Pacific News Service.
UOMK, July 29. An admiralty an
nouncement today states that the Ital
ian-American liner de Italia was at- j
tacked by a hostile submarine whole
proceeding to New York with a large j
list of passengers, yesterday and onls
escaped through the quick action ol
its officers in opening lire on the diver
which was compelled to sink to escape
destruction. The report declares that |
escape of vessel was providential as |
submarine, which was evidently lying j
in wait, was almost within torpedo
range before its presence was known
to the officers. After opening lire tin
vessel fled at top speed and success
fully eluded its pursuer. At last ac -
counts the steamer was proceeding to
its destination in safety.

FEDERAL COURT ORDERS AP
PAM RETURNED TO BRITISH
Pacific News Service.
NORFOLK. July 29. The federal
court engaged i.i determining t
status of the BrilLl steamer Apr»ain,
whieu "a « eapttu : ami brotigV* i >
Newport News by the German raider.
\locwi in I’Vhrunry. has deeided that
the vessel is not a prize of war and
has ordered her return to the British
owners. The decision provokes a
curious complication owing to tin*
ruling of tin* state department that
the vessel was a legitimate prize of
war and could be held as such by Ger
many. The decision of the federal
court is the result of a suit brought
by the agents of tin* British owners
who took exception to the state d#*
partnient ruling. The case must now
go to the supreme court for final de
cision on the order of the state depart
