It also was announced by the min
istry of marine at Valencia.
A fleet of government bombers
swarmed over the Espana, raining
explosives on her. One struck square
ly amidships., official sources report
ed, and the vessel disappeared quick
ly and completely beneath the waves-
The government bombers reached
San Under only yesterday, brought by
the Valencia government's minister

It was by far the most Important
naval Incident of the war. The 10,

largest warships of the Spanish navy.
The Jaime I. the other large dread

Valencia government.
Reports to msny shore points plac

For months the Espana has har

a captured coal boat and the next
day turned her 13-lnch guns on the

sea.
The Espana sank three quarters
of an hour after the first bombs hit
her.
Just as the battleship fosmed to
the side of the velssco to help her
seize the British vessel, fhe alarm
was sounded ashore. Rapidly the
government planes took off from
San tender, down the coast west of
BUbso.
They roared In formation across
the trio of ships bobbing In the bar;
