Washington, Jan. 26. The Ameri can riestroyer Jacob Jones sunk of! the Irish coast by a German sub marine December 6, 9p, was tor pedoed bv the U-53, the vessel which visited Newport, R. I., in the summer of 1916, and later harried allied mer chant shipping off the New England coast. This fact was disclosed in me report oi ucuicucms . im ler and J. II. Fulcher, U. S. N., who were captured by the submarine U 152, which sank the cargo transport Ticonderoga, September 30, 1918. and released when the German submar ine flotilla was surrendered Novem ber 24, after they had spent nearly two months on the submersible in American waters, and at the sub marine base at Kiel. The report, made public tonight by the Navy department, showed also that the German officer com manding the U-53 when the Jones was destroyed, Captain von Schra dcr, was aboard the boat when it was at Newport. ' He there saw Lieut. Commander David Worth Uagley, a brother of the wife of Secretary Daniels, who commanded the Jacob Jones. Von Schradcr told the captured American officers that he had recognized Bagley in the dory of the sinking vessel and ncnt out a wireless call for aid be fore leaving the scene. A note ap pended, to the report, presumably by Vice Admiral Sims, said such a call was picked up at Queenstown, but that its. origin had been a mys tery. , Sank Ship In British Channel. The U-152, which . after sinking theTicoiuTeToga and taking Muller and Fulcher aboard,' continued to American waters to raid shipping, encountered the "U-53 on her way back' to Kiel after all German sub marines had been recalled near the end of the war. Besides telling of the destruction of the Jacob Jones, Vaptain von Schrader said that six weeks earlier in the Bristol channel lie'Tiad sunk an American escort ship believed to have been the form er cqast guard cutter, Tajnpa, which went down with all hands on board, and had fired a torpedo at the American scout , cruiser, Chester. The Tampa was sunk September. 26 and the Navy departmenCeaid there was no evidence that tlfe U-53 was in that virinitv.

More tiian an hon later, the U-152 reappeared and pounded the Ticonderdga with 40 more shots which finally reached the engine and fire roonft. The order to abandon siiip was given, but a sheet hoisted , in the rigging as a sign of r urrender was not heeded, by the : ubmarine, and. according to the re port, Fulcher "waved a pillow slip from the deck." The captain of the transport hid been' wounded as had Fulcher and Muller.. Tlfe execu tive officer and Fulcher, who was the first assistant engineer agreed there was nothing to .do but surrend er as ujnny of the men, aboard had been killed. . , Wounded Men Cast Adrift. ' After the Ticonderoga went down I he-U-152, after "fishing out barrels iii potatoes and onions" , from the ' Moating wreckage; picked up Muller, who was taken for the commander of the ship, and later ' Fulcher. The report said that Captain Franz of the U-beat "was under the impres sion that the after-gun .(of the trans port), had continued firing after the sh-et had been hoisted." Many wounded men on rafts or in the water pleaded with the Germans to In taken' aboard as they had no food orvwr.ter or chance of life if left to tfteir fate, but Franz told them Je had "ro-m for no more" and cast them adrift. . Mu'.Ier and Fulcher make no com plaint of their treatment aboard the submarine, which was outward bound from Kiel, for the Amercan coast on her second trip, and which continued into the gulf stream on the lookout for allied shipping; First news of the armistice negotiations rame by radio 'ith the message "Engage men-of-war only. The mer- . chant war is ended." The Amen, cans were told by the German offi cers that this was "the first act of our new government." On October 12, however, the U-152 encountered and sank the Norwegian bark Stifinder off the .ewtoundianci coast, leaving tnt crew in their boats lfiOQ miles from land. - ; j, f Two days later an unarmed ship was fired at, but a cruiser or de stroyer drove the U-boat under and dropped depth bombs. Several duels with armed ships occurred later, the results of which the prisoners lint not learn, and on October 20 came a radio order. "All submarines re turn to Kiel," which was obeyed. Pleased Over Armistice. It was not until November 11 that the U-152 reached the North Sea mine barrage, through which it passed on the surface. The follow ing day Captain Franz announced that the armistice , had been signed and the war was over. t "All hands seemed pleased," the report said. That n-ght in the Skageracf, the U-53 was encountered and the story of the sinking of the Jacob Jones was' heard. The last report from the U-53-was that she was headed for Swedish waters to intern rather than -fiim n r.prmailV.

UN poucr DECLARED ERROR BY GARIBALDI General Plans to Recruit in U. S. Force to Cope With Labor Troubles He Fore sees for Italy. Paris. Jan. 26. Gen. Giuseppe ( Peppino, Garibaldi, grandson of the famous Italian patriot, passed through Paris today -on his way to Italy, having given up command of the Italian division of the French front. He took advantage of the decree which allows all volunteers, to return to civil life. "The most important question to my mind at present is that of Rus sia," General Garibaldi said to the Associated Press. "The peace con ference is commiting an error, in trying to get into touch with the bolshiviki. "I have the profoundest .confidence in the sanity of the Rilssian peopltr' as a whole. Once a properly organiz ed force puts foot into Russia, a large majority of the population will be with us. Half a million men at the outside would be all the force that fs needed." Asked about Italy's claims in Ty rol and Dalmatia, General Garibaldi answered: "What Italy must have at any cost is a frontier -which will make her safe from any eventual enemy. "That is to say, she must have the crest of the Alps, which would bring her frontier up to the Brenner pass. I refuse to discuss the question of Fiume. If the peace, congress does not decide that Fiume is to be an nexed to Italy, it will, be a violation of 'all the principles we hold sacred. Foresees Labor Troubles. , "It. is my belief ther soon will be prave labor troubles in all the European states and America must act as a stabilizer of European gov ernments. On this account, I want to go to America in 'March and I hope to prepare the ground" for fu ture events on this continent. If any serious upheaval takes place in Italy, I shall be able 1 to recruit anion? Italians in t'ne United States a sufficient fore? to control the sit- i uation for the purpose of benefiting no party but to help the country as a whole."

The play is a vivid drama of the orient and the star is shown in the role of Ha'ssouna, a girl of the desert. The picture was taken from the famous play, "L'Oc- cident," written by . the Belgian dramatist, Henry Kisteniaecker. The story is that of an Arabian girl who lives with her tribe in a city of tents on the'edge of the desert. A French officer on duty there is made prison er and released by Hassouna who falls in love" with him. She con fesses her-part and" -is sentedced to death by starvation and thirst in the desert.

Catherine Curtis has the leading role in the photo-play "The Shepherd of,tJie Hills," shoeing at the Bran deis th:s week. ' The picture is taken from the book of tlfe same name, by Harold Bell iWright and was photo graphed under the personal direc tion of the author. Tjie scene of the story is in the mountains of Arkan sas. The plot deals with the troubles of one "Sammy" Lane, the heroine, played by Miss Curtis, and of the hero, known as Young Dan Mat thews. There are also a fw bank robbers and one particularly black villan. Wash Gibbs, whom young Dan whips :n a fight which would not be allowed under the proposed boxing law now before the- legisla ture. Beautiful wood scenes form the most attractive part of the pic ture. - ' In "The Gretes Thing in Life," D. W. Griffith? has woven into pic ture form the theme of the man and the woman who find themselves and at the same time the world about them in the fires of the great world war. For the story of the play is merely, a simpjeTove story of a torn boyish girl and an ultra-conservative clubman and well-to-do business man of New York a snob also. In conception of what makes ntotipn picture drama and in the f ineiess of photography, Mr. Griffith has some new and wonderful things to show his audiences and there are present in complete detail some of the great scenes of the battle of the Marne. But the story of the play is the love story of the young American and the French girl and of what self-sacrifice will do for a man1 Soul.
