MEN AS FIRE FIGHTERS Fut Out 127 Blazes in 1«14 Without Aid of Public Departments Four hundred aud twenty-seven ilres more than three-quarters of all that occurred on the propertv of the system last year—were extinguished by Penn sylvania railroad employes with aid of public (ire departments, according to figures given our by the company to day. Promptness in checking these fires ke|>l the average loss on each down to St 3, although the property directly endangered was worth $9,516. The actual damage sustained in tires ex tinguished by employes was only SIV 4tiS, or le.-s than one-lifih of one per cent, of the value of the propertv threatened. Organized fire brigades among the employes last fear checked 34 tires and saved $1,524,973 worth of propertv, at a loss of $706. Other employes, by the use of chemical extinguishers, put out 71 fires, saving propertv to the value of $3,713,228, with a loss of only $2,684, and by the use of com pany's fire hose protected property with a value of $1,779,022 through extin guishing 4 3 lires with a loss of $2,262. The total fire loss on the Pennsyl vania system during 1914, including fires where the assistance of city fire departments was received, was $638,- 483, while the value of the entire property was almost $400,000,000, the fire loss being only 16 cents per each SIOO of property value at risk. Many of the tires resulting in this loss were from causes over which the railroad company had no control. Forty-three fires originated on adjacent property. Incendiaries started twelve fires, boys were responsible for two, tramps for fifteen, lightning for seven and carelessness with matches and to bacco for sixteen.

M.—The insurance rates on coasters have 'been raised from five to twenty shillings per cent, as a re6«lt of the German submarine raid. Sinking of the Icaria Havre, Via Paris, Jan. 31, Midnight —The stearner lesria from Brazil with a cargo of coffee, sugar and hides, was twenty miles northwest of Capo Lehevo to-day when a violent explosion oc curred on her starboard side b t >low the wftterfitie. The steamer immediately became unmanageable and began to sink by the head. In reply to signals of distress two tugs put out and towed her into Havre. Disaster to Tokomaru London, l'>b. 1, 8.40 A. M.—A mem ber of the crew of the Britisli steamer Tokomaru, which was mink in the Eng lish channel, supposedly by a subma rine, has arrived in London and thu9 describes the disaster: officers and crow had .iiist tin ished breakfast when the explosion oc curred. The ship was virtuailly sta tionary, seeking a pilot. The vessel tilted over immediately and soon had a heavy list. "The captain ordered the boats cut and in 15 minutes every one was anrrav but. saved virtually nothing. The gen eral opinion of the crew was that she had been torpedoed but no sign of a submarine was seen." Paris, Feb. 1, o A. M.—The sinking of Mic British steamer Tokomaru in the English Channel off Havre bv a Ger man submarine, said to have been done without previous warning to enable the crew to escape, has provoked an out burst of indignation in the French press. All refer to the interview credit ed to Admiral Von Tirpitz, the com mander-iu-chief of the German naval forces, in which a war on merchant ships by submarines was outlined. German Press Comment on Raid Berlin. Via Amsterdam and London, Feb. 1, 2.4T, A M.—The German news papers comment extensively on the Ger man submarine r'nid in English home waters. "We ho|»e that the commercial war now taken up by German submarines in British home waters," says the "Tages Zeitung," '.will strike at the root of the British trans-oceanic trade." Captain Persia*, the naval expert, of the "Berliner Tageblatt," has this to say of the event in his paper; "Especially remarkable is ,the thea tre of new action. Hitherto the most advanced point where our submarines displayed activity was in Ihe westerly outlet of the channel, but thencefor ward the English merchant navigation will have to reckon with other German submarine dangers, which it can only avoid when it stops traffic." Sarcasm for England's Doings The "Post" says sarcastically: "We see that England's attempt to cut off the supply of victuals by hinder ing all foreign trade promises great succef.'' All the papers express enthusiasm over the doings of the submarine as ushering in the war .tpon Great Brit ain 's commerce as heralded by Ad miral Von Tirpitz. Attention is called particularly to the fact that U-21 is operating a thousand miles from her base, which is a greater radius of ac tivity than hitherto was believed pos sible. The argument is advanced that what, already has happened to small coasters may to-morrow happen to the great English liners. London, Feb. 1, 2.2S P. M.—A mes sage received here this afternoon from Southport says that a German subma rine, supposedly the U-21, was seen off there early this morning. Causes Commotion at Lloyds Loudon, Feb. 1, 3.30 P. M.—The German submarine raid in the Irish Sea caused a commotion at Uoyds and in surance rates stiffened generally. The Atlantic Tate ordinarily is five shillings ($1.23) per cent. l>ut the underwriters are now asking ten shillings ($2.30) and in some cases fifteen shillings ($3.73). What little business is being transacted, however, is believed to be at the lower figures. Work of U-21 Praised by Germans Berlin, Feb. 1. By Wireless to Stov ville —The exploits of the German sub marine U-21 in the Irish fc>ca havo awakened a lively satisfaction in Ger many, they arc generally looked upon as inaugurating a serious campaign of submarine warfare on British com merce. The demonstration that Gorman sub marines can operate on the west coast of Kngland is treated ill Berlin as an achievement of the utmost importance, it being the opinion'of German naval men that it is likely to make the British policy of starving out Germany rocoil on Great Britain. News regarding the land operations both in the east and in the west is scarcer to-day than usual. There is a tendency on the [>art of German mili tary experts to watci closely develop ments in the Carpathian mountains where further successes for the Austro- Gorman forces are expected.
