THREE NORTH CAROLINIANS AMONG CREW OF MARINA Newport News, Oct. 31. The steamer Marina, reported sunk with out warning by gunfire from a Ger man submarine off the Irish coast with the loss of several American lives, was a bona fide merchant ves sel, according to agents of the Don aldson line here, and was not in the service of the British government. The Marina sailed from this port for Glasgow October 25 with 50 Ameri cans aboard, carrying a number of horses and a general cargo, most of the Americans having signed for the round trip as horseme?!. ''The Marina was one of our regu lar steamers plying between here and Glasgow," it was said at the office of the agents, "and was owned and op erated as a merchantman by the Don aldson line.

(By Associated Press.) Washington, Oct. 31. Secretary Lansing said today that his reports. on the destruction of the British ship Marina with probable destruc tion of American lives still were too incomplete of any conclusions to al low him to discuss the case. Fuller 'reports with affidavits of American survivors have been ordered by cable. This morning's news dispatches sz.id that some of the survivors had seen the wake of a torpedo before the ship was struck and that she was hit twice. Officials noted, however, that the British admiralty was not clear that the ship was torpedoed and that Con sul Frost reports she was destroyed by a torpedo. The advices from the first aspects of the case that indicate no conclusion could be drawn until all circumstances had been cleared up. Admittedly the case was viewed as more serious than any others since the destruction of the Sussex since it was the only one involving the de struction of American lives.
