FLYERS DISAPPEAR
AFTER CRASH IN BAY
Rescuers Make Vain Search
for Plane After Explosion
Off Nova Scotia.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, october g.
The crash of plane believed to be
the ship-to-shore New York" carry
ing mail from the liner Bremen. was
reported today by William Faulkner,
lighthouse keeper at Bur Coat.
Whizzing along in the darkness, the
caft was heard to come down heavily
On Cobequid Bay, he said. An explo-
sion followed and cries echoed over
the bay, but when Faulkner and other
rescuers rowed out on the bay, they
could find no trace Of men or plane.
A mail plane, manned by Friob
Simon, pilot, and Rudolph Wauchk
neckt, mechanic, took off from the
North German Lloyd liner Bremen
yesterday, when she was $50 miles off
Cape Race, Newfoundland. in an at
tempt to get the mail to New York %
hours faster than the liner could reach
there.
Flying blind through fog and against
headwinds, they reached Sydney, N. S.
last night, and took to the air again
about midnight.
Lightkeeper Faulkner said that when
he heard the shouts over the bay he
tried to get a boat off, but the water
was so low it was impossible for more
than an hour. Organizing a search
party in Noel, Hants County, he then
proceeded in the direction from which
shouts were still coming. After they
went a short distance the cries stepped
and no trace Of plane was found.
