AMERICAN NURSES
KILLED ON SHIPBOARD
IN GUN PRACTICE
Shell Ricochetted on Water and Landed
Among Group Bound for War Duty
Aboard, Killing Two Women
and Wounding Another.

New York, May 2l.-Two American
nurses, who were members of an ambu.
lance unit on its way for service in
France, were killed yesterday on board
an American steamer when pieces of a
she'll fired by the naval gun crew in prac-
tice ricochetted from the waters surface
and scattered among a group of nurses
and surgeons. A third nurse was se-
riously wounded.
The steamer had sailed Saturday even
ing for Europe With flag half masted
she came into an American port this
morning, bringing the bodies of the dead
nurses The steamer will depart again
at an unnamed time.
The accident happened at about 2:30
Sunday afternoon. The gun at the stern
was being used. The explana tion made
by one of the ships officers was that
when the shell struck the water about
IT'S feet from the vessel the centrifugal
force caused bits of steel to fly back on
shipboard. One of the ships officers who
was standing beside the nurses was not
injured.
The official announcement of the
cause of the accident has been withheld
by both army and navy authorities. One
theory was that the she'll exploded while
It was being loaded.
