THINKS HE'S LUCKY TO BE ALIVE NOW Private William Farr, Wounded at Seicheprey, Says He Lost Every- thing But His Life. Mr. and Mrs. John Farr of Lasalle street have received a letter from their son, Private Willlam Farr, who was slightly wounded at the battle of Seicheprey on April 20. The Iletter was written in a field hospital eight days after the battle and the soldier wrote that he was at that time 200 miles away from his company and aside from a few wounded who were with him he knew nothing of the fate or whereabouts of the 102d U. S. In- fantry. Commenting on the battle, Private Farr writes that on April 20 he thought he would never write another letter or see home again and, he adds, he never prayed so much or so seri- ously before in all his life. He also thinks that the war will last a long time. The letter written by Private Farr indicates a possibility that the 102d regiment was suddenly attacked by the Germans on April 20 for he writes that he had all his earthly possessions rolled up in his blanket and he lost everything except his life and feels lucky to be‘alive to tell of it.

Abbe | the | BROKEN SUBMARINE. MAKES WAY T0 PORT H-14 Lost Part of Bow 800 Miles Out at Sea An Atlantic man of the States Port, May 28.—Not a original crew of the United Submarine H-14 was missing when the sturdy undersea craft, patched somewhat but still thoroughly seaworthy, slipped into an Atlantic port bringing with her as thrilling a story of escape from death 800 miles at sea as ever has been spun by the crew of an American submersible, It was revealed that in the dead of | night when she was running awash the H-14 had poked her nose full into the side of the mother ship, which formed part of the convoy of three submarines of the H class which were well on their way on a transalantic journe Most of the H-14's crew of 26 were curled up asleep on the floor of the submersible when the crash came. As they awoke and tried to scramble to their feet the H-14 already had be- gun to settle by the stern and the sur- prised bluejackets found themselves almost in upright positions. The wash of the water over the steel frame ot the slowly sinking boat could be heard plainly and ahasty survey from within showed that the crash had demolished 12 feet of the submarine’s bow. The submarine's engines tugged and tugged, finalled freeing from the gap- ing hole she had torn in the side of the mother ship. As the how of the submarine slid free of the vessel that had been rammed she settled a little further in the water. Then suddenly a whoop of delight went up from the men imprisoned in her, for she righted slowly and examination showed that the forward bulkhead door had closed tightly, preventing ecven the' slighest inward seepage of water As the H-14 rose to the surface again another of the convoying ves- sels came alongside of her and she was made fast by a hawser cast astern of the larger ship. Then it was seen that the pointed nose of the sub- marine had punched a hole into one of the side fuel tanks of the mother ship and that 27,000 gallons of fuel oil had heen lost. : Preliminary surveys of the damage to the submarine showed the bulk- head forward still was sealed tight the closed door, and the entire crew stayed aboard as the convoy vessel turned about and towed the damaged submersible back over the long 800 miles to an Atlantic port only a few miles from one the convoyed flotilla had left a few days before the acci- dent. It was from that port that the H-14, preliminary repairs completed, ar- rived yesterday at the port where her crew told the story of the crash. She had been placed in dry dock and equipped with a false woden bow, which will serve her well on the trip to another dry dock, where she will receive a new steel nose. The H-14 was one of the fleet of undersea boats whose hulls were built in Fore River, Mass. Her engines were built in New London, Conn. TRAFFIC PLANS MADE. Poteet Named As Chairman of Cham- ber of Commerce Burcau. Trafic managers representing the Stanley Works, Traut & Hine Mfg. Co., American Hosiery, North & Judd Mfg.

Washington, May 28.—Through the use of light web ammunition belts, American and British infantrymen carry 100 more rounds of rifle am- munition than their German oppo- nents with leather belts and this seemingly unimportant part of equip- ment has resulted in repulse of su- perior enemy forces on more than one occasion, says a statement issued by the ordnance bureau. With his web belt the American eoldier carries 200 rounds of ammu- jand Danfel nition disposed so every cartridge Is easily accessible. The German sol- dier carries but 120 rounds.
