The torpedo struck the after-part of the ship near the engingroom, killing some of til e engineers, aud plunging the ship into darkness. Immediately above the engineroom was a wardroom with over 100 mtieuts, most of whom were killed outright by tbs explosion, while the others were trapped aud drowned. Tills part of tha ship quicklv sattlad down in' the water. The soldiets and nurses testify to the heroic efforts of he ship’s officers and crews in the most difficult work of rescue and tiie transferring of the casualties to tha escorting destroyers in a rough sea. The moral of tne wounded, lying on the deck waiting to bo transferred to the destroyers, has been described as “100 line for words. ’’ One b: at containing 6 women and wounded soldiers was upset,. Subsequently Diree of the women ami most of the wounded were picked up. The Warilda finally settled clown by the stern. Then she upended, aud Hie sea reaching her boilers she blew up in a terrific column of fire and water.
