LONDON. November 8.-A telegram

Describes U-Boat Warfare.

Capt. Bartenbach. commander Of the
submarine bases in Flanders, de-
scribsd U-boat warfare. He said that in
1915 and 1916 hardly anything could
harm the submarines. but in 1917 the
work Of the submarines became more
difficult because of British inventions.
such as listening stations. from
which it was possible to hear any sub
marine entering the channel. and also
the fast-developing British flying
service. which made it extremely dam
gerous for U-boats
This situation became materially
worse in 1918. The Germans. how
ever. were able to counteract the
mines to some extent by sending
aviators over the mine fields at ebb
tide, when the mines could be charted
Testimony was also given that the
Germans tried to Underestimate
rather than ovefestimate the losses
of ships they sank. Each returning
officer reported infinitely as to the
size and probable tonnage of vessels
sunk. The admiralty subtracted 10
per cent.
Capt. Bartenbach said that the adj
miralty deducted one hundred thou
sand tons monthly for destruction BY
mines. In his opinion the submarine
warfare had been declared too early.
as Germany was not ready, and did
not have sufficient U-boats. Germany
had only about thirty boats, he said
in February, 1916.

BERLIN LISTENERS
Former War Makers Debate
Attitude of British NAVY in
Statement to U. S.

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN. Thursday. November Gin
response to questions as to what caused
the decision to start the submarine
warfare, what justified it and what
prospects it had for success, Admiral
Won Koch made a long, chiefly technical.
reply at today's hearing on responsible
ity for the war.
He quoted at length from reports of
the late Admiral Won Holtzendorff. for
mer mead OF the German naval staff,
who. he said. felt that American neace
intervention could not be counted on
ana that Germany would have to take
chances on Americas participation in
the war.

Admiral Won Koch asserted he did not
Know about President Wilson'S neace
plans, Whereupon Won Bethmann Holl-
veg entered the debate, asserting that
ne mao reported the matter in detail to
the chlef of the admiralty staff. AS a
result OF his remarks Won Bethmann
holiWeg was subjected to another
neckhng. which caused him to lose his
temper. He regained his equanimity
quickly. however, asserting that he was
peils treated as an accused rather than
as witness
Inex investigating committee sat
Admiral Sims account of his inter
view with Admiral Jellicoe, Great
Brltain's naval head. just after the
declaration of the intensified U-boat
warfare by Germany. The account
seemed to give many of the listeners
forlorn sense Of satisfaction. Ac-
cording to the account. Admiral Jel-
llcoe had admitted Great Britain's
peril. Admiral Won Koch pointed to this
as justification for beginning the un-
attention to Jellicoe's alleged state
ment that the British losses had been
three or four times as heavy as Of
f1cially announced.

Claim Sinkings by Mistake.

Capt. Won Bartenbach, explaining the
difficulty of communicating by wire
less with submarines away from their
base. related how seven Dutch ships
were sunk owing to submarine being
submerged and failing to get a mes
sage giving permission for the YES
sells to pass. This severely strained
diplomatic relations with Holland. &C
cording to Capt. Won. Bartenbach.
Col. Won Merz asserted that Germany
was able to decipher all English mes
sages sent after 1914.
Admiral Won Koch criticised Admiral
Won Tirpitz for the interview the min
lister of marine had with an American
newspaper correspondent lin Deem
Der, 1910 in which the submarine war
was predicted.

Discuss Jellicoe's Purpose.

DR.. Eduard David. minister of the
interior. gave as his opinion that Ad-
miral Jellicoe had tried to mislead
the United States through Admiral
Sims. Won Koch replied that this was
hardly possible since Admiral Sims
was an outspoken enemy of Ger
many.
Vice Admiral Eduard Won Capelle,
former minister of the German navy,
was forced to admit that the U-boats
were powerless to prevent trans
portation by the British of ammunition
across the English channel. He reIat
ed in detail the British system which
made use of nets, searchlights, de-
stroyers and fast cruisers to foil the
submarine.
They only succeeded at night he
added triumphantly.
