BURNING WHEN LAST SEEN
BRITISH OFFICER SAYS THE YES
SEL UNDOUBTEDLY WAS
DESTROYED

London. Aug. 90 The Evening
News publishes a bulletin from Las
Palmas, Canary Islands, giving an ac-
count of the sinking of the North Ger
man Lloyd transatlantic liner Kaiser
Wilhelm der Crosse off the coast ox
Africa by the British cruiser High
Filler, which was reported Thursday.
Lieutenant Deane, British army Of
ficer, who was taken prisoner by the
Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse from the
British steamer Galacian on the high
seas, is the authority for the Las Pal
mas story and in an interview he
gives a graphic account Of how the
great liner was destroyed.
Lieutenant Deane was not on board
the German liner, as ne had been sent
over to the collier Arcuai from which
the liner was coaling. When it was
seen that the Kaiser Wilhelm VS.
doomed, the German captain sent h's
sword, his dispatch box and letter
to his wife to the collier. his seer
tars being tbe aniessenser. ffeyfoUs
to doing this the captain of the liner
announced that he would blow up
his command rather than surrender.
When the High Filler opened fire on
the liner Lieutenant Deane continues.
the collier was still fastened to her
by one hawser and owing to some
delay certain prisoners on board the
liner did not get a chance to leave
the ship. The Kaiser Wilhelm was
bow to the High Filler and the British
cruiser had some difficulty in finding
her mark. She maneuvered to get the
broadside on and the ensuing can
nonade lasted for forty minutes. All
the shots from the Kaiser Wilhelm
seemed to be falling short. From the
collier it was seen that she had been
hit three times, and on catching fire
she. ceased replying to the shots from
the British cruiser
Wnen the liner nad DeeH sllenceN
the High Filler also stopped firing.
BY this time the Arucai which had
separated from the finer had gotten
too far away to see anything more
than that she was still burning. The
Germans kept on board the Kaiser
Wilhelm only her officers, her gun
crews and few engineers. The re-
mainder of her men we're transferred
to the collier.
