MORE SHIPS TORPEDOED. Attacked Without WarningAmericans On Board. Washington, October 30: ? A cablegram frjm United States Consul Frost at Queestown, received today by the State Department,has brought this country face to face with the possibility of a reopening of the whole submarine issue with Germany, j Consul Frost reported there were seven Americans aboard the British j freighter Rowanmore, sunk after; trying to escape from a German submarine 140 miles off Cape Clear. Open boats in which the refugees were leaving the ship were shelled by the submarine, according to the consul's preliminary report. The State Department is awaiting tonight a more complete report. It is stated that if it should prove true that Americans were shelled in the boats in which they were leaving the Rowanmore, the incident might become very serious, in spite of the fact apparently that there were no casualties. A parallel case is that of the Ancona, which was shelled under similar circumstances by an Austrian suDmarine. Austria was ueuuuuceu in the severest terms for this act and immediate apologies and the punishment of the submarine commander were demanded by the United States Government. Austria apologized and promised to punish the commander. State Department officials say the Rowanmore case may become a test, of the sincerity of the assurances of Germany after the Sussex incident that she would conduct her submarine warfare in accordance with the rules laid down by the United States.
