According to the advices re
ceived here from the American
embassy at London today the tes-l
cimony of the Americans shows;
|conclusively that the U boat at-'
tacked the steamer without warn-'
jing by firing shells from a short
j distance, nearly all of which j
'struck the Englishman. The an-'
nouncement that the submarine
first fired upon the vessel farther j
Confuses the situation jand it is
probable that the administration
will take no further action until
the full details are to hand. The
I officials admit that the submarine
'situation is again assuming a con
lilition of extreme gravity.
