United States men of.war are lost, and
the German fleet has suffered 20 even

which comes this time. but an official
account of an ocean tragedy IN which
Two American and two German vessels
are totally destroyed ond one Of each

while forty.six American officers and
men and nineiy.six Germans have gone
down to watery graves.
The disastrous storm occurred IN the
harbor Of Apia on the 10th Of March.
more than two weeks ago, and the news
even yet is meager, and the suspense of
those who have dear relations aud
friends in the far-off islands must have
been terrible.
Every means in the power of the
Government, however, will be used to
aid the shipwrecked and the suffering,
and all news of the disaster will be Sc
cured and forwarded to the Naval De
Hprtment as soon as possible for publ.
cation.
The German loss is greater than our
own, and in this common disaster the
two countries which have found in
Samoa cause for III feeling will forget
their differences and unite in one sorrow
over the terrible tragedy which the ele.
ments have wrought with indiscrim-
mating hand upon both.
In this issue of THE CRITIC appears
the dispatch of Admiral Kimberly,
giving the full list of the lost, the
showing is sad enough, though not as
bad as was at first feared.
