There Is a strong probability thst tho

bfcnune of tho activity of the German sub
marine or submarines.
Millions of dollars worth of war material.
Including powder, foodstuffs, wearing ap
parel, building material nnd machinery Is
shipped from this port every week.
Du Pont officials expressed little concern
over tho submarining of ships. It was ex
plained by a representative of this company
that responsibility for the shipments of
powder Is out of the compnny's hands once
It Is delivered to the watting ships. Sev
eral boats aro being loaded with powder at
Carney's Tolnt now. They will probably be
held to await further salting orders before
venturing out Into the open sea. Their
cargoes are valued at several millions, ot
dollars each.
Shipments to Russia by way of San Fran
cisco will not be Interfered with, It was ex
plained, nnd powder Is being sent across the
country as usual." The only point of enry,
however, Is Archangel, nnd ones this port

PHUADELPHIANS SAFE

Arricrican Liner Which Sailed
Saturday Said to Bo Now Far
Away From Zone
Thlrtjr-slx rhlladelphlans who salted on
ths American Line steamship I'hllnttetphla
from Nw York Baturdar aro thought to h
today in ths sons ot submarine warfare.
Unless ths submarine moves farther out to
sea for Ha operations, however, the Phila
delphia Is safe, paasencer Una agents say,
for It has had time to travel many miles
beyond tho Nantucket Shoals. In ths Im
medlata vicinity of which the U-SI confined
Its operations yesterday.
Kear that the liner may bo attacked has
also been allayed by the details of ths es
cape of the American merchantman, ths
Kansan. Tl.e U-SI stopped tho Kansan
and after being assured that It was an
American ship, let It psss unmolested. It
the Philadelphia Is stopped by ths subma
rine. It Is believed ths American flac will
be respected.
