LAST CRUISE OF
 A BRITISH SUB
. FLA Was Sunk By Turks With Surface Guns After
 Brave Battle.

FL M. Submarine E-14 left Mudros t 8:30 P. M. on Jan. 27, in order to proceed up the Dardenelles and earch for the Goeben. She proceed d on the surface without misadven- ure until 11:3O P. NJ, when all lands went to diving stations, says correspondent of the Pail Mall Ga cite. A quarter of an hour she sub merged to depth of 80 feet, and hen grauually went down to 15O eet From time to time she came ID to 21 feet for observations, which we're difficult on account of the dark less.
 At A. NJ, on Jan. 2S the first an i-submardne net was reached. The 1oat seemed to be hung up. The 4elm was put hard a starboard, then uM speed astern was ordered; the soat dived to 10 feet and the nets were cleared without any damage to he boat By A. M. she was off hanak, where she ran into more tets, which she could not clear under water. She was therefore, brought to he surface, and the captain climbed
 
 If the nets. He also discovered the gate" in the defences before return ng below. The boat was then sub merged again and passed under tho tets at depth of between ITO feet md 190 feet. All this had been ac- ,cmplished without any demonsra- lon from the enemy, and no mor2 lets were encountered
 The search for the Goeben was now begun, but without success, because Ls a matter of fact, she had been re- moved by the enemy six hours ear Ter. When the captain found she had zone he turned back, keeping a sharp cokout for any other enemy craft. One torpedo was fired at a ship which 1t transpired, contained the 3oeben's ammunition. Eleven sec Jnds after the torpedo left the tube heavy explosion took place. This ut out all the boats lights and prung the fore hatch. Leaking bad y, the submarine was blown to fif- cen feet, when a heavy fire was at bnce directed at her from the forts ut without hitting her. Every one ,n board kept his head; she was aken down to l9O feet, and contin- ied on her course. Several vessels were heard to pass averhead, but no bombs were dropped.
 The submarine now became un- 5teady and kept diving. She was then brought up to twenty-one feet for ob- ServationS being afterward submerged o 150 feet After this she got out )f control, heeled heavily to star board and ddved by the nose. The 0oxSwain managed to check her at L5 feet. The captain now decided to % up, as she could no longer be re- ted upon under water, and only three sOttles of air were left, She was therefore brought to twenty-one feet md then to the surface.
 A heavy fire was immediately opened from both sides. One shell htt Ter hull just over the wardroom- A mrv4vor has described what followed He says:
 "Ine captain was the first one up n deck, then the navigator. I fol- owed to connect up the upper steer ng gear, but we found the spindle o be shot in half. Orders were given o steer from below, and we ran the sanhIet for half an hour, only few Jhots hitting us. The captain, seeing 1t was hopeless, ran toward he shore. His last words were: 'TWo are in the hands Of Godi''-and only few seconds later I looked for him md saw his body mangled by shell Ire, roll into the water and go under. The last sheA hit the starboard sad He tank, killing all, believe"
 By this time the submarine was 1iose to the shore. Soon afterward dae sank, some survivors being pick d up by the Turks.
