WHEN SHIP SINKS

River Possibly Due to
Shifting of Cargo.

by Ine AESptldfeu
QUEBEC. October 16-Eleven per
sons persisted in the waters of lower
st. Lawrence River last night when
the steamer Guide foundered miles
from Codbout, some 200 miles from
here.
The cause Of the disaste to the $50
ton boat. steel passenger and cargo
carrier is not known. and the only
theory advanced is that her cargo
shifted in the heavy seas which were
running. causing her to capsiZe. The
vessel was returning along her route
from North Shore st. Lawrence
points and han passed Point des
Monts. 10 miles from where she sank.
without giving any distress signals.
II is thought the disaster must
have been sudden or the ship would
have been brought nearer shore in
been appreciate warning. No wire
less was carried News of the loss
did not reach here until noon today.
Four or FIVE passengers. including
one woman. Miss Anna Marcoux.
were lost. and six or seven OF the
crew. including Capt. NJ Caron.
Among the others lost were First
Mate Henri Forth. j. X. Laf1amme.

Five Of the crew were saved and

The Guide was well known as an
Arctic exploration ship years ago. and
was sailed by the Canadian explorer.

D|R|G|BLE FIGHTS
WINDS OVER OHIO
Moffett Says Los Angeles
Escaped Area Where
Shenandoah Fell.


YOt' NGSTOWN. Ohio. October IT,
The drigible Los Angeles. in her
turnings and twistines over an area
of northeastern Ohio Thursday night.
was fighting the same combination of
conflicting winds which caused the
destruction of the Shenandoah over
Ava. Ohio. according to Rear Admiral
W. a. Moffett. who was In command
of the. Los Angeles Thursday night.
He came here today TO dedicate a
municipal airport
over Columhiana County. AS the Los
Angeles crossed the Pennsylvania
Ohio line. a brisk cold wind suddenly
sprang up from the north. From the
south came equally strong hot winds.
Rear Admiral Moffett said he began
maneuvering to find an air lane
through which the ship could pass to
escape the conflicting cross currents.
Finally such lane was discovered,
and he ordered full speed ahead. 1t
was at that time that the diriglble
swung south and passed over Akron.
The admiral's statement explained
maneuvers which had mystif1ed Ohio
observers. The dirigible seemed to he
lost as ii swung about over Column
biana County. Finally. as it was over
Struthers. few miles from Youngs-
town. it suddenly swung south at full
speed 1t was at this point. Admiral
Moffett said today. that the air lane
was found by which the ship was
taken out of conflicting winds.
The admiral said the Los Angeles
was Of sturdier construction than the
Shena ndoah, and he believed that 1t
could weather practically any storm.
