WAR MOVES EXPLAINED BY J. W. T. MASON Former London Correspondent for the United '; New York, Oct. 1. The destruction of the British cruiser iawke by one of the kaiser's submarines means a gain to the Germans in nothing more than morale. From the point of view of sea power the vessel's destruction was of no im portance, it had no offensive strength, and being f years, old, soon would have been retired. Nevertheless, the incident marked a ' success for a German submarine a suocess which has a value quite apart .from the extent of the actual loss in flicted on the British. The German navy has never had an opportunity to .demonstrate Its fitness an if skill, and ' the efficiency of its officers under con ditions of actual warfare was probably . an unknown quantity to the Germans themselves, as well as to the rest of the world, PUQh. victories under the ee will Vive confidence to the Ger man sailors and undoubtedly will stir them to greater effort. In this lies the possibility ef an - ultimate, sweeping naval victory foe the British. . The destruction ef a few more minor vessels by the' .kaiser's submarines may arouse German naval commanders to such a pitch of enthusiasm as to rpsu.lt in a desperate attempt to drive the British from the seas. - The German battle fleet may venture Northwest News Glendale Home Burned. Florence, Or Oct 16.-The home of R. A. Lowe, Glendale, burned to the ground early Wednesday morning. The fire was discovered between 12 and 1 O'clock and was already under head way.

Crawford, despite his large personal following in Lane county, ree'eived only 389. Crawford carried Douglas county as his home Is In Roseburg, and the coun ty has always given him a big vote, but Withycombe, thanks to the Booth Influence, gave him a close run. Craw ford had 93 votes and Withycombe 928. Not another one of the guber natorial candidates approached these figures. Geer, who came next, had only' 231, Booth's brother lives io Roseburg and the holdings of the Booth-Kelly Lumber company in Doug las county are very large. But one of the. most noteworthy re sults was in Multnomah county, where Withycombe was without any personal following, and where he was little known. Although four of his competi tors were residents of Portland, he took third place with f9 5 4 votes. Moser was first with 8538, and Carter second with 5408. Withyeombe's surprisingly large vote In this county Is attributable to the work of the Booth organization and the cooperation of ex-Mayor Rush light, The close relations existing be tween Rushlight and George Kelly, R. A. Booth's partner, are well known. Rushlight was deeply interested in the success pf the Oreg-onian-News conspiracy, and n carrying out Booth's wishes. He haa a good political or. gapisation, and it was used with effect. Wlthyoombe was nominated and tha Oregonian a la to was complete, for the chosen candidates for senator, gover nor, congressman, sheriff and Multno mah county legislators bad all won in the primary. All that remains now is to ohoke the slate down the throats of the vot ers on November 3. Sacramento Finally Quits San Francisco Converted German steamer, Suspected Of Violating VeutrsUty Xws, Is Permitted to Ball. San Francisco, Qct. iay-After en countering various delays, the steam ship Sacramento, formerly the German ship Alexandria, was steaming out to sea today. The vessel cleared y ester day under the American flag for Val paraiso, but was overtaken off Point Bonits, and ordered back to quarantine by orders of Judge c, l. Brown, acting collector of , the port, who had heard of alleged suspicious movements by the steamer, and decided they should bo investigated, suspicion was aroused when, instead of heading straight out to sea the Sacramento steamed over toward Raceoon straits and after wait there of an hour, finally neaded tor tne tioiaen uate. Captain Anderson oxpUUnod that he was hardly underway before one of his pollers became overheated and the qth era wouldn't heat at aiL Then the en gines refused to do their duty, he said, and the ship was stopped. , Judge Brown accepted this explanation and the Sacramento was allowed to depart. ..I ,race engagement with Qreat Britain's greatly superior Such a fight. If -Germany won, would win the war for her. But the chances against this are much heavier than the two to ope su periority of the British fleet. One heavyweight prtuefighter attacked by two others, when all are In first class condition, has far less than one enanee In three of winning. At the same time the possibility of success does exist. This possibility undoubtedly will bo increased in imagination among Ger. man sailors by the feats of their sub marines. If the Teutonic warenlas d from their harbors of safety to attempt the destruction of tho British navy, perhaps the most important factor in deciding the result will bo tha psycho logical effect Of these submarine raids ' The five British warships which the submarines have sunk were cruisers of no first line strength. The German naval strategists' chief aim ia to work destruction among the British first lino Units. And how 'effective the anhma. line will prove in an open fieM only time can telL Besides the British sub. marinea are muek more numerous than the German.

The seus and Gibraltar was doing patrol duty at the time of the disaster. From the Theseus and the Gibraltar the German submarine was seen just as It dived, and the cruisers steed by awaiting its appearance. Whether or not It was also sighted from the Hawk was not known, but it was evident that it was close up, for the second torpedo it discharged did Its work well, completely shatter ing the cruiser. A previous torpeao was said to have been directed seainst the The seus but to have missed its target. In accordance with the admiralty's order that warships attacked by sub marines are to consider then' own safety, first, the Theseus and Gibral tar made no Immediate attempt to help the Ha wile's crew, but steamed away and remained at a distance until con vinced that they were in bo further danger.
