 Miss Hale thinks. however, the dis aster was caused by a mine.
 We were about half way across" she said, "when we were struck. The water was quite smooth. I think there must have been one hundred persons lost and injured. I should say ten or twelve of this number were Amer jeans.
 We did all what we could to help the injured. It was ten hours before help arrived"
 The majority of survivors of the Sussex who have reached France. as- sert the vessel was torpedoed and there is no question of any warning having been given. None of them saw q mine or indication of one, where as, the greater part of those whose stories have been given assert that they saw the wake of a torpedo

LONDON. March 27.-Although there still IS some uncertainty as to the loss of life in the disaster to the cross channel steamer Sussex last Friday, there no longer is any doubt that the death list is much larger than the earlier advices indicated. The latest figures compiled in London show as many as 102 persons missing, including five Americans.
 The Sussex had 43G persons aboard, of whom the agent have been ac- counted for:
 l.ande. a, D.,.i. .- ...al.-i Roulogne. 25O; dead at Boulogne, :; dead at Dover, g. This is the total accounted for
 The list of missing may be slightly decreased by the fact that some of their journey without reporting safe.
 The casualties occurred in two ways-first. in the explosion, when the ship was struck, and second, by drowning, when two lifeboats capsized ard only few of their occupants could be rescued. Captain Mouffett, together with several of the officers and a number of the passengers as sert that the ship undoubtedly was torpedoed.
 Most of these witnesses, including the captain, declare they saw the tor pedo approaching when it was at a distance of about 100 yards. Unfor tunately, they say. there was not time enough to avoid it. although the captain made an attempt to effect the escape of his vessel by a quick man. euVer.
 The explosion killed or wounded several men in the engine room and some occupants of the saloon directly above it. Injury to the wireless ap- paratus prevented calls for help reaching the steamers in the vicinity and it was several hours before as- sistance arrived
 The Sussex now lies in shallow wa ter in Boulogne harbOr. She will not be a total loss. Most of the damage is above the water line. The main shock of the explosion was spent in blowing off the forepart of the ship. The disaster is graphically described by a Russian passenger, l. N. Lips hart, who says he jotted down the facts in regular sequence in his diary while they happened. The diary says: Friday, 1:30 D. m. Left Follle-
