjustment of the
prevailing working system would be
prejudicial to the interest of the gov
crnment, which is directly concerned
in the output of the Bridgeport indus
tries. The workers demanded that
they be classified and that minimum
rate of pay be established for each
class.
The decision provides that a local
board of six members be established
Three of the members are to be chosen
by and to represent the workers of
Bridgeport and three to be chosen by
the employing companies. The func-
tion of the board will be to adjust
such future differences as cannot be
settled amcably.
The award Of Mr.. Eidlitz has been
duly made the award of the board.

Hog Island Report
Expected to Clear
Shipbuilding Men
Especial Dispatch to The Tribune)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2s.-The De-
partment of Justices special investiga-
tion of the Hog Island Emergency
Fleet Corporation shipbuilding agency
which was undertaken by direction Of
President Wilson at the suggestion of
Chairman Hurley Of the Shipping
Board has been completed and the re-
port drafted. 1t will be submitted to
the Attorney General within week
and he will transmit it to the Presi-
dent without delay.
1t is learned on good authority that
the report will find that nothing has
been discovered justifying criminal ac-
ton. 1t may seek to justify the in
vestigation by dwelling upon the huge
cost of the yard, which is now ap-
with an original guess of $4,000, 900.
AS a larger part of the expenditure
has been made since the Emergency
Fleet Corporation took special control
of all expenditures, because it thought
the American international Shipbuilding
Company, the agent, had already spent
too much money, it is considered
doubtful if very much emphasis will
be laid on this phase, especially as
the company received no compensation
for building the yard, which was
treated as incidental to the building
of ships at prescribed fee.
At the time the Fleet Corporation
appointed Admiral Bowles to super
wise Hog Island it was announced that
he was effecting large savings, but at
that time the estimated cost Of the
yard was SAL 100000. Another matter
that is believed to estop very much
being said in the way of adverse critic
ism is that the Emergency Fleet Cor
poration has shown its confidence in
its agents by giving it largely increased
orders, instead of cancelling the con-
tract and taking possession of the
yards as it bad the right to do.
Finally, it is argued, that any ar
raignment of the American 1nterna-
tional would be in effect an arraign-
ment of its principal, the Fleet Cor
poration, since everything the former
did was subject to the daily inspection
and approval of the principal.

Cardinal Farley, who has been seri

much improved yesterday afternoon.
Cardinal Farley's condition is quite
encouraging" said Monsignor Carroll,
his secretary. "The doctors say his
condition is still critical, but he looks
much better to me. He is gradually
gaining strength"
Many messages arrived yesterday at
the Cardinals residence wishing him a
speedy recovery. The messages were

Further Firing to Bring
About Entry to Sonora,
Message Says
Sound General Alarm
Carranza Official Had Ex-
pressed Governments Re-
grets to General Cabell

NOGALES, Ariz., Aug. %. - Firing
was resumed about 9:55 o'clock to-
night. Between fifteen and twenty
shots were fired from the Mexican side
of the border.
A general alarm was sounded on the
Arizona side of the international Line
and the mobilization of troops and
civilians followed Immediately
Notification that he would cross the
line if another shot was fired by the
Mexicans was sent tonight by Cen
eral De Rosey Cabell, commander of
the American forces, to General P.
Elias Gales, Governor of Sonora.
In the firing from the Mexican side
of the border tonight, one American
enlisted man, whose name was not i'm
mediately obtainablc, was wounded.
American forces here were increased
this afternoon by the arrival of new
units.
Mutual expressions Of regret over
yesterdays border fighting were ex-
changed to-day by General De Rosey
C. Cabell and General Plutarco Elias
Gales, representing the American and
Mexican governments. The generals
met on bridge spanning a dry wash
which is a part of the international
line. General Gales came here from
Hermosillo at the orders Of President
Carranza, and General Cabell fastened
from Douglas, Ariz., when the shooting
occurred between Mexicans and Ameri-
can soldiers here late yesterday in
which fifty-nine were known to have
been killed or wounded.
American and Mexican officials agreed
to day that the shooting started on the
Mexican side of the border yesterday
afternoon, and that Mexican customs
guards and civilians were primarily re-
sponsible for the affair. Neither Amer
ican nor Mexican soldiers were guilty
of starting the shooting, it was an
nounced here tonight, and they partici-
pated in the skirmish only after firing
had started.
Mexican Consul Zertuche announced
late to-day that he had sent an official
report to Washington, D. c., estimating
the Mexican casualties in yesterday g
fighting at thirteen killed and fifteen
wounded, including four Mexican wom-
en-. The American casualties were three
killed and twenty-eight wounded.
Americans here believe the Mexican
casualties will prove greater than the
estimate given by the Mexican Consul.
