The discovery of an enemy mine was

Secretary Daniels denied that orders
had been issued by the department to
coast cities to dim all lights. The Sec
rotary said If coast towns took this
precaution against possible German air
raids it was done through no sugges-
tion Of the department.. Air raids,
naval officials asserted. are not antici

partment gave indication that such Pre-
cautions as extingushing coastal city
lights were necessary.

officials is the need in Germany for

At the State Department announce

enemy submarines in Atlantic waters,
and neither have reports been received
from abroad that would indicate un-

: The department does not contem-
srlate any additional restriction on the
issuance of passports for oversea

night. Sunday night there was a
heavy blow and the women became
greatly alarmed We tried to cheer
them as we could. We had compass,
but we found we couldn't depend upon
it. After that we took our course
from the stars
THE women were splendid. All
wanted to help at the oars when the
men grew weary.
The only food we had in the boats
was the ships biscuits. We had
enough water, but we didn't know how
long we might need it. So while we
we doled it out to the men almost by
thimblefuls. They were game lot
THAT girl with us was the bravest
ever met. She laughed and sang.
Look at that girl, one Of the crew
said TO me. "A man couldn't help row
his head off to save her.
"Despite the fact that the Ger
mans got our ship, we have a joke on
them. On board were a number of
United States army officers. When
they found that German submarine
staterooms, shook their uniforms and
they could find. No doubt the Ger
mans would have liked to have them
for prisoners"
Mrs. Hamilton took philosophical

ahead.
THE storm came, quicker than we
expected it, The wind blew like gale
and kicked up nasty sea. The boats
pitched and soon became separated, and
we, who were IN motor launch,
seemed to be alone in the storm.
Rougher and rougher became the wa
ter. Finally the boat capsized and ali
into the sea. She was righted and
capsized again while we clurg to her.
This occurred several times. The
storm passed and the sea began to
calm. 1t was pitch dark.
FINALLY we kept the launch righted,
but she was full of water. We clung
to her and bailed out the water with
our hands Some could not stand the
strain, became exhausted, let go their
hold and sank. 1t was terrible.

one Of US in. Then he bailed furiously
and enough water was scooped out to

We kept on bailing until the launch
was able to bear the weight of third

finally, oil those who still clung to the
sides of the motor boat were able to
get in When the last was helped over

With the coming OF daylight the
hopes Of the survivors rose with the
sun. The sea had calmed, but daylight
revealed nothing but the broad ex-
panse of the Atlantic. All hands came
to the conclusion that none Of the
other boats had safely come through
the storm and that all in them must
have perished.
