WRECK WAS BLOWN UP.
The Old Cruiser Yankee Was Menace
to Transportation.

New Bedford, Mass, Sept. 2l.-The
cruiser Yankee. which was wrecked on
Hen and Chickens reef in Buzzards bay
II years ago and which sank and was
refoated only to go down again after
drifting few miles, has been finally
lost to the navy. Wreckers, who have
been trying for several years to re-
move the hulk Of the sunken cruiser
as a menace to navigation have blown
it up, and timbers of the old Yankee
are now scattered on the floor of the
bay.
The Yankee, which was formerly the
coastwise passenger steamer Ell Sud,
was in transport service during the
Spanish American war and was contin-
ued on the naval rolls afterward as a
cruiser. She went aground on Hen and
Chickens reef during thick fog on the
night of Sept %, 1918, and slipped of
into deep water.
The nayy's attempt to float her,
made under the direction of Naval
Constructor Washington l.. Caps,
failed, and private bids were called for.
As result, the first notable use of
compressed air for marine salvage in
this country was made by John Ar
buckle OF New York, sugar refner.
He bought Peary's Arctic ship Roose-
welt and made her the headquarters of
his operations. After three months
work with the compressed air method
the Yankee was raised and started in
tow for this port.
She ran into storm during the
night. heavy seas thumped her weak.

broke The Yankee went down again
off Dumping light and, although the
Arbuckle wreckers renewed their eff
forts, and other salvage outfits did
their best to bring her to the top, she
stayed there 10 years before she was
blown TO pieces.

resources are still so great that need not fear
of exhausting them soon, for some have only
been tapped, and others are far from being
worked to their capacity.
Our population, judged as whole, is the most
aggressive and resourceful of the world. No OBJ
stacle has been great enough to deter the
American people from undertaking its removal
in the onward march toward the attainment of q
purpose.
Before us lie great things that are still to be
accomplished. We need millions Of homes to

business, industrial and commercial spheres
churches, theatres and a vast number of other
structures await construction. The erection of
many a public building and the improvement of
thousands of miles of streets and roads, which
have been postponed for five years, call for
action.
This is only an insignificant part of the work
that challenges our attention and will give
abundant opportunity for work and for business
expansion.
So long as the American spirit retains its old
verility and adaptabity it will not quail before
tasks that are to be performed but address itself
to their attainment with an uncomfortable deter
