A dozen men, manning the tug
and four barges it had in tow, were
thrown into the water by the crash.
Nearby vessels saved most of the
men swimming in the water and two
of the crew swan to shore. AL.
though varied reports were received
BY police ii was said that all but
one man were accounted for.
The accident occurred either
through q MISUNDERSTANDING of eia-

currents which swung the tug
across the liners bow. Following
the crash the Chaplin ran aground,
hut later was pulled into dock with.
out injury to any OF ESQ passengers

Most OF the passengers were
asleep when the crash occurred. The
impact Of striking the tug WAS not
great enough to shake them badly,
but the subsequent Jar Of running
aground precipitated a near panic.
Leap TO Avoid Crash
The crew consisted OF us or is

when the liner bore down upon them,
