Chasing the U-Boat Absorbing Occupation
According to this Captain's Account
Exper
The 's adventure with the
steamship Tarquan cannot be told
until that flivver comes into port. The
I . and had a hand in it;
' and 'the first's account of the sinking
i of the Obuasi where it arrived long
i after the deed shows the defective
functioning and poor marksmanship
ience of American De
stroyer on Watch to Protect
Ships From Attack by the
Subsea Terrors.
(The following accounts of life on an
an American destroyer in the U-boat
zone is writen by the commander
of the vessel, and furnished The Bee
by the Navy department. For obvious
reasons names are suppressed, but
this docs not detract from the inter
est of the story, which is all the more
thrilling because it tells of the work
the destroyers actually are doing.)
CHICAGO GBA1N MARKET.
Belief Cora Crop Rare Hold Price Down
Despite Frost.
Chicago, Oct. I. Report of killing frosts
In th main corn belt failed today to lift
corn price. Tho majority of traders ap
peared to hare a settled belief that the bulk
of the crop was matured and beyond dam
age. Instead of th frost acting a a
tlmutu to buying, they noticeably In
creased realizing sales Opening quotations,
which ranged from 0c off to c up,
wore followed by a moderate general set
back and then a alight rally.
Lack of any algna of a renewal of export
buying weakened oata. Dealer chiefly
watohed the action of corn.
Commission houses were fair buyer of
provision. Th Impetus to purchaae waa
ascribed In the main to tha liberal amount
taken of lata for Belgium.

New Tork. Oct. I Higher level prevailed
at the opening of today' tock market,
equlpmenta and related war shares gaining
large fractions to almost 1 point. Oils,
shippings, copper and several of the pec
ulativ specialties registered equal advance
but rails were hesitant, alight galna In New
Haven, coalers and minor western Issues be

New York, Oct. From a firm opening
today s short session of tho stock market
gradually developed a lower trend. War
shares and rails featured the early demand,
but fell away when selling of steels nd
special Industrie was resumed. United
State Steel and Bethlehem Steel lost a
point each. Midvsle Steel 3Vi. and equip
ments, oil and utilities surrendered Initial
gains of 1 to almost 3 point. Dealings
were wholly professional and limited to
the prominent Issues. Tho closing waa
heavy. Bales approximated 350,000 tharea.
Liberty bonds, 11.72 to 11.71.
The destroyers' work may be
viewed to yield more colorful and
human material than that so tersely
recorded in their war diaries. It is
stimulating from the mazes of con
voy and submarine search work to
untangle vivid threads of adventure.
For the first half of a certain month
a few points stand out for emphasis
or visualization. Certainly no laxitv
is yet sophisticating the personnel
in the growing montonj of its duty.
I'.nemy operations have been largc
y in the southern part of our area.
CaJm weather and the moon have
favored them. Merchant shins have

thick of such incidents. At 1:18
clock on the morning of the Hth
he X was steaming singly at fifteen
knots, with a quiet sea and good visi
bility for that hour. The captain was
smoking a cigar on the bridge, won
dering, he told me, whether Mrs. G.
would ever have the pleasure of put
ting roses on her old man's tomb up
the Hudson. A heavy explosion,
without flash, shook the darkness
about three miles over the port bow.
A whistle bleated three times, and
the radio shack called up the tube
that the steamship Kioto was torpe
doed twenty miles southwest by west
of Fastnet Light.
The X switched on its general
alarm for battle, changed course to
228 degrees true, and plunged thither
at full speed. In two minutes it
made out the staccato sparks of a
blinker, repeating over and over "tor
pedoed, torpedoed " In five minutes
it changed course 19 degrees father
east, and at 1:30 the flush deck of a
single-stacker of about 4,00 tons
loomed over the cocoa matting and
thrusting men about the Xo. 4 gun.
It now was ncaring the freighter,
bow on, a bit to port. Suddenly out
of the darkness to the right a livid
beam rushed straight and shimmering .
at it under the sea. It put over full
right rudder. The torpedo passed
close aboard across its bows, to the
left, just ahead of the Kioto, and as
the luminous wake receded like a
muffled searchlight, it seemed to
break spent upon the near horizon.
"Anyhow," said the captain after
wards, "it was worth crossing the
ocean to see and feel that instant. It
made those roses seem a lot nearer."
Crew Saved, Vessel Lost.
The destroyer began to circle the
Kioto at high speeds, with alternate
right and left rudder. Its blinker
stammered on; that it had been hit
in the port quarter abaft the engine
room. Then the lights ceased. Ten
minutes after two loaded lifeboats
emerged out of the starboard dark
ness. They held fiify-nine men, in
cluding the second officer and a tall
engineer wounded in the leg. Soon
after 2 o'clock all were safe aboard
the X. It continued to circle the
steamer, which was slowly sinking
by the stern. Alarm of the disaster
had flashed to adjacent patrols. The
Y nosed into sight and stood by; like
wise II. M. S. , which signaled
that it had taken aboard sixteen
more survivors and the Kioto's im
petus captain he that returned to
the wreck. At 3:20 o'clock the
freighter sank by the stern, blotted
itself out with hardly a gleam of
wash, leaving only floating wreckage
and a Coston light which flickered up
from time to time until daybreak, like
a lantern in a lifeboat.
Neither submarine nor destroyer
had used gunfire. The Gemart was
not even sighted. Only two torpedoes
were known to have been fired the
one which crossed the X's bow, and
the one which sctthd the Kioto.
Only two days before the X had
had a better brush with a sub and
may have gotten it; skippers put in
the claim on evidence as good. It
was steaming in the same area, under
like conditions, when at 8:10 in the
evening it sighted a pronounced
wake. One could even estimate the
speed at which the submarine had
just submerged about eight knots
when general quarters were called
Its course was r-t right angles to the
destroyer's.
The X worked up to full speed,
turned with left rudder, and ran down
on the right hand side of the slack.
In six minutes it had reached its
"head," ready to drop a depth charge:
four minutes to run to the end of the
wake, two more to allow for the sub's
run beyond- and it tripped the
pump. With the charge, which was
set for eighty feet, was dropped a
calcium torch pot to mark the place.
The explosion audibly jarred the
blowers, and within three minutes oil
bubbles swirled to the surface. But
circled the vicinity, hoping the in
jured enemy would rise to the sur

face, no further sign of damage was
revealed.
Four days later the turned
its convoy over to the at two
hours before daylight, and returned
to its regular patrol. About 5 o'clock
in the morning it took under its
wing the steamer Pentwyn, bound for
Manchester. At 7:45 o'clock Cap
tain Lyons sent a quartermaster aloft
to the main truck to clear a fouled
commission pennant. Scarcely had
the quartermaster reached it when
he called down to the watch on the
alter deckhouse, "l'triscope, two
points abaft tne port beam!" The
thing was 1,500 to 2,000 yards from
the , which was 400 yards ahead
of the , one point on its port
bow. The whole body of the sub
marine was distinct to the quarter
master though, oddly, invisible both
to the bridge and the foretop lookout.
The periscope seemed headed west
ward, and it at once started to sub
merge. Within twenty seconds, as
the destroyer came to general quar
ters, first one torpedo, instantly fol
lowed by a second, radiated from the
point where it had vanished. Both
were making surface runs, for the
sub's conning tower hatch still must
have been near the surface. They
'.hrew spray up fully twenty feet,
clearly visible against the choppy
sea. All hands on the bridge and
decks saw them; as did the ,
astern; for it swung sharply to star
board, presenting its tail to them,

Quid: Handling Saves Destroyer.
Both torpedoes missed the , but
by the smallest margin. The ,
making high speed, swung with full
left rudder toward the submarine. At
9:05 o'clock a third torpedo was fired
at the convoy, apparently from an
other submarine about 200 yards
ahead of the first. It approached from
broad on the 's beam, also making
a surface run at about the same range
as the first two, and it missed.

dropped at its end, but a half hour's
search found proof of nothing. The

and efficient handling.

hundreds to thousands of barrels of oil daily. Goose Creek, Texas, Is perhaps the
most famous oil field in all the United States for many large wells on a small area.
C. T. ROCKER, GENERAL MANAGER
No one ol man is better or more favorably known in all Texas than C. T.
Kucker, our general manager. Experienced people know that the success of an oil
company does not depend on the office force that writes its letters and keeps Its
books, but on the one man who supervises the drilling of the wells. No man in the
Goose Creek Field has drilled or located so many oil wells of enormous production
as C. I. Rucker. He works every day in the field in hia shirt sleeves. He lived
" nnden "B!lack" in Goos c" P until two years ago. Now he lives
oil "wells "n" Houston. But every day he is on the oil field drilling
