TORPEDOES BRITISH VESSEL CHAMBANK IN THE IRISH SEA FOUR OF CREW WERE KILLED Battles on the Continent Continue With Ever Increasing In tensity FILE BRIEFS IN FRANK'S APPEAL From Georgia Federal Court's Re fusal to Release Him in Habeas Corpus Proceedings (By Ahsorintcd PrcM.) LONDON. Fob. 20.?(10:10 p. m.) ? A German submarine appeared in the Irish Sea early today and torpedoed without notice the British coaninc: steamer Cam bank, of 440 tons regis ter. Three of the crew were killed and a fourth was drowned while the men were taking to the boats. The remainder or the crew and pilot, 20 in all. were saved. One or the men in describing the experience of the Cambank, said: "We were bound from Huelva. Spain, for Liverpool with a .cargo of copper. When outsido of Aralwych, on the north coast of Wales, we took aboard a pilot. We had gathered speed when a periscope was observed about 200 yards away. The engines were reversed, but while the vessel was turning the-submarine discharged a torpedo which struck us amidships. 'We launched the life-boats and managed to pull clear before the Cam. bank sank. We had no time to save anything and most of us were scantily clad and much exhausted when a boat took up in charge and towed us into Amlwych harbor." . . A _steamer? which., has arrived., here reported'- that she had been warned by the Cambank; that there was a sub marine it) the- vicinity. She at once put on full steam and. being a speedy vessel, reached port safely. This was the only incident con nected willi the German submarine blockade of the British Isles report ed during the day. It came about the time that the Anglo-French fleet was bombarding the Dardanelles forts and while the Russians, according to a.telegram from Petrograd, were defeating the Germans at Ossowetz, Poland, and driving back to the fron tier the troops which had attacked the fortress. Except for the loss of life, the sink ing or the Cambank was not In itself a serious matter, but the presence of a German submarine near the route which tho Atlantic liners take to and from' Liverpool and along which many steamers pass daily, 1b certain to cause uneasiness. While this not not the first time that a hostile submarine has been ! in these waters, the last one to visit them gavo, tlu crews of three' ships which sank an opportunity to leave ..the vessels before sinking them. The Cambank apparently had slow . ed -down to pick up her Liverpool . pilot when she was observed by the submarine and torpedoed. While the sinking of this steamer, can, however, raise no diplomatic problems, a sef Ioub situation may arise out of the torpedoing of the Norwegian tank steamer Bel rid go; which, according to tho British-admiralty, was struck by a torpedo off Folkestone. - The Norwegian, foreign office has ordered the Norwegian Consulate, at London to mako an immediate inves tigation and report, with the object, it is ^2S?^L^L?S^S^?l roP-r?g??**~ (Continued ou Page FightT" (By A?soclntrd Tress.)

UNITED STATES WILL NOT REPLY TO EITHER BRITISH OR GERMAN NOTES ALREADY ENOUGH HAS BEEN SAID Opinion Prevails Among Official? American Note Has Had Its Desired Effect (P.v A.wH-jaW*d Picss.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.?The Unit-] cd States probably will make un reply ?ur the present at least, to either the British or German notes regarding the use of the Americau ling on for eign vessels and the dangers to neu tral shipping in the naval war zone but will stand firmly on its warning against destruction of American lives or vessels. Many officials who know the situa tion expect some further move only in event of an overt act. This was indicated in high official quarters to day. In the case of the note to Great Britain objecting to any general use of the American flag by British ves- 1 sels, the communication from Eng land was not regarded as altering the original warning of the United States against the measure of responsibility 1 which would seem to be imposed on England if any American vessels or lives were lost as a result of such general practice. The American government already, it was point.nl out, has stated in em phatic language that Germany would be held to "strict accountability" for any loss of American vessels "or lives" and t?i?s warning is construed by administration officials to- be suf ficiently broad also to cover any in Juryr*to. American citizens aboard belligerent vessels. The arguments in both the British and German communications charging violations of the rules of International law and warfare, It Is held by Ameri can government officials, arc of no concern to the United States. . The breaking down of the doctrines of in ternational law as between belliger ents docs not, in the view of high officials hero., effect the status of thoso rules as between the United States and Great Britain and Germany with whom this country is at peace. There is every prospect that the long British note replying to thn American protest of December 28, on the subject of contraband will bring forth a rejoinder from the United Slates. .The state department of late has received comparatively tew com plaints of detentions and seizure and the opinion prevails among officials that the American note has had its desired effect. As for the note which Great Britain sent In the case of the American steamer Wilhelmina,' bound for Ger many with a cargo of foodstuffs, now held by the British prize court, the state department will enter Into no further correspondence on the subject, awaiting the decision of the prize court before making diplomatic rep resentations. The decisions of the court is expected, however, to be made within a reasonable length of time and if, in the opinion of the state depart ment, there Is a. denial of Justice to' the Amer tea ii owners, n protest will bo entered.

WASHINGTON, Fob. 20.?Renewed complaints were made today to the State department In behalf of the Ger man and AuEtito-Hungarian embas sies that submurines were being built in the United States and shipped In sections to Canada for reshipment to England. Secretary Bryan promised an ofllclal Investigation. Charles M. Schwab, president of the Bethlehem Steel company and owner of the Union Iron Works, is said to have cancelled "imllar contracts with the British government several months ago after a conference with Secretary Bryan, on the theory that they constituted a violation of neutrality. Naval oflicers detailed at the var ious private yards where contracts for the United States government are being executed recently reported to Secretary Daniels that the Union Iron Works of Snn Francisco and the Fore River Shipbuilding Company of Qulncy. Mass., were building ten sub marines each in addition to those they have under eonttruetlon for by Great Britain before the outbreag of hostilities and could not be deliver ed until the was was over. The Inspectors reported that uone nf these boats could be completed for several months and that none of their component parts had been shipped by the" builders. So far as the o?lcials here know, no- breach of the agreement between Mr. Schwnb and the government Is contemplated, but it wub made evi dent that notwithstanding the legal opinion secured by the steel company aflirmlng Its right to ship parts of war vessels ?o belligerents, the gov ernment will * not permit this to be.
