MANY VICTIMS MANGLED Ciiliers Are Drowned by. Jumping . CUerboard One of Boats Is Cap hized and l ew of Its Occu ' pants Are Rescued. tOS'DOX, March 25. Edward Huxley. ho witnessed the sinking of the Sus ' tex in the channel, said today from be- pinning to end, that several passengers and several members of the crew un- doubtedly were blown to atoms by the explosion. Mr. Huxley told the Associated Press a remarkable story of the manner in which the forward part of the Sussex .1 was torn off at the captain's bridge. The remainder of the vessel was so lit- tie damaged that even the electric -- lights continued to burn. . Mr. Huxley described the scene on the - Sussex after the explosion as horrible. He would venture no opinion as to .; whether the disaster was caused by a mine or a torpedo. "'. Forward Part of Ship Torn Off. "We left Folkestone at 1:30 P. M.," said Mr. Huxley. "The sea. was smooth, the sun was shining and the steamer : made good time. "I was standing on deck, just-aft of the captain's bridge, chatting with Mr. Drake. I had just looked at my watch " and noticed that it was 3:05 P. M., when suddenly there was a muffled ex plosion. The whole forward part of the shtp seemed to rise in the air and was torn away completely from the rest of the steamer. The Sussex had been cut cleanly in two at the bridge. "Fifteen or twenty persons were drowned by jumping overboard. "It soon became apparent that the after part of the ship, which was main. tainlng an even keel and holding steady, was In no Immediate danger of - Kinking and the panic virtually ceased. ' Tassengers then set about giving first aid to the injured. A number of in jured persons were buried "in the de bris near the bridge. Bridare Torn to Pieces. "Seven persons, all terribly injured. were dug from the wreckage, and sev " eral badly mangled bodies were found --. Undoubtedly other bodies were torn to pieces. "There must have been passengers ( in the forward part of the ship, which was blown away," Mr. Huxley contin ued, "and I believe a large number of the crew were below in this section, as few of them were seen. All those in the forward part of the ship undoubt " edly perished. J... "Soon boats were lowered, passen gers assisting. Five boats were put over. The first ' three had about 30 - or 40 persons in each, there being j". about an equal number of men and . women. The fourth boat turned over " and about 12 persons clambered on top. e threw over chairs, rafts and any - thing which would float to assist them, but only about four of them wore rescued. - so far as I know. The fifth boat had only four cr five people . aboard and this boat appeared to be waterlogged. Theso boats stayed near ", the ship and at the end of an hour the captain called them back and the peo ple were taken on board again. 'J l'rr npfa Trawler Aids Women. m "It was 11:30 P. M. before we were ! able to get help. At that time a French iriwler came alongside and took off all but three iff the women and about half the men. At about the same time a British torpedo boat came alongside. Her commander came on board, and took charge of affairs." " "The passengers did everything pos- Fible for the wounded on board the V Sussex," said Mr. Huxley. "The Ameri " ran woman doctor did fine work and Mr. Penfield. although suffering from i a badly shattered leg, directed the first aid for others. He now is among the , injured in the Dover Hospital. "Miss Baldwin was standing near the bridge with Penfield and a young American who was on his way to Join the Red Cross when the explosion oc- curred. - Both she and Penfield mi v raculously escaped death, but their r companion, whose name is not known, lias not been seen since the disaster. ; . co far as I have learned. Bulkheads Withstand Strain. r "That the after part of the Sussex - did not fill probably was due to the ,v fact that many mail bags were piled .. against the bulkheads when the mail was put on board, the bulkheads thus being reinforced. "There were six life boats on board ' the Sussex. Only two of these were .- swung out ready to lower, at the time C" of the accident. These were the two . forward boats. .t "As to the cause of the explosion, I would not venture an opinion. As we - were leaving Folkestone, we passed a - transport at her pier. If a submarine - was responsible for the damage to the Sussex, it is possible the undersea craft mistook us for this transport-" Mr. Huxley said the Sussex dining .; ealoon was demolished. AMERICAN' WOMAX IS KILLED Captain Quoted as Saying He Saw .1 Torpedo and Shut Down Engine. DOVER. March 25. Charles Crocker, fin American, who was on the Sussex, i- taid today that Miss Elizabeth Bald t win, an American resident of Paris, was killed by the explosion which partly wrecked the steamship. Mr. Crocker said that his cousin. D. H. Crocker, and Miss Baldwin were ' Handing at the bow, leaning over the i. rail when the vessel was struck. Miss Baldwin was killed and D. H. Crocker badly injured and made unconscious, Mr. Crocker said. Asked whether he thought the ship 'ws torpedoed, Mr. Crocker replied: "I couldn't say personally, but I Jieard the captain of the Sussex say he t,. raw a torpedo coming, and that he r- hut down one engine, which resulted ,'. in the vessel's being hit in the bow , instead of amidships. Members of the rew also said that the vessel was tor- pedoed." AMERICAN LIVES ARE LOST Continued From First-Page. ) awaiting us," said Mr. Clavel. "The report of a torpedo crashing into the forward works, where it landed, told us. however, that we had been sub marined. Wireless Apparatus Destroyed. "Efforts were immediately made to rend out a wireless call for help, but this was impossible, as the apparatus Jiad been destroyed, and siren calls were sent out instead.. Meantime all .ihose .aboard the vessel made prepara tions to save themselves. Lifebelts were hastily strapped on by the pas sengers, while the crew were busy low ering the lifeboats. The number of these boats unfortunately was insuffi cient and when they became filled there was nothing else to do but stay on the Sussex. "The deafening 'noise of the ship's siren and the confusion among the crew and passengers, added to the dif ficulties. - . "The sea became rougher and rough er, but before long the warning sounds from the ship's wnlstle brought aid, and in the end there were 15 craft of all kinds surrounding us, picking up the survivors and rendering aid. American Woman Injured. Among me passengers was an Ameri can woman, "Mrs. Hillock (probably Mrs. Hilton), whose name appears in the official list. She waa .with her daughter and she suffered a fractured leg. After receiving first aid treat ment at Boulogne, she was put on a train tor Paris." The text of the French official state ment on the sinking of the fcuseex is: "The British steamer Sussex, which carried about 380 passengers, was tor pedoed- in the Channel on the 24th, by an enemy submarine. "The captain observed a torpedo about 100 meters from the side and im mediately maneuvered to avoid It, but the vessel was struck in the forward part, which was destroyed. "The vessel, however, remained afloat. The fall of the mast destroyed part of the antennae of the wireless: moreover, when an an aerial wire was improvised, the operator by an error reported an incorrect position, which misled the torpedo boats and patrol boats and as a result retarded the ar rival of help. Vesnel Towed to Boulogne. "The patrol boat Mario Therese nev ertheless managed to find the distressed vessel and brought back to Boulogne a majority of the passengers. Others were taken to England by torpedo boat destroyers, which bad arrived at the scene of the disaster at about the same time as the Marie Therese. "The Sussex was towed to Boulogne by a steamer from that port, and now is there in security. "Unhappily the explosion was the be. ginning of a panic among the passen gers, which resulted in some victims. The exact number is not known, but it is estimated to be about 50." No confirmation could be obtained at the Ministry of Marine today that 50 lives actually had been lost in the dis aster, but that estimate was considered likely because it was the women's and children's forward where the vessel struck. A single, narrow companionway led from this saloon. There were only five private cabins on the boat, four on the deck and one between decks, hence the public saloons were crowded. These cross-channel steamers are always full, becaus there are only three crossings weekly. Passengers Jump Overboard. The officials of the Sussex warned the passengers quickly not to be alarmed, but several persons, mostly women, are said to have Jumped over bc rd. Some were drowned and others with life preservers were picked up after considerable delay, in a few cases as much as four hours later. Samuel S. Bemis, of NeW Bedford, Mass., described as a Harvard research man, said today: "I was on deck at the time. The weather was clear and beautiful. I saw a torpedo coming toward the steamer. The wake was plainly and unmistakably visible. "The moment it reached us there was a terrible explosion. Many persons were blown Into the water. I saw some killed before my eyes." Mr. Bemis has made a deposition at the American Embassy. LONDON',. March 25. There were six Americans among the "70 survivors of the Sussex . who reached Dover today on a British destroyer. The majority of the survivors agree with the opinion of the French Admiralty that the Sus sex was torpedoed by a submarine. Americana Are Landed. The Americans landed at Dover were Francis K. Drake, Edward H. Huxley, Edward Marshall, Charles T. Crocker, George H, Crocker and Wilder G. Pen field. G. H. Crocker and Mr. Penfield are in a hospital with fractured skulls. The American survivors reported that Mrs. D. W. Hilton. T.-W. Culbert son and Daniel Sargent had been res cued. Dispatches from Boulogne re port the safe arrival there of John H. Hearley and Samuel S. Bemis. Miss Elizabeth Baldwin was killed by the explosion, according to those arriving at Dover, who say also that Miss Edna Hilton is missing . Nothing has been heard of the other 12 who were aboard the Sussex. How ever, as a. great majority of the res cued passengers were landed at Bou logne, it is possible they may be among them. It is estimated officially that the loss of. life will reach 50. These were either killed by the explosion or drowned when one of the lifeboats capsized. Two passengers, a man and a woman, - both - Belgians, died in a hospital at Dover tonight. The United States Embassy has for warded to the State Department affi davits from Edward H. Huxley and Francis E. Drake concerning their ex periences on the Sussex. Neither Mr. Drake nor Mr. Huxley saw any sign of a torpedo, but they declared the cap tain of . the vessel told several sur vivors that he saw a torpedo coming toward his vessel and that he threw the helm over almost in time to avoid it. DOVER, March 25. Four American survivors of the Sussex mishap have arrived here. They are G. H Crocker, Charles T. Crocker, Edward Marshall and "Wilder G. Penfield. G. H. Crocker and Mr. Penfield are in a hospital with fractured skulls. Charles Crocker and Mr. Marshall are uninjured. Reports received here say that Mrs. Hilton. Daniel Sargent and T. W. Cul bertson were seen aboard & French trawler. It is feared, according to the same reports, that Miss Hilton was drowned whent a lifeboat capsized. As to the cause of the disaster. Mr. Marshall, a. newspaper correspondent, said: "I have no doubt the steamer was torpedoed." SALEM CELLARS FLOODED "Willamette Kises Six Indies From Fall or Inch and a. Half. SALEM. Or., March 25.

HEW TROUBLE SEEN Sussex and Englishman Have Possible Complications WASHINGTON- GETS NEWS Reports Both Vessels "Were Torpe doed and Fact Both Carried Americans Promise Fresh Is sue Willi Central Powers. "WASHINGTON. March 25. rThe chan nel steamer Sussex, damaged yesterday in the English Channel, and the British steamer Englishman, destroyed by an explosion, both carrying American citi zens, were torpedoed, according to con sular reports received by the State De partment today. Flat statements that torpedoes we're responsible were made in both cases, but the consuls did not give the source of their information. Twenty-live Americans were on the Sussex. Whether any of them lost their Uvea or were injured was not estab lished by the official reports, though news dispatches indicated that Amer icans might have been lost. Four Americana, employed as horse-handlers, were aboard the Englishman. None was among those rescued landed at a Brit ish port. New Complication! Poaaible. Coming at a time when the State De partment was awaiting the result of the investigation of the Dutch liner Tubantia and considering affidavits re garding an alleged submarine attack on the French ship Patria. the destruc tion of the Englishman and the damag ing of the Sussex raised again the pos sibility of complications between the United States and the Central European powers. The most important dispatch regard ing the Sussex came from American A'mbassador Sharp at Paris. He report ed that the American consular agent at Dieppe. Walter P. S. Palmer-Samborne, had informed him that the Sussex was torpedoed about six mile's off the French coast while carrying 386 pas sengers and a crew of 45 and that 60 to 80 passengers had been wounded or killed. Ambassador Sharp quoted Samuel Bemis, an American, as saying that he had seen several persons killed in the explosion. Detailed Report Ordered. Ambassador Page at London reported that the British government had in formed him of the disaster and supplied the names of the 25 passengers. Before the dispatch from Ambassa dors Sharp and Page were received, in structions to forward immediately all available details of the Englishman and the Sussex disasters were sent to con sular and diplomatic representatives in England and France. First information regarding the Americans aboard the Englishman was received in a dispatch from Consul Armstrong, at Bristol. 'The fact that the Englishman had carritJd horses to St. Nazaire, France, before starting on her return trip, on which she was destroyed, does not alter the case, in the opinion of officials. The State De partment considers that the transporta tion of horses does not give the ship the character of a government auxiliary. LENTS HAS FLOOD DANGER (Continued Krom First Psge.)
