would be able to capture and then de-

maximum military advantage the Ger

was the depletion Of the supply Of can

Admiral Benson refused to place much
credence in the declaration made by the
submarine commander to the captain O..
the Triumph that six L boats are now
operating in American waters. Very
careful checking of all information re-
garding the activities Of these crafts
has convinced naval afficials that only
three have been actively engaged. The
acting secretary warned against the
public placing too much hope in stories
OF German subnersibes being destroy
ed. In this connection he divulged the
fact that the claim of British mer-
chairman having sunk a submarine art
era long-ranee gun due! already has
been definitely controverted. 1t was on
this same submarine and several days
later that Capt. Evans OF the steamer
Penistone was detained after his ship
had been captured and sunk.
