7 ONDoN, May 2s.-Two heavy
IL blows were inflicted upon the
British navy yesterday, another
battleship being lost and a naval
auxiliary being blown up. The bat,
tleship, torpedoed and sunk in the Dar
danelles, is the Majestic.
Coming on the heels of the ad,
miralty e announcement of the sinking
on Monday of the battleship Triumph
in the Dardanelles, yesterdays s official
announcement of the loss of the Ma
jestic is felt as a heavy blow, while
following the news of this loss came
that of the complete destruction of the
steamer Princess Irene, being used in
the government service.
Explosion Reaps Heavy Toll
The Pringess Irene was blown up in
the heart Of the nayal base at Sherness,
close to the dock at which the battle
ship Bulwark was mysteriously de-
stroyed by a tremendous interior ex-
plosion. OF the crew of two hundred
and fifty men aboard the steamer, only
one man survives the catastrophe,
while the force of the explosion and
the flying bits of wreckage killed, in
addition to wiping out the crew,
seventy-eight workmen ashore.
The loss of the Princess Irene was
first made public through Lloyd S. The
report was confirmed by the admiralty,
which gave out the figures of the loss
Of life.
The sinking of the battleship Ma
jestic was accompanied with small loss
of life, the admiralty stating that
"nearly every officer and member Of
the crew" was saved. The Majestic
was landing supplies for the land
forces operating on the Galhpoli PENN,
sula when she was torpedoed.
Majestic An Old Ship
This battleship was one of the oldest
of the navy on the active list, having
been laid down in 1895. She was one
of nine battleship ps and gave the name
to the class. She was of $4,000 tons,
mounted four l2.inch and twelve 6.inrh
guns and carried 757 men.
A despatch to the Times from the
Dardanelles states that of the crew of
seven hundred carried by the Triumph,
which struck a floating mine in the
Dardanelles on Monday, four hundred
and sixty were saved.

wise was first In four sports. But only
one was major. This was baseball and

largely matter of opinion. When It is
considered that Cornell won the football

major sports, finished second in a third

from Pittsburgh whose team also went

This throws the subject open to debate.
The defenders of Cornell can point to the
fact that the Ithacans played a harder
schedule than did Pittsburgh. in addition
to which they barred freshmen. Pitts
burgh used tirst-year men. These two
points throw the balance of the argu-
