PASSENGERS TELL vicinity since the submarines began their attacks at 6 o'clock yesterday The entre torpedo flotifia was ortlered to sea early this afternoon to search for the missing crew of the Kingston (or Kingstonian), one of the U-Boat's victima, The members of the crew are known to have . taken to the fife boats, but have not been heard from since they did so. 220 PERSONS RESCUBD, Rear-Admiral Albert Gleaves, commander of the destroyer flotilla, announced to-day that he had obtained the names of approximately 220 | % persons, including thirty-three women and ten children, rescued from five | + steamers known to have been 5 e “ine had been saved, the yy be gory the steamers West Point, Strathdene, Bloomersdijk, Christian Knudsen and Stephano, the latter a pessenger ship plying between New York and St. Johns, N. by Several of the torpedo boat destroyers reported that they were still searching for the Kingston's crew, supposed to be adrift in lifeboats south of Nantucket Lightship. The destroyers are cruising within a radius of | thirty miles of the Lightship in the hope of picking up the missing boats. Reports to Nantucket, Newport and Boston indicate there is certainly | ‘more than one submarine striking terror along the great International water highway. Officers of the steamer Kansan indicated their belief that at least two of Germany's super-U-boats were operating in American waters. WOMAN SAW U-61 LIFE BBLT. A despatch from Newport declares Miss Margaret Wilson of will. famstown, Mass., stated positively that she saw the name “U-61" painted on a life ‘preserver of the submarine which sank the steamer Stephano. Miss Wilson, who was a passenger on the Stephano, said she looked at the submarine through glasses and declared she could not be mistaken! in the letter and figures she saw. Allied warships are now closing in upon Germany's new submarine zone. The crackling wireless of three British cruisers is mingling with that of American destroyers out upon the sea on missions of mercy and fescue. .The bow of the steamer Bloomersdijk Is sticking thirty feet out of | the water. The navy has sent a warning to all vessels to watch for it. Seventeen navy Gestroyers are continuing a search for survivors. The richest prize bagged by the Germans yesterday was the Red (Cross passenger liner Stephano, which had just rounded the east end Of Nantucket when she fell a prey to a submarine. The Stephano was walued at $400,000 when she was launched three years ago. She carried also a cargo of codfish oil consigned to parties in the United States and South America and valued at $150,000, One of the destroyer Blach’s crew said that he saw a German supply | ship attending a submarine. The Americai destroyers witnessed the destruction of some of the vessels. In one instance the American boats were so thick on the scene that the German submarine commander asked the destroyers Bentham and McDougall to make way for him to blow up his prey. STEAMER FLYING U. S. FLAG - FIRST STOPPED BY U-RAIDER She Was Allowed to Go, and Then Four British and Two Neutral Vessels Were Sent to the Bottom. BOSTON, Oct. 9.—Submarine activities began at daylight Sunday, tliree miles east of the Nantucket Lightship, when the American steamer Kansan | sighted and signalled to stop. When the submarine commander was that she was an American vessel ho allowed her to proceed. ~ ‘The submarine then moved in close to the lightship, where, at 6 A. M., She stopped the British steamer Strathdene, bound from New York for Bordeaux. After the crew had obeyed orders to take to the ship's boats, the submarine sent @ torpedo into the steamer and sank her. ‘The raider, patrolling the vicinity of the transatlantic steamahip lane, moved considerably to the southward. At 10.45 A. M. she hailed the Brit-| ‘ “fab steamer West Point, London for Newport News, with a warning shot. ‘This was at a point ten miles south of the Lightship. The crew took to the | boats and the submarine torpedoed and sank the steamer. At 4.30 P. M., six miles southeast of the Lightship, a submarine stopped the Stephano. Passengers and crew were removed and the vessel sunk. Near sunset the British steamer Kingston came within view of the Jookout on the submersible. The same procedure was followed as with the other vessels, and at 6 P. M. the Kingston went down a short distance | southeast of the lightship.
