Secretary Daniels Announces Capture
of IMsoners Off German Vessel, f
Washington. Nov. ..4. ? A German
aubniarine captured i-ecently by two
AmerUun destroyers was sent to the
bottom by members of her crew open
ing <wkK below, while their ship mates
#t<*xl on deck with bands raised In sig
nal of surrender. All of the crew were
taken prisoners.
One of the Germans wn? drowned
while being transferred .to a destroyer
and another "died. The latter Wto* hur
le<l with military honors.
Secretary Daniels announced the cap
ture and sinking of the submarine to
day in a formal statement, which made
no mention of prisoners nor of the rea
son for the boat sinking. The details
leaked out at the department latere,
but the Secretary would neither con
firm nor deny them, saying he had is
sued the statement in agreement with
tbe llritUh udinlialltj, am) could not
n?l<! to it.
There was a ro|H?rt in naval circles
that approximately forty uien, Includ
ing It ve officers, were taken off the #ub
inurine, If t Ills wore true, it in |>olnted

the cruiser type, known authentically
to be oi>eraied by tin* ticrmaus.

Mr. Iianiels' statement siijd a de
stroyer on patrol duty sighted a prel
kco|h' at too yards, headed for it and 1
dropped a depth bomb: that the sub-!
marine en me to t tic* surface soon after- i
ward and was tired upon by two de- ?
stroyers. a second having come up;!
that the submarine, apparently daniiig !
eel, did not return the tire and sank im - !
mediately after one destroyer had taken
her in tow.
it is now known that the submarine
rose hmruse her steering gear V as put
out of eomudssion by the explosion of
the depth bomb. As she appeared
above rtie water, to meet irun lire from
tlif destroyers at close range. most of
her erew clambered on deck and. raised
their hands. Moats put off from the
destroyer to take the prisoners on
hoard, and while this wan going on
some members, of the crew were busy
opening the sea cocks below. When
the prisoners were removed and h tow
line had been attached to the* ruptured
craft, the U-boat, tilling through the
open cocks, went down.
Naval ollieers assume that the' (Jcr
man sailor who died was wounded by
shell tire, though it Is understood that
Admiral Sims' report did not clear up
that point.
Italy Is Now Safe.
London, Nov. i!N. ? "It is now time
to say definitely that the crisis In Italy
has passed," said Major (Jen. F. B.
Maurice, chief director of military op
erations at tluw war office in an inter
view today.
"Our troops are now In sight of
Jerusalem." said. lien. Maurice, "hut
the Turks have had time to get up
reserves and make a stand and It is
probable that Jerusalem will not fall
without another definite battle.
1*0 Issue Warning to Russia.
London. Nov. 2K ? It is under consid
eration to Issue, in conjunction with
our allies, a reasoned statement for
the guidance and warning of the Rus
sians as to the serious results that
are llkelj to follow if a separate peace
Is concluded, said Ix>rd Robert Cecil,
the minister of blockade In the House
of Commons today.
