MANY IMPERILLED
 AS LAUNCH SINKS
Crowd Bound For Sea Breeze Island is Rescued Through
 Quick Work of Grew

Prompt action by Captain l.. B. Hathaway and members of the crew of the launch Francesca averted many possible fatalities when the launch, swamped with passengers, was over turned at the Sea Breeze dock in Stratford avenue, yesterday afternoon Capt. Hatheway's craft is one of several which transport passengers from various points of the city to the island. He plies between the, Strat- ford avenue pier, having arranged with the company for the use of the land ing place, and the old ferry landing in Sea Breeze Island
 Yesterday afternoon about o'clock as the launch drew near the landing, patrons began piling in before the gang plank had been lowered. The rush of people into the boat, and the piling of many passengers on one side, resulted in the tilting of the craft so far as to ship a large quantity of wa ter and throw a number of the 50 or more people aboard her into the har- Dor.
 The captain and crew succeeded in snatchings every passenger from the water None suffered so badly ag to need medical attention at the pier, but all spectators marvelled that no more serious results followed the upsetting of the launch. The vessel is about 40 feet long and 10 feet beam.
