Warship Which Jiilled Many Due to Undersea Eruption By Associated Press New York, Sept. 9.—Vivid descrip tions of the marine phenomenon which caused the destruction of lh(S United States armored cruiser Memphis, with the loss of about forty of her crew, in the harbor of Santo Domingo, on Au gust 20, were given to-day by witnesses of the* disaster who had arrived on the steamer Iroquois. The conjecture that the disaster was the result of an undersea eruption was strengthened by assertions thut nothing resembling a gale accompanied the sudden disturb ance. Tho theory that the big sras which tossed the 20,000-ton warship on the rocks was caused by an undersea shock transmitted from a disturbance on the preceding day itt Dominica, British West Indies was advanced by Captain Theo dore De Booy, of the American Indian Heve Foundation, an eye-witness of the catastrophe. This theory, said Captain De lJooy, is borne out by the fact that Dominica lies east-southeast of Santo Domingo and the seas threw the Memphis in a west-northwesterly direction ashore. I _ "The strange phenomena," he said, i ' was absolutely new to the experience all who beheld it, including the na tives of the island, accustomed as they are to outbursts of tropical storms. It huu been blowing a hurricane from j 'lie southeast for two days, but on the morning of August 2 9 the sea was i and there was no wind. Then I 'he sea became suddenly turbulent. ] The roadstead became an angry mass of foaming waves in which no small I craft could live. Waves llit-ali Over Funnels "As the fury of the marine disturb ance increased the Meniphi.4 was seen to be dragging her anchor and grad ually being driven ashore. Finaiiy n wave that seemed larger than any that had preceded it lifted up the warship, held her on its summit for a moment and then dashed her down on a sub merged reef within 200 yards of dry | land. From the after ventilators of the cruiser was pouring a cloud of steam. Immense waves were still breaking over her, some of them as high as the tops of her funnels, and the Memphis was shoved ashore until she was onl ( v fifty yards away. An im provised breeches buoy was put in op eration and the men on the wrecked ship were brought ashore, some of them terribly burned from an explo sion of her boilers." Killed and Injured From Memphis on Naval Hospital Ship in Lower Potomac By Associated Press Washington. D. C\, Sept. 9.—The naval hospital ship Solace, bringing I pan of the injured and killed from I he ! cruiser Memphis, recently wrecked, in San Domingo city harbor, arrived in the lower Potomac to-day en route lo ; Washington.
