On Tuesday morning they carried out a local attack south of Conevres-et-Valsery, which enabl- ed them to improve their positions. In this about 100 prisoners and some

machine guns were taken.

Such are the captions over the to the ll-boat and sho sat in a depth

ever told as a fact. That this story is actual fact is beyond doubt. Per- haps in dry matter of fact style of writing ns it reaches me it is more impressive than if related by a vivid pen. So I send it _to you untouched

:as it appears in the Times this morn- ng.

From .information which reached a

neutral correspondent from three dis- tinct sources it is possible to recon-_ struct the events connected with tbe' destruction- -of a U-boat-one of the largest' and most recent type ol Ger- man slllibtarlnes. onebf the last ves- sels to leave Zeebru'gge before that harbor was bottled up by Vice Ad- miral Sir Roger Keyes forces, April 24th last. The story of this partic- ular vessel which sunk after striking a mine is one of the most grim nar- ratives yet told in connection with the war.

Out of the crew of forty odd, only

two survived on reaching the surface after a struggle with death for about one hour and a half twenty fntboms (120 feet) below the surface, where the U-boat had foundered after en- countering a mine. Several of the crew committed suicide in the sub- marine, having lost all hope of leav- ing the boat alive.

OFFICERS SEEK EXCITEMENT

The U-boat was commanded by one of the most expert men in the Gcr` man submarine service who had re- ceived decorations. The vessel had been recently retltted and was com- plete with the latest appliances. The engineer-ofllcer was also a highly skilled man, thoroughly conversant with the vessel. While for some time past it had been impossible to obtain volunteers for lower ratings on Ger- man submarines, men are now being. drafted rapidly and automatically from the surface craft into the sub- mersible craft service. There is no lack of young officers, who are anxious to exchange the dull life of the Ger- man battleship in consequence oi these craft seldom taking sea exer- cise let alone giving battle, for some exciting experiences hunting allied nnd neutra shipping com-

and engineer took their places in the conning towers. An endeavor was made to open one of the torpedo bat- ches, but outside the pressure proved too great.

THE CRITICAL MOMENT

The doors remained immovable. in

side the submarine as the precious minutes passed the water mounted higher and higher, creeping slowly overtbo men's ieet.tben mounting up their legs. The nerves of all were strongly tried-the hatches still would not move. Fresh sources of danger now arose for the sen water pcntrat sd the voice tubes in the control room and, mixing with thc chemicals in tbl accumulators, set up a poisonous gas. so the imprisoned mcn were faced with drowning and also suffocation by chemical fumes. Urged on by their comrades the mon nearest the batch tried again and again to release it, then' tired out, they gave way to oth- 'ers who fared no better. Breathing by now had become exceedingly di|'- ilcult for tho addition ol' poisonous gas to the rising wafer sides, increas- ul the presaurc of air in the grauiual- ly contracting spucc lu ihc l`or\vard part of the vessel io a very great dos- tiny. ,

So terrible had the conditions be-

come that some of the men were ap- parently beginning to lose their rea- son. Their cries urging on to open the batch were terrible, but the doors re- mained immovable as though held 'iown by a hand inexorable- At last the situation became too much for rome men who clsmorcd above the lncomdng water~whicb by this time lad reached the height of nearly two 'eet. Denser became the air. Sud- leniy some of them could hold out nc onger and stuffing their ears, nostrils md mouths with cotton they throw bemselves headlong into the water o die. One man tried to shoot bim- tolf with a revolver, but it missed ire and he hurled it into _the bottom if tl\e ship and be himself followed liter. Hardly had this occurred than ine of the crew succeeded in forcing in aperaturo in one of the torpedo :bombers and us the mass oi' water ncreased the air pressure at last bo- :ame sullicient to enable tbom to force open the forward liotcltcs nnti the courting tower batch. As n rule the crews of German submarines are pro- vided with taucbrottcr or life saving woistconts of special design ilttcd with a supply of oxygen, which meh _ire able to inhulo through u. mouth- piece. Such a device might probably have saved n. number of livos bad it ‘teen at hand`on this occasion, but not a single tauchretter was available in this boat. lt was impossible also to make use of the patent buoy which is floated on the surface to which ls attached u number of ropes which as- list the escaping men on the surface.

Men who are still alive escaped brough the hatch only to so tl\i‘0\1iih mother terrible ordeal. Air pressure n the U-boat had become so intense hat the great majority of Germans could 'not keep their mouths closed. Zompressed air shot them like human 'orpedoes to the surface and scarcely tad they reached the sea level than he pressure of the air burst - their 'ungs and with terrible cries some wenty of them sank like stones.

Unofficial reports from Rome ex.

The present situation is far from satisfactory on the upper Piavu, and the Italians will have to use their reserves freely to prevent tho Austrians from continuing their progress northward along the welt bank of the river from Clano.

The number of prisoners taken by

the Austrians since the battle began on Thursday is now stated to be 30,- 000.
