Esperanza De Larringa. sailed from
Norfolk the same day, as did also the
British tanker Ottawa. The Cabe-

out OF Norfolk. sailing on Feb. 8. OF
these the Ottawa was the only one
heard from after leaving port. She
was in wireless communication with
the steamer Dorrington Court sew
eral hundred miles out on Feb. 5.
when everything was apparently al
right with her.
No such series Of maritime casual
ties has been known except when
the German U-boats were active.
Since the first of the year twenty
ships OF all sorts have been posted
as missing. all in the same general
zone. and traces Of none have been
