PASSENGERS BEING
 SLOWLY TAKEN ID SAFETY FROM SHIP
No Lives Lost as Steamer Be- comes Disabled In Long Saulte Rapids In St.
 Lawrence
By Associated Press

ogdensburg. N. Y, July IA small boat connected with land by a heavy cable hauled BPS tourist passengers through raging waters of the St. Lawrence to safety today from the steamer Rapids King of the Canada Steamship Line, which went on tho rocks Saturday in the Lang Sault rapids.
 The cable was attached to the boat because it was feared that if it were turned loose or even had a larger boat been used, the churning waters would have swept it away
 After the passengers were landed, makeshift repairs were made upon the vessel, which had broken her rudder chain before being dashed against the rocks.
 Ogdensf urg, V. Y. J,ly 17.-Pas- sengers wer' be and., slowly to- day and tonight from the steamer Rapids King, of the Canada Steam ship Li:e which was disabled in Long Saulte rapids in the St. Law renee river yesterday Because of the dangerous current. the passen- gers were being ia ken off in e small boat attached to a strong cable at the rate of only 20 an hour. It was not. expected early tonight that the work of rescue would be completed until after midnight, as the steamer had aboard S30 passengers and a large crew. No lives have been lost.
 The accident, said by old river men to be the first of it's kind in the Long Saulte rapids in more than 50 years, occurred yesterday afternoon when the Rapids King. bound from Pres colt. Ontario, to Montreal. broke her rudder chain. With much difficulty the crew, by means of the tiller, managed to beach the vessel 75 feet from Barnhardts island
 Hole Torn in vessel
 When the rudder chain broke the steamer had just passed through what is known as the cellar" of the rapids. The current was so strong 1t was estimated at Is miles an hour that the big boat was turned com pletely around and hole torn in a forward compartment before she was beached. The steamer listed slightly to starboard.
 Captain Batten of the Rapids King, one of the oldest pilotsNon the river, had a small boat launched with two sa ilors as oarsmen. made landing after perilous trip and sent for re- lief.
 Farmers for miles around hurried to the scene and attempted to reach the vessel in small boats. but were unsuccessful Late last night a line | tI- Iy,, !, tf V-I, I aboard the steamer and heavy cable stretched from the ship to the shore. Work of rescue began at o'clock this morning.
 As they were landed on the island the passengers were taken by auto mobile to the lower end and ferried aoros to Cornwell, Ont, where some bearded the Rapids Queen, a sister ship to the disabled boat. but the ma iority apparently attempted to com plete their journey by rail.
