LATTER, CRIPPLED,
is CROPPING WAY IN
There Are Said to Be IS Sur
vivors Aboard the Nan
tucket, but Details Are as
Yet Very Meagre

Norfolk, Virginia, Jan. 30. Forty mine
lives were lost in the icy waters of the
Atlantic ocean at 2 o'clock this morning
when the liner Monroe of the Old Do
minion line, which was outward bound
for New York, was rammed amidships
practically cut in two and sunk in ten
minutes by the steamer Nantucket OF
the Merchants and Miners line, which
was inbound from Boston. The vessels
struck in fog twenty five miles south
east of Hog island.
The forty-nine who We're lost COM
prised twenty five passengers and twen-
ty-four members of the Monroe. Thirty
one passengers and fifty five members of
the crew of the Monroe were picked up
by the Nantucket, which is limping into
port with crumpled bow and otherwise
damaged.
Captain johnson of the sunken Monroe
and all the officers except Second Officer
Galley were saved. The lost had barely
chance to realize that death was upon
them before they were struggling in the
sea. The passengers were thrown from
their berths in the dead of night by the
force of the collision and barely had
time to struggle to the deck before they
were plunged into the water. Ten min
down.
Hardly Time to Think Before Monroe
Sank.
In the swirling vortex men shouted
and women screamed, while the Nan
tucket backed lowered her boats and
began sweeping the misty sea with
searchlights. The IS. o. s." calls, reach
ing out to the coast stations, started
every available agency of rescue into ae-
ton but not soon enough. The Monroe
went down so quickly there was little
time for launching boats, and it is be-
lieved that the only ones saved were the
eighty-six rescued by the Nantucket.
The rescue by the men of the Nan
tucket was carried on under great diff
Guilty, guided only by the shrieks of the
drowning. The small boats made their
way about in the darkness, and occa-
sionally the faint glow of the search
lights in the fog gave them glimpses of
the struggling figures.
When no more people could be seen
and the shouts of the lifeboat crews
brought no answering shouts from the
sea the task was given up.
The Nantucket, with the survivors
aboard, passed the Virginia capes just
before noon and it was expected to dock
this afternoon. The Nantucket WAS
conveyed by the Hamilton Of the Old
Dominion line, which arrived at the
scene soon after the Monroe sank.
The Monroe was the first steamer lost
by the Old Dominion company during a
half century of operation. The Monroe
was valued at $5O0,000 and her cargo as
much more.

I GIRLS ACCUSATION
When Told Friends Seek Probe,
BIumenthal Says Attack Is
:, "Pack of Lies"

Sacensed at the treatment which Prof
a .Blumenthal, director of the Noca-
ttonal Education Bureau is alleged to
have accorded Miss Frieda Bauer. a
sixteen-year-old girl, in an examina-
ton to determine whether or not she
was qualified to pursue the course OF
studies which she was taking at East
CT High School last winter a committee
from the United German Societies is
preparing to file with the school board
Of the District a petition asking an
investigation Of the case and protest
ing against further examination of
public school pupils by Prof. Blurnen-
thai
Miss Bauer, who was a second year
pupil, had been training herself with a
view to becoming a teacher. With this
ambition shattered, Franz Rom. chair
mar Of the committee, said she returned
TO her home utterly discouraged by Prof
Blumenthal, and the harsh manner in
which he is alleged TO have dealt with
her.
This is a pack of falsehoods,' Prof
Blumenthal exclaimed, when advised
wha, the German societies purpcsed to
do. 81 examined Miss Bauer just as
do all school children-in the presence
Of a teacher. There were two teachers
present in this instance, and / asked nc
improper questions. l did not advise
Miss Bauer to marry now, but simply re-
ferred to her as the type Of wsman that
should marry. My question concerning
money was asked with a view 20 determ-
lining wfVther her parents had the means
70 give her higher education, course
Which I advised against
pet them go on; they will hang them
selves, and if they desire 1 will furnish
them with q silk cord to do so"
In the course of his questioning.
Prof. Blumenthla Mr.. Rom declares.
asked Miss Bauer il she had money.
and when the girl replied in the meg.
ative, advised her to get married
He announced, Mr.. Hom added, that
the young woman was better fitted
for domestic work than other voca-
tiops, and on the strength of this
recommendation she was transferred
to, the Mckinley Manual Training
School in order that she might pursue
such courses
The committee. which consists of
Franz Rom, Martin Wiegand, and
Karl Hammel WAS selected at meet
ing held at Bessler's Hall last night.
Mr.. Rom said today that the petition
would be filed this afternoon or to-
morrow.
DR.. Small. principal of Eastern High
School. declined to make any statement
concerning Miss Bauer's case. but
Ernest L. Thurston. Superintendent OF
Schools. said that Mr.. Rom had COM
planned to him. and he had looked into
the case.
Henry P. Blair. president Of the

had been made to him.
