INSIDE THE LUTIE
SIXTEEN BODIES LOCKED IN A
DEATH-GRIP.

TUNIS, October 2S.-A CHASTITY sight
was disclosed on finding the French SUBJ
marine Lutin. which sank of Bizerta Oc-
tober 16.
Sixteen bodies have been taken out Of
the vessel. Some of them were much de-
composed. One or two had been attacked
by acids from the batteries. whether be-
fore or after the accident cannot be said
In the fore compartment was found the
body of the commander. Lieut. Phoepon.
His scalp had been torn of. A petty
officer had his arms around the COM
mander's waist holding him in firm grip
A midshipman similarly clasped another
officer, while a sailor clung to the midship-
mans feet. In the rear compartment six
men were found linked SO tightly together
that 1t was very difficult to separate them.
Other bodies were found In the extreme for
ward compartment
The only means of Identification was by
means of objects found on the corpses
Most of the men were barefooted. The in
dications are that they met their death in
stantly.
It Is thought that the Lutin tried to come
to the surface too rapidly and that her
stern consequently struck on the bottom
This caused rivets to start and plates to
burst Six bad leaks were found Ia the hull.
