The submarine, the cfficers said, was recognized as 20 ensmy craft when she approached within about one mile. What appeared to be a falso superstract. | are of canvas surmounted by the maete was on her decks, and it was while a portion of this canvas ass being cleared away to enable a deck gan to get into action that her true identity was disclosed, the glistening hall of the rounded deck being plainly seen through glasee. Fall speed was crowded on the engines of the freighter, and for more than so hour the rece wss about even, then the steamer slo.ly drew awsy. For bömei reason unknown to the (fficers of the ship, the sabmarine did pet fire on her.

Yesterday, when near the American coast, the officers add- ed, the United States craiser Birmingham came up, and enj eignal the Southerndown was stopped. An fier sad an armed guard carce on board from the American warehip and established the identity of the Southerndown before she WAR allowed to proceed.
