One Russian gun- boat was destroyed. The offictal announcement of the admiralty conflicts aa to some points with an earlier statement of President Rodzianko of the Duma, announcing the Russian victory, but fm the main the claims of a crushing blow being dealt the Ger- mans are borne out. “One of the best German dread. naughts was sunk by a British sub- marine and at least two German cruisers and eight torpedo boats were sunk,” the official statement declared. “The Russian gunboat Sivutch ‘was set aflame after brilliant fight- ing and sank, carrying down with her a German torpedo boat.” President Rodzianko declared the dreadnaught Moltke, three German cruisers and seven torpedo boats were sunk by the Russians. He also said four barges loaded) with German troops were captured and the enemy force destroyed The admiralty made no claim of! the sinking of German troopships. In admitting the sinking of the| gunboat, the Petrograd statement| makes no reference to the Koreets,| a sister ship, which an offictal statement from Berlin Saturday claimed was also destroyed. 15,000 ATTEND SUNDAY PICNIC IN SEWARD PARK Seward park, the great undevel- oped playgrowd of the city, lying} out Rainier valley way, was given the greatest boost of its history Sunday, when 15,000 Seattle folks attended the ptienic given by a com- mittee of Columbia City bustness| men, using part of the proceeds from the recent Rainier valley fiesta to make the day a suce: There were all sorts of sports, land and water. Seward park contains 200 acrea, mostly of woodland, and it was pur- chased by the park department in 1909-19 at a total cost of $322,020.60. Rainier valley citizens are at- tempting to have the great park developed. i | | | JIMMY.

He has just been promoted to be commander of a large ship. “It will be from eight to fourteen days before the submarine, which is away now, can report,” this of. ficer sald. “Until then we will have no official information. “From excerpts of the English, Dutch and Scandinavian press; it is not certain that a submarine sank the Arabic. No one saw a submarine, The Arabic's captain says he saw a tropedo 300 feet away, but this does not seem prob- able. “It is possible the Arable struck a mine. A Copenhagen statement says mines are floating off the East and West coasts of England. There are so many doubtful points | at iasue I hope the United States will not jump at conclusions until the facts are determined.” This is the first intimation from any source that Germany may deny the Arabic was torpedoed by a sub- marine, ASSERT LINER WAS | ‘SUNK BY SUBMARINE LONDON, Aug. 23.—The British foreign office went flatly on rec ord today as claiming that the liner Arabic, an unarmed passenger- carrying steamer, was sunk by a German submarine without warn- ing and without having attempted to escape or to attack the subma- rine, “The Arabic was an unarmed passenger steamer, outward bound to a neutral port,” it was stated, “Thus tt was impossible for her to be carrying contraband to this | country. “The Arable was sunk by a Ger. man submarine without warning.” It 1s assumed this statement ts based on report made by Capt.
