Approximately 350 pas- sengers were on board, one or two of them Americans. All were saved, according to the latest re- port issued by the Allan Line. The crew numbered 250. The steamer did not sink, and is reported proceeding under A convoy to Queenstown, to which Passengers landed ae Queens- town asserted that the attack was made without:warning. The United States Embassy here has not yet received any information on this point. The American Consul at Queenstown tele- graphed the Embassy, however, that there were one-or two Amer- many will disavow the attack on the Hesperian, if English reports of the circumstances are fully corrobrated by her submarine commander, according to a dis- patch from Berlin today. ry Germany’s expfanation, the dispatch said, will be that if a submarine torpedoed the liner without warning it was because the U-boat had left its base be- 4 f fore the new instructions were is- 3 sued through the admiralty.

Deal, State Treasurer, let it be known to the chairmen of the commissions ap- pointed by the last -Senate that unless ‘the money appropriated to defray the expenses was re- turned to the State by next Sat- urday suits would be instituted to recover it. It had been the custom for the Senate by resolution to create commissions of its members to investigate certain - legislative subjects and report back pro- posed legislation to the next Leg- islature. The last senate created five commissions, but a storm of pro- test arose from certain House members, who charged that the commissions were merely ‘‘junk- eting committees.’’ Attorney General Barker gave an opinion that the senate could not legally appropriate money by a resolu- tion of the house alone.
