TRIP

Battling the flames in heavy vol
umes of smoke, Il men were rendered
unconscious and nearly suffocated
early this morning on board the new
navy turbine electric collier Jupiter,
anchored off Mare island.
The flames were discovered at
o'clock this morning. after burning
an hour, in the cordage and stores in
the forward hold of the craft. For
more than three hours the crew of
the gigantic craft, aided by men from
the navy yard. fought the flames.
Captain j. NJ Reeves of the collier
finally ordered the fire tug Leslie of
the navy yard, which was aiding in
the fight, to flood the forward COM
partment. At IL o'clock the tug
started to food the compartment.
The loss isestimated at $4,000.
In fighting the flames without fire
helmets the members of the crew
showed heroism. Eleven were taken
out unconscious from suffocation, but
were quickly revived at the navy yard
hospital. None of the fighters was
injured.
This is the second bit of i'll luck
to o-befall the new collier. On its re-
cent trial trip one of the turbines
broke down and it was found a ma

bine propellers.
