Newport, R. I., July 22.—The pres­
ident's yacht Mayflower, with the
president on board, in a dense fog
last night ran into and sank the lum­
ber-laden schooner Menawa. All on
board the schooner, the captain and
five men, were taken on board the
Mayflower. The president's yacht
had ,ts bowsprit and one anchor car­
ried away, but the jar was so slight
that none of the president's party
knew of the accident until they arose
this morning. The Menawa belonged
to C. G. Pendleton, ot Isleboro, Me.
The collision occurred at 1:15 a m.,
when the Mayflower was between
New London and New Haven.
After the president had dressed,
the crew of the Menewa was present­
ed to the chief magistrate in his cab­
in.
The president expressed great
concern regarding the accident, the
I osb of the vessel and gratitude that
the rescue was accomplished without
loss of life. The crew of the Menewa
wtll be sent to their homes at the
expense of the government.
