FIND GERMAN OFFICERS AND
GOVERNMENT GUILTY OF
MURDEROUS ATTACK
CAPTAIN TURNER Is WITNESS
Testifies, Describing the Catastrophe
and Saying He Could Only Obey
Orders Given Him.

Kinsale, Ireland.-The coroner's
jury investigating the deaths of five
persons drowned when the Cunarder
Lusitania was sunk by German sub
marine off the coast of Ireland last
Friday, returned a verdict here charg-
ing 'tthe officers of said submarine
and Government of Germany, under
whose orders they acted, with the
crime of wholesale murder before the
tribunal of the civilized world"
Captain Turner of the Lusitania was
the principal witness. He told the
jury he did not see any submarines
either before or after his ship was tor
pedoed. He was on the bridge when
his vessel first was struck and i'm
mediately gave orders for the lower
ing of the boats and the placing of
the women and children in them.
Captain Turner said that after the
warnings at New York that the Lusi-
tania would be torpedoed he did not
make any application to the Admir-
atty for an escort. eft is their bust

emphasis.
The verdict of the coroner's jury
follows:
1--WE find that the deceased met
death from prolonged immersion and
exhaustion in the sea eight miles
south-southwest of Old Head of Kin
sale, Friday, May 7, 1915, owing to
the sinking of the Lusitania by tor
pedoes fired by German submarine.
1--WE find that this appalling crime
was committed contrary to 1nterna-
tional law and the conventions of all
civilized nations.
1--WE also charge the officers of
said submarine and the Emperor and
Government of Germany, under whose
orders they acted, with the crime of
wholesale murder before the tribunal
of the civilized world.
1--WE desire to express sincere con-
dolence and sympathy with the rela-
tives of the deceased the Cunard
Company and the United States,
many of whose citizens persisted in
this murderous attack on an unarmed
liner"

List of Identified Dead.

New York.-Relatives and friends
of passengers missing from the list
of Lusitania survivors again besieged
the Cunard offices. Some were reward
ed when the company posted revis-
ed list of survivors and the hopes of
others were dashed when another list
was posted containing the names of
identified dead.
While hope was not entirely aban-
doned that more survivors might be
reported, line officials feared the toll
of dead would not materially be re-
duced below present figures.
A list of identified dead given out
follows:

DON'T WASH YOUR

When you wash your hair, don't

which is very injurious, as it dries

pure and entirely greaseless. It's

thing else all to pieces. You can get
this at any drug store, and a few
