night that the chief purpose of
the "armored cars" was to ease
the minds of passengers, although
they we're confident that the
screens also would defect any
missiles that might be thrown.
They expect to have nearly five
hundred of these cars ready for
operation tomorrow, and if
enough trained men are available
by then. the cars will be started

Steamship Philadelphia
Rams Whale Off Ireland
Sea Monster Disappears When
Vessel Goes Back in
Search of II

A whale that lost his chart and sail
ing directions for the happy feeding
grounds spent too much time in the
westbound transatlantic lane last week
and was rammed by the American liner
Philadelphia, which arrived yesterday
from Southampton.
According to the ships officers, the
vessel was steaming at seventeen knots
about 500 miles westward of the Irish
coast when she hit the creature. There
was slight jar when whale and steam
ship came together. An abundance of
blubber on the girth of the sea monster
served as a cushion and few of the
passengers were aware that there had
been a collision.
The chief officer, who went out on
the liners bowsprit, saw huge tail
Tapping rapidly just under the surface
and reported that the stem of the ves-
sci had cut into a whale. Captain
Candy slowed down, stopped, and then
backed away, and the whale disap-
peared for parts unknown.
