GERMAN SUBMARINES IN ENGLISH CHANNEL
' NAVY QUICK TO DEAL WITH THE MENACE. PROMPT AND SEVERE LESSON TO THE KCIT. (Received 11.30 a.m.) NEW YORK, October 5. The "New York World's" London correspondent cables that the Germans last week sent all their available submarines to the English Channel with the object of fulfilling German boasts that they were able to close the Channel. But the British Navy was quick to deal with the new menace. Although the Channel may seem to have been closed to passenger traffic for a few days the Germans have since learned that they cannot send submarines to English waters with any more impunity than they can send Zeppelins to London.
