Although the British censorship prevents transmission ol delails con Cf?r.ing the reported sinking of the Thornaby, the reference to the rntm-b-rs of the crewirg having probably been killed or drowned indicates she was sunk by a mir.e or a torpedo.

Twelve Liners. Ntar Zone. New York, March 1. The scheduled opening of the new submarine cam paign of the Teutonic powers, which was set for today, finds twelve big liners in or near the war zone, in which the Austrian and German un dersea boats are operating. The liners are: Civtic, of the White Star line; Itaba, Ifdian line; Taor mina, Italian line; LaFayette, French ! ime; i'mlaueipnia, American line; r in land, in American line service; Ber gernsfjord, Norwegian-American line; American, Italian line: Patria, Fabre line; Pannonia, Cunard line, and the Ioannina and Vasilef Constantinos, of the Greek line. None of these steamers is believed to b? armed unless they have mounted gun at sea. Although there have been sailings cf White Star steamers on an average of once a week since the war began, of ficials of the company here today said no more cf the company's liners would ;tiil with passengers to any English ports until April 12, when the Lapland is scheduled to leave here. It is as serted that the decision has r.o bear- ing on the new German submarine campaign, but was due to the fact that the British government has taken over many vessels of the line for the transportation of munitions. A statement was confirmed that the steamer Baltic would not sail from Liverpool for New York tomorrow, as scheduled, owing to in the Mersey." 'dock congestion Forty Ships Not Warned. London, March 1. The admiralty has made public a list of "unarmed British vessels torpedoed and sunk by enemy submarines without warning" up to the end of 101 It comprises thirty-nine steamers and one trawler. A list also was given of neutral vessels said to have been torpedoed in the same period without warning, con sisting of thirteen steamers and one sailing vessel, of which two, the Gulf light and Nebraska, were American, four Norwegian, four Swedish, one Dutch, one Danish, one Greek and one Portugese. "In addition to the above," says the admiralty statement, "there are sev eral cases in which there is no rea sonable doubt that the vessel was sunk by a torpedo fired without warning from a submarine, but in the absence of actual proof, due to a lack of sur vivors or from other causes, these cases are omitted from the lists." ouod sfTiq sajcg Journal.
