NEUTRAL VESSELS
Germany's Sea Wolves Still
Busy On This Side of

20 VICTIMS TO DATE
The Latest Are Two Norwegian Craft
Which Were Sent Down Ninety
Miles, off Virginia Coast

wolves have sunk two more neutral yes
sells In American waters.
inc late1t victims Of the raiders which
nrst made their appearance Off the
Auant!c coast some three weeks ago are
the sailing Ships KrinesJaa and tho bark
Samoa both Norwegian The crew of the
FORMER hnS beer picked up by an A-,er,.
can warship which is bring them to an
Atlantic port. and that o. the latter was
landed tonight ut Norfolk.
Both vessels were sent down ninet
miles on the Virginia coast. The Samoa
was sunk by skell fire at eight O'Clock
FRIDAY morning, the navy department an.
nounced to-day, but the time and manner
OF the sinking Of the Kripgsjas had no,
been reported to tie department late e..
night
It's announcement Concerning Tie
kringsJaa said:
"A United States man-o-war has picked
up all OF tho survivors Of the bark Krinx-
sJa4 which was sunk about 90 miles off
the Virginia coast. They axe being
brought to an Atlantic port
Although the report to the department
might indicate that some Of the crew of
the Krinesjaa had neen killed. officials
believed that as they had done before
the Germans permitted all aboard the
sailing ship to take to the boats before
sinking the vessel.
Since the Kringsjaa was sent down IN
the same general locality as the Samoa
1t was believed tonight that the same
submarine had accounted for the two
ships. 1t also was regarded as certain
that the same submarine unsuccessfully
attacked the British steamer Keenum off
the Virginia Capes last Thursday eve-
ming.
The Kringsjaa brings the total of YES
sells sunk by tho German C-boats off the
American coast to 20. six of which were
Norwegian. four steamers and two sail
Ing craft. The Kringsjaa was Of 1888 net
tons and the Samoa Of 1.051 net tons.
The Samoa, vessel of 1.051 net tons,
was sent down near the spot where the
British armed steamer Keemun was
unsuccessfully attacked Thursday even
Ing. The Norwegian vessel was the
nineteenth craft known officially "a
have been sunk by the raiders since
they began operations off the Atlantic
coast some three weeks ago.
The attack on the Samoa indicates
that Germanys sea wolves still are
seeking easy victims. picking out sail
ing vessels or unarmed steamers while
avoiding conveyed flotillas bound over
seas. The fact that the U-boats are
operating exclusively in the waters
we'll off shore between the Delaware
and Virginia capes. while the approa-
ches to New York are neglected. de-
spite the known fact that the greatest
war traffic goes out of that port, adds
to the impression that the raiders are
purposely avoiding dangerous oppo-
nents.
The tactics adopted by the submarine
commanders lead officials to believe
that Germany Ia counting only on q
hoped for effect on American morale
and momentary benefit to be derived
from the damage done.

u. S. TRANSPORT
NUECES SUNK
Former Mallory Liner Struck
by Steamer-All on Board
Are Saved

AN ATLANTIC PORT. June 16.-News
Of the sinking Of the American transport
Nueces on May Is in a collision of the
English coast was brought here yester-
day by 81 of the officers. engineers. and
crew. who arrived on a British liner
from England The accident, according
to the survivors, occurred at II 40 p. IN.
during dense fog, when the Nuecss was
one of convoy returning in ballast to
an American port.
A steamship, which so far has not been
identified. crashed into the bow of the
transport and ripped her side open az far
as the mainmast. and then sheered of
without waiting to see what became of
the crew of the vessel that had been
rammed. All vessels at these times run
without lights. and in the fog it was i'm l.
possible for the officers on the bridge
of the Nueees to see what the stranger
was like. All they could tell was that
she was heading toward a British port Al
speed Of II or Is knots and did not
belong to their convoy.
The majority of the crew of the trans
port were sleeping at the time and rushed
on deck directly they were aroused by
the impact and the yells of the watch
on deck. One Of the stewards was In
iured In his bunk by the collision, but
not seriously enough to prevent him get
ting to his lifeboat.
All hands on the Nueces were saved
the officers said to-day. They did not
have time to pack UP their kits, but hur-
ried to the lifeboats directly the whistle
blew for boat stations. 1t was nearly
two hours before the transport sunk.
After pulling toward the English coast
for six hours the survivors were rescued
by torpedo boat destroyer and conveyed
to port in England.
One of the officers said that many col
Itsions had occurred In fogs Off the
British isles, chiefly through the steam
ships running without lights and not blow
ing their whistles as a warning Of their
approach. During the same fog In which
the Nueces was sunk he heard that a
Your masted sailing ship bound from the
! East Indies by way Of the Caps OF Good
Hope had been Gu: clean in two b. a biz
British transport bound west, which
stopped, however. and lowered her NE
| boats TO rescue the crew Of TIE WIND
p; jamner.
The Nueces was an iron eingle screw
steamship built at Chester, Pa. for tho
Mallory line In 1887 for tho freight and
| passenger trade between New York and
Galveston.
