About 150 lives wore lost In the sinking by Gorman submarines of the African liner Knlnha mid the British steamer Abulia, bound from Liverpool for Lisbon. The Kaluta was torpedoed In St. George's Channel. The vessel carried a crew of 90 and about 100 passengers, and of this total only 140 were res cued. Of those rescued eight died later from exposure. The Agulla had a crew of 42 and three passengers and of these 23 of the crew and all the passengers were lost. In both cases on sighting the sub marine the captain tried to escape by putting on all speed possible, but the under-water craft overtook the steam ers, showing that Germany now has some of her most mod urn submarines engaged In the blockade operations against England. The captain of the Falaba, who was one of those lost, was given five min utes to get his passengers and crew into the boats, but, according to the survivors, before this was possible a torpedo was fired, striking the engine room and causing a terrible explosion. Many persons were killed and the steamer sank in ten minutes. Trawlers which happened to bo In the vicinity rescued most of those who were saved. The Aguila was attacked off the Pembrokeshire coast The submarine opened fire with her gun, shells from which killed a woman passenger, the chief engineer and two of the crew. Even after the crew had commenced to lower the boats, according to the story of the survivors, the Germans kept up their fire, and some of the boats were riddled with bullets.

On the day named three weeks will have been spent by the German auxili ary cruiser in American waters. The use of force with reference to Internment has not been thought of, The battleship Alabama was ordered to Hampton Roads for the purpose of "preserving the neutrality of the port." She will prevent any attack from be ing made upon tho Prinss Eltel Fried rich by British cruisers so long as the German ship is within the three-mile limit of the United States. In addition, she will forbid the de parture of the Prlnz Eltel Friodrlch immediately after a belligerent mer chant ship.
