SAVED FROM THE SINKING LUSITANIA: SOME OF THOSE WHO ESCAPED MURDER BY GERMANY'S SUBMARINE SAVAGES.

Mr. Ernest Cooper, a well-known Canadian journalist, carrying Helen Smjtlie, whom he bucceeded in rescuing. Mr. Cooper was one of the fewpeople on board who saw the pirate craft' Martin Mannion, a cripple, who was in the water for more than four hours. This man had little to covet him except a blanket. He is without boots.

Dr. Page, the American Ambassador, arriving at Euston to meet the survivors.

Driving away from Euston yesterday morning. Many of the passengers wore borrowed clothes, and these two girls are clad in British waims belonging to Army officers. Neither of them had a hat.

Though saved themselves, they arc gucfstricken at the loss of dear ones.

These are some of the men and women who have survived the sinking of the Lusitania and the blood lust of the Kaiser and his Huns. Each and all of these peoplemen, women and childrenhave been the victims of a deliberate and premeditated outrage against humanity. Heartrending scenes were witnessed during the week-end on the ar-

rival of the survivors. There were incidents of sudden and ecstatic joy when friends and relatives found themselves again united, and many scenes of tragic realisation that loved ones had been thrust through the gates of death and would be seen this side of the grav no more*

Pitiful Story of Mother Who Committed Her Dead Child to the Sea.
T h e pitiful little story of how a Bristol mother committed h e r dead baby to tlie sea was told by Mrs. E o s e L o u d e n , of Toronto, w h o , together with h e r daughter Elsie, were rescued by a Spaniard, n a m e d Vineenti Egana. " A brave m o t h e r , " she said, " h a d clasped h e r little one to h e r h e a r t for two h o u r s before we took h e r from t h e water. " Just aa we got hex to the raft on whicli -we were her baby girl closed its tiny eyes in her arma. " Almost overcome with exhaustion the mother caught hold of tlie aido of our boat, the lifeless mite still close to her heart, and when we got her into the boat sbe could hardly speak. "T'or a few moments her eyea were centred on her baby. Then, lifting the little one in her arms, she turned to those in the boat, and, in a tearful voice simply said, ' L e t me bury my baby.' " Within a few BGCOTKIS the almost naked body of the child floated peacefully on the aea. ' There was one little t o u c h of subdued h u m o u r to relieve our gloom amid these terrible scenes. " O n e m a n we picked u p was wearing a coat which had been lent to h i m by a steward. " I r e m a r k e d as we drew h i m aboard : ' Well, steward, I ' m so glad you are saved.' " ' T h a n k you, m a d a m , ' h e rejalied, a n d .just then I caught sight of t h e fashionable yellow boots and spats h e was wearing.

' T h e r e were m a n y instances of tlie greatest heroism by officers a n d m e n , b u t there was absoIritely no discipline or organisation. There was some excuse for this owing to t h e rapidity with which t h e steamer was settling down. _ " T h e first ship's boat that was filled did not include more than two or three women. Most of the occupants'were male steerage passengers,' and the boat broke away from the davits and smashed as it fell into the ocean, drowning moat of the occupants. "* The second, boat also heavily loaded, suffered the same fate. " T h e ship had so Hated that many of the remaining boats on the opposite side turned inwards, and I vmderatand that some could not be launched, The vessel went over to the starboard side, and soon the sea was practically level with tho top deck on this side. " J u s t about this time I found myself n e a r a boat which was already t h r e e - p a i t s filled with women a n d children a n d m e n . " Quite n e a r m e two women a n d a child were standing helplessly, v One of t h e m with t h e child overcame h e r .hesitation, a n d , taking a flying leap,, landed safely in t h e boat.

, G, KESSLER'S STORY
OF HIS BATTLE WITH SEA,
Sole Survivor of Boatload of SixtyNine Times Capsized in Tfiree Hours,
A dramatic story of his experiences is told by Mr. George Kessler, t h e well-known American, who h a s a h o u s e at Bourne E n d . H e was t h e sole passenger o u t of a boatload of fifty or sixty to win h i s way to safety. Mr. Kessler said to The Daily Mirror : " I was standing o n t h e deck amoking. I saw no s u b m a r i n e , b u t I distinctly saw t h e wake of the torpedo as it came r u s h i n g a t u s . T h e time was exactly 2.5, for I h a d m y watch i n my h a n d at t h e time. " I felt no alarm, nor^did any of t h e saloon passengers. We were living in a fool's paradise, disbelieving t h a t torpedoes could badly injure a vessel like t h e Lusitania. ' " We began quietly p u t t i n g t h e women in t h e boats, b u t we did t h a t u n d e r the spirit of convention. None of U3 believed i t w a s necessary. " T h e r e was a s u d d e n list as I was helping some women into a boat, a n d I was thrown into the boat, which was not yet lowered, being about 50it. above t h e waiter. "SLIPPED UNOeR WATER." " B u t when we reached tho surface of t h e water, a b o u t a m i n u t e a n d a half afterwards, t h e Lusitania was only about 20ft. out of t h e water. H a r d l y h a d we got t h e boat clear of t h e falls t h a n s h e slipped u n d e r t h e water with a horrifying suddenness. " "When I came to the surface not a trace of my fellow-occupants of the boat could be seen. I swgMi on and on for more than half an hour.

Unreserved Satisfaction" at Crime That Has Shocked the World. LIES AS EXCUSES.

Official G e r m a n y rejoices a t t h e sinking of the Lusitania. A n d G e n u a n s , whose emotiona are officially directed, i s therefore rejoicing, too, at t h e c u l m i n a t i n g crime of t h e U pirates. The following extracts from t h e i n s p i r e d Cologne Gazette, quoted by Reuter, sliow t h o attitude of t h e H u n s ' towards t h e 1,500 o d d victims of their callous brutality : The news of the sinking of the Lusttania w i l l be received among the German people with unreserved satisfaction. It proves to Englishmen a n d the whole world tltat Germany is i n earnest with her s u b m a r i n o war, a n d t h a t this weapon o ours is quite a s terrible a n d painful to the euemy as o u r 17in. guns.

They will feel how t h e reprisals whicli we take for t h e contemptible h u n g e r war w h i c h they a n n o u n c e d against u s t a s i e . They will, of course, raise a violent oUtcry about t h e so-called barbaric German warfare which brings d e a t h a n d . danger to guiltlesa non-combatants, b u t they will say nothing about the fact t h a t t h e Lusitania h a d on board a n a b u n d a n c e of war material for E n g l a n d , a n d , moreover, was armed with at least two Sin. g u n s .

A NATION RUN AMOK.

T H E NEWS that the week-end has brought concerning the massacre of the lAisitania's passengers tends only to colour th:ifc crime yet more deeply. Not one single extenuatto history as a German ing circumstance has been brought to light. T h e tragedy is presented palling, and the calculated murder on a scale that is a p " peaceful p e o p l e , " of whom we have heard all too much, are found to be applauding the foul act of. the murderers. I n the face.of a crime of this magnitude we are at first numbed. I n our revulsion a t the brutality a n d cowardice of it all we are unable to see clearly its utter baseness, a n d we ask first of all what is the use of it t o the Germans ? .In all crimes we look first for the motive. Germany, it would seem, has nothing to gain by giving a hideous example to the whole world of her abandoned and savage policy. On the contrary, she alienates any remnant of sympathy that can possibly have been left among the neutral nations, with her causfe. T h e sinking of t h e Lusitania a n d the taking of 1,500 lives wi'l not prevent the " sailing of other passenger steamers from America or a n y other country overseas to British ports.,. T h e outward bound "Atlantic liners sailed as usual on Saturday. T h e r e c a n h a v e - b e e n b u t o n e rootlve, a n d that revenge. Germany has cast every moral obligation to the winds in a blind passion of revenge against not only her enemy countries but the whole world that has dared to oppose her desires. A nation run amok iSj happily, an event new to history. T h e G e r m a n .Vampire is t h e first n a t i o n t o c l a i m this unenviable description; it is the duty of the world and of civilisation to see to it that, her case be unique. I t has been said often enough, but never before realised in this country, that the German will stop at nothing. H e r treaties - are worthless, her promises of no accqunt, her obligations non-existant. S h e is an outlaw rac,e among the peoples of the earth. She has made treaties probably >vith every nation in the world.; but what reason has any,nation, after the events of the past ten months, to think that those treaties would ever be respected? T h e German's word, spoken, written or implied, is to-day a thing not w^orthy of one moment's consideration; a German's oath will go down to posterity as a byword for all that is false and corrupt. F o r us our duty, is plain. I t is not to t a l k o f r e p r i s a l s y e t ; i t is t o p u t f o r t h e v e r y imit o f strength t h a t is in u s t o crush this nation of assassins ih the interests of progress and humanity. O n l y . b y crushing it utterly can we lay hold of the men-responsible for the filthy deeds that have been committed by, German arms.

HUN FIEND LAWHS AT PYING MEN;

Gas Tortures Amuse Foe \yh<)i Life Was Spared by British.
"The scenes that have bean enacted durlnf the- last few, days, the eight of their oomradei crawling about in agony,- moaning for wate^ dying in their tracks like poisoned vermin, .has aroused a.feeling in our-troopsand, it is to be hoped, through the British Empirewhich, however terrible the struggle before us. will not allow us to rest until we have exacted full retribution from those responsible for these honors." The above is a striking passage from the latest descriptive account from the front by " l^ye-WltOn May 5 clouds of gas suddenly issued from the German trenches at Hill 60, evidently ejected urtder, great pressure. The fumes forced us to evacuate our trenches, whereupon the Germans rushed the hill, but immediately came under a concentrated fire from our artillery, which checked them. > ; In tlie confused fiKhting which etiaued they followed up their Buooesa, and at one time forced
tlieir way in the direction of Zillobeke aa far aa our' supporting line, and also took some trenohM north of the njll, A counter-attack was soon orsaniaed which drove, them from all the captured trenches except those on, the crest of the hiU and two, ehort lengtha north-eaat of it. A little before midnight our troops raada another couilter-attaok and succeeded in regaining the whole position; but they were again driven off by fresh clouda'of gas.

animates the Germans. During the fighting north of Ypres a Prussian , officer's life was spared by our men, even in the heat of a charge, and in spite.of the,exasperation caused by the enemy's latest method of making war, and he was inade a prisoner. While he was being escorted to the.rear the party passed some of bur men who were lying in agony on the ground, fighting for breath, their lungs filled with fumes. He stopped, looked at them, burst out laughing and, pointing fo the prostrate forms, said: " What do, you think of that? " There have b^en not a few wounded prisoners,
also chiefly of t h e P r u s s i a n Guard defeated i n

while surly ingratitude and rudeness on the part of patients is not at all uncommon. MORE NAMES OF SURVIVORS.

This sketch was drawn for The Daily Mirror by a survivor, Mr. A. J. Byington, and illustrates how the Lusitania went to her doom. The vessel was struck by three torpedoes, and some survivors are of opinion that more than one pirate was concerned in the attack. The third torpedo blew up many of the boats.
