Her maid was killed In their cabin by a gunshot. "I was in the dining room of the first-class passengers," Dr. Orell is quoted as saying, "chatting with some of the voyagers, when we heard the report of-a cannon. There was great excitement on deck and men were running here and there. I asked the ship's doctor what-waa happening and . he. replied- that, he didn't know. Then I went on deck myself. MaU Killed In Cabin. "I saw through a slight fog a sub marine about a hundred yards distant. It was squlpped with two cannon, for ward and aft. which were being fired rapidly. I went down to my cabin to get my papers and there found my maid, who pleaded with me to save her. A cannon shot intempted our conversation. A shell entered the vessel through the porthole and killed my maid. I went up to the deck with a life belt. ,' "Boats were being lowered, all com pletely, filled.
