LONDON, August 19.—Fifteen mem- bers of the crew of the Spanish seamer Ogono were drowned yesterday when their boat was rammed and sunk by the British tug King's Cross in the North Sea, 30 miles off Humber. The King’s Cross, badly damaged, picked up \he remaining members fo the crew. ‘The Ogeno was struck amidships and sank in six minutes, the crew of 25 hav- ing no time to launch its boats. The King's Cross picked up eight members of the crew, who clung to a lifeboat, and two others struggling in the water. The drowned included the ship’s cap- tain and all officers with the exception of Second Mate Ugalda. The survivors were landed by the King's Cross at Grimsby. The bow of the King's Cross was badly damaged. Second Mate Ugalda said he was on the bridge with Capt. Sandina at 8 am,, when he saw the lights of a ship ap- proaching and heard short blasts from the siren. Almost immediately the collision ¢c- curred, the Ogono takinf a big list-and rapidly sinking. He went, with others, to try to launich the starboard lifeboat, but dived over- board when he realized tke effort was hopeless. He and others gathered about one of the Ogono’s upturned lifeboats and clung to it until rescued. “I saw the captain diving into the sea, but that was the last I saw or heard of him,” said the mate. “The scene was terrible. Men were shputing and screaming, and I shouted to them until I became almost too hoarse to whisper. “I and four more of our crew clung for about an hour to the upturned keel of one of our boats before the King's Cross rescued us. I saw the chief en- gineer and the chief mate clinging to a piece of wood. They drifted away and were lost. Steward Juan Lands had. a wonderful escape. A wave car- ried him to the mast. When he was picked up about two hours later only a foot or two of the mast was showing above the water. | “Our limbs wecre absolutely frozen | and we were terribly exhausted when | picked up:” | Capt. G. Anderson of the King's Cross said he was asleep at the time of | the collision and the force of the im- pact threw him to the floor of his bunk. “Mate Gardener was on the bridge,” he said, “and he told me he did not see the Ogono until he was| right on- top of her. It was then im-| possible to avoid collision. “The Spanish ship must have sunk | like a stone because when I came on deck all I could see was her stern light.” Capt. Anderson said his boat cruised for two hours after the last man was p;c¥_erd up without finding further sign of life. | The Ogono was bound to Middles- | borough with rgo of iron and ore. | THREE MOTORISTS DROWN| * A AR | Two Others Held Charged With| Causing Fatalities. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., August 19 (#)—Bodies of three men drowned Saturday when their automobile plunged through a bridge rail into the Mississippi River were recovered yes- terday. Two men are under arrest sus- pected of driving an auto which struck the machine before it went into the | river. . | The dead are Charles T. Tracey, 42: | Clarence W. Score, 30, and Ludwig J. Forsbeck, 24, all of Minneapolis. An automobile abandoned at the edge of the bridge following the acci- dent was found yesterday.

Chatham, 32, a student pilot, was killed yesterday when he fell from the training plane piloted by his in- structor, Beeler Blevins. Blevins had just completed Chat- ham’s first instruction flight, and had nosed the plane toward the landing field, when he felt a lurch and, looking around, saw the rear cockpit empty. Chatham feli 800 feet, his body land- ing in a cemetery. Blevins was unable to explain the ADVERTISEMENT. . Over “Progress” On Auto I'lates Court to Decide Rights as to Slogan “Scrambled Up With Numbers.” By the Assoclated Press. FRANKFORT, Ky, August 19.—The question of whether an automobile li- cense tag is the proper place for a State to advertise in capital letters that it is “for progress” will be decided by the Kentucky courts, and the fol- lowers of each of the two well defined schools of thought on the subject con- fidently expect to win, For eight months—ever since the 1929 -tags appeared with the words “Kentucky for Prograss” scrambled up with the numbers on the rear—there has been a divided opinion. Some have insisted that motorists who travel far and wide are carrying an inspiring mes- sage to the world. Others have as- serted that Kentucky motorists are made a laughing stock and are em- barrassed in other States with questions put in an unkind spirit. Everybody was waiting to see what would be done in 1930, and the am- nouncement came that “Kentucky for Progress” would remain in the tags. Thereupon the Louisville Automobile Club filed suit for an injunction to pre- vent a contract for such tags. The al- legations in the suit were that the let- tering interferes with identification; that it makes the tags more expensive without serving any good purpose, there- by depriving motorists of their prop- erty without return or due process of law, and that the extra words are not provided for by the statute. The case comes up in Circuit Court here Sep- tember 4. Fruit Hooks Animals, Fruit which produces hooks five and six inches long has been found in South America. It is similar to the grapple plant of Africa and is reported to be causing injury to animals. An Indian species of nettle is also shunned by man and beast because, when touched, it} produces the sensation of being seared with a hot iron.
