 Once on shore there was a rush for telegraph offices 10 notify rela- tives of their safety.

 Many Prominent Passeng ITS Officials of the Nelson line stated that of the passengers som4 were | bound for Rio de Janeiro and others for Buenos Aires.

Knew Guards Plans

The belief that the supply craft must have had information as to wncreabout of patrol craft vas gen. cral here today, for the coast guard picket line was not in the vicinity of the course followed by the supply boat in it's flight and no other serv- ice vessels were encountered,
 Sea conditions were unfavorable ,or contacts al sea last night and II is presumed that the supply vessel was ordered in as a surprise move, which because Of the darkness Of the night and the unusualness of the venture, might prove successful.
 The probability is she sneaked around behind a picket line and took a position agreed upon in negotia- tons with operators of contact craft, in the opinion of the coast guard.
