1T VESSELS CREW
 AMONG MISSING
British Transport Chartered
 By United States Sunk 700 Miles Off Coast By
 Sub. Likely Bound Home
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, June 24.-German submarines operating on this side of the Atlantic ocean have sunk their first transport ship. The navy department announced today British transport, chartered by the American government and bound to this country had been destroyed June IS, some 700 miles east of the Deleware capes and that 67 members of the crew are missing. There were no troops aboard.
 Ship Not Conveyed
 The troop ship apparently was not under convoy. The submarine was not seen until torpedo had struck. After wards she fired 19 shots into the sink ing vessel. When the steamer settled the crew took to the boats the occu- pants of four of which, numbering S1 men, have been landed. Three boats are missing and search is being made for them.
 Sub Homeward Bound
 Officials believe she either encount- cred a home bound submarine or else one that was bound here for further raids. The fact that the sea wolves which first appeared off the coast late last month had not been heard from since June IA caused most officers to hold to the first theory.
 The last sinkings occurred some 90 miles east of the Virginia capes and it was argued that in the four days elapsing before the British transpor, was sent down the submarine would have had ample time to reach the po- sition where the troop ship was sung
 Name Not Made Public
 The vessel destroyed was said to have been the former Russian steamer Dwinsk, but the navy department was not permitted to make the name pub lie under agreement with the British admiralty.
