Crew of 34 Taken Off Collier Just Before It Sank in Atlantic. By the Asmefated Press. ABOARD COAST GUARD CUTTER OSSIPEE. March 11.—The crew of the collier De Bardeleben, which sank dur- ing a howling gale 500 miles off Boston a few hours after her crew of 34 men had been rescued, w en route to Boston today aboard the British freighter Laganbank. The collier's hungry and exhausted crew abandoned ship during a lull in a storm they kad battled four days. Falling barometer readings led Capt. Knight, master of the collier, to order his life boats launched in a rolling sea that had abated but little. The odds were against the crew of the doomed vessel as they pulled to the side of the Laganbank, standing by to assist, but it was their ast chance to save their lives. Collier Founders. A few hours after they had arrived safely abeard the British rescue ship, the collier went down by the stern. The Coast Guard cutter Ossipee ar- rived to relleve the Laganbank two hours after the frieghter had taken the crew aboard. A ‘hew westerly gale blew up as the cutter arrived on_the scene and prepared to salvage the aban- doned collier. The rescue of the crew and the sink- ing of the ship marked an end to one of the most dramatic chapters of the Atlantic’s recent history. The De Bardeleben, her rudder dis- abled in one of the year's worst gales, sent out her first appeal for aid four days ago. The White Star liner Ad- riatic swung off her course to the col- ller's side. Two tankers steamed to- ward the crippled ship. Three Coast Guard vessels headed for her position. Afterdeck Swept Away. The collier was unable to stop her engines because of the fear of losing steerageway, and she headed into the gale at a seven-knot speed. The Adriatic was relieved Wednes- day by the Laganbank. The Coast Guard destroyer Conyngham turned back when mountainous seas swept away her afterdeck. The Coast Guard cutter Mojave was still many hours from the scene when the rescue of the collier’s crew was effected. The Ossipee lost a surf boat, a davit and other bits of gear as she pounded her way to the De Bardeleben. After the collier sank and there was no hope of salvage, the Ossipee put about and followed the Laganbank on | the northwest run back to Boston. FREIGHTER DECLINES TOW. Crippled Ship Awaits Salvage Tug Sent From Montreal. NEW YORK, March 11 (#)—The dis- tressed freighter Harburg, which suf- fered a broken rudder Wednesday, yes- terday informed the Hamburg-American Line it had declined an offer of tow from the American steamer Vincent and would await the salvage tug Foun- dation Franklin, sent to her aid from Montreal.
