According to the statements OF the com
plainants she was fit only for junk and was
worth about $1,000. But a time came in
the middle of the war when any boat that
could float was In demand for carrying
munitions to Europe. Charles w. Morse
then bought her, patched her up and
named her the Frederick.
On January 3, 1916, the Frederick left
New York for Archangel, Russia, with a
great cargo of auto trucks, magnesia, rail-
road iron and barbed wire consigned to
the Russian Government
Under the terms OF contract usual at
that time the Russian Government paid
for transporting the freight to Archangel
as soon as the ship cleared from an Amer
lean port. The sum stated to have been
received by Morse and his associates was
$4,000, many times the value of the
ship. II the Frederick had sunk right out
side New York harbor, Morse would have
received the payment just the same.
Many mysterious circumstances sur.
rounded the sailing Of the Frederick.
Seventy sailors, It is stated, left her at
the dock after they had taken a look at
her. One master, Captain Mark Kiebule,
other, Captain Charles Lyman. fell op-
portunely III and had to quit the ship at
Portland, Me.
After she left New York the Frederick
was forced to put in at Vineyard Haven.
Mass. with leaky boilers and tubes. The
trouble could not be fixed there and she
went to Portland, Me-, for repairs. While
there, It is said, at least three men
Jumped" the ship.
After that she left for Louisburg, N. S..
to take on coal.

The sorrowing widows and heirs Of
seven men who lost their lives on the
steamship Frederick have brought suit In
the New York Supreme Court against
Morse and his fellow directors of the Fred
erick Steamship Company and the Cont.
mental Trading Company for the loss
caused to them by sending out the unsea-
worthy ship. The compliments are Mamie
Robbins. widow of the master; Helen N.
Brown, Jean Carregal, Joseph Filguerira,
Florencio Barreiro, Edna Davis and Ade-
laide Nelson. They ask 100000 each for
the losses they have suffered. Other

the ship was loading.
"B. W. Morse &C. w. Morses SOM told

paid and they wanted to get 1t out Of New
York as quickly as possible and get hold
OF that money. He did not care what port

Mrs. Robbins and other relatives OF the
lost sailors first heard Of the messages
through the London papers, and after a
long time obtained official confirmation
from Washington. Gradually they began
to hear from sailors who had left the ship
because they were afraid to sail in her.
Finally several OF the heirs put their
case in the hands of Lawyer Axtell, who
makes specially of admiralty cases. He
set about collecting the facts about the
Frederick and to-day information is still

Mr.. Dillon proposed to put in a cement
patch over the hole. I proposed dry dock.
ing the ship to have a double plate put
over the place. This proposal was re-
jected by B. w. Morse, who stated that his
father said thu concrete put in there
would be much stronger than any double
plate and a much quicker job with less
expense, and the ship could sail quicker.
while the ship was lying at anchor in
New York, off Liberty Island, the water
from this patch was running across the
fire room floor continually.
All the men on board the Frederick
while off Liberty Island we're not allowed
to leave the ship.
They had 100 tons of automobiles on
deck, and on top of that 1876 tons of bunker
coal in bags. The ship burned 30 tons

pected a trick at the time he pardoned
Morse.
But the pardon had been granted and
could not be recalled-Morse was a free
man. And troubles were not long in be-
ginning.
Morse, with his marvelously recovered
health, set to work to get back into ship

up where they we're left when the hand
OF the law plunged him into prison.
The war came on and gave Morse splen-

opportunity, and the readers Of the news

Europe recently just after the news leaked
