Tramp Steamer Sinks. Survivors Relate Battle at Sea
Twenty one survivors of the British steamer Coronda say it was torpedoed with nine drowned after lifeboat capsize. They reached a rescue steamer nine hours after the sinking and witnessed a dramatic clash between a tramp steamer and a submarine, which likely destroyed the submarine. The Coronda went down without warning about 150 miles off the Irish coast on March 23.
