LONDON, July IA German subma- tlne 70 miles from the Irish coast on me night of June 27 torpedoed the H. vVO ton hospital ship Llandovery Cas- lle chartered by the Canadian govern ment and in the service of carrying wounded and sick from England to canada. The ship was then on her way to England She had on board 25S persons, so men of the Canadian army medical corps and IA women nurses.
 Only 24, including the captain, are reported saved. The attack was with out warning.
 Gives Fimsy Excuse
 The submarine commander, who or aered the captain, several of his off cers and Major T. Lyon of the medical corps aboard, said he sank the ship because she was carrying American aviation officers and others in the lighting service of the allies. He added later that the vessel was carrying mu- milton stores, because of an explosion which occurred aft.
 All lights were burning when the I.landovery Castle was torpedoed. These included a huge electric cross over the bridge and strings of white and green lights on either side. The fed Crosses on the sides of the vessel were illuminated.
 Many Die in Engine Room
 According to Red Cross information, many were killed in the engine room There is hardly any doubt of this as there was no response 10 Captain Syl- vester's signals from the bridge after the torpedo struck. As the enginemen were either killed or left their posts, there was no one to shut off the power and the ship kept on her way, not withstanding the great holes torn by The torpedo, not beginning to slow down until the water rushed into the boiler room, eXtinguishing the fires
 There Was No Panic
 This added to the confusion in launching the lifeboats. There was no panic. By the time the ship lost her momentum. most of the boats were over the side. Many were unable to reach the boats. ans the ship was sink ing rapidly. They jumped into the sea, and a few were picked up.
 According to information received by .i he Canadian Red Cross here. Major T fLyon from the Llandovery Castle, was forced to stand in the coming tower despite an injured foot while the Ger. ma submarine officers questioned him The Germans insisted that Major Lyor was an aviation officer, notwithstand- tng the officers strenue-- denials.

LORD MERSEY.

Baron Mersey, the distinguished English jurist who presided over the inquiry into the sinking of the Lusi- tania, and brought in verdict to the effect that the German government was guilty of cold -bIooded murder, will be seventy-eight years old to- day. He was born on August 8, 1840, the son of John Bigham, a Liv- erpooI merchant and was educated at Liverpool, Paris and Berlin. For ty-eight years ago, as John Charles Bigham, he began the practice of law. and soon attained great prominence in his profession, especially as an au- thority on maritime law. In 1895 he was elected to the House of Commons as a Unionist, and was member of the South African Committee of that body prior to the Boer war. He was created a knight in 1897, and was elevated to the peerage eight years ago. Lord Mersey first came into prominence in 1912 when he presided over the investigation into the Titanic disaster. In. 1914 he acted as president of the Information al Conference on Safety at Sea, held in London, at which delegates from
 fourteen nations signed a convention laying down regulations for passenger trafFc at sea. Later he came to Can ada as a member of the commission to investigate the sinking of the Elm press of Ireland in the St. Lawrence, a disaster which cost more than 2 thousand lives. Despite his age Bar or Mersey is still active of mind and body, and his conduct of the Lusita- mia inquiry was marked by all his | accustomed vigor and directions.
