WAS CYCLOPS SUNK BY
SUBMARINES LEAVING
ABSOLUTELY NO TRACE

WASHINGTON, June 4.-Did the
German submarines which raided
American shipping off the Jersey
coast destroy the missing collier Cy-
clops, or did they capture. her at sea,
put aboard a prize crew and send her
to Germany? -. ......
Out of the mysterious disappear
ance of the American collier, now
missing three months exactly to
day, this question has been raised by
the passing remark of one of the sub.
marine commanders to Capt. Lowry,
of the steamer Texel, that the u
boats had been on the American side
of the Atlantic for two months.
1t is possible, though not probable,
naval experts say, that the collier
with her great cargo of manganese
and some 300 souls might have been
"spurlosyersenkt"-sunk without
trace-after she left Barbados where
she had put in for fuel.

lean action brought much favorable
comment among the allied officers
and men from the time that they
first took over their sector in the
present battlefield the Americans
have displayed an effectiveness with
the bayonet that has resulted in nu.
merous victories for them. They en-.
tered the fight with the idea that the
German is supremely afraid OF the
cold steel and their successes in its
use seem to indicate the correctness
OF their theory. Their greatest bra
very was displayed in facing the
heavy machine gun fire which the
enemy turned upon them but without
faltering and with shouts of victory
they stormed down upon the German
positions as though no guns faced
them whatever. Their victory was
complete and decisive and Il Is no
eXaggeration to say that they car.
ried everything before them.
