Furious Winds Whip Ocean
Into Mountains and Can
yonS, While Mariners Feel
Anxious Over Fate of
Vessels

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-Gales to-
day continued to whip the north At
lantic into mountains and canyons,
arousing fears for at least two ves-
sells, delaying scores and sending a
few smaller craft crashing into the
shore.
The chief anxiety was felt for
the freighter Bretonia, which sailed
for this port from st. Pierre Dc
cember II, and the German
freighter Heinrich Kayser, which
last reported when she sent out an
S o S 500 miles off Cape May De-
cember 6.
In addition. flutter ran through
marine circles when the shipping
board motor ship Munmotor, bound
for Norfolk from Boston, radioed
for help off Five Fathom Bank
light. The Munmotor, with a crew
of 80, reported a bad list, but later
message stated she had righted a
little. Meanwhile the coast guard
cutter hlckapoo put out 70 hef as
sistance from Cape May.
The most important wreck report
ed was that OF tho schooner Annie
l.. Spindler, out of Yarmouth. N. S.,
which struck near Provincetown.
Mass, sending her crew of six ashore
in n breeches buoy. An unconfirmed
report is that she was carrying a
cargo Of liquor.
Shipping offices In New York
Halifax and other parts were flooded
with wireless messages from liners
reporting delays caused by midwinter
storms.
The Berengaria. bearing Ambassa-
dor Harvey from London, was one
OF the vessels held up. Due here to-
day, she reported she was SIT miles
off this port and did not expect TO
reach quarantine until Sunday.
