NEW HAVEN, England, June 3.— Fifteen men today were believed to have lost their lives in a collision be- tween the Swedish steamer Inger and the Italian motorship Literno. The | I Inger was sunk, with but 3 of its crew of 18 being saved. ‘The two ships came together in a thick fog in the English Channel near Beachy Head. One of the three sur- vivors, a Swede named Lindfors, said the ship began to fill immediately after she was struck amidships and listed so quickly that it was impossible to launch boats successfully. The Inger, which was bound from Swansea to Sweden with a cargo of coal, sank in about 10 minutes. The Literno was damaged in the bow, but proceeded to Dover without assistance. She came from Copenhagen. ‘Two of the three survivors mpfled up by the Literno and another rescued boat a lifeboat. Plcked up dead. There 'was no trace of the other 14 seamen. HOPE IN NEW PLAN Change of Mayor and Man- ager Effected Without Loss of Confidence. CINCINNATI, Ohio, June 2 (CP.A). ~—After putting its system to the test of change, Cincinnati is confident that it holds the formula for solving many of the perplexing problems of municipal rule which now trouble cities the coun- try over. ; ‘This year has seen a change of ad- ministration both in the office of mayor ‘and that of city manager, yet without loss of confidence or of efficiency. When Col. C. O. Sherrill, who had guided the plan through its first four years, step- ped out to accept a much more re- munerative position with a chain there were some misgivings. But the new manager, Clarence A. Dykstra, & man with long experience in municipal affairs as a student and executive, is ?ct o:d to start in where Col. Sherrill New Mayor at Helm. Similarly, Murray Seasongood, the first mayor under the Cincinnati plan, has made way for a new mayor, Russell ‘Wilson, for 17 years associate editor of the Cincinnati Times-Star. Mr. Sea- songood, one of the city’s leading law- yer's, had figured prominently in the organization of the system. This machine is thoroughly broken. Two of its principals, George B. Cox, former saloonkeeper, and Rud Hynecka, a lleutenant, are dead. The third leader, Garry Herrmann, one time owner of the Cincinnati base ball team, is broken in health and fortune.
