great sensations if their publication
had been allowed at the time they oc--

Gently appeared and which wildly
recalls those apprehensive days when
the deadly submarine was getting in
its work is published in "The Trans

paper issued aboard the U. S. S. Le-
viathon, one of the great liners taken
over from the Germans by the Uni

Mrs. J. R. Cameron, of 119 Jefferson
street, by w. G, Cameron, a gum

the navy from Americas April 7,
1917, when our country was enter
ing the conflict. The papers were sent
from Hoboken, where the ship regu-

of returning doughboys from France.
Here is the story Of submarine
attack on the Leviathan which had
not been published before. The pa

Sunday, June l.:

hours before by three German sub
marines, following a running fight
and certainty of their presence out

forty-six boilers the Leviathan slip
ped from her mooring buoy, turned
her head toward the open sea and
