SWims Miles to
Land as 2 Drown

New York May f334Tvo men were
drowned in Long Island Sound yes
terday while their companion, oscar
Stoneberg, a shipbuilder of New Ro-
chelle, yielding to them a hastily i'm
prevised raft, leaped from their burn
ing and sinking launch and swan for
three hours, until, almost unconscious
from exhaustion, he reached Huckle-
berry Island. From there he attract
ed the attention of soldiers at Fort
Slocum, who late in the afternoon took
him off in a boat
The men on the launch with Stone
berg who lost their lives were Thorn
as Clancy, a mechanic, and Walter
Muller, foreman of the Diamond Mo-
tor Co., both of II Franklin avenue,
New Rochelle. Neither of them could
swim.
Stoneberg had repaired the launch,
which was owned by Fowler Ward of
22S 18th street Brooklyn. and, with
his two friends, went out in it to test
the engines.
Everything went well until they were
we'll out in the sound between Huckle-
berry Island and Execution Reef light
house. Then, Stonberg said. the en-
CINE backfred, setting fire to the
launch and the clothing of the three.
They jumped overheard to eNtin-
guish the flames and then climbed
back to fight the fire in the launch.
Stoneberg, realizing that it had gain
ed too much Roadway, ripped up the
seats and some of the planking and
made small raft. The engine fell
through and the launch began to settle.
Stoneberg knew that the raft would
not hold the three and determined to
try the swim to Huckleberry Island.
He stripped off his clothing and dived
overheard as the launch sunk.
After swimming several hundred
yards he looked back to see what had
become of his companions. Neither
was on the raft.
The Fort Slocum soldiers carried
Stoneberg to the post hospital, and
after he had received medical atten-
ton they gave him suit of clothes.
