1.400 IMPERILED AS SHIP HITS ROCK, Excursion Steamer Races to Port With Water Flooding Hold. By the Assoctated Press. DETROIT, June 19.—The excur- sion steamer Tashmoo, with water eascading through a gaping hole in her side, won a race with death early today while 1400 passengers danced to the music of a swing band and| members of the engine room “black | gang” stoked boiler fires with water swirling around them waist deep. | The 306-foot vessel struck a rock half a mile from the main ship chan- | nel in the lower Detroit River on the return trip of a “moonlight cruise.” | Ten minutes later the ship reached | Ambherstburg, Ontario, and began to | sink in 18 feet of water at the dock. “I felt a shock,” said Capt. Donald McAlpine, veteran Great Lakes sea- man. “I rang the engine room and | they told me a hole had been stove | in her bottom just aft of the boiler room. We set the power pumps work- ing and decided to run for the near- | est port. There was no confusion and no excitement. The crew per- formed wonderfully and few of the passengers knew anything was wrong.” A Coast Guard patrol boat and an Ambherstburg tug, answering the Tash- moo's distress signals, convoyed the racing vessel to the dock. The passen- gers, taking the affair as a lark, r tused for a time to leave the Tashmoo. A half hour after the last of them | disembarked, the ship settled to the | bottom, submerging the lower deck, but leaving the upper deck and pilot house clear. “Apparently we hit a rock,” the | eaptain said. “It is my opinion a | dredging crew, to save time, had | dumped rock in the channel some time earlier in the night.” | The Tashmoo, owned by the White Star Steamship Co. and operated by | the Tashmoo Transit Co., may be re- turned to service before the end of the season, officials said. She was built in 1900 and is valued at $700,000. Senate Confirms Healy. The Senate last night confirmed the nomination of Robert E.
