Unable to Reach Deck Even
After His Ship Was
Mined
STORY OF SINKING
TOLD BY AN OFFICER
Only One Hatchway Open On Account
of Severe Sterm-Is Sure Ship Was
Not Torpedoed and Kitchener Was
Lost.

LONDON, Jan. 3l.-Kitchener and
his staff did not even reach the deck of
the British cruiser Hampshire after
she struck a mine off the coast of Scot
land one stormy night in June, 1916,
according to a warrant officer who has
just told the story of the sinking to
a correspondent of the Manchester
Guardian.
Questions concerning the sinking Of
the Hampshire have been asked in
parliament because of the persistent
rumor that the vessel had been sunk
by a submarine and Lord Kitchener
has been carried off a prisoner to Ger
many. No detailed statement, how4
ever, has ever been officially given out.
The name of the officer who now tells
| the story has not been disclosed
Four days after the Jutland battle,
| according to the officer, the Hamp-
shire took Lord Kitchener aboard on
| persons on board in the foulest
weather known in that region She
| was escorted by two destroyers who
| were unable to face the storm and re-
turned to port. Everything on board
| the Hampshire was dashed down, and
only one hatchway was left open.
| About s clock in the evening the
ship was shaken by a terrific explo-
| sion and the crew scrambled for the
deck. Officers quickly took their posts
/ but their orders could not be heard
j because of the raging storm and the
terrific sound of escaping steam. I'M
mediately after the explosion there was
another and all the lights went out,
which added to the confusion.
! The officer, with q companion, eut the
lashings of life raft, it being inn
/ possible to launch the boats in the ter.
rife sea, and the raft was slipped over
the side. 1t turned upside down but
finally righted and he with Others
found themselves afoat Almost i'm
| mediately the ship went down, not
more than five minutes after the first
explosion. The officer did not sec LORD
Kitchener ON deck, and 1t is his opin-
1 ion that as only one hatehway was oper
the only men who reached the deel
were those who went that way. AL
though much confused, he recalls try
ing to open n number of other hatch
ways, while trying to reach the decl

!. of the men were washed from the raf
while others died and rolled into til,

Mr.. johnson first discussed tho pucs-
ton whether the state Of West Virginia

cipally for road work and whether this
money should be spent now with high
err cost or withheld until the price or
materials drops. Mr.. Johnson gave it
as his opinion that from an economic
and technical point Of view all money
available should be spent immediately
for hard surface roads and other public
improvements: this opinion from an eco
nonic standpoint is based on III" fact
that we owe il as 4 patriotic duty 10 the

He said il was plainly apparent that
this is impossible with tho closing down
