eating board today, to tell their
story of what happened on the
three months cruise OF the Gov

that is as replete with thrills as
any of the paper-back novels OF the
past.
There were 81 members in the
crew when the vessel sailed from

Is available to testify before this
Government board which is con-
sidering the question of bringing
criminal action against the sailors.
TWO MET DEATH
Two of the men met violent
deaths on this trip, one in hand
to-hand fight in Jacksonville
(Fla.) resort, in which knives
flashed and guns roared.
The other met death in the
waters of the 1ar-off harbor of
Victoria, Brazil, when a canoe in
which he was attempting to Jump
ship" capsized, throwing four men
into the water. Three OF them
were rescued.
The remaining four members OF
the crew managed to desert the
ship in various ports of call on the
voyage which ended this week
when the ship docked in Baltimore
and a Government investigation
of the case was ordered.
Capt. Joseph Gainard, master
of the vessel First Mate Weston
T. Healy and Chief Engineer
James Middleton testified yeSter-

bers of the Bureau of Marine In
spection and Navigation.
Testimony of all the officers

was at anchor in Montevideo,
Uruguay, the crew went on strike
and refused to obey the orders Of
the ships officers.
1t was only after the captain,
who served in the Navy during
the World War, had telephoned
Washington and received instruc-
tons to place the ringleaders in
irons unless they returned to work.
that the crew members finally
yielded.
The chief mate testified that
John Burgess, a sailor, was shot
to death during the fight in Jack
sonville. The second death was
that of Howell Gill. another sailor.
FOUR TRY TO ESCAPE
Captain Gainard had issued or
ders that no shore leave was to be
allowed the crew, the mate said.
Four men then attempted to
escape the ship in small dugout
canoe. Overweighted by the
mems baggage, the craft over
turned and Gill was drowned.
Three men deserted the vessel
in Santos, Brazil, the mate said,
and a fourth, who had been
shipped in Jacksonville to replace
the murdered sailor, deserted
when the vessel stopped at that
port on the homeward journey.
