Washington, May 22.-some Of the
shells aboard the armed American lin,
ers Mongolia and st. Louis to be used
in resisting submarine attacks were
made during the Spauish-Amerlcan
war.
This came to light today when Ad'

caused the death of two American
nurses on the armed merchantmen

the merchant craft, the report sad
were made during the Spanish-Amerl'
can war.
Experts found that the shells uscd
aboard the Mongolia and the st. Lou,
were not faulty, none was tampereo

according to the report.
