Groat, (United Press Staff Correspondent.) Washington, June 12. An American coast patrol vessel has had one battle from a German U-boat rgidor. From an unquestionable sourco to day came this fact, together with tho fact that the navy has had a mass of reports from patrol commanders. None of these has been made public. Secrotary Daniels has taken the position that only absolutely authen ticated cases of sinking or capture will be announced. But the United Press Is in position V announce that one of the many re ports indicates beyond a doubt that a patrol vessel fired on a submarine and dropped depth bombs about her. The affect can only be conjectured. A second ease, not quite so clear cut, yet believed by some officials to bo authentic, is also on record. Neither of the above mentioned in cidents includes the case in which a United Htatos destroyer interrupted a U-boat ia its attempt to sink the Badiololne. , Both the eases cited occurred since then, bu have been kept secret up to today. Many naval districts reports have come in since the raiders first ap peared, but the navy has persistently denied that it ha-3 information concern ing the submarine situation other than what it announced. This was illustrated a few days ago when the department had news of tho Vinland sinking all day, denied it and only announced the sinking at night after the crow had landed. Among the strange occurrences noted by the patrol roports was that of a hydroplano, which dropped depth bombs on a supposed submarine. (Submarines can be seen a consider able distance below the water by a hydroplane.) Later, however, it developed that the supposed U-boat target was a whalo. THINK THEEE DESTROYED.

In regard to the very important ques tion as to whether the young men wh& have just registered can volunteer in any service. J. E. Adanife, navy recruit ing officer tod-ay received the following telegram: "Provost marshal general has informed Portland branch that new tegistrants may enlist in the navy upon securing usual certificate from their lo cal board, inasmuch as new registrants have not been classified, they are toot within the tuirent quota until classifi cation and thero is no reason why such certificates should not e iS3Ued on re quest." There will be no riot call at 7:30 p. m.' Friday evening nor will the firq alarm sound at that hour Id call out all members of the Oregon Guard in Salem. On account of that being the evening of the graduation of the high ichool class and also of Flag day ex ercieves 6f the Elks lodge, it , wae thought best to indefinitely postpone the riot call when all members of the three companies of Oregon Guards were te be called suddenly to duty and as signed to special guard duty. o Word was received in the city this af tornoon that Tom Fennell a hop grow er of Independence had committed sui( cide by drowning. According to thj information as told by Mr. Cooper who witnessed the tragedy, Mr. F.ennell was in a small boat rowing at a distance f.om the ferry. Suddenly he procured a (.ham, wrapped it carefully around his neck and jumped into the river. was ot such a distance from ibo ferry that he was dead before help arrived The body was secured as one end of the chain was attached t the boat. It is understood that Mr. Fennell has had considerable trouble of late and was in joor health.

A. HaU has been appointed bv Governor Withycoinbe as member otf the general stair or tne oi-ato ui ui gon. The general staff consists of Lieu tenant Col. John M. Williams, adjutant general, Col. W. C. North, commanding First Regiment, Oregon Guard, Major Hibbard of Multnomah County Home Guard, Major A. A. Hall, commanding 2nd Battalion Oregon Guard, and Cap tain James, assistant to the adjutant general. The general staff has charge of all military activities in tho state of Oregon together with such duties as ar assignsd to it by the federal govern ment. In compiling a list of tha amount sub scribed for the three Liberty loans by all th counties of tho state, Marion county is figured out as having raised 82 per cent or its quota, tne lowest county percentage in the state. The quota for Marion county for the three loans amounted to $2,589,000, while the siim subscribed in tjie three loans fig ures 2,12O,100. The quota of a eounty i. based on the amount of its bank de posits and the qnota given Marion has been somewhat out of proportion irom the fact that the banks have stat.? money on deposit and then there is money here in the banks from other counties especially Polk. .
