I The Barulos, according to Mrs. I Egan, who is a writer returning from I a six months' trip through southern I Europe, left Piareus for Alexandria I October 2. The ship flew the British I flap: but her crew was Greek. The I passengers, mostly third class, were I chiefly Greeks and Orientals. J When about five hours south of / l } Crete, the ship picked up two boats j containing the crew of the British steamship Sailor Prince, which had R been sunk by a submarine. The Barulos, Mrs. Egan said, cark ried only four life boats, each with y a capacity for 20 persons. Excite ,r ment following the picking up of the crew of the Sailor Prince was at fever ?" heat when suddenly a submarine came e<: to the surface about two miles distant and fired a shot over the Barulos. *? Wild Panic Breaks. * "Instantly a wild panic broke loose," UP said Mrs. Egan. "Led by the crew a,~ and the fire room force, the passen' gers rushed for the boats; women, uns?n' able to get to the boats, threw their ave children into the sea and jumped after n?" them. Frightened sailors cut the s,j^ ropes holding the small boats, and j* when the boats crashed into the water * three of the six were swamped and J emptied of their human loads. the <?j was ^he raj-j when the sub- * ^ marine appeared and I started back en toward the stairs leading below and veen was caught in the rush and literally > Wist J J.| oJ'aiirv "'PsSrr- > ? vi ..... s??iBa>va "i VMWH.
