I'VE desire to express sincere
condolences and sympathy with

Coroner Hornan said that the
hrst torpedo fired by the German
submarine did serious damage TO
the lusitania, but that, not salts
fed with this, the Germans had
discharged another torpedo. The
second torpedo, he said, must
have been more deadly, because il
went right through the ship, has
