At a. NJ. on the morning of the

encampmerts on shore. The direction.
however. was poor. and no casualties
resulted. An attempt tn land de-
tachment IF men to fire the custom
house was also prevented by Italian
batteries.
BY this time an Italian squadron
had been apprsed Of the presence OF
the enemy ships and reached the
harbor. in the cnga gement which en-
sued the Lika. the flagship OF the
Austrians. was torpedoed and sank
with the explosion of her ma gaines
taking with her Commander Fincer

The Triglav was first disabled by
shots. Her sister ships attempted to
tow her to safety but outside of the
harbor were forced to abandon her,
and she was sunk by the pursuing
squadron.
The Austrian attack came entirely
without warning except that scouting

town for several days, and charges
are made that the sailors Of the Greek
ship were fred at after they had left
