The morning newspapers publish . in conspicuous places the official order denying to the International News Service further use of the official press bureau and the use of cables and all other facilities for transmission of news because of its "garbling of messages and breach of faith." The order appears under such headings as "No British News for Hearst." "News Made in America," and "American Agency's Garbling of Mes sages." The Daily Express says by way of comment: "The Daily Express repeatedly has called attention to anti-British lies printed in American newspapers con trolled by William R. Hearst, the New York American, the Chicago Examiner and similar Journals. This "news' is supplied by the International News Service, which is entirely a Hearst or ganization. Repeated Breaches Chanced. "These papers will not have a line of Hearst's "news' today. This action fol lows repeated breaches of faith by the Hearst organization. One of the latest instances was a message In the Chicago Examiner, headed 'London in Flames.' and purporting to describe a Zeppelin raid. It was never sent from London." In an extended editorial, the Times says: "The disciplinary measure taken against the International News Service is a satisfactory sign that the govern ment appreciates the importance of dealing drastically with lying news agencies. The tone of Mr. Hearst's newspapers is strongly anti-British, but the action of the government has not been inspired by any resentment at their opinion. It is in consequence of deliberate falsification of intelligence, of which the International News Serv ice has been repeatedly found guilty. "While we rejoice that our gov ernment has inflicted proper punish ment upon an unscrupulous news agency, we trust that the measures taken will not be regarded by the peo ple of this country as involving a slur upon the character and conscientious ness of the United States press as a whole. The reputation of the great majority of American journals for fair ness and honesty stands above reproach and it has again and again been vin dicated during the war. "We imagine, indeed, that the Amer ican Tress and public will be grateful to the British authorities for having punished wrongdoers and especially for having made public the grounds for the action taken. The dissemination of ac curate news is at all times a matter of high. Importance., We trust our au thorities will extend their laudable en ergy in other directions also and visit with similar punishment any other news agencies or journals which may be convicted of publishing garbled Intelligence from this country," Pro-German Stand Not Cause. The Chronicle says: "The government has taken a well Justified step in depriving the Inter national News Service of all telegraphic and mail facilities. The reason is not that Mr. Hearst's papers are pro-German, but that they have repeatedly published as coming from this country news which did not in fact come from it.". "These sham messages have been printed as messages from London. It is obvious that if such abuse were tolerated the censorship would become uf less than no value, since the Ameri can public would be given the impres sion that our censor had passed state ments which in fact had never been seen." The Westminster Gazette says the government "acted rightly in refusing further facilities for transmission of news from this country by the Inter national News Service," and after recounting the charges against the agency concludes: "Readers of Hearst papers will know in the future that telegrams purport ing to come from England have no origin there. We are heartily glad the government has inflicted . proper pun ishment for a very unscrupulous piece or worK. The Globe says the action of the Home Secretary will "be applauded by ail honest people." Inasmuch as the New Tork American, the) San Francisco Examiner and the Los Angeles Examiner are members of the Associated Press, the statement that the Hearst papers will not have a line of English news does not apply as to these three papers.

Vessel Reported Snnk by German Submarine Believed Confused With Norwegian Steamer Knud sen, Which Went Down. NEWPORT. R- I., Oct. 11. The Amer ican Navy is taking every precaution against the use of the American coast as a base of supplies for foreign, sub marines. All day today there was great activity among the destroyer flo tilla at the naval base here and when the destroyers McCall, Porter and Cummings went out on a mysterious mission this afternoon Rear-Admiral Knight, in command of this district, was asked if the boats were searching for a submarine base or looking, up some foreign submarine tender. "I cannot answer that," the Admiral stated, "but we are letting no report of submarine bases or tenders pass by without investigation." Shore leave among the men of the fleet has been greatly curtailed and each ship in active command virtually has a full complement always on hand. Many of the officers admitted tonight that they were running no chances of being caught short-handed as they were Suaday, when several destroyers went to sea with only a third of their men to rescue the crews and passengers of the ships sunk during the outburst of German submarine activity near the Nantucket lighthouse. So suddenly did the destroyers put to sea for their life-saving work that some of them felt the strain of being driven under forced draught, and the Ericsson, Balch and Cassin were laid up for minor repairs to their engines. In an effort to clear up the mystery concerning the British steamer King stonian. which was reported both by the Nantucket Shoals lightship and the crew of the torpedoed steamer Strath dene as having been destroyed Sunday. Captain David P. Studley. of the light ship, was asked to forward what infor mation 'he had in the matter. A radio message from him tonight said: "Report of sinking was received from Captain Wilson and crew of Strathdene when they boarded this vessel. Claimed they saw Kingstonian attacked and crew taking to boats. Crew of Chris tian Knudsen boarded lightship after pulling for hours, after having been sunk 30 miles south of the lightship." Naval men were inclined to think this indicated that the reported loss of the Kingstonian was an error. Radio conditions Sunday were not the best. they pointed out, and in the excitement of the moment it would have been easy for the Strathdene to have confused the Kingstonian with the Knudsen, owing to a similarity in their code signals. The Kingstonian is in the service of the British government and no record of her movements are made public City Council Adopts Initiative and Referendum. KLAMATH FALLS. Or.. Oct- 11. (Special.)
