About 15 minutes afterward, we heard explosions like those that took place on the Cole and the steamer settled in the water About 6:30 D. m. we heard firing a little more to the south ward and about the same time heard firing to the westward. About D. m. we were picked up by the Bristol, and heard more firing to the southwark |"
 Sees Second Periscope
 Mir. Daniels pointed out to members of the naval committee that the state ment of the captain of the Cole that he had seen the periscope of a second U boat was the only report indicating that more tran one raider was off the coast. The close proximity of the sinkings to each other, with the excep ton of those several days ago off the Virginia capes, indicating the activ- ities of a single submarine, which has consistently saved it's supply of tor pedoes and used only bombs and gun fire so far as known.
 Unusually Thoughtful
 Apparently the Germans took care in each instance to give the crews a chance for their lives. Holding men aboard the raider under the conditions that surrounded her was an unusual display of humanity, it was pointed out which did not conform to German practices in the war zones abroad. The fact that these prisoners were later released and sent ashore lent color to l the idea that once the mask was off, the Germans wished to advertise their doings off the coast to the fullest pos | sible extent.
 May Have Sought Prince
 It now is known that intimations of | the intention of the German authorities | to raid Atlantic waters on this side had reached the British officials and | through them, the Washington govern ment. some time ago. The vessel that brought Prince Arthur of Connaught to | this country, en route to Japan, it was | learned, was warned by the British ad- miralty and followed a zigzag course to | the United States from Bermuda. This suggested that the real objective of the raider which now has turned to harry | ing American coastwise shipping might have been to capture a member of the British royal family.
 The prince reached the United States 1 about the time that the three SchoonerS wrecked off the Virginia capes were attacked.
 May Arm CoastWise Boats
 As precaution against continued raiding on the coast, the question O arming all coastwise shipping wa taken up today. Secretary McAdot had the matter under consideration foi railroad vessels under his authority Steps to put guns aboard all craft ma! be taken without delay
 Today's news revived speculation over the fate of the missing naval col Her Cyclops, which has not been hear' from since she sailed from AZore three months ago. Navy officials however, saw no clue to the solution of the mystery in the appearance o the submarine raiders, which probabl
 were in Europe when the collier dis appeared.

 WAS AIM IF |. W. W.
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

A two hour work day with minl- mum wage of $6 a day was the ulti- mate aim of the l. w. w. in the west ern mining centers. This was dis closed today by government witnesses who testified at the trial of 110 l. w. w. leaders before Federal Judge Landis.
 Francis L. Kirby, a ranger in the United States forestry service, at Mia mi, Ariz., the first of several witnesses called to show that the l. W. W. was responsible for the strikes in the cop per mines of Arizona last year which for time threatened seriously to em- barrass the country's preparations for war. told of attending numerous l. w. w. meetings in the district prior to the strike which began July ,.
 He said Grover H. Perry, one of tho defendants, spoke at several mass meetings of mine workers at Miami.
 Asks for Short Hours
 He said the l. w. w. leaders de- manded a six hour day and s6 a day pay and when they got that they would ask for four hour day with the same wages, said the witness. Perry then said the l. W. W. would never stop until they got a two hour day with a wage of $6. Perry also said the miners should receive enough wages to buy ham and eggs before being asked to buy Liberty bonds.
 Frank H. Little, who later was | lynched at Butte. Mont. also spoke al this meeting and related a conversa- l tion he had with Governor Campbell of Arizona, in which the l. w. w. lead CT said the organization would call 2 general strike and tie up every war in dustry unless the demands of the mer were granted

Could Tie Up Every Industry


 Jesse F. Henderson, a special deputy sheriff employed by copper company, testified to a speech delivered by H. J. Kane, another I. w. w. organizer, in which the statement was made that the organization had 190,000 members and could call a strike in 24 hours which would tie up every industry in the country. He said the number of guards at one copper mine was in creased from 20 to 200 after the strike | had been called. This action. he said was taken after there had been several explosions and fires on the company $ property.
 | A letter was read from w. D. Hay wood to Don Sheridan at Spokane, in which Haywood said:
 Want Things Their Way
 "We are crowding on steam this year. We want to get a real start before the authorities begin'to put their clamps on us. When we have every other industry as well organized as the lumber workers of western Washing ton and Idaho then we wont care what the law makers do. If we make the wheels go round the ship of state will be sailing to our breeze"
 That the l. w. W. did not want the American flag displayed in any of their headquarters was disclosed by a letter written by J. Ratti to Don Sheridan.
 T am up against a tough proposl- tion and want to get enlightened a lit tie bit on it." wrote Ratti. "The I. w W. hall is the only place in town with out display of the flag, symbol which means slavery and upholding it
 Will Not Fly Flag
 "The last two nights an American flag was nailed in front of the dool and naturally it was taken down. I an standing pat and will not fly a flag o1 any one nation as we are internationa in scope."fs
 In reply Sheridan wrote:

Take Cases of Oil

They took only few cases of the oil. as they had electric lights on the submarine.
 We captains had plenty to eat and they told us we might go where we pleased on the submarine and into any room except when we were submerg- ing. At that time we had to stay in whatever compartment we found our selves.
 Tt seems to me this submarine was at least 300 feet long. There were 7e men in the crew and there were two six inch guns mounted, one forward and one aft
