How Ships Sink.

Nearly every class or design Of YES
sci is said to sink in a particular way.
For instance. the old type of single-bot-
tom steamer. with few or no bulkheads
almost invariably founders on more
or less of an even keel, which means
that they sink level.
The case of modern vessel, which
IS built with numerous subdivisions,
founders with her bow or stern high
out of the water; or with 4 heavy list
TO one side The hulkheads prevent
the water which enters the vessel from
finding the level; consequently, when
one particular portion of the ship is
full of water while the remainder is
practically water-tight. that part which
is water-laden sinks first.

that the British French and Italians holding the
