RE American' armed merchant ships
-really, sinking any (k-rman submarines?
If ' you care to believe the waterside
rumors and fo'castTe yarns, one of these
devilish marauders is rainmed or blown
up on every voyage across the Atlantic.
In saloons where merchant.' seamen
seek haven- and- pound tlie bar with
hairy-listsl strong liquors magnify the
tales, ang one- concludes that the kais-
er's undersea ileet must be wiped out by
now. The navy's records are less fanciful, strictly
tbe motto of the man from Mlssfpuri.
Here is the account of an action fought by a
cargo steamer which leaves no room for (joubt
that one very -busy U-boat was suddenly removed
fiom the active list of the lnip.e.r:iil German navy.
It Is advisable to omit thy naino of the chief boat-
swain's matg who commanded flut-guu crews. He
was promoted to warrant rank as a reward for
the feat and is now stationed irshore-; but lie may
go to sea "agjiln In charge of another lot of gun-
ners, and if he should be taken prisoner the enemy
would not love_him for what lie did to a missing
submarine. Tir his ofiieful report he states:
\V eat-her hazy. Saw a 'Sttbniariire tiring on a
topsail schoon-Jr, Which shortly aft or blow tip.
Changed course to bring the .submarine (in our
starboard beam about 5.000 yards distant and lost
"1111,l'f...luT....In.h:I/. (.'o.ntinuea.iiu. this cuurst; for
two hours and then resumed our original course.'
jVt 2.55 p'.'%i. the submarine appeared mit of the
Jiaze -at-2,500 yttriis.on _our Starboard lu-am. She
immediately opened fire. We changed course to
tiling her three points on the starboard Quarter
and returned the ttr.o. _ -
'"The" .eiigagerneift lasted '35 niiiiutos, during
which'time the submarine fired, about 40 shots,
scoring one hit under our port counter a foot from
the water, and causing a leak. We fired 27 shots.
The twenty-sixth shot was seen to hit her just
forward of the forward gun, and a cloud of flame
-ttad' dark gray wmikr burst -frniir Ihe Itaieliw:—"ttitc
crew of the subnCiirine left the gun and rail aft.
"Almost lhstjiully the Mibh-iuj'hie sank, bow tirst,
the stern lifting iiigli out of Jhe water,'so that the
propeHers could be seen revolving. '1'he steamer
was'leaking and temporary repairs were made by
the - crew." . " ^
™~°Whcn the ship reached lier foreign-p«rt of des-
tination aifil"Teprrrtcd tile victory an ofliciai in
quiry was ordered by the French government. A
naval lieutenant conducted li with great care and
confirmed the verdict of the American gunners,
the steamer fought wit It the American Hag (lying,
lie stated in his written opinion, firing 27
ludf an hour. The 'distance increased about 1.00
meters for each shot. The twenty-sixth shot ex-
ploded, producing [t thick black smoke, which was
visible ft) nil op shipboard. Stic.'i ,an explosion
must have been 'protfnc'ed''ifrfTTf)*3Hl«liarl'U«-'itsetft-
He spid, Ih summing tip the evidence:.
"The result of. the inquiry Is that tlii^'fight Imis
been -very well conducted and that the men have
.shown a very fine spirit, doing honor to the Anier-
b.-!H>;n!ivy.-!;l'lie<,oii<'liisi<)nitiayl)edi'awiitliat-the
submarine Was hit and probably sunk."
This was first-class shooting, the submarine
steadily drawing away until' when struck she .was
5,01)0 yards, and more,"or three land miles from
the steamer. Binoculars and telescope sights en-
^ttbipd-.the,.,gnn'nera io_dlstingnisiv_.he.c_...with-.-X.lear-_
ness and to. .note Hie effects of the shell which
ended her wretched career. It was her command-
er's Intention to move beyond runge and continue
the action on the chance that he had the bigger
gtins, but he miscalculated, and paid, the price.
It seemed a cruel slant of fortune that this
American stettmer, which so brilliantly bagged a
aubhiaHlie, shbQid hfi'Ve act'Ideatttllj1 burned al aea
on her next voyage. There was no time to stretch
hose or muster the crew. Ablaze in an Instant,
"she was one vast* furnace while the men raced for
the boats with death at their heels. All hands got
away, including the navy giinners, and their cruise
in open iioats was made without severe suffering.
It was nil in the day's work.
Very similar,XI''tliis successful encounter was
the'.adventure oj? the steamer Silver Shell. In this

b^ing hit."
There was precious little room to spare in this
adventure, but it was surpassed by a liner, for-
merly a favorite ship among Atlantic pilgrims, now
carrying cargoes to the allies. A blanket of fog
covered the sea In the early morning. It lifted a
trifle, and a very much surprised 'submarine popped,
up dead ahead of the lunging prow. / She let fly a
torpedo in a wild flurry, at the steamer's side with-
out exploding. A moment later the submarine
itself went buniplng^and scraping along the other
side oi the vessel, whose officers, sailors, and gun-
ners stared -straight down at it and uttered the
deep and hearty curses' of the sea. They would
have swapped their souls for a few bombs to drop
In remembrance. Grimy stokers poked their heads
through tlie open ports and spat at the conning
tower, or passionately scrambled for lumps of coal
and slice bars to heave at the blankety-blank thing.
Then the fog swallowed it up and the incident was
closed.
For hard fighting and the dogged courage that
we rightly ascribe to the men of the American
navy, the story of the Moreni and Chief Petty Offi-
cer Andrew Copassaki, commanding the armed
guard, is one of those which shines undiinmed in
defeat. German sailors cheered him and .his men
from the d'Cclt of a submarine when he finished
- -wi th -bi-s -ship-on -ftpo-and- -.t:ar«o. of-gasollne ahUMi-
to blow him to kingdom come. He was made a war-
runt officer for devotion to duty and determination
to tight as long as sb-e-iloat-ed,----A-sumtna-ry—of lils.
rfeport to the navy department was given out short-
ly after it was received.
- For 'wnntoii"brutrtlity there is the report, of the
loss of tbe American. schooner Childe Itarold off
the French coast.'. Unadorned, the'episode Is thus
described :* '•
"At daybreak an object "reported': by the male
was believed to be the square sails of a ship hull
down. The glasses showed it to be the superstruc-
fure of"Hrsnbmnrlne"one mile away. ("The- Childe
Harold was unarmed.) The submarine opened
fire, and the shells ripped through the schooner's
hull and.sails. The master ordered the crew Into
the motorlaunch and lowered away. This was
plainly visible to the submarine, which had come
iiiiicii...ni-:ii:i!i: aim «wntin.u« dw,.
dently at the-boat in tlie water, which escaped be-'
ing hit. The captain and his crew were ordered
aboard the submarine and noticed ttint the cap
ribbons- of tbe sailors bore the letter 'U-19' and
'11-17.'",Two of tlie officers spoke excellent English,
and Captain. Byrne of the schooner.informed them
that the firing was totally unnecessary and that
he had not expected such dastardly treatment frona
; any white mem .
"The conversation developed the fact that the
commander of the subumrine knew tbe date of sail-
the*'-4U+W4 fc'-Harold-fwte-aB" American port-
aiid was on the lookout for lier. - He bad also re-
ceived Information of the departure of. the four-
master Alicia B. Crosby and the three-master A'. V.
Sherman on the same date, all three vessels liav
•ing passed out. to sea together. He wanted to
know where the other schooners were. According
to Ills schedule" they should have shown up by this
time.
"The Germans' looted the Childe Harold and
seemed very hungry. They had only coffee and
dry bread for breakfast aboard the submarine.
AFter fetching" ail the stores in the launch, they
put the captain and his crew In tbe boat again,
which was stove and half full of water. The
sghooner was set on Are. Her people were res-
- cued by a steamer. Captain Byrne Is anxious to
try It again."

This is precisely as it should be, bli'.-ji ckets and
' merchant seamen standing together, <tijjating the
enemy as one intrepid American civ-w, and- tlie

of the skipper. Chief Gunner Clark had trte honor
to report to the navy' department:
"As the .'submarine displayed no flag i)j>d was

whieh was then about 7,000 yards avvsy, replied

"Our last two shells seem to have hit the sub-

enemy was then about 900 yards from the ship

"The torpedo was running straight, but appar-
