BRUTAL WCCK OF HUNS.
After Sinking Tuscania U.Boat At
tempted to Slaughter Survivors.

London, Feb. THAT German
submarine endeavOred to attack the
destroyers while the latter were en-
gagged in rescue work is the statement
made by an American officer at an
other Irish port where q large num-
Der of men were landed. The officer
said to correspondent OF The AS
sociated Press:
1.-The thing that impressed me
most In the whole experience was the
promptitude and precision with which,
the British naval men handled their
craft under the trying condition OF
rescue work. This work had only
just begun when there came the most
exciting moments of the night.
"A u-boat from the curtain OF
blackness behind which she was
skulking. thought to finish the work
by an attack on the destroyer. Three
torpedoes were discharged in a few
minutes at three destroyers and it was
only due to the watchfulness OF the
lookouts and the splendid seamanshil
OF the British naval men that they
failed to reach their targets.
This onslaught, however, reveal.
ed the approximate location of the
enemy. and pair of destrOyers at
once attacked with guns and bombs
SO effectively that even if the u-boat
was not sunk it was afraid to show
itself again."

GERMAN SPY CAPTURED.

Brought Instructions to German
Agents In United States.

An Atlantic Port, Feb. S.-A Ger
man spy was reported tonight to have
peen found among 40 first and second
cabin passengers Of the Dutch, liner
Nieuw Amsterdam. who earlier in
the day were detained by federal
agents for examination.
After IL sheets OF paper covered
with letters and figures of a code had
been found upon him. the man is said
to have broken down and to, have
confessed that he was in the pay of
the German government and hal
come here in order to furnish spies
operating in this country with the new
code. He is also said to have stated
that he had received q large sum of
money for undertaking the mission.
The man was said to be natural
lied American citizen of Dutch or
German origin.
Since the arrival of the Nieuw Am
sterdam here on Tuesday elaborate
precautions have been taken to pre-
vent German spies on board from
smuggling papers ashore.
Only government officers were al
lowed to meet the ship and when the
vessel docked it was guarded by 100
sailors and marines and rope barriers
were stretched between the passen-
gers leaving the ship and the per-
sons waiting to meet them.
Every person on board was thor
oughly searched before he was pe~-
mitted to pass the barriers and COM
municate with those on shore and af-
ter all had been searched 81 men and
three women, ii was stated, were de-
tanned for questioning. 1t was among
these the spy was found.
The purpose Of the spy in coming
10 this country was to reestahlish
communication between the German
spies here and Germany which hat
peen impaired by the ability of the
American intelligence officers to read
existing codes it was reported.

Columbia, Feb. S.-Indicatjons TO-
day are that there will be q bitter
tight between the house of represen-
tatives and the senate over the appro-
priation bill. The senate last night
inserted an appropriation Of 1000

and inserted other items that the
house had opposed.
1t is understood that there will be
n determined effort in the house to
have some of these amendments =
killed. Whether the effort will sue
ceed or not cannot be forecasted The
sentiment in the lower house is pret
ty well divided. There was some talk
today that there might be compro-
mise on the law enforcement fund of
$4,000.
There seems to be a disposition or
the part of some members of both
branches to block the Saturday night
