When, however, I considered the grave crisis that confronts the world in which my own country Is playing so important a Part, and realized that what 1 knew of the Kaiser might prove of some value to my country. I concluded that my patriotic duty was paramount and rose superior to any of the ordinary demands of professional ethics.

BEACH CROWD SEES ATTACK Summer Resorters Entertained Hour and Half With One sided Battle. ORLEANS, Mass., July " 21. A shell from a German submarine landed today within 100 yards of the shore here. This took place in the course of a one-sided fight between a giant U-boat and a tug and its tow of four barges. Several residents reported shells falling on shore, but none of these stories could be verified. The near est shell struck, so far as known. within 100 yards of the beach in Nau set harbor. U-Boat of Largest Type. Most of those on board the vesseli attacked and fishermen on shore; agreed that the submarine was 400 feet long. The submarine attacked the tu Perth Amboy, of the Lehigh Valley Railroad, and her jtour barges three miles off this town on the southeast ern elbow of Cape Cod at 10:30 A. M. today. . The one-sided battle lasted an hour and a half. The tug was burned to the water's edge by shell fire. The barges were sunk by gun fire. The barges were bound from Glou cester for New York and one was loaded with stone. Three Men Wounded. Of the 41 persons, including three women and five children on board, three men, Captain Charles Ainslie, of the barge Lansford, and John Bo lovich and John Vitz, Austrian mem bers of the tug crew, were wounded. Bolovich will probably lose an arm. Vitz had one hand blown off. Captain Ainslie was wounded in both arms by shrapnel. The attack was witnessed by large crowds of natives and Summer visi tors who had flocked to the cape for the week-end, seeking relief from the heat wave. German Marksmanship Bad. All accounts agreed that the subma rine's ' shooting , was very bad. Her torpedo work was r.o better. Accord ing to Captain Ainslie she launched three torpedoes at the tug and all went wild. ' The attack was made only a few t miles from the naval aviation station at Chatham. Three seaplanes attacked the raider with bombs. The fire was returned but the U-boat submerged and was last seen heading south. Raid Profits Light. Tonight the tug was still afloat and it was thought she could be saved. The net result of the raid was the sinking of barges valued in the aggre gate at $90,000", and the serious dam aging of a tug valued at $100,000, at the expenditure oi" three torpedoes which it is estimated cost the German Concluded on Page 5.
