HIT AGAIN
SATURDAY
GERMAN SUB HEARD FROM
AGAIN AFTER REST or
THREE DAYS.

Washington, June i0.-The Amer
lean steamer Pinar del Rio was sunk
by n German submarine 20 miles of
the coast Of Maryland Saturday morn
ing. One Of her boats. with the
captain and ~ members Of the crew;
is missing. Another with sixteen men
has landed on the Virginia coast.
A brief dispatch TO the navy de-
partment last night announcing the
sinking did not say whether the ship
was shelled or torpedoed. Hope Is
held that the missing boat either has
been picked up by some passing vessel
or will turn up at some point along
the coast.
Until last night the raiders had not
been reported as showing themselves
since the Norwegian steamer Vinland
was sunk of the Virginia capes last
Wednesday evening at q o'clock.
The Pinar del Rio was a freighter
Of 2504 gross tonnage and was built
in South Shields, England. in 1896,
being ehristened the Saba. She was
bought by an American firm some
time ago and placed under American
register. II Is assumed here she was
engaged In either the coastwise or
West Indian trade.
