An Atlantic sengers Port, board a British which arrived here England related that their vessel's approach . to this port for the last two days was exactly the same as when passing through the danger zone around the British Isles. For the first time on this side of the Atlantic since the war began the vessel made use of a mine sweeping apparatus with which it is equipped to clear a path before her. She steamed along on a zig zag course, with lights out and portholes shaded at night, and with all aboard wear- ing life preservers io bed on the last two nights of the voyage The passengers regarded the sud- den precautions as something of a joke and were inclined to be a bit peevish, until they landed and learned 0¥ the serious reason which prompted the precautions. The first intimation of danger was had Sunday night after supper, when the officers of the liner ordered all aboard to wear their life preservers to bed and to have them handy at ali times. The order came as a sur- prise to the passengers. but to their inquiries the ship's officers merely smiled in reply and repeated their warnings. Gun crews resumed their alertness and the watches were doubled. Short- Iy after noon a zig zag course was taken up and later in the day davits near the bow bearing the mine sweeping apparatus were swung out- beard. They hold an especially con- structed net which reaches the width oi the steamship and down below her keel, designed to brush against a mine without exploding it, and roll it to one side. Monday night was ness and the officers’ warnings were repeated. Early risers this morning ncted that the lifeboats had been swung overboard for instant use. There we fifty-seven passengers 2board the steamship, among them twelve women.

Gloria was Patrick “xpert Declares They Are Merely Larger Submarines and Not Deserving of Greater Fear. London, June 5 many’s submarine dismissed, Stories of Ger- cruisers may be says Archibald S. Hurd, vide! known writer on naval sub- jects, in an article appearing in the Daily Telegraph. “They are merely large suhmarines such as we have been building,” he sa: “They do not represent a tri- umph of German engineering any more consplcuous than a triumph our shipbuilders have achieved. It was because German submarines of about eight hundred tons could re- main at sea only a short time, were very uncomfortable and the condi- tions were very telling on the nerves of the crews that the enemy evolved a larger type modelled on the Deutschland. This type having been designed, it was decided to indulge in exaggeration in order to impress the world. “What man is the truth ahout submarines?” he continues. “These ‘cruisers’ displace not 5,000 tons, but about two thousand. They arc not 450 feet long, but less than 300 feet. Their speed on the sur- face is not twenty-eight knots, but about twelve knots. Wien submerged they do not travel at the rate of fif- teer knots, but approximately ten | knots or so. “It happens that we have heard more about the operations of German submarines than about the British mply because the enemy offers few targets for our submarines, while we offer the enemy thousands of targets every week. The percentage of hits by cur submarines is, in fact ahout three times that of the which itself indicates the high stan- | cara of efficiency of British ship de- sign, construction and operation. The work which British subma- rines are doing is magnificent. Our officers are handicapped by many | things besides the small number of targets afforded them. The Germans ire able to maintain their campaign cnly by defying every law of every | nation and ignoring the ordinary dic- {tates of humanity. There is nothing | casier than murder.” the Ger- Notice.
