Steamer Washington Irving, Bound For Albany In
Dense Fog, Rammed .Near N. Y. Pier-Captain’s
Bravery Praised-Only Superstructure Above Wa-
ter—Fight For Life Preservers.

NEW YORK, June 1.—-(AP). With 606 passengers aboard
": the washington Irving, of the Hudson River my lines Albany-
N'ew York fleet, was rammed by a tanker o! Hobcken, N. J.,
today and sank. All passengers were reported rescued before

 

 

the boat sank.
Oolliding Vessel Not Known.

The Washington Irving. said to be
the largest passenger carrying river
boat in the world, a side-wheeler of
4.000 tone, had left its pier at the
foot of Desbrosses street but a few
“minutes when it was struck.

The identity of the colliding ves-
sel did not appear in early reports
received by the officers of the Hud-
e0n River Line here.

Water Rushes Into IIolii.

Water came into the damaged
[hold so fast that shortly after the
last passenger had been taken off.
the boat had sunk to such a depth

”that only the super-structure show-

ied above the surface.

When the river liner left her pier
for her daily run to Albany there
was a dense fog. As she was push-
ing into the haze, a tanker or large
tug (early reports differed on this
point) crashed full into her and the
Washington Irving immediately
showed signs of floundering.

Settles Near Jersey Shore.
Nearby crafts of all descriptions

gmwsi‘sned to her assistance and pas-

sengers were transferred and taken
ashore. An effort was made to run
the damaged craft to the Jersey
shore. but about 100 feet from land
the hold was so filled- with water

sengers. There was [a rush for life

prevented from. leaping overboard

, by the coolness of the captain. Mrs.

Sargent said.
Rescue Squads Formed

ized his crew into rescue squads dc-

from.

A number of river tugs immedi~
ately came to the sinking ship. The
captain then directed that the
.Washington Irving life boats be
swung out and the passengers were
lowered into the river. picked up by
tugs and landed at various points
along the river front on the New
York shore.

Raphael Casaido, aged 45. of

' klyn, was brought ashore in a
Moot collapse. It was explained
v. ‘t he had been recuperating from

:1 electric ehoclé and suffered a re-
lapse because of the excitement.
Fire Accident On Line

E. E. Olcott. president of the
Hudson River Day "Line. said in a
statement this was the first accident
in the history of the line. He is
confident the Washington Irving
which cost $750,000 will not be e. to~
tel loss. The boat will be raised and
dry docked.

Although no serious injuries were
reported many women were said to
have tainted after the accident.
1>uaengers were unanimous in
jraielng the captain and crew for
their coolnese and heroism 'during
the rescue work. Passengers re-
ported that members of the crew
formed a human chain over which
to lower women and children to life
units from the sinking ship.

" also Fight for we Bells
although early reports did not
include a. single Criticism of the
crew. there were complaints of men
meager! who fought in panic for
life preset-vets. .

morning along the East Norwalk

man into the net but failed since the

from the party led by Mrs. Maybew
which had just alighted from the
Roton Point car. and walked ahead.
They discovered that they were be-
ing followed and ran in terror to the
Mayhew home where Mr. Mayhew
was awakened and Officer Louie
Brehm summoned. The crowd that
collected on the street spread out
through the district in search of tho
skulkcr.

The man brought in finally. after
a search that excited the whole
neighborhood. was evidently the
worse for liquor and insisted that he
knew nothing about the incident.
The police were forced to drop the
charge when the girls clinched his
statements by saying that the mist
through which they were walking
made it impossible to make out the
features of the man who had fol-
lowed them.

SOUTH NORWALK. CONN. TUESDAY, JUNE 1, 1926.

By Congressman Schuyler

 

Norwalk people turned out in

' large numbers to honor its heroes yesterday. It was necessary
to out the parade short and hold the services in the armory in-

 

 

Raln Holds Up Parade.

At 9:30 o'clock, the starting time
for the parade, the rain was comins
down in torrents and it looked as if
the 600 members of various organ-
izatlons who had'nthereo at tho
South Norwalk railroad station to act
as an escort to the silver haired Vet-
erans of the Civil War, would be up.
able to do so. Grand Marshal Le
Roy D. Downs issued orders that the
parade would wait until 10 o'clock to
see if it would not clear and that
if the rain did not let up by that
time the parade would be dismissed
and the exercises would be held at
the Armory.

At 9:56. as if a kind Providence
watched over the grand old veterans
of the War of Rebellion the skies
cleared, the rain slackene’d and it
was decided to start the parade.

The G. A. R. veterans whose ranks
have thinned considerably since last
Memorial Day passed along the
streets of the second district between
the lines of people who braved the
storm to pay tribute to these heroes.
The wearers of the Blue rode in au-
tomobiles at the end of the first divi-
sipn, some of them probably going
on parade for their last time.

The Douglas Fowler post had a.
large turnout. about a dozen mem-
bers. only four members of the
Buckingham post, were able to go
on parade. At one time this post be
over 800 active members. '

ed the William McKinley Camp.
United Spanish War Veterans. Frank
C. Godfrey Post. No. 12. American
Legion. Mulvoya'f'arlov Post Veter-
ans of Foreign Wars. The members
of the McKinley Camp Auxiliary
attired in white dresses. rode in an.
tonlobiles and the Mulvoy-Tarlov
Post Auxiliary in natty uniforms
were in a decorated truck and pre-
sented a very attractive appearance.

The third division was composed
of the Boy Scouts headed by Scout
Commissioner Charles Dimond. This
organization turned out in large
numbers and was headed by its
splendid bugle and drum corps.

The American band furnished
music for the first division and the
Norwalk Fife and Drum cor‘ps for
the second. Chief of Police William
R. Pennington marched at the head
of the parade with Grand Marshal
Downs. .

After leaving the railroad station
the parade proceeded to the armory
where the services were held with
Congressman. Schuyler Merritt of
Stamford as the speaker.

General Frost Chairman

General Russell Frost presided as
chairman. The program opened with
the singing of America. led by Mrs.
Lucy Marks Morrison, director of

fered by Rev. Ernest l". MacGregor.

al church. Mrs. Morrison led in the

Along with the shift of “1:2 calen-

raise in the price of haircuts locally
from 50 to ‘50 cents. This increase
goes into effect today in all union

P-arlers beginning today are being
paid $30 a week and one-half the
earnings over $45 a month made by
the men for the shop. Boss barbers as-
sert they are boosting the price of

to make both ends meet. While the
lowly sham remains the same price
as before namely a quarter, from
today on it will cost. is cents in-
