rived here today with % officers
and 2,324 troops from western
states docked at Commonwealth
pier after an eventful voyage Of 1S
days
The first day out from France
the Luckenback ran into a storm
in which the ship rolled and tossed
TO such a degree that 700 hunks
collapsed, injuring many soldier Oc-
cupants. One man had an arm frac-
tured. another his jaw and many
suffered minor cuts and bruises.
Col. w. r Mollison of Faribault.
Mimi. who was in charge of the
troops declared it was miraculous
that none Of the men were killed.
The collapse OF the hunks. how
ever. was only part Of the Lucken-
bachs troubles. In mid-ocean the
starbOard engine was disabled and
the ship was forced to proceed with
one engine. A sail made of spare
pieces of canvas helped consider
ably. but the soldiers declared it
was slow going and monotonous.
