(United Press Association.—Copyright.) (Received 14th March, 8 a.m.) TOKIO, 11th March. Searching torpedo boats have abandoned hope of saving tho training ship Kirishima, a 900-ton sailor from the Kagoshima hiarino school, with seventytwo, including -forty students, aboard. The vessel wirelessed in S.O.S. on the night of 9th March saying that she was sinking. The Empress of Canada, coming to Yokohama, changed her course and fruitlessly searched for the Kirishima. It is believed that the vessel sank with all hands during a heavy storm.
