TANKER At ANCHOR IS
RAMMED BY SCHOONER
Eugene V. Thayer Comes Under
Own Power to Harlan
Yards for Repairs.

A five-masted schooner, Jennie Flood
Krcger. rammed the oil tanker Eugene
V. Thayer in the starboard stern near
the engine room while the tanker was
lying at anchor during n heavy fog.
early yesterday morning, so miles south
east of Cape Henlopen.
A barge loaded with coal. which was
being towed by the Thayer, was cut
adrift by the collision and has not yet
been located. A hole over six feet in
diameter was made in the Thayer's 8 stern
lust a few inches above the water line.
Much of the schooners rigging and
headgcar was torn down by the impact
and fell on the decks of the Thayer.
After the fog had lifted the tanker
was brought under her own power slow
ly to the mouth of the Christiana river,
from where she was towed into the Har
Ian yard. yesterday afternoon The Jen-
ME +. Kreger proceeded to Philadel-
phia.
The Thaycr. which plies between
Marcus Hook and Galveston. Texas, was
bound down the river when she was
envcloped i'm a hoavy fog and unable to
proceed with safety, dropped anchor. The
fog whistle. il is said was blown con
tinualy. shortly before $50 o'clock the
masts of tho Jennie r. krcgcr loomcd
out of the fog on the starboard side OF
the tanker The distance between the
two ships was too short To avert col
Iision though the helmsman of the
schooner made a desperate attempt 10
avoid the tanker. one Of the tanker
engines was reported to have been dam
aged by the collision.
The officers and crew of the vessel
left for New York after she was
anchored in the Harlan yards. The
schooner was bound for Boston coming
from Newport News.
The Thaycr is one Of the four oil
tankers built for the Sinclair Navigation
Company. She is a single screw steamer
Of l0.600 tons displacement and was
built at the Harlan yards here. She
was turned over to hcr owners on De
cernber IL. 1920. The Thaycr was the
first boat 70 be- completed at the Harlan
yard for private owners after the war.
she has made four trips between
Marcus Hook and Texas and was start
ing on her NTH voyage when the a.
cidcnt occurred.
