CITY of Chester Sinks a Dredge

The passengers aboard the Wilson
Line steamer City of Chester had an
exciting time Monday afternoon when
the boat collided with a suction dredge
near the Philadelphia Navy yard.
Barbara Talley, Is years old, of
Wilmington, missed her footing and
fell overheard while the passengers
were being transferred to a lighter,
but was rescued by a workman.
The dredge was struck amldshlp by
the City of Chester, the steel prov of
the steamer crashing thru the dredge
which sank in a few minutes.
An accident to the steering gear of
the City of Chester, which prevented
it from functioning properly, was Civ
en- as the cause of the accident.
Fear quickly spread that the boat
had been badly damaged and was in
imminent danger of sinking. Passen-
gers on the upper deck rushed down
the companion ways to the main deck
and stood ready to leap into the water
at the slightest sign of a list.
Commander A. H. Allen, of the navy
medical corps, saw the accident from
the navy yard, and sent a lighter to
the City of Chester's side, on which
the ships passengers were taken to
the yard and later uptown on motor
trucks.
A navy tug pulled the City of Ches-
ter loose from the half-submerged
wreckage of the dredge and the
steamer proceeded up stream under its
own power. One hour later it sailed
for Penns Grove and Wilmington with
another load Of passengers.
