PLYMOUTH LOSS
HIT EUROPEAN
UNDERWRITERS

The awards OF salvage for saving the
passenger steamer City OF Lowell at the
fire which destroyed the Plymouth at
Newport are being considered by insur-
ance officials.
Tugs Solicitor. Captain John Osill. and
tug Charles w. Morse of New York saved
the Lowell.
The awards TO them will probably be
large and will form the basis OF a court
trial TO decide upon the salvage TO be
paid.
The huh OF the Plymouth will be towcd
TO New York tomorrow TO be dry docked
and inspected. 1t Is thought she can be
rebuilt.
The fire by which the Plymouth was
damaged caused the largest loss in the
country during the month OF March; but
fortunately for the American underwrit-
ers the loss OF s1.045OO0 falls almost
wholly upon European marine insurance
companies.
