TEN MEN GO TO DEATH IN EFFORT
 TOs SAVE CREWO GROUNDED CRAFT

IRenublican A. Q. Leased Wirel
 OCEAN CITY, Md. March B. Ten men from the coast cutter Yamacraw went to their death last night in a raging storm off this place in a futile effort to save the crew of the oil steamer Louisiana, aground on a sand bar two miles out. Three life saving crews from Ocean City, North Beach and Isle of White stations had been to the Louisiana early to take off the crew, but the captain said the ves sel was in no immediate danger. Captain RideeIy, of the Yamacraw, in answer to rockets, ordered. his large boat launched and eight men under a quartern1aster were sent out in sea running twenty feet hiqh. The Iifebcat was swamped and the nine men pitched into the sea. Sailors on the Louisiana threw fife belts, but the men were lost in the darkness and only their cries could be heard.
 The captain of the Louisiana flashed wireless to Captain Ridgely that his men were drown ing and the latter launched seo- ond boat with four men. In this boat was the wireless operator, thus preventing the cutter from getting any more news from the sta7 r1er.
 This boat had a terrible fiaht with the waves and one of the seamen, a negro, was thrown over board. Fearful that if he were pulled in the boat would overturn, his comrades lashed him to the side and made their way to the shore.

HOBOKEN. N. J.. March With the arrest here today of Fritz kolh, q German, the authorities expressed the belief that they had frustrated a well developed plot to aid Germany by blowing up munition plants in this country engaged in turning out con- tracts for the entente allies. The po- lice said they found in Kolbs room two bombs which. according to rumors that had reached them. were to be sent to President Wilson.
 After a preliminary investigation, however. they announced themselves as convinced that the plans of the al- leged plotters had to do entirely with destroying war supplies. and that no attack on the presidents life was con templated The police also said they had come into possession of informa- tion which might help them in solving the Black Tom. x.
