Harbor Steam Launch
Destroyed by Explosion

London. May %. S.16 A. M.-No
trace has been found of a harbor
steam launch which was moored
alongside the Princess Irene or its
crew of five men since the explosion
which destroyed the big steamer and
it is assumed five more names must be
added to the list of dead.
One possible survivor of the explo.
sion is in a hospital suffering from
shock. He was picked up in the water
some time after the explosion, but it
has not been learned whether he was
a member of the Princess Irene's crew
or was blown out of some small boat
near by. Only one body has been re-
covered. Two barges which were
alongside the Irene were demolished.
