The American Line steamship Merlon,
which for years piled between this port
nnd Liverpool, was sunk by a Turkish
submarine in the Dardanelles, according
to a sailor on the American liner do
minion, which arrived at Philadelphia to
day. The man described how members of the
SXerlon'B crew had escaped by clinging to
wooden guns that had been mounted on
the deck to frighten off the enemy, and
declared" that the Turkish naval author
ities, thought that because of the Merlon's
warlike appearance it was a battleship,
and announced, that the Tiger had been
sunk.
The man only told the story on the
promise that the source of Information
would be concealed and would not give
his name. He said that giving out sucn
Information would be severely punished
by the British Admiralty. Officers of the
Dominion refused to discuss the sailor's
account, but would not denv its truth.
Even they did not know frorrrwhim the
story came, and the sailor said that even
aboard ship, he would be punished, so
strongly are the reserve officers- of the
navy in sympathy with the English' polloy
of suppressing news
Fifteen shots were fired, by thf sub
marine, he said, before the Merion was
sunk The Merlon had only four guns
on its decks and could, make no resist
ance to the undersea vessel
Shortly after the entry of England Into
the war the Merlon, together with the
Haverford, which also made this port
resularly, was commandeered by thq Ad
