Bessengen at 1880 a. m. today. Of
the 81 passengers and members Of
the crew Of the freighter. at least %

survivors included several women

The freighter went down within 10
minutes while those aboard Chamber

was found that all life boast had

No warning Of the crash came to

the liner, 735 feet long and Of 34,-

and crashed the Bessengen amid

nentire engine room crew and others

Within few minutes the super

men. as the vessel listed heavily by
the stern. Many jumped into the

The liner was not damaged. Cap
tain Yves Thomas reported the crash
BY wireless TO police headquarters
before the voyage was resumed.
Three possible causes Of the collis-
ion were advanced by witnesses: A
strong northwest wind which swept
across the upper bay. an ebb tide
which at the point where the collis-
ion occurred, runs with considerable
strength, and the sunken hulk. lying
n short distance away, of a freighter
which went down in the channel
last fall. about q half mile from the
Statue Of Liberty.
Observers were Of the opinion
that all three Of these causes might
have had q eontrihutory share in
the crash. The wind and the tide in
combination could have made the
handling Of the giant liner an ex-
tremely difficult task. and TO this
work was probably added the ne
cessity Of avoiding the sInken ves-
