schooner Lottie Bennett sailed in
through the Golden Gate yesterday,
flying the Stars and Stripes as mute
evidence of an American crews vic
tory in a hand-to-hand battle off an
island in the Pacific with South Sea
islanders. The islanders were led by
an Englishman, according TO mem
bers of the crew.
The Lottie Bennett was en- route
from Niuatobutabu to this port with
a cargo of copra, the sailors said,
when she dropped anchor off the
island of Nieufua, in the Tonga
group, just as a terrific equatorial
storm blew Up. Captain Neils Jensen
and his crew of ten went ashore to
escape the gale.
After the gale they prepared to re,
turn to their vessel. They said they
were greeted by wild yells and a
shower of missiles from the ship.
Then, according to their story, an
English plantation manager named
Ramsey, one of the two white men
living on Nieufua, informed them he
had found the vessel, abandoned,
and had taken possession of it.
Although the natives outnumbereo
the Americans nearly three to one.
The Americans finally threw the ma
tives overheard, put handouts on
Ramsey and set him ashore.

adjournment of the Atlantic City
negotiations, Chairman Hammond
hurried to THE white house and was
awaiting President Coolidge there
when the executive returned from
lunch at his hotel. The two imme-
diatealy went into conference.
Chairman Hammond spent fifte9n
, minutes with the president, and
then called a meeting of the men-
bers of the commission now in
