ST. PAUL RAISED
IN NORTH RIVER
Vessel Was Turned Over at
Her Pier on the 25th
of April

New York. After nearly Ave
months of difficult salvage work, the
men engaged in raising the Amer
lean liner st. Paul have the vessel on
an even keel. The st. Paul has been
lying in the slip of Pier 81, North
river, since April 25, the day she
suddenly capsized and sank while
being towcd to her berth from a
Brooklyn dock. The task of raising
her has been one of the most diff
cult ever undertaken in this port,
because the salvors had had such
a narrow body of water in which to
do their work. 1t has also been ii
costly contract and it is possible that
nearly $1,000.000 will be paid out
before the ST. Paul is ready for sea
again.
Three members of her crew and
one drydock enploye were lost when
the st. Paul sank, and the injured
numbered six. On board the vessel
at the time was a naval gun crew
of forty-fve officers and men, and
about half of her regular crew. to-
gether with about $50 workmen.
The accident was regarded by the
authorities as a peculiar one in that
the vessel had apparently not been
in any difficulty just before she sank.
1t was believed by shipping men that
the vessels sea cocks had been in
advertently left open on the port side
and that the tanks had filled while
the vessel was coming up the river.
AS she turned into her slip her bal
ance was destroyed, and she went
over suddenly. The military authori-
ties imm ediately took charge of the
vessel, and no official explanation of
the accident has ever been made.
The st. Paul was built at Philadel-
phia in. 1895. She is registered at
10,230 gross tons, is 1855 feet long,
and has a 63-foot beam. Her speed
and the accuracy of her naval gun
crew has saved her several times
from German U-boats.

STATE NEEDS THE
BIG BOND ISSUE
Sproul Says Roads Can Not
Be Built Without Larger
Amounts of Money

Senator William C. Sproul, Repub-

full the Pennsylvania electors will
this fall approve the constitutional
amendment authorizing the issuing
of $50. 900 worth of bonds to be
used in the improvement of state
highways, says the Pittsburgh Gaz-
ette-Times. While he finds some op-
position to the proposition among
members of the Grange he believes
a majority will be returned in favor
of the amendment.
The voting of authority to issue
bonds does not mean that the money
is to be spent during these abnormal
times" said Senator Sproul. After
