GERMAN U-B0ATS
 ARE SURRENDERED
BRITISH MET UNDERWATER CRAFT AT SEA AND LED THE
 WAY HOME.

Lonoon. - The following account of the surrender of the first batch of 20 German submarines, which was ac- complished at sea, is given by an eye witness of the incident. More than 50 other German submarines are to be handed over to the allied naval com mand before the end of the week.
 After steaming some 20 miles across the North Sea, the Harwich forces, which consisted of five light cruisers and 20 destroyers, were sighted. The flagship of Admiral Tyrwhitt, the com nander, was the Curacoa. High above the scuadron hung a big observation balloon.
 Soon after o'clock 20 submarines were seen in line, accompanied by two German destroyers, the Tibania and the Sierra Ventana, which were to Germany after the transfer.
 All the submarines were on the sur face with their matches open and their ! crews standing on deck. The vessels were flying no flags whatever and their guns were trained fore and aft in accordance with he terms of the surrender
 A bugle sounded on the Curacao and all the gun crews took up their stations, ready for any possible treach- cry.
 The leading destroyer, in response to signal from the admiral, turned and led the way towards England, and the submarines were ordered to fol- low.
 They immediately did so. The sur render had been accomplished.

Mooney, but Scott Nearing, who pre- sided, and the ether speakers devoJ- ed most of their attention to pleas for the release of political" offend- CTS.

 Soldiers and sailors who were un- able to get into the meeting sent ont patrols to round up men in uniform who would aid in the charge on the Socialists, which had been planned to take place when the oratory was enj- ed and the Internationalists started for their homes.
