T. Herald.
German Submarine Pursuing English Merchantman.
(Note stern torpedo-tubes, and funnel for carrying oflF exhaust from Diesel engine.) tween June 23 and 30 ; while nineteen British merchant- men, with a total tonnage of 76,000, and three fishing The Submarine Blockade 183 vessels were destroyed either by submarines or mines during the week ending August 25. The total number sunk in the first six months was 485. But with more than fifteen hundred ships coming and going every week, the su...bmarine blockade of the British Isles was ob- viously a failure.
It was a costly failure from the military point of ^ view. The expenditure of torpedoes alone must have been considerable and a modem Whitehead or Schwartz- kopf costs from five to eight thousand dollars and takes several months to build. How many of the " U-boats " themselves have fallen prey to the British patroling craft, traps, mines, and drag-nets cannot be computed with any accuracy, but by the first of September, 1915, the num- ber declared to be lost " on the authority of a high of- ficial in the British Admiralty " ran anywhere from thirty to fifty.
