 bers of the crew aboard the vessel at the time the torpedoes were fired, which totaied according to the best in-
 formation obtainable 261O, total number known to have been rescued does not exceed 65S The total list of casualties is declared by the admiralty to be 1852.

 out by survivors four torpedoes were | fired at the vessel of which two struck. I One torpedo. it is asserted, took effect Iabout fifty feet from the extreme point
 of the bow. the other striking almost 1squarely in the center of the engine room.

 buted to the fact that the

 the crushing impact of the torpedoes
 prevented the lowering of life boats in time 10 enable the passengers to
 escape. In addition it is declared that
 the larger portion of the passengers
 were at luncheon at the time of the

Lusitania Not Provided With Escorts

LONDON, May S.-Thc British Ad- miralty is again subjected to q storm .of criticism for failing to provide a proper escort for the Lusitania when entering the dangerous waters adjacent .O the British coast.

It is declared that the failure of the Admiralty to safeguard commerce has resulted in many losses to British shipping which could have been avoided if proper methods of pro-
 lection had been afforded. Lord Ber-

OHIO CITIES FACE FLOOD

Dayton, o., Feb. with the Sec
ond anniversary of the devastating
floods Of March, 1913, less than two
months away, Dayton, Hamilton and
other cities in the Great Miami river
valley today faced the exact situa-
ton that led up to the previous dis
asters with flood prevention work
practically untouched.
Lengthy Htigations in the courts
have tied up all movements for the
safety Of these cities. The Great
Miami, fed by the winter thaw, has
risen from four to six feet within the
past 4S. hours. At Dayton ice foes
are being dynamited and men are
patrolling the river banks and levees.
At Hamilton early today a temporary
bridge was destroyed when an ice jam
went out. Unless a freeze comes,
serious floods are probable.
