ANCIENT CITY TAKEN
BRITISH FORCE TURKS TO SUR-
RENDER DAMASCUS.
Town Called Key"to Syria and All of
Palestine Known In Days of
Abraham.
London Oct. !. Damascus, the capi
tal of Syria, was occupied by General
Allenby's forces Tuesday morning, ac
cording to an olllclal statement Issued
by the British war otllce.
Damascus Is considered the key to
Syria and Palestine. Prol. Ulcnura
Gotthell of Columbia university, for
merly a member of the school of arch
aeology at Jerusalem, In a recent lnter
iew said: "The key to Syria and Pal
estine Is the city of Damascus. He
who possesses It holds-the 'open se
same' to the country to the south, the
west and the north. From Damascus
the British and their allies can push
on to Aleppo, and when orieo at Alep
po the allied lleet will be able to seize
Alexundrettn, tho most northern point
of the Syrian coast."
The capture of Damascus marks an
aclvanco of 130 miles by General Allen
by's forces since September 20, the day
he launched his victorious nttuck north
of Jerusalem. In that time the British
have captured more than 50,000 prison
ers, destroyed at least throe Turkish
armies and driven tho enemy from Pal
estine and a great part of Syria.
Damascus, with a population vari
ously estimated at from lfiO.OOO to 350,
000, Is considered the oldest city In
the world. 'It is in the Lebanon region
of Syria, 53 miles southeast of Beirut.
Tho founding of the city Is attributed
by Josephus to Uz, the son of Aram.
Washington, Oct. 5. Ten olllcers
nl 102 enlisted men, In addition to
iii- British olllcer uiii live civilian em-
.vees, were lost when tho U. S. S.

M the night of September 2(1, tho navy

Reports to tho navy department fall
' state that a submnrlne was sighted,
ut said thatntl'tho evidence Indicated
'hat the vessel was the victim of a
-ul.innrlno. She was escorting n con
and for some reason had run

At S:-15 an explosion was heard, and
