Bound by contract with the United
K,ates Shipping Board Emergency Fleet
Corporation to deliver fifty ships from
the Hog Island yard by January 1, 101D,
tlie American International Shipbuilding
Corporation now Is confronted by the
possibility that It may he penalized to
the extent of $14,000 a ship for each ves
sel under the prescribed number it falls
to turn over on time.
High officials of the Fleet Corporation
agreed today, following the publication
of a report made to United States At
torney General Gregory on the opera
tions at Hog Island, charging extrava
gance and waste, that this great ship
yard would not be able to complete more
than half of the number of vessels call
ed for In the contract.
Whether the penalties would actually
be Imposed Is a question that rannot
be del el mined until after the contract
matures.
Keaaons for Delay
Chief reasons for the-delay, as pointed
out by Hear Admiral Francis, T Bowles,
assistant general manager of the fleet
corporation are;
First. The failure of Hog -Island to
get fabricated steel lit aequenoe.
Second. Delay fit tire, organisation of
the work ng force "at that shlpvaid. re-

REPLY A BOMB,
SAYSBONNIWELL
Promises to Reveal Inside
Political History on
Monday
GOES TO POLICE GAMES
Will Pevote All Tomorrow to
Answer to Palmer, He
Announces
A lot of secret political history will
be turned Inside out and held up to pub
lic view llonday, so Judge Eugene C.
Bonnlvvell, Democratic candidate for
Governor of Pennsylvania, says.
On that day, he declares he will make
a vitriolic reply to A. Mitchell Palmer,
Democratic national committeeman, who
assailed the Judge's candidacy at Har
rlsbury last Wednesday.
"My reply to Mr. Palmer will be
satisfactory to everybody except Mr.
Palmer himself," Judge Donnlvvell prom
ised this afternoon. "In fact you can
use the superlative and say it will be
most satisfactory to everybody except
Mr. Palmer and his partner Mr. Mc
cormick "
The Democratic candidate was asked
If he concurred in a declaration by Pat
rick F. Brennan, Jury commissioner of
Allegheny County that Mr. Palmer
should resign ns Pennsylvania's repre
sentative on the Democratic national
committee
"J don't care what Palmer does,"
Judge Bonnlwell replied with a broad
smile.
Judge In High Spirits
The Municipal Court Judge appeared
to be In high spirits this afternoon as
he went over a. mass of newspaper clip
pings giving details of Mr. Palmer's
charges.
"I haven't had time to go over the
whole matter as thoroughly as I want
to," the Judge continued, "but my reply
will be ready by Monday-. If I get any
more letters my statement will occupy a
whole newspaper by Itself"
Judge Bonnlwell referred to letters
that have been streaming Into his office
and his campaign headnuartcrs. presum
ably containing much ammunition that
will be fired from 'the, Judge's "big Ber
tha" batteries on Monday.
Attenda Police CarnUal
The Democratic candidate went out to
Franklin Field this afternoon to act as
referee at the police carnival games. He
plans to devote tomorrow to the prepara
tion of his reply,
Bonnlwell followers today are finding
cause for exultation ovef" Palmer's In
dictment of their leader." One supporter
of the Judge said today that "more than
a hundred Republicans have come to
him In the last day or so and said they
were .going to ote for Bonnlwell In No
vember.'' It Is not considered probable that
Judge Bonnlwell will pay any attention
to the summons of the committee and
appear in Harrlsburg next Saturday at
noon to show cause why he should not
wlthdrawv as a candidate for Governor.
Judge "BonnlweH'a friends" declare that
he Was nominated by the Democratic
electors -of Pennsylvania, and, the State
committee Hag no authority to, act as
"high executioners for the party s can
didate. " - '
Palmer Is being slammed right and
left by politicians because of the charges
he made at the State committee meeting.
r ,I$llesV,Cauatle .Statement
Henry C. Nlles, prominent York Dem
ocrat, is out with a statement that
Palmer was largely responsible, for the
election of .Republican Governors In 1910
and 1914. Then he adsr f

Twelve of the ships headed for safe'ty'

The submarines and the convoylnr5,

A long string of empty transports s k
was moving outward on the return voy-
age to America and a submarine wag
coming up to attack them, but, when"
two miles away, the U-boat commander
saw the other transports and started',
off to attack them. The submarine sub
merged, but came tc the surface again
about 1000 yards from the troopships.,,
The submersible was headed In the
wrong direction for an attack, and, as It
started to turn, a British destroyer,
leaped upon the pirate and dropped, a
depth charge squarely upon Its bow,

The submarine was blown completely"
out of the water by the explosion.
In the meantime a swift French di
stroycr swept around the two American
transports that were In peril, putting
down a smoke screen to hide them from
the Germans. '
The French ship swung about Just In
time to see a second German U-boat
coming up.
Another depth charge was then un
loaded from the French man-of-war and
the submarine was destroyed.

John J. Hayes, a politician from Jer
sey City, N. J., who was on one of ths
transports, declared afterward that tha
work of the British and French destroys
ers- was wonderful.
"It looked as If we had no chance at
all," said Hayes. "We did not think wev
were going to get away, for It seemed
as If the British could not possibly reach
us In time. But just when It appeared
that wo were going to be torpedoed, A
British destroyer jumped ahead like a
locomotive under full steam. We thought
It was going to run over the submarine,
A depth charge was dropped just In front
of the U-boat, taking It upon the bows.
"The submarine rose thirty feet Into
the air, In a black, smoking mass ot
ruins. ,
'The submarine then was so close ta
our stern that we were almost lifted

"Then when tho French destroyer set, ,

"The submarine was surely gone, for
