' carrying horses from tho United States to' Eng land, was sunk by German submarine U-33.at 8:07 the night of June 23, accord ing to State Department advices received here this nfternoon. . , Advices were conflicting, but Indicated that 20 members of the crow, mostly American negroes, were lost. Ten Injured had been landed nt Bristol. England. The Armenian was sunk 20 mlle3 west by north of Trebos Head, Cornwall, and tho State Department's advices came from American Consul Armstrong, at Bristol. According to Armstrong the ship's wlre lesa,plant was shot away, which gave rise to the conjecture that the vessel was try ing Jo dodge the submarine. The Armenian", It was stated at the State Department, on Investigation, was owned by the Dominion Line, a subsidiary of tho Leyland Line. It railed from New port News June 17, bound- for Avon mouth, on tho English west coast. MAV CAUSE NEW CRISIS Government officials were not prepared to' say, on short notice, what the ship's status would prove to be. If It had been requisitioned by the Brit ish Government or was chartered by it. the Impression wan that It would class as a transport and be subject to the rules o' wnr . In such a case It seemed- to be the general opinion that the United States could not go very deeply Into the matter, though It mlsht claim Indemnity for the loss of American lives. All Information relating, to the affair was rushed to the President, at Cornish, and to Secretary Lansing, at Amherst. Lansing was expected back In Wash ington Thursday. ,, In his absence none of the subordinate officials of the State Department would talk. Indeed, they held backfall thefacts .:... ...,'. i,t nii lh chorses carried on. the lost vessel were bought by commis sioned British officers was held tol'iid color to th theory that the Armenian ranked as a transport.
