TOTAL OF 6# SUBMARINES
HAVE BEEN SURRENDERED

marines were surrendered to Admiral
Tyrwhltt, of Harwich. This makes a
total of 59 submarines thus far hand
ed over. There would have been 21
surrendered but one sank daring tha
night.
Tho correspondent of tho wireless
aervico with tho Ilritish naval forcea
says that just before noon a cruiser
came Into sight, followed by the Ger
man submarines and a Gorman trans
port. Tho transfer took place In tho
harbor on acocunt nf tho heavy sea
running. Tho majority of the subma
rines were largo and nearly all v were
flleil with wireless equipment.
When tho Germans arrived it waa
noticeable that tho revolutionary cle
ment was decidedly present. Some of
tho officers had removed the Prus
sian eagles from their caps and re
placed them with a sort of red badge
that recognizes tho authority of the
sailors' and soldiers' council. Tho
men took very little notlco of any
thing their officers said to them. One
shouted:
"'No officer —no kaiser."
