SOLDIERS MISSING
:. S. TRANSPORT OTRAkTO
WRECKED AT SEA.
Hole Torn in Side When Rammed in
Collision in North Channel by
Steamer kashmir.

Western per Union News Service.
A British Port, Oct. 12.-At least
372 American soldiers are believed to
have been lost as the result of the
sinking of the transport Otranto in
the north channel between the Scot
fish and Irish coasts in d collision
with the steamer kashmir. The OF

The terrific gale when the Kashmir,
another vessefin the convoy with the

Seventeen men Were picked up alive
on the Scottish coast. OF the G99
American soldiers on board the OF
ranto, $40 were landed. Seventeen
we're rescued alive at lslay, leaving
372 ~unaccounted for.
The Otranto and the other vessels
of the convoy were battling with the
high winds Sunday morning. The
storm was so severe and the visible
ity so bad that the Kashmir, a for
mel Peninsular and Oriental liner,
crashed into the Otranto squarely
amidships.
The Kashmir backed away badly
damaged, but was able to make port.
As the bows of the kashmir we're
pulled from the great hole in the side
of the Otranto the water rushed in,
but for a time it did not stop the en-
gines. The Otranto tried to proceed,
but made no headway against the gale
in her crippled condition.
Within a short time the water put
out her fires and the Otranto drifted
helplessly toward the rocky coast OF
Islay island, where most of the Tus-
cania victims me their deaths.
When It was seen that Craven would
make the attempt anyway. the men
were ordered to remove their shoes
and heavy clothing and try to save
themselves as best they could.

BREsT. France, August 1s.-The
announcement that more than 15e
German submarines were sunk in the
last year seems conservative. and
must include only the cases in which
the allies are absolutely certain that
the Uboat haas been either captured
crushed by ramminE. or located on the
bottom of the sea in shallow water. or
verified by the continued bubbiins OF
oil after the explosion of depth
charges. and backed by information
from Germany of submarine crews
that never return.
Near a certain French port a Ger
man submarine lies on the bottom OF
the sea, sunk by a French destroyer
by dropping depth charges. The sink.
outlined the submarine. which the
French hope to raise later. There are
other cases on record of combats with
submarines, the outcome of which
was uncertain, in which the subma.
rine later took refuge in a neutral
port. unable to navigate home. There
must be many caaes in which U-boat.
were sunk by gunfire. depth charges
torpedoes, mines and accidents.
This has led the allies to classify
sinking as certain. probable or ques.
tionable. Eurely many submarines
have been lost In the mine fields ol
