Park River, n. D., May 13.--Dr. Carl

til a few months ago, was n Of the
passengers on the Inflated liner, Lusi-

he leaped into the sea as the steamer

several terms in the state legislature.
For several months past DR.. Foss had

boiler must have exploded, because an
immense amount of steam and smoke
came from the vessel. AS she finally
disappeared I noticed several boats
still hanging on her sides, attached
to tho blocks. On the whole, there
was more disturbance among the
crew than among the passengers.
can hour before the catastrophe I
was on deck. I noticed that the ship
was being swung about and saw some
thing about a quarter of a mile dis
tant, which looked like a submarine.
We were going slowly. There was
some fog earlier in the day, and |
believed the captain Of the steamer
thought his vessel was safe, as the
ioghorn was being blown. 1t is. my
impression that two Or more subma.
rines attacked the L%usitania."
