TO LOWER FL Steamer Chenung of New York Tor pedoed by Submarine OIT the Spanish Coast. London, Nov. 28. Lloyds reports the sinking of the American steamer Chemung. The Chemung sailed from New York on November 8th for Genoa and Naples and stopped at Fayal, Azores, November 20. She was owned by the Darby Steamship company of New York, was built in 1888 at Buffalo and was 327 feet long, of 3,002 tons gross. The crew of the Chemung has been landed at Valencia by the Spanish steamer Giner, says a Reuter Pdspatch from Valencia today. The Chemung was torpedoed near Cabo de Gata, according to the dis patch. The steamer foundered with the American flag flying, it is added, the captain having formally refused to lower the flag. The submarine towed the crew to within five miles of the coast, the Valencia advices state, and then aban doned them. At the end of the day they were picked up by the Giner. Cr.bo do Gata, or Cape Gata, is a promontory of Spain on the coast of Andalusia, forming the casern side of the Gulf of Almeria, an arm of the Mediterranean. New York, Nov. 28. The Harris Magtill Steamshp company repre sentatives here of the Harby Steam ship company, owners of the Chtmun-T. repoited sunk today, said the vessel earned general cargo, no munitions cr cargo owned by the Italian govern ment being on board. The ship va.; commanded by Cap tain John L. Duffy and tarried a crew of thirty-live men, the majority of whom are believed to be Americans. The crew list cf the Chemrr.g ?:k-c with customs ciiicials h'ere shews thai only ten of the men on hoard, includ ing Captain Duffy, were Americans, the others being Greeks, Russian-;. Spaniard-:- ar.il Mexicans. Ths iranifost of cargo, hied on ('ate of sailing, shows that it consi-te I mainly of iron and sleel products, chemical;, dr'ed fish, wooden st:v s, etc. Included in the cargo were ,li0 pieces' of copper and 200 bales of cot ton.

Olli cial report on the destruction of the American steamer Chemung by a Ger man submarine was rccei cd by the State department late today front the American consul at Valincia. Spain. He said all on board had. been landed safely. As there was no loss of life, nor apparent violations of Germany's pledges, the case is not regarded a -alarming. In the long argued case of the Frye. Germany agreed that an American ship carrying contraband and sunk because a submarine could not get her into port should be paid for in full. The amount of damages is. thought to be the only subject for ne-r gptiation in the present case.

The warning issued by the city council to the auto speeders as to driving fast on Washington avenue should be .heeded as the police com mittee have instructed the city police to see that the offenders are compelled to face the musicfor their violation of the speed laws. The new paving is a sore temptation to the auto driver tired of riding over the bumpy roads to strike a nice mile stretch of pav ing, and very few can resist the de sire to "open 'er up" a little and try out their machine, but they must be ware, as the police will be on the look out and the costs of speeding will be added to the high cost of living if they are not careful. The avenue runs through the ward of Councilman Buttery, chairman of the police com mittee and he is prepared to see that the ordinance and state law is ob served in every sense of the word by those traveling over the paving with their autos.

WARNS BANKS i Important Admonition Does Not Re flect on Financial Status of Allies. Washington, D. C, Nov. 27. Amer ican bankers were warned by the fed eral reserve bjard to avoid locking up their funds by purchasing treas ury bills of foreign governments in volving long term obligations. While specifically disclaiming "any intention of reflecting upon the finan cial stability of any-nation." the board advises all investors to proceed with cation and formally announced to member, banks of the federal reserve system that with the liquid funds which should be available to American merchants, manufacturers and farm ers in danger of being absorbed for other purposes it "does not regard it in the interest of the country at this time that they invest in foreign treas ury bills of this character." The statement is regarded in offi cial circles as one of the most im portant declarations by the board since its creation. Oaleials, would not discuss the ques tion of publication, but some of them informally interpreted the warning as the reserve board's answer to the re cent j'. r jposal i J. P. Morgan & Co., British fiscal agents' in this country, HPS Hie For men of full figure who want style as well as comfort, will find both in this model. It has all the smartness of the slender models roomy and comfortable, but built to conceal corpulence. Prices 20 and Up Stetson Hats Manhattan Shirts ens to have American bankers accept British treasury bills of an indefinite total issue, secured by gold reserves held in Ottawa. Such loans would be for ninety days with the period of renewal for five other ninety-day periods. II. P. Davison, of the Morgan firm, was in Washington recently and con ferred with President Wilson and some of the members of the reserve board. It was said later that he sought to have banks of the reserve system authorized to buy British treas ury bills as if they were bills of ex change to cover commercial transac tions. Danger from further importation of large amounts of gold, the board says, will arise only in case the gold is per mitted to become the basis of unde sirable loan expansions and of infla tion. Emphasis is laid upon the ne cesity for caution in putting money into investments which are short term in name, but which either by contract or through force of circumstances may in the aggregate have to be renewed until normal conditions return.
