GHOST SHIP" MYSTERY
HAS NEVER BEEN SOLVED

London, Mar. 10.-Among the war
stories that British naval men feel
free to tell now is one about "ghost
ship" whose mystery has never been
solved.
In 1917, a convoy of twelve ships
left British port. At dawn on the
day after sailing the escort comman-
der discovered thirteen ships under his
charge. While the identity of the ex-
ira ship was being discussed, the con-
voy was suddenly attacked by German
light cruisers and most of the escort
and nine of the merchantmen were
sunk. The Germans then made off.
Survivors positively assert that
there were thirteen ships and that the
mysterious vessel disappeared as
strangely as she had appeared. They
are certain that the ship was not
sunk. Official inquiries failed to throw
any light on the nature of the craft.
1t was ascertained that she could not
have been disguised German raider,
and her presence was logged" by the
escort commander.
