Towing S-5 Ashore
Proves Ordeal
Continued from rate One
preliminaries nre being dlscifoscd of the
investigation to determine the cause of
the sinking. Seeretnry of the Navy
Daniels la expected to convene h court
of Inquiry, nt which officers ntid men
will testify, ns soon ns they hnvo re
covered. Navnl officers nt WnthliiRton cnld It
( Tvns likely the court would be held nt
tho Philadelphia nnvy jnrd, and alt the
officers nnd men of the S-" summoned
before It to rIvc testimony.
Failure of nn nlr Intake valve of
largo diameter to close automatically
when (ho S-5 attempted n "crash dive"
sent tho submarine to the bottom.
The cntihp of the dNnter was re
vealed when Captain Thomas Hart,
commander of the destrojer Denver,
one of the first of the flotilla of gov
ernment rescue ships to arrive, dis
patched in official report to the navv
authorities at Washington
The official report shows that the
disaster came nt 2 o'clock Vednednv
afternoon, fifty. fivo miles off the Pcl
nware capes, Tho dive was mnde in
ordinary battle practice. Lieutenant
Commander Charles M. Cooke, Jr.,
master of the S-f, gnve the slgnnl for
the dive, tho men took their battle sta
tions and the water Intake vales were
opened. At the sime time the "fins"
of tho submarine were manipulated to
shoot her sharply downward.
Tanks Failed to Work
Had nil gone well the great tanks
would hrne filled swiftly and the sub
marine would hnvo disappeared under
tho surface on only slightly less than
an even keel. Tho S-.r hod been tmv
cllng awash when the order to sub
merge was given. Fresh air for the
crew was pouring In from air Intake
valves in tho superstructure. These
are arranged to close nutomntlcnllf whon
the water intnke valves arc opened.
For soiro reason, not et explained,
and possibly newr to be known, one ot
these large valves foiled to close nt tho
moment when the submarine, her tanks
almost full with the wnter taken on to
overcome her buoyancy, dipped beneath
the surface.
To the horror of the crew water
gushed In with a roar through tiie open
valve. The men were Imprisoned in
their craft, the conning tower hatch
screwed down nud doubly sealed by the
vrclght of water overhead, with water
rushing in so fust that it rose in a
few moments over tho gratings ou the
floor of tho sub.
Nay Discipline Told
Then discipline told. Without it the
men on tho S-5 never would have
been heard of again, or at best their
craft would have been their coffin
when It was found. lu the face of the
rushing water, fighting for life when
eeconds counted, thoy manipulated the
auxiliary wheel controlling the valve,
and managed to get it closed against the
terrific pressure of the water.
For the moment thev were safe,
though every man knew that unless tho
water could be expelled speedily nnd the
submarine brought to the surface their
plight wus no better than before, worse,
if anything, for. instead of merciful,
swift drowning they would be choked by
the fumes of chlorine or poisoned by the
stifling dead air.
The next move attempted was to free
the submarine of water. Thp S-5, like
other submcrsibles, was equipped with
huge compressed nir tanks, filled with
air under pressure when the boat wns
running on the surface, to be used to
Blow the water out of the ballast tanks.
Danger from Chlorine Furno
Theiir wns turned 'on. and speedily
the water wns blown out of the after
ballast compartments, the expanding air
from the tanks taking its place. At the
same time the pumps were set going to
expel the water that had come into the
submarine from the open nlr valve. As
tho water from the nfter tanks wns
blown out, the submarine began to lift
by the stern.
Old Spirit of Navy
Is Alive, Says Daniels
Pride in the navy of today ns com
pared to tho glories achieved by it
in the past is the dominant note In a
statement on the wreck of the S-5
from Secretary of the Nnvy Daniels,
lie said:
"I wns very worried, but now I
am very happy. It just goes to show
that the men of tho nnvy todny nro

Farragut nnd Admiral Dewey."

ship when below tho surface.
Chlorine gas Is the ever present fear
and menace of the men who snll In sub
marines So thnt its first tnint In the
nlr mny be detected, many "subs" carry
cnnnrlcs, which nre peculiarly suscep
tible to it. nnd bv their fiutterlne nnd
chirping give notice thnt n lurking death
Is creeping through tho ship.
Water Hit Acid, Forming Chlorlno
Chlorine gas Is formed when sea
water comes in contact with the sul
phuric ncid which Is used in the bat
teries. The water washed in through
the open nlr vnlve wns soon nt work In
the great battery boxes, eating In nnd
mingling with the ncid, the deadly
fumes pouring out nud slowly finding
their wny up to where the men had
sought refuge.
Until tho chlorine fumes became
acute, the men had not ghen up hope
of getting tho submarine out of its
perilous position. They hnd clambered
down into the control room, nnd were
doing whnt they could to start tho ma
chinery working again. As the deadly
gas mounted, however, their burning
ejes and choking throats gave notice
that It was death to stay, and they were
slowly driven aft, climbing higher and
higher, sealing each of the compart
ments Into which a submarine is di
vided ns thev were driven by tho fumes.
At last they were nil huddled, the
thirty-seven of them, in two smnll ma
chinery compartments In the stern. It
was sticking almost straight up, jut
ting clenr of the wnter. The nlr wns
foul with the accumulations of gas thnt
had followed the men through, or ner-
haps seeped through the bulkhead doors.
It was vitiated with tho breathing and
rcbrcathing of many men in a cramped
space.
Men Strip to Waist
Stripped to the wnlst to withstand
the hent In the two small compart
ments where they hnd wedged them
sehes, panting ns they breathed the
poisonous air, tho men yet fought for
their lives.
Commander Cooke conceived the idea
of drilling a hole through the wall of
the submarine, so that they might get
fresh air. They could reach only a
small hand drill, but with this they set
to work lhey uiu not Know to a cer
tainty that the stern was out of water,
but the hollow sound given back when
they pounded on It led them to hope
that this was to. If they were wrong,
the faced onto more the menace of
spurting water.
They were weak and so sc.-wt of

a time could the most powerful of them
work the little hand drill. Finnlly,
however the hit a hole through the
three-qi'arter inih steel plate of the

life-giving fresh nir, never so welcome,

They clambered up to the projecting
stern of the submarine. Orace, with
Williams to "spell" him, began oper

while thev waited for help the crew of
the Alanthus took turns pumping fresh

OVERTON RADIO MAN
TELLS ABOUT RESCUE
Bu a Staff Correspondent
Washington, Sept. 4. In the blind
ing glare of a dozen powerful search
light, thirty-seven men imprisoned for
forty-one hours in what to them had
seemed a certain tomb, were hoisted out
of the rocking wreck of the S-5 through
a holo cut in the submarine stern, to
breathe once more the air of freedom.
Such is the storv of the rescue off
Cape Henlopen as told by O. W. Row
man, of the Philadelphia Navy Yard,
who was nboard the destroyer Overton
when it dashed to the aid of the S-5,
breaking nil known speed records for
naval vessels, and who assisted In the
work of rescue upon arrival.
How man described the night's ex
periences nt his home here, where he
is spending n short leave granted nfter
the rescue.
"It was like the darkened pit of n
theatre, with only a spotlight on the
stnge," he said.
''When the Overton nrrlved with
acetylene torches nnd drilling appara
tus, the sub's stern wns nbout fifteen
feet out of water. The sub is n 1200
footer and the depth where it lay was
185. The Alanthus had a cable about
her nnd had managed to get a hole
through the hull.
Wild Yell at Rescue
"When one of tho rescuers dronncd
down Inside tho disabled mass of steel
nnd dragged the first of the crew to the
uiacK circle a rim there was a wild
yell.
"For' tho wholo thlrty.scven men
were alive weak, but still going. Their
incea were uiancneu, tneir eyes suniccn
nnd their hands cramped nnd knotted
bv the dend nir. Thev hnd tried every
thing. They had tapped their torpedoes
for the nlr that Keeps them nlloat. An
other hour and their rescuers would
huvo found them dend. The batteries
were leaking and the bilge was mixing
with the acid, forming chlorine gas.
"They'll nil como through. They re
sponded to the hot coffee nnd toast.
The air seems pretty good to them and
they're all feeling better, but .they'll
never forget."
Powman, of the radio section, Phila
delphia Navy Yard, was one of the
volunteers to board the Overton for
tho special rescue trip. Tho destroyer
left League Island twenty-five minutes
after it received word of the 8-5's
plight Thursday night. Most of the
crew were nshore, nnd volunteers wero
called from the reserves in tho yard.
Down the bay the Overton steamed at
thirty-five knota, finally reaching the
open sea. With battened hatches nnd
forced drnft tho destroier tore through
the night, lcnvlng a trail of sparks from
her scorched stacks.
"All In" From Strain
At 12:30, the Gocthnls was sighted,
nnd but a few minutes later the men
from tho Overton were aiding in the
rescue.
Ilowman, who sacrifled nn earlier
leave to Join tho rcscuo party, was
weary from the harrowing experience
ho had witnessed and tho lobg hours
of tenseness during the Overton's trip
to the scene of tho nlmost-tragedy. He
snt munching a sandwich in a rcstnu
rnnt hero Inst night, nfter his trip from
Philadelphia. He was filled with the
talc of the drama he had Been, Lut he
wns physlcnlly "all in" from the
stiain.
"I like excitement, all right," he
said, "but I never want to see men
that close to death again."
(ALLIN A DATS WORK,9
SAYS CHIEF ENGINEER
New York, Sept. 4. "All in
a dav's work" wns tho manner in which
W. O. Grnce. the mnn who succeeded
In rescuing the crew of tho sunken S-5,
described Ills efforts.
Grace is chief engineer of the trans
port General Goethals. Ho worked for
five hours, virtually without rest, bor
ing holes through tie iron plates of the
submarine to get fresh air to the 'm"
prisoned seamen.
Then, too weak to swing the heavy
sledge continuously, he directed the ef
forts of other men in knocking a hole
through the circle mnde by the holes,
further weakened by chiseling, nnd the
rescue of the seamen through the hole.
The fact that ho had clung pre
cariously to the steep Iron side of the
S-5 and stuck to his tnsk despite the
onrush of foul nlr nnd hent through the
first holes mnde until his tnsk was
done meant nothing to him.
"All in a day's, work," he repeated
laconically. "We did only what others
would hnvo done. Anyhow, the credit
goes to the lookout of the stenmer
Alanthus. He first sighted the sub
marine and was the direct cnuse of the
nrrlval of the General Goethals."
The General Goethals arrived and
docked at Hoboken during the night.
Grnce and It. A. MacWllllams, his as
sistant, who stuck to the S-5 along
with Grace during the long grind nnd
relieved him for short spells, were given
all credit by the crew.
Like Grace. MacWilllams is modest.
Put he gives Grace full credit for the
rescue
not hnvo been made except far the
strength nnd determination of his chief,
strength and determination that. made
the small hand ratchet drill fairly cat
its way through tho iron plates.
Captain 1. O, Swinson, master of the
Gcuernl Goethals, tho man who dis
patched MncWlllinms nnd Grace to the
scene while ho superintended tho work
of fastening chains to the submarine's
stem sticking out of the water, gives
full credit to the two.
Here is Chief Engineer Grncc's story
ns he told it:
"It was shortly after 5 o'clock Wed
nesday when I was called to deck by
tho cnptnln, who pointed out a protru
sion from the wnter a short distance
from the stenmer Alanthui, which Cap
tain B. O, Swinson told me he hnd
sighted but a few minutes' before, fljlng
her distress slffnnls. We lowered n boat,
nnd, with my affsistnnt, It. A. MacWll
llams, wo Jumped nboard and were
rowed by our men to the protrusion.
"Wo found it wbb the stern of a sub
marine protruding nbout thirty feet
above tho water.
"The boys made our boat fast, nnd
I didn't waste a tnlnuto before begin
ning to punch airholes with the little
hand ratchet I had brought along.
"It seemed hours before wo wore able
to cut tho first hole through tho heavy
steel hull of tho submarine, and it was
cquauy as long before we made the next
puncture. After that, I just worked
methodically, but was cheered to sliced-
ler work, if thnt was possible, by the
ennuis irom tno Alanthus thnt the men

dow. nnu resting on the ocean bed.
would settle.
"I remember somo one tnlklng about
the men being nearly out of air, nnd
the nching muscles of my arms and
hnnds seemed to hurt less ns I tackled
the job again. MacWllllams, who H
one of the best men In the Bcrvlce, in
sisted on relieving me nnd we took turn
nt working the inadequate little ratchet.
"Why, if it had been nn ncctjlene
torch we could have cut the hole lu u
few minutes; instead hours elapsed be
fore wo had punched fifty-six holes In
n circle large enough for a man's body
to pnss through."
"They sent us a sledge hummer from
the Alanthus, and wo battered through
the weakened hull, and nt 1.25 o'clock
yesterday morning, according to the
ship's time, we had the first man out.
"I sat down in our boat nnd watched
the men drag themselves out of that
sunken hole. Thcir eyes were blood
shot nnd their lips swollen, but they
were a manly bunch, nnd passed a
cheery word ns they came out. And
there wns mnny a word of thnnks to
the fate which had sent the Goethals
to them.
"You seo. it wns the sighting of the
Alanthus with her distress signnls that
turned tho trick, not the mere work ot
punching tho'holos. Give the watch
credit, for ho deserves it.
"We sent back to our ship and hung
around nwhlle nnd, seeing that the
United States destroyers which came
from Philadelphia wero taking care of
the men, we left for port.
