stesl hausers.

here today of the Hamburg Amencan
steamer Bohemia interviews were had with
several persons aboard in regard to her at
tempt to tow the disabled Umbria. and ta
the report that the hawser was cut on board
the Bohemia. Every body on board The
steamer emphstieally denied that the hawser
was cut
They say the weather was fairly ealai
when the steel hawser and several other
lines from the Bohemia were made fast on
board the Umbria The Bohemia then
forged ahead with the Cunard liner in tow.
but Ia the evening violent storm set in.
Both vessels pitched heavily and the strain
upon the towirg lines was tremendous. Al
ten al night i, was showing heavily, and Al
that hour the starboard line aud port haw ser
parted.
When the lines parted the Bohemia
stopped and signalled repeatedly to the
Umbra. bat no answer was received.
When daylight broke the sea was closely
scanned for the Umbria but no sign of her
could be seen. The Bohemia therefor pro-
eeeded on her voyage. The crew of the
Bohemia knew that il they succeeded in
taking the L mbria into Halifax they would
receive a share of the salvage money, and
they were enthusiastic at the prospect,
When the lines broke they we're greatly
disappointed.
