Boston, May 6.--Further details re-
garding the burning steamer sighted
300 miles south of Cape Race by the
steamer Seydlitz, Bremen for New
York, were anxously awaited In ship
ping circles.
The meager wireless dispatches
sent by the Seydlitz and by the Sable
Island radio station indicated that It
had been impossible to learn the name
of the vessel, but that another steam
er apparently had heard her call for
help Sunday night. AS the Seydlitz
could see no sign of life on board, II
was hoped that the crew had been
taken off by some other vessel.
The difficulty of obtaining news by
wireless concerning the burning ship
was increased by the fact that the
radio station at Cape Race, which was
disabled in an early spring blizzard
al present has a very limited range.
