Cemetery at Queenstown, Ireland
LONDON, May 11.—The verdict
rendered by tho Coroner's jura at
laineale, Ireland, whieh investigated
the deaths resu)ting from the torpee
doing of the Lusitania follows:
"We find that thedeceased met
death from prolonged Immersion and
exhaustion in the sea., eight miles
southwest of Old Head of Kinsale.
on Friday, May 7,1915, owing to the
sinking of the Lusitania by torpedoes
fired by a german submarine. •
"We find that this appalling crime,
was committed contrary to, interna-
tional law and the conventions of all
civilized natious.
...also charge the officers of
said; eubmarine, and the Emperor
and poyernment of Germany, under
vimtabor orders they acted, 'with the
of wholesale murder before the
teibanal:Of the civilized world.

latives of the deceased, the Cunard.
,ilathat aihdathealthitbh' Stnittle.,. Many 9fe
wliose citizens perished in this mur-
derous attack on an unarmed liner,"
This verdict was returned yester-
day by the Crone -"s jury which for
two days has been hi:tiding an inquest
over the bodies of five of the Lusi-
tania's victims: Tac verdictewas or-
dered by Coronet' John Horgan after
hearing the testimmay of survivors
and of W. T. Turner, captain of the
Lusitania.
The Cunard Co. last night made
the following offIcial announcement:
"The number ef easeengers aboard.
the Lusitania was 1,265. Tbe crew
numbered 65'1. 'Lae survivors num-
ber 772. The death roll numbers 1,-
134. These aures are subject to
slight variation?'
In the quiet little cemetery which
lies along a green,flower-decked hill
between the !arbor and the ancient
Irish city of Queenstown, 140 victims
of the Lusitania tragedy were yes-
terday laid to,rest. Of these 76 had
been identified. There were 64 whose
relatives either bad not been able to
recognite their.faces, swollen, by the
action of the water,' or crushed by the
impact of the torpedo, which liter-
ally blew the 'entire bottom out of
the great liner. or who were strang-
ers in a strange land. They were
held to the -very last, long atter the
arrival or the afternoon train, in the
hope that realtives or friends might
arrive and. their identity be learned.
Queenstown., a city of mourning,
left nothing undone to show its syme
pathy and sorrow. Each coffin was
flag -decorated. On each was placed
-a bunch of flowers, a sorrowang tri-
bute of the women of southern Ire-
land. A military escort was provid-
ed to tbe cemetery.

kets, tiny littlethings that one man
might easily toss above his head,
were tenderly carried out into the
sunlight and alacea one alongside
another.
The survivors do not agree as to
whether the submarine fired one or
two torpedoes) A few say they saw
the periscope, though many attest to
tracing the wake of foam as a pro-
jectile came towards the vessel. The
only point on which eal concur is
that the torpedo struck the vessel
a vital blow amidships, causing her
to list almost immediately to star-
board. In this careening fashion
she plowed forward some distance,
smashing the lifeboats' davits as she
did so, and making the launching of
boats well-nigh impossible until
headway had ceased.
How far the Lusitania struggled
forward after being struck and how
long it was before she disappeared
beneath the waves, likewise, are
points upon which. few passengers
agree, estimates et the time she re-
' mained afloat rangIng from eight to
twenty minutes. At any rate the
list to starboard se elevated the life-
boats on the pert side as soon to
render them useless, and it is said
only two on that side were launched.
After that seveint boats were
launched successfully, but tae

PRISONERS MURDERED.'
Dutch Newspapermen Swear to Atro-
cities on Part of Germans.
LONDON, May 11.—The Press
Bureau has given out a Foreign Of-
fice statement enclosing sworn state-
ments from two Dutch newspaper-
men in. which the charge is made that
British prisonets of war were elicit
by German troops. The documents
comprise statements alleged to have
been mad.e to tate newspaper men by
two German deserters to the effect
that the Bavarian regiments were or-
dered by Prince Rupprecht to take
no British prisoners under pain of
severe punishinent. All had to be
shot, the deserters said.
One case is instanced in which it
is alleged that 40 British prisoners
were burned alive in a hangar, the
Germans concerned receiving a med-
al. Another instanee deals with 24
British prisonees alleged to have
been shot agaiunt a wall at Warviek.
The Germetat 'deserters who are

day, was covered by $5,000,000 war
