PILOT RULE CAUSES DEATH OF
... , MAN ON LINER

New York, Sept. 22.-The life of
Peter Wolf, third engineer of liner
Berlin, was sacrificed to the red tape
of the Pilots Association, which pro-
vides that the pilot who takes ship
out of harbor cannot take it back.
Just as the Berlin was discharging
her pilot off Ambrose Light an explo-
sion in the boiler room scalded Wolf
and Fourth Engineer Neinschmidt
The pilot refused to take the ship
back and it was necessary to wait an
hour to get another pilot. When the
men we're finally landed at Quaran-
tine Island and taken to the hospital,
Wolf was beyond hope and soon died.
Keinschmidt probably will not re-
cover. Doctors said if the Berlin
could have returned to Quarantine
Island without delay both lives might
have been saved. .s
