I Hundred Bombs Dropped by Raiders On British Coast— Reports of 36 Casualties are Made. London.— The Zeppelin L-20 has been completely destroyed and driven ashore on the western side of Hafso Firth, Norway, according to advices from Stavanger. Some of the crew were rescued. It is said the Zeppelin is the twenty-fifth lost since the war began. The Zeppelin L-20 passed north of Sandnaes alxiut 10 o’clock in the morn ing, says a Reuter dspatch from Sta vanger. She was flying at a low alti tude and was in a damaged condition. Five or six men were seen to jump from the airship. Boats put out to their assistance, and the commander and one seaman were rescued and taken to a hospital. The Zeppelin then was driven over the hilltops against a hillside. Its af ter-body broke in two and part o f it fell to the ground. Some of the crew jumped or were hurled out. The Zeppelin then rose a little and was driven westward, but the bag of the dirigible collapsed in the center and tljp airship descended rapidly. A torpedo-boat which had been fol lowing along the coast went to its as sistance and rescued three men still in the cabin. A fourth man had jump ed out shortly before. Of the rescued men three officers and two non-commissioned officers were brought ashore; the whereabouts of the rest of the crew is not known. The Zeppelin was destroyed and driven ashore on the western side of the Firth, near its outlet to the sea. The Zeppelin air raid on the north east coast of ■ England and southeast coast o f Scotland Thursday resulted in 36 casualties. This announcement was made officially.
