MORE ABOUT 1T

Boston, Aug. 14.-Reports by sur
vivor sof fishing vessels sunk off the
New England coast by German sub
marine indicated today that the en-
en- ycraft had not been out as long
as some of it's officers had endeav-
ored to make it appear. The SUBJ
marine is painted white. Two of
the fishing fleet captains agreed that
the hulk had been painted very re-
Gently and they said that it did not
seem that the U-boat could have
been in American waters as far back
as May.
The vessel was described as 800
feet in length with two guns, six
Founders, mounted fore and aft.
Survivors said there were at least
100 in the crew and that the cap
tain of the prize crew appeared
more Spanish than German.

TROTSKY GIVEN
THREE DAYS
In Which to Answer the De-
mand of the Entente
Diplomats
REGARDING UTTERANCES

London, Aug. 14.-lt is reported
from Moscow by way of Berlin that
the diplomatic representatives OF
the entente have handed a cOllec-
tive note to War Minister Trotzky
demandinf within three days all ex-
PLANTATION of Premier Lenine's
threat that Russia would declare
war against Angle-French imper-
ialism," the Central News stated
yesterday.
1t was reported on onday that
Premier Lenine and War Minister
TrOtzky of the Bolsheviki govern
ment had fled from Moscow to the
naval stronghold of Kronstadt, and
that the Bolsheviki government as
a whole would fc;iow them there.
Owing to the difficulties of commu-
nication with Russia it seems prob
able that the above dispatch has
been delayed in transmission and
refers to an event of several days
ago. Lenine's declaration was
made prior to August when Am
erican Consul Poole at Moscow in
formed the State Department at
Washington that Lenine had told a
gathering of Soviets that a state OF
war existed between the Russian
government and the entente allies.
Washington, Aug. 14.-Reports
through Berlin that allied diplomats
have demanded an explanation of
threat, of a declaration of war
against the Allies, are assumed here
to refer to the action of American
and allied consuls in calling in
body August l., on Tchitcherin, the
foreign commissioner ID, Moscow.
The consuls after being told by Len
inc that state of war existed be-
tween Russia and the allies, de-
manded an explanation from Tchit-
cherin. They were told that the
statement was not necessarily inter-
preted as war declaration; that it
rather was declaration of state
of defense similar to the situation
existing at one time between Rus
sia and Germany.
