Fate Of Spearfish
In Doubt
A "British Wireless" message this morning reported the loss of the British submarine Spearfish, commanded by Lieut. J. H. Forbes.
No confirmation of this mes- sago has been received-from-any- other source, and the naval authorities in Hongkong believe. that it should be treated with
reserve.
The part of the "British Wireless" message regarding the Spearfish read us follows:

firmed that the report was received sent. It is emphasised, however, that no previous reports of the loss of the Spearfish have been received through British Wireless." Neither "United Press" nor "Reuter" have reported the loss of the vessel.
