Wounded Ticonderoga Survivors
Bring Tale Of Hun Sea Outrage
All but Seventeen of Ships Crew of 81 Were Shot to
Death as They Climbed Over Side of Sinking
Vessel in Mid-Atlantic

AN ATLANTIC PORT, Oct. 10--Sev-
enteen men from the sunken American
steamship Ticonderoga, wounded and
III. brought to this port to-day q story
OF Hun atrocity on the high seas that
has not been eoualled since the sinking
OF the Lusitania. They are all that is
ieft OF ships complement of 191 men.
!Ae lost ones having been shot to pieces
BY the submarines guns as they
climbed over the side of their sinking
vessel.
The Ticonderoga, which was east
bound with convoy that left America
on September rs. met with engine trou
Bile and was forced to drop away from
from catching up with the other ves- ,as-
sells, and on the following day she fell
victim to a German submarine, which
battered her decks and men. She was
attacked at daybreak about LOO miles
east of the American coast.
The first greeting she got from the
Hun pirate was a torpedo which did
little damage. Instantly the Ticonder-
oga's gun crews were at their stations,
but had fired no more than five shots
when the raider covered her with

shrapnel shells from her two big guns
at range of one mile.
Within ten minutes the Tcondcroga
was helpless target. The first two
or three shots from the submarine shot
the forward gun away and the after
gun met like fate few minutes later.
lhe skipper ordered his men to the
iifeboats, but the order could not be
oheyed. Shrapnel bursting like hail
storm had riddled them, and the help
less sailormen dropped bleeding and
dying as they sought the sea as a ref
uge. Only one lifeboat of the eight
aboard was seaworthy, and into this
tumbled dying and wounded men.
One raft was launched from the off
side, but as soon as it came into view
1t was raked by shells from the sub
marine.
One Of the seamen who had escaped
unhurt swan out to the submarine,
which had now come up within a few
hundred yards, and shouted: an Gods
name, stop this brutality.'
A German lieutenant, who stood bv
the coming tower, told him in plain
English that if he did not swim back
he would shoot him.

I've had the only good boat aboard.
There were seventeen of US in it, and
we chanced to drift near to the sub
marine. We we're ordered to come
alongside and make fast. We stayed
there and watched those savages plug
ging away with their shrapnel at our
comrades on tho deck Of the Ticonder
oga. The U-boat commander asked
one of our men several questions which
he refused to answer. Then, without
warming, the big craft submerged and
the snapping of our line was the only
thing that prevented our going down
with her.
