New York, April 18. Several nnvnt
si'nm.cn wcro drowned yesterday when
the propeller of the transport Snionla
sliced oft" tho stem of the. nnvnt lug
Freehold while the smaller vessel was
ilneklue the troonshln nt n Cunnrd pier.
O'hn number of dead Is not known, for
wlillo the tug carried a crew of twenty
three nnd only fourteen were rescued,
shore leave had been granted a number
of the bailors.
The Freehold was less thnn three
minutes in sinking. According to wlt
ncsscsj It was shortly before 4 :30 when
tho Jug, pulllr.c the vessel's stern
around, received its death blow. Wit
nesses said the conimnndcr of the
Haxonia evidently intended to aid the
tug. Those on the dock hardly had
time to rim to the pierhead before the
tug's stack disappeared.
