A e 15 HURT AS SHIPS |-CRASH IN HUDSON Panic Follows Collision in Early Morning Fog—Both { Boats Reach Docks. 1,000 LIVES IMPERILLED! Mané Children Among Excursion- ists—Temporary Hospital Is Established on Pier. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, August 1.—The ex- cursion boat, Grand Republic, crowd- ed with 1,000 passengers, mostly children, rammed the Erle ferry boat Chautaugqua, also crowded to the gun- wales with passengers, in a heavy fog in the Hudson river today fifteen per- sons, passengers on the Grang Repub- lic bound for “Bear mountain, were hurt in a panic which followed the crash. Two women and a boy were hurled into the river from the top deck of the excursion ship. They were res- cued. Another woman with a baby her arms was thrown from the boat’ deck to the deck of the ferry. Both captains blamed the fog for the crash. The excursion boat's prow cut deep into the side of the ferry boat. The Grand Republic's bow w: smashed and twisted, and fram it came shouts and screams as women and children fought to get away from the peril. So fierce was the impact of thef collision that scores of men, women and children were buried as chairs crushed to bits and heavy pieces of the wrecked prow fell onto the decks. Some were hurt wHhen a concerted rush for the stern began. Capt. Lewis of the Grand Republic backed away from the ferry and took his shouting, screaming cargo to a! pier two blocks down the river. A temporary hospital was estab- | lished on the pier. Although the police took-the names of only fifteen injured, they declared that more than 100 had been somewhat hurt. The panic on the ferry boat was quickly quelled by deckhands. The Grand Republic tore into the smok- ing compartment of the vessel. No one was sitting in the path of the excursion boat. The ferry returned to its slip. A troop of Boy Scouts going to camp on Bear mountain was aboard | the Grand Republic and helped in| calming the frightened women and! =2 =0y=0! 5 Sale is On!

Grain Planting Pushed. American Rellef Administration workers returning from Rybinsk and Jaroslav on the upper portion of the Volga river report that the peasants in that section of the valley are util- izing every moment of daylight to plant the greatest possible amount of seed grain. As the sun does not set ‘now untl nearly 10 o'clock, the pe: ants’ working day is greafly extend- ed and planting is progressing rapid- y. In the fields which were planted ten there is a good stand of grain, and the Russians say that thus far the weather has been most favorable for agriculture, with ample rain to assure a good growth. Heads Relief at Rybinsk. Lieut. J. C. R. Hall, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert A. Hall of White- hall, N. Y. is now in command of American Rellef Association activi- ties at Rybinsk. His working force includes one other American, Lieut. James B. Walsh of New York, and some 500 Russlan stevedores and Russian women. His task is to ship 20,000 ‘tons of American corn down -the river Volga to Kazan, in the heart of the Volga famine area, where America will sup- ply the starving thousands with food until the next harvest.
