U.S.. Submarine
Said To Have
Sunk U-Boat
Story Is Credited to Amer.
lean Naval Officers by
Liner Reaching Port

A German Submarine, either sur
prised OF outfought, was sent to the
bottom of the Atlantic three or four
days ago by an American submarine,
! according to information brought to
this pert yesterday by officers Of an
American merchantmen from Cuban
and Mexican ports.
The story was not related as mere
heresay, but as facts, volunteered hon
estly by naval officers on board a
mother ship that lay at anchor in the
roadstead of an American port where
the merchantmen chanced to go for or
ders.
When the liner anchored off the fair
way an officer was sent out from her IN
launch to board one of the American
naval vessels for orders as to the time
of his departure and the course he was
to take.
Told Submarine Was Sunk
The launch made fast to what the
merchant officer believed was the war
vessel from which he was to receive
orders, and found that he had boarded
a mother ship for American sub
marines. He was advised that it was
the wrong ship, and was directed to the
proper one by a chief petty officer.
Alongside the mother ship were two
submarines, one Of which had just come
in from the sea.
A. <hn nhoY NJ w q
about to reenter his launch to move
out to the proper ship for instructions
the chief petty officer with much pride
said: "Well, we got one of the German
submarines three days ago."
Then, pointing to the submarine that
had,just come in, he added: There is
the sub that sunk her"
A commissioned officer was standing
by the chief petty officer when the in
formation was volunteered and made
no comment.
Did Not Learn Details
The merchant officer then expressed
surprise and interest in the capture,
and asked how it was done. Immedi-
ately both naval officers replied politely
that no details could be given.
The officers of the merchantmen
which arrived here yesterday denied
early reports in which they were
quoted as having described the manner
in which the American. U-boat sank the
German.
"That is mere fancy" said one Of the
officers. 1.-THE naval officers gave us no
more information than the mere fact Of
the sinking and the pointing out of the
boat that did it. believe the sinking
occurred just as it was told to me. The
navy men had no object in manufacture
ing the tale and their appearance did
rot suggest that they were jesting."

DECENTRALIZATION PLANS ISSUED

General orders made public by the
war department have been transmit
ted to all organization commanders
in the United States covering in de-
tail the process to be followed in de-
mobilization of the troops. Careful
provision is made for retaining per-
manent record Of the service per-
formed, not only by every organiza-
ton of the army, but of each indi-
vidual officer or man who composed it.
Particular attention is given to the
final physical examination of men
called up in the draft for limited
military service because of physical
disability, in view of the possibility
of future disability claims. To safe
guard the soldiers interest provision
is made for a medical board of review
if the findings of the examining sur
geon are disputed in this connection.

PRESIDENT TOURED ENGLAND
ON bike" IN 1908.

When President Wilson visits Eng
land this year, the central figure of
the world, and accorded all the hon.
age of king, he may reflect upon
his last visit therein 190S-when
he toured the country on a bicycle,
unnoticed and unacclaimed.
At that time he peddled over the
country roads of northern England
and Scotland, probably with never a
thought of the day that will be his
when he arrives next month.
Two years previously he spent five
months in rest and recuperation in
at the once cottage retreat of the IA
nous poet Wadsworth, in northern
England.

OBITUARY.

The community of Grand View
was saddened on Thursday, Novem-
Der 5th, when Mrs. A. o. Crabtree
received telegram stating that her
son, Ralph, was dead. He left here
a few months ago for Nebraska, aft
erwards going to his father in Berk,
Idaho. His father was at his bed
side at the time of his death. Ralph
told his father that he would like to
live to come back to see his mother,
but if he had to die all was well.
Ralph was II years old. We often
wonder why one so young and full
of life should be taken; but God
chose to take him and His will be
done.
His remains were brought to his
parents home on November 10th, and
what a sad return to the one which
had been expected! We little thought
when bidding Ralph goodbye that it
was the last time to see him in life,
and before year we would look on
his cold and lifeless form.
The funeral services were conduct
ed at Pleasant Vale by Rev. M. H.
Carder. Six of his schoolmates acted
as pall-bearers. They were Messrs.
George Skinnell, Carl Smith, Willie
Phillips, It'd Dinwiddie, Fitzhugh and
Paul Maupin.
He leaves to mourn his loss a
father, mother, two brothers and
sister. The bereaved have the SYM
patty of the entire community.
He will be missed in the school at
Grand View as well as in his home.
We cannot say, and will not say,
That he is dead-he is just away.

SOLDIERS PAID ON DISCHARGE

The war department emphasized
yesterday that soldiers being dis
charged from camps are paid in full
and paid also travelling expenses at
the rate of 81 cents mile to their
homes. They also have 2-cent-a-
mile rate on all railroads.
This statement was made because
some men in uniform in some cities
near the camps have been reported
soliciting aid from civilians with pleas
that the government has discharged
them from service with no provision
for their return home.
