 Sims Report

WaSnlngJOn, DecemDef S. Additional reports from Vice Admiral Sims today ! began to unfold the story of the torpedoing of the de- stroyer Jacob Jones, but did not lessen the toll of lives lost with the ship. Only A of no or more officers and men aboard are known to have survived, including one unidentified man picked up and carried off by the sub- marine that struck the blow.
 Today's reports added to the list of dead Ensign Stanton F. Kalk, a young officer, whose name did not appear<on the first roster of the ships company. He died of exposure. The dispatches gave no further details of the escape of Lieutenant Commander Bagley and the other survivors, but they contained the names of seventeen of the rescued in addition to those an- nounced last night. Secretary Daniels issued this statement:
 Additional information received from Admiral Sims today reveals the fact that fba A.1D D. m. on December 6. She began to set- tie aftSand finally sank at 4:29
 U-BOAT NOT SEEN

 ADDITIONAL SURVIVORS
 The following survivors were not in the list of enlisted personnel given out yes terday:
 seamen Chester B. Lanen, emergency address not given; Fireman Howard A. Mover, mother, Rebecca Mover White N haven, Pa; Fireman Charles A. Mason X father Charles Mason. Westlynn, Mass
 cfficials here entertain little hope that more survivors will be found alive The ,,itter cold which probably was the cause of Ensign Kalk's death makes 1t improp- ahia that others who may have escaped nnd floated about on rafts or wreckage tAro,gh the night could have survived such exposure.
 ALL ELEMENTS OPPOSED
 Everv clement worked against the ,,.n of inc destroyer. The report in d,cates that the craft stumbled into IA path of the destroyer by unlucky chance and that the torpedo went home ~ Isuch a vital spot that the vessel was sinking even as the flare or the ex- plosion died out, Night was at nanu There was no time to make provision against the cold and the sea as the .,crew leaped to the life rafts Many probably had died with Gunner Hood in the explosion or the steam bursts that undoubtedly followed 1t. U-BOAT WAS CAREFUL The U-boat commander made sure before he exposed his craft that the destroyer had gone down. He took nc chances of g last shot from her guns which might send him and his vesse also to their reckoning. Probably the single man saved by the submarine was taken aboard because the subma' rine officer desired information as thu identity of the vessel he had sunk.
 The vicinity of the tragedy was no a safe place for the U-boat The Ger mans could not know what rescuins vessels might be speeding up in an swer to radio call from the stricker
