ashore and summon help, but did not
return.
The crew of the Texel were taken

The first warning we had" said

alongside our ship. The captain, who
spoke good English. boarded our
boat. demanded our papers and order
ed us to leave the ship. The guns of
his U-boat were kept trained on u.s."
After the submarine commander had
taken over the Texel Capt. Lowry
reported that the captor said: Il hate
like - to do this. but we have been
ordered to get into action or return
home. We have been over here for
two months"
There was no attempt to get the
men," Capt. Lowry continued. I'VE

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. June 4.-The
American tank steamer Herbert L.
Pratt, Mexico for Philadelphia, with
a cargo Of oil. was sunk by a Ger
man U-boat Off Cape Henlopen and
sank almost at the mouth Of the
Delaware. up which river gigantic
shipyards are working at top speed
to overcome the submarine menace.
Prior to sinking the Pratt the sub
marine fired at the British tanker
Arco, but owing to the vessel trav-
cling light she was able to get away
unharmed. The Arco passed Reedy
Island. Delaware. at 10 o'clock last
night.
Within twenty minutes from the
time the Pratt was sunk naval ves-
sells gave chase to the submarine
and in a very short time thereafter
the warships opened fire on some-
thing at sea. but it is impossible to
say Just what occurred.
The crew OF the Pratt was landed at
the fourth district naval station at
Cape Henlopen and cared for during
the night.
The Pratt sank about four miles
east st-southeast Of Cape Henlopen
Hght. She Is down by the head and
her stern can be plainly seen from
shore sticking out Of the water. Her
position Is such that it is believed she
can be raised.
Firing Heard Or Shore.
The first indication along the sand
dunes of lower Delaware bay that
something unusual had occurred at
sea was when firing was heard off
shore about 1920 o'clock yesterday
morning. This information was
brought ashore early in the after
noon by bay men.
Later the tanker Pratt was seen
making her way in between Cape
May and Cape Henlopen. which are
about ten miles apart. Several men
standing at the point of Cape Hen
lopen saw her steam along and then
noticed that something had happened
to her. 1t appeared. they said. as II
there had been an explosion. All
boats were lowered and the steam

Sinkings Have Been at the
Rate of 100000
Tons a Month.

Loss in shipping from submarine at
tacks and mines during the first three
months Of this year totaled 1900. 900
deadweight tons. This Is an average Of
100000 tons a month. OF that average
Great Britain lost $4,000, other allied
and neutral nations, 216.000, and the
United States. $4,000.
During April. the sinkings caused a
total loss Of $4,000 deadweight tons. and
II tho figures are held anywhere near
this basis, productions will exceed sink

Losses and Production.

gagements between American war
ships and the German undersea raid
ers, which had swept away the splen-
did isolation of America and brought
the merciless German war Of the sea
5000 miles across the Atlantic to the
threshold of American homes.
Rumors Prove False.
All day rumors of battle off the
capes and of ships destroyed by tor
pedo and shellfire were circulated
but, boiled down to real facts. they
were dissipated. One statement
made upon excellent authority, was
that a battleship had sighted a sub
marine but, believing that there were
five and that the one sighted was
used as a decoy to get the battleship
within range Of a torpedo. the battle
ship set out >smoke screen and
changed its course.
Scout in Air and on Sea.
One outstanding fact of the sub
marine appearances is that every
available warship in Hampton roads
every available airplane at the naval
base and Langley Field were sent out
to scour the sea in pursuit of the SUBJ
marines.
