A' successful air raid against German hydroplanes and naval forcea at Keebruggo was announced In an admlrahy statement today. Yesterday, It waa declared, naval aeroplanes dropped bombs over the seaplane sheds at the Relgtan port, now held by the Germans, and also, on German destroyers anchored alongside th mole, ' A destroyer was hit and the sheds damaged by the bombs. . ' . i m TO-DAY 'From Your Hardware or Grocery Dealer V WAS SUBMARINED , London, Nov. !3.--Vlth new de tails of the sinking of th Britannic received, making It appear certain the greatest British shin afloat was the victim ot a Teutonlo submarine, press and public alike today united in bitter condemnation of what was termed another example ot German "frlghtfulness." ;. . I One belief which found a number' ot supporter was that Germany Is starting out on a new; campaign of i 'rightfulness." Frequent reports from Germany 'have indicated con sideration by the government of re sumption of an unlimited submarine warfare. The deportation ot Belgian working men already la being car ried out, despite Intercessions , by most of the neutral nations. Third comes yesterday's torpedoing of the British hospital ship. Itras pointed out here today that there oould to no mistaking th char acter of tbe Britannic. No submar ine commander 'could' have (ailed io Identity th ship, not only by th fact that she carried th usual hospital emblem, but because she was the big gest ship of her kind In the world. That the vessel was, therefore, the victim of a delfrerate attackwas the verdict here. Th admiralty did not add any thing to its formal statement of yes terday that the great ship waa sunk by a mine or a torpedo, with a loss Ot AO lives, Athena dispatches, how ever, seemed to dispose of all donbt that th -hug ship had been destroy ed by anything but a torpedo. Con sidering the large number aboard at the time, wonder Is expressed at the small mortality list. The Jliltannlc, however, was known to. be one of the most thoroughly equipped ot all pas senger liners. Accounts differ as to the number the Brltannlo had aboard, or In which direction she waa proceeding when the' explosion-bocurred. '"' ,The admiralty was silent today, either In confirmation flr denial of a detailed atory from Athens,' printed in the Dally Chronicle, asserting that two Teutonlo submarines lay In wait (or the Britannic and that both may have fired torpedoes from opposite sldea of the giant vessel. One of theee, the message said, missed its mark, but the other struck. Survlvora were landed at varloua Greek cities.

Vienna will not parade her sorrow nor welcome in marking formal observance of the funeral of Emperor Fran Jonof and, th assumption of the throne of hi Successor. Charlea Prancln .Imr,b. . Dispatches from Vienna indicated to day that the departure would be . mad from the rigidly formal and richly ceremonial customs which heretofore have marked the passing of on sovereign sod the amending of the throne by another. Th nail n . m t.nnM - pOT.. VI WRI Will, UMI1JI even the pall of sorrow. . The funeral date hss not ' ben fixed. Vienna was literally wrapped In a shroud today. The city's mourn ing for those lost In the war was In tensified by. the new and . universal -sorrow for the late ruler. Mingling with the half-masted na tional colors were great streamers of black from the great column or the state buildings. The emperor's body will lie In state at the Hofuurg the linimrlal palace in Vienna a building the aged emperor never liked and which he never occupied except on formal state occasions, preferring the beau- tiful Schoenbronn palace In Scboen brunn park, where he waa. born. ' , From the Mofbnrg tbe late sover eign's body will be carried through Vienna's narrow streets three short blocks to the Church of tbe Capuchins for interment Ordinarily this fun eral parade would have beep a cere monial full of pomp and color but Vienna dispatches today indicated that on this occasion the cortege and Its escorts would be of tbe simplest possible form. ' - The emperor bad been failing for months. Age was rapidly .telling on him by his low resistance to colds. The slightest draft affected him. A troublesome cough hung on despite efforts ot his physicians. His vitality was sapped. He frequently fell asleep at his desk and roused himself with an effort. But to the very last the aged emperor kept up his . work, starting at 3:30 a. m., and being at his desk shortly after 4 o'clock. He left the palace invariably tf the weather was Hue about noon and. took a short . walk In Schoenbrunn park. , If It was Inclement, be exer cised In the glass covered barracks tike structure' connected to Schoen bronn palace. " '"The ceremonial of Investitude or Archduke Charles Francis Joseph robably will fee postponed. "He si ready has assumed the reins of sov ereignty, automatically. The new emperor has literally been crammed" during the past two years In preparation for his kingly duties. The Archduke Francis Ferdinand, assassinated at Serajevo, had gone through years ot study to fit him for the crown. But Charles Francis on whom his death placed the succession, was totally unprepared. Therefore, he was Immediately put through a course of study. 'Eight months ago, it was announced that Count von Berchtold, former foreign minister. bad been named grand master ot ceremonies to the new heir-apparent. The lengthy title was merely design ed to conceal the fact that von Berch told, acknowledged one of the em pire's strongest and wisest statesmen, had been assigned to tutor the future emperor in statecraft.
