RAVAGING U BOATS f DEPRIVE NEW YORK OF FAVORITE SHIPS Depredations of “Su of “Subs” Can't, Be Made Up by Enemy Boats Interned Here. The Eventag World to-day gives its readers somo facts and figures! that will in a measure bring home; ® realization of the astounding havoc ‘wrought by German submarines on merchant shipping. A maritime statistician has pre- pared for The Evening World a table giving a comparatively accurate idca | of U boat depredations among vessels to which New York before the war | ‘was either a home port or a port of call, The figures show that if all the German and Austrian ships interned in harbors of the United States at the | outbreak of war in 1914 were drawn upon to replace ton for ton the ves- sels frequenting the Port of New York that have becn. destroyed there would not be enough enemy tonnage to make up the loss, The Austro-Germon in- terned merchantmen represented un aggregate of approximately 500,000 tons, The ships plying to and from the Port of New York in peace times tlint have been lost as a result of the war touch a graud tonnage total greatly in excess of this. The International Mercantile rine Company has suffered the great- est losses, with the Cunard Steaim- ship Company and its subsidiaries running a close second. It is a remarkable fact that the Compagnie Generale Transatlantique, more familiarly known as the French Line, did not lose a single vessel in its regular passenger service during the entire period of the war, La Provence, known to thousands of American travellers and one of the crack ships of this line, was torpe- doed and sunk in the Mediterrancan, but she was in Government service and being used as @ transport at the Ma- trade. In New York and old favorites with ; vessels that have been destroyed American travellers, since 1914, The Italian lines have lost a total of 36,428 tons, While the Lamport and Holt © my comes out of the war minus lons, these figures iadi- cating ships’ that were formerly |#tlon {ssued an appeal to-day on behalf in the New York trade, of “No, 41."
