the vessel all the time. The engines work ing the propellers, however, were out of commission. That the after part of the Sussex did not fill probably was due to the fact that mail bags were piled against the bulkheads.
 There were six 1ifeboats on the Sussex. Only two of these were swung out, ready to lower, at the time of the accident.
 AS to the cause of the explosion, I would not venture an opinion. As we were leaving Folkstone we passed a transport at her pier. If submarine was responsible for the damage to the Sussex it is possible the undersea craft mistook us for this transport If we struck a mine we must have hit it full on the prov of the Sussex
 Speaking of the damage to the Sussex, MT. Huxley said the dining saloon was demolished.
