British freighter Kut Sang

According with my files, the british cargo ship Kut Sang (4.895 GRT)was torpedoed and sunk on 29th april 1918 about 40 milas ESE from cape Palos when sails in a convoy by german submarine UB 105 (Wilhelm Marschall) with 59 men of her crew.
Were these 59 men all the crew?. And, if the ship was in convoy, why so many people drowned?. Perhaps a boiler explosión?.
Any information about this subject will be welcome.
Thanks in advance for your kind cooperation.
