A BRITISH PORT, Monday. October
z (by the Associated Press).-The
japanese steamship Hirano Maru. of
1885 tons gross, has been torpedoed

were lost. 4.
The Hirano Maru was outward
bound for Japan and carried about 200
passengers. The vessel was sunk by
German submarine early on Friday
morning when about 900 miles south
of Ireland.
The few survivors who were picked
up by the American torpedo boat de-
stroyer Sterrett have been brought
here. They declare that the torpedo
struck the steamer in the forward en-
CINE room.
Nothing remained for those on
board. including the women and chill

Providentially, the commander Of
the American destroyer Sterret heard

He found the ship had disappeared and
he saw a mass of people struggling in
the water.
There were no small boats avail

Survivors of Disaster.
Among the survivors were these
passengers in the first cabin: A. A.
Young, Louis Durmont. A. B. Karsch,
T. H. Butler and Fred J. KarSch.
About twenty-five members of the
Japanese crew were rescued.
While the destroyer was engaged
in the work of mercy and picking
the water the German submarine
fired two torpedoes at the warship.
Both missiles happily missed their
mark. After making a thorough
search for survivors the Sterret
headed for the submarine, firing sew
eral shots and dropping depth charges.
The Hirano Maru was built at
Nagasaki in 1908 and was owned by
the Nippon Yusen kabushiki Kaisha
of Toxic. The vessel was 463 feet
long, 56-foot beam and had a depth
of "a feet.

eight-inch projectile. Heretofore only
six-inch guns have been reported on
submarines.

four days before they were picked up,

beside the driver. There are huge
lorries, long columns of them.
All day long the rush of traffic on
these great main roads continues. To-
ward night the roads are sometimes
quieter, but there is still activity. All
through the night, the lorries plod on
their way backward and forward, the
ears dash by, the dispatch riders come
and go. There is no rest. Layer after
