America has the best and brav- est fre-fghters in the world. Yet, our per capita fire loss ex- ceeds that of any other nation. This situation is alarming. It threatens every property-owner. It demands the cooperation of all.
 The Hartford Fire Insurance Company will indemnify you in the event of fire loss so far as sound insurance can. In addition, it will give you the benefit of a fire prevention service worked out under the direction of skilled fire engineers. Its insurance policies, including this extra service, cost no more.
 Ask this agency to supply this double protection.

SCHOONER SUNK
WHEN RAM|MED
Sailed From Perth Amboy
Last Friday--1 Missing in
Wreck on Coast

The Singleton Palmer, the five
masted schooner which was rammed
yesterday morning by the Clyde pas
senger liner Apache, off the Della
ware coast, near F'enwick Island
light, sailed from the Perth Amboy
Dry Dock Company's plant here on
Friday for Norfolk where she was
scheduled to take on a cargo of coal
for Boston. The Apache and the
Gloucester of the Merchants and
Miners line. which came to the
scene of the accident following wire
less calls for help. picked up the
crew of the vessel. The impression
is, however, that Engineer Swanson,
a Swedish-American, had been lost.
According to information obtained
here today. the crew of the Palmer
was signed by Captain ]. Griffin IN
Boston and New York. None of them
are Perth Amboy men,
Two of the crew of the Palmer,
Sven Lanstrom and a black Barba-
dian, Thomas Jones, were brought
into New York yesterday by the
Apache. The entire crew on the
Palmer consisted of twelve men.
According to Lanstrom, mate of the
vessel. she was sailing through a
ut about 1880 yesterday morning.
with not a cloud to hide the stars.
when the Apache's lights were sight
ed. 1t was the duty of the Apache
to give way to the Palmer. but the
big steamer continued on her course
with the result that the Palmer was
rammed with such force that every
man aboard her was thrown OFF
their feet and Lanstrom was tossed
into the sea.
According to information received
from the Perth Amboy Dry DOCK
Company here, it is likely that the
France & Canada Steamship Cor
poration. the owners of the vessel.
will place another ship in service at
once to do the work scheduled for
the Palmer. The company has two
vessels now anchored in the harpor
here, one of these is the six-masted
Edward ]. Lawrence and the othef
the five-masted Oakley c. Curtis II
is likely that one of these VIII pe
chosen by the firm to do the work
The Palmer was owned by the
France g. Canada Steamship Cor
poration and hailed from New YORK
The vessel saw considerable wal
service in which severalof her five-
masted sisters were lost. she was
built at Waldoboro, Me-, in 1904 and
measured 2,S59 tons gross and was
294 feet long. Last week the shir
was hauled onto the dry dock hers
and was repainted and otherwise
repaired for the trip. There is
possibility that a coast guard cutter
NAV tow the damaged vessel lntt
the Delaware Breakwater as she was
left a derelict in the course of coast
wise shipping.
