}} | SS Hsin Yu was a Chinese Army transport ship that served during World War I. The 1,629 ton ship had been built in 1889. On 22 April 1916, the transport, with over a thousand enlisted men and officers on board, was in a thick fog while on its way to Foo Chow. South of the Chusan Islands, the cruiser {{ship|Chinese cruiser|Hai Yung||2}} accidentally collided with Hsin Yu. A foreign engineer, nine sailors, and 20 soldiers were the only survivors. The ship sank with the loss of more than 1,000 lives.[1] The date of the disaster has frequently (and mistakenly) been listed as 29 August 1916 although it occurred four months earlier.[2]References1. ^{{cite news |title=Chinese Ship Sunk; 1,000 Die |newspaper=The Sun-Herald |location=Lime Springs, Ia. |date=27 April 1916 |page=6}}
