the following version: —
Tire vessel was firing at long
range battle practice. The guns
have only an elevation oi lo",giv
ing them a very short range. It
is said, that to tive normal range
the ship was trimmed to one
side, this gave the vessel a list
j of a number of degrees, giving
1 the guns ihe right elevation, this
movement it is believed, caused a
: short circuit in the electrical fir
