FIRST BIG V. S. WARSHIP TO GO DOWN

Promptness in answering relief calls is believed to have resulted in the savins ot a majority of those
• hoard the San Diego, sunk yesterday afternoon. The sinking occurred ten miles off Fire Island, located
Sfty miles from New York City. The vessel was well filled with men being carried from the Portsmouth.
N. H.. Navy Yard, to New York City. The San Diego was an old model vessel. In January. 1915. nine men
were killed on it when fv> explosion occurred on board while undergoing the annual speed test In Pacific
waters. ,

cruiser went down the men sang
"The Star Spangled Banner."
The statement disclosed that five
or six mines were destroyed last
night in the vicinity of the sinking
and that no reports have been re
ceived of a submarine near there.
That there was little if any loss of
life is indicated by the fact that the
ship was abandoned in good order,
all hands remaining at their posts
until ordered to take to the boats.
The department still is without in
formation as to whether there was
loss of life, though it is known that
nearly all of the officers and men of
the crew have been landed by rescue
steamers.
There was no disorder on the cruis
er. the captain said, every man tak
ing his station as if in ordinary drill.

SATURDAY EVENING,
yesterday before noon, as well as to
the loss of life, if any, was lacking
here early to-day.
Thirty-one sailors who were land
ed at Point O'Woods on Long Island
yesterday said a torpedo had struck
the warship amidships, following,
which two other explosions occurred, j
Other survivors, among 300 who
arrived at this port on a tanker last
night were reported to have slid
that either a coast defense mine ori
an internal explosion caused the ex-]
plosion. Other steamships with sur
vivors abroad, were expected to a.r- j
rive at New York or other nearby
ports during the day.
Survivors Certain Sub Was Seen
Some of the survivors who were,
landed at Po nt O'Woods were sure
that a submarine had been seen and
one declared a shot had gone home]
and destroyed the undersea craft
but an officer and most of the otheri
sailors were confident no submarine I
had been seen.
Varying statements have been
made as to tlie loss of life. Some of
the sailors said many were killed
and others hurt In the two explo
sions, but that all who escaped
death or injuries by this cau.se had
been rescued.
The sailors landed from the tanker
later were taken to the Brooklyn
Navy yard where requests for in
formation were referred to the Navy
Department at Washingaon.
Cruise Opens Fire
Within a few seconds after the
first explosion, the cruiser, according
to the sailors, opened fire with sev
eral guns at objects which were
taken for periscopes.
The cruiser sank rapidly and dis
appeared fifteen minutes after the
first explosion. It went down so
rapidly, according to survivors, that
hundreds of the crew did not have
time to get to boats and were forced
to plunge over the rail into the wa
ter. where they clung to improvised,
rafts until picked up by lifeboats."
All agreed that the discipline on
board the warship was magnificent
and worthy of the best traditions ol'
the Navy. .
The quartermaster, according to
survivors, remained at his post until
it was too late to save himself or
be saved, and calmly saluted nun
dreds of his comrades as he went
down with the ship. A jacftie climb
ed the mast and rescued the cruiser's
colors. Th a flag, carefully preserved,
was brought ashore in one of the
small boats at Point O'Woods.
Heavy Firliyr at Sea
Immediately after the accident
great naval activity was observed
which seemed to strengthen the re
port that the San Diego had been the
victim of an attack by a U-boat. De
stroyers. patrolboats and airplanes
were reported to be taking part in
what seemed to be a search for un
dersea craft. Sounds of heavy fir
ing at sea were heard by residents
at various points on Long Island last
night.
Reports were in circulation that
other ships had been attacked, but
there has been no certification of
these rumors.
Washington. July 20.—Belief 'hat
the cruiser San Diego was sunk by
a torpedo is expressed in a dispatch
to-day from the chief of staff of crui
ser forces to the Navy Department.
dispatch follows:
No Torpedo Seen
"The captain of the San Diego re
ports that he is inclined to the be
lief that the ship was sunk by tor
pedo. There are no conclusive facts,
however, on which to base a definite
opinion at present in view of follow
ing circumstances:
"I—No torpedo was seen.
"2 —No convincing evidence that
periscope was seen.
"3—No submarine appeared, in
spite of the fact that three unarmed
rescue, ships were in the vicinity for
about two hours.
"4—Ship was struck on port side
abaft beam, which discourages mine
theory."
Make "Em Pay
When the first survivors landed
at Point o' Woods. Fire Island, the
first question they asked was for a
telegraph office. While they were
crowding in line to wire their fam
ilies. Charles M. Nash, superintend
ent of the Point o' Woods Associa
' tion, took charge of the arrange
ments to care for the boys them-
(selves, most of them being only par-
I tially clad.
One young chap stepped ashore
1 dressed in a broad grin and a bit of
j sacking. Another wore a piece of
i sacking.
I A third was shaved on only one
| siele of his face.
"We were just g.etting fixed up
for New York," this chap said. "We
i expected to be on Broadway in an
| other three or four hours. Every -
! body was singing and kidding and
I thinking of nothing but a good time J
| ashore, except the fellows on watch. ]
J Then right out of what looked like
' an empty ocean we got it."
Risked Life to Save Flag
; While Mr. Nash was having a
• big dinner prepared for the sur- j
j vivors. the cottagers were getting
] clothing for them. By the time they
i had eaten, which was about 5 p. m.,
I outfits were ready for every one.
And when they left here in a
patrol boat about 7 p. m.. one of
the lads held up a bundle, which,
unrolled, revealed the damp but
still bright colors of the flag of the
San Diego.
"He rlekeei his life to save that."
one of his fellows called. And the
throng of cottagers and hotel guests
who had lined up to cheer, got all
I choked up and clapped their hands.
The boys, who had come ashore
singing "The Sfcir Spangled Ban
i ner." went away Silently. They .too,
seemed to be made voiceless for the
, moment by the sight of' the colors.
Before they had gone aboard "he
i New York Navy Yard, however
| New oYrk Navy Yard, however,
j they all had said over and over
i again to every one with whom they
j talked that they could not get back
i[ to another ship quick enough and
■ get after the Germans soon enough.
"We will make 'em pay!" they
j said.

Negro Troops Win
Crosses For Bravery
l.rnintonn, Pa.. July 20. Lieu
tenant James Black, formerly of Lew
istown, now in the front trenches in
France, where he has been fighting
the Boche for more than a year, says:
"It is a mistake for the colored peo
ple of the United States to feel their
boys are being shoved to the front
against their will. The fact is, it is
hard to keep them from going too
far. Only yesterday two colored
troopers were called before the en
t tire regiment while a prominent
French general pinned crosses of
i honor on their breasts and kissed
I them on both cheeks. These men will
• be sent homf on a furlough to tell
their own story."
