George Moore, thlrty-threo ycar3 old, of

U-BOAT LOSS CONFIRMED
Destroyer Also Reports Attack
and Probable Doom of
Submarine
A.V ATLANTIC PORT. July 17.
The marines were the "first ashore" In
France Also It was one of their transports
that the German submarines fired on.
That the tradition of the marines was
fully lived up to In the landing of America's
first expeditionary army In Kranco was
learned here today. And with this camo
a first-hand .dory of one of the attacks on
the American transports nnd their con
voys The lookout on the marines' transport
could not see tho submarines owing to the
darkness. He distinctly raw the wake of
two torpedoes, however, one passing the
bow nnd the bther the stern of the ship.
The destroyers were In full cry after the
submarines, but the guns aboard the trans
port let go In the general direction In which
the I' -boats were believed to be. Then the
destroyers swung Into the line and the
transport had to ceaso firing
Ono destroyer coming from Kuropenn
wateis which mc the American fleet re
ported her belief that she had sunk a
l-bont a few days' before The destroyer
had answered tho call of on vessel In
distress when she heard another. Then
only a short dlstanco away a submarine
was sighted. Tho destroyer put full steam
on, charged directly nt the U-boat, passed
ovei the spot where the submarlno 'dived
nnd as she did so let go a depth mine.
With the explosion of the mine a vast
quantity of wreckngc and oil came to the
surface, members of the crew said.
"V guess some Helnles have mlsied the
Iron cross," was tho way tho destroyer
crew reported their exploits to their fellow
jacklos.
In addition to the brush with submarines
en route to Trance men of at least one of
the transpotts beIleo ono l-boat was
sighted on their return trip Tho subma
rine was a considerable distance away.
Shots were fired nt her, but the U-boat
dived.
