Lusitania Halts In War Game Fire Near New York Harbor
Lusitania bound for Europe halted as two batteries at Fort Wadsworth and Fort Hamilton fired during a war game. Projectiles crossed the bay as the liner slowed, then resumed course after the forts ceased fire. A forged suicide note found on deck was later deemed from no one aboard. Charles M Daniels, swimmer bound for London, drew spectators at the pier.
