Newport Oct. 10.-Eleven American
destroyers are steaming in line five
miles apart, sweeping tire Atlantic off
Nantucket where the five or six
freighters were summarized Sunday in
an effort to locate the crew of the
Kingston or Kingstonian.
When Admiral Cleaves ordered the
destroyers out at 9:2O this morning,
it was admitted that it was practically
useless to search after an all night
gale and cold weather.
Shipping men feel that the wireless
operators may have missread the name
.of the Christian Knudsen for the
Kingstonian- They say if the latter
was really sunk, the destroyers must
have found evidence OF it before this
time.

answer any question relating to his
