CREW RESCUED
AS SHIP BURNS

LONDON, July 18 U,N.S)-
In a dramatic mid-ocean rescue,
the sole passenger and AZ Of the
crew of the North German Lloyd
freighter Targis were saved from
death by British steamer today
when the TargiS burned and
sank 800 miles east of Bermuda.
The Targis, a steel vessel of
$3.50 tons, ordinarily carries be-
tween IA and 18 passengers as
Supercargo. At the offices of the
North German Lloyd line here,
however, it was said that only
one passenger was aboard IN
addition to the crew.
The rescue was effected by the
British freighter Rangitoto, regis
tered at Auckland, N. 2.
For several hours the crew Of
the Targis worked to save their
vessel, wireless messages re-
vealed, while the midnight sky
was lighted for miles around by
the flickering glare of the burn
ing cargo.
When at length the blaze be-
came hopelessly out of control,
the captain of the Targis aban-
doned efforts to save his ship,
and the crew took to the boats.
They were taken aboard the
Rangitoto, which continued to
stand by until the Targis, swept
by the flames from stem to
stern, finally slipped beneath the
waves.

rerre acted like q gentleman
and that they all enjoyed the
trip.
while we were en- route to
Frederick, BarTere mentioned
that he knew q girl named
Ann Baker. He said he once
lived with her. However, he
only discussed the Baker m1r-
der once in my presence. At
that time his only remark was
that he thought the man who
killed her should be hanged
and that in addition to that,
two machine guns should be
fired at his dead body"
After explaining that she knew
Barrere only four days she said;
"He was . gOOd.lOOking man.
He had a way with the women.
Why saw him pick up several
weII.dFeSsed and gOod-loOking
women just as easy as if he
had known them all his life."
Miss Harding told that after
Barrere was arrested, she ane
Barth got his clothing for him
and carried them t. him in the
Arlington county Jail.
She said ne oId not discuss the
Baker case then, but denied that
he had stolen the things that Mr.
Campbell accused him Of.
In her story, Miss Harding said
that Frances Harding, who was
mentioned by Barrere, but that
she does not always live with
her husband" She said Miss
Harding is but Is years old, an5
she could not remember her mar
ried name. The younger girl also
lives on Mt. Vernon Boulevard.

The Pasteur Institute, DR..
Keidel said, has for years been
short of money and recent fluctu-
ations in the value of the franc
nave increased its difficulties.
Beneficial effects are produced
in many instances by treatments
at the French spas, he said. but
with equal efforts American
springs could become their equals.
The difference, DR.. Keidel
added, is in the intensive speciali-
zation by French physicians and
the fact that American springs
are scattered over such a large
area.

maintained his innocence.
The suspect got but little sleep
during the night. Neither did

Barrere was put to last night
was severe, it was said, but de-
spite the grueling questions
: fired at him by the combined de-

statement that he had nothing to
do with the death of Mary E.

an Episcopalian clergyman.

Long before Barrere became
sick and had tc ask for medical
service, he tired his questionsrs.
They said that at all times de-
fiance was written on the face
of the painter and it was there
again today.
Barrere said last night that he
could not remember distinctly his
movements on April II, the day
of the murder. He said defiantly
with a sarcastic grin, that he will
have to gather his friends to-
gether to find out just what he
did all that day and evening. His
only remembrance, he said, is
that he took an automobile ride
that day with two women and q
soldier stationed at Fort Myer.
