Tin assumption n warranted,firstly, because, according to the warpi. ins. no German submarlng on Beptember i waa In the locality w herethe Hesperian waa sunk; secondly,according to the descriptions al bandfrom an English source, the explo-sion was nf each u kind and Its ef-fects were such that ll most lie in-
