" "How long? " echoed Jack Templeton. "Surely you know that England is already conducting a vigorous campaign against them. " "I don't seem to have heard anything of such a campaign, " returned Frank dryly; "but another big liner was torpedoed and sunk off the coast of Ireland yesterday. What are we going to do about it? That's what I want to know. " "I'll tell you a little something you don't seem to know, " said Jack. "In the last thirty days, in the neighborhood of a hundred German submarines have disappeared-sunk or captured- no one seems to know which. Nevertheless, it is a fact. Through diplomatic channels word has been received in London that a large number have failed to return to their bases. The German government is much disturbed. ""
