Calm Work of the Ship's Officers NEWPO RT, , R. L. : Aug. .IS. (By Associated Press.) Death had claimed 24 victims in the Mackinac excursion steamer dis aster up to an early hour today and at least 10 gravely Injured were expected to die. Most of the deaths came . in the dark hours Just before dawn from the effects of Inhaling live ateam. Up to midnight only tour were dead. An hour later the death list had Jumped to 17. and seven more died by 2:30 o'clock. Every facility of the naval hos pital was called into action to suc cor the Injured. Physicians and nurses worked with desnerate haste, while clergymen and priests nastily summoned , from naval ships and. from the charches of the town gave spiritual comfort to the dying. The Red Cross set up an emerg ency - hospital in Washington square, which within a few hours became the renter of a frantic crowd of anxious relatives of those who early yesterday started away on the excursion without thought of misfortune. fn addition to scores of employ es of a Pawtucket concern who were taking a holiday excursion, members of the third platoon of Pawtucket police were on the ill fated ship. Captain McVey or the Mackinae said that only fine work on the part of the crew prevented the passengers from leaping into the water when the explosion occarred. The pilot house became enveloped in -steam and he could not see. but as soon as he could see. h headed his vessel for the short and beached It to prevent sinking. Later the navy tags pulled it oft and towed it to Kinsfty'a wharf, where an examination showed that the decks, both lower and upper, were .warped about a foot from the force of the concussion. The boilers of the vessel, which csrried 677 excursion passengers, burst when it was .opposite the naval training station at Naragan ett sound. It was said that a . patch placed on the boilers last night had blown off. The steam er was headed for the shore and a distress call was sent to all the battleships and destroyers in the nartor. Boatloads of Injured were taken to the naval hospital. Passengers on ths first and sec ond decks In the Immediate vicin ity of the boiler rooms were tht more seriously injured." The final relief skin bearinr ths remaining Injured docked at the government pier at 1:20 o'clock today, beating the body of a dead nreman. a member of the crew. A number of children separated from their parents In the panic that followed the explosion are being held at various hospitals. The fact that employees of a Pawtucket concern wcts on the excursion Is believed to account for the number of dead and in jured rrom that city. : Most or the Cmtiam4 m yir I) SHIP FREED FROM ICE AMUNDSEN VESSEL - WAITINQ FOR OIL AT EAST CAPE 2COME,, Alaska.
