There appears to be no doubt about the fact that the White Star liner Cymric, which had been engaged for some time in the freight service be- tween this country and England, was sunk by a German submarine. The report of the officers is to that effect and the conditions all point to it. Interest now centers on the point as to whether the vessel was in the ser- vice of the British admiralty, and if it was not whether any warning was given to the ship or whether it tried to :scape after being warned.
