The survivors asreed speedy sinking of the s in five minutes after being rammed by the warship—was responsible for the City of Athens’ life saving ap- paratus failing to work properly. There were 135 persons, including 24 United States marines, on board the steamer which was bound from New York to Savannah with a '$2,000,000 cargo of cement, rope, foodstuffs and general merchandise on board. Mrs. Florence Pickhard Harrison, wife of a New York real estate agent, whose father, Winchell L. Packard, is presidest of Mercer university, Ma- con, Ga., told how her life, that of her two-year-old baby and others was saved through the bravery of a negro fireman of the City of Athens. Awakened from her sleep Mrs. Har- rison barely had time to put a coat over her night dress and hurry to the deck with her child. “I saw a lifeboat,” she said, “but no one was payisg any attention to it except a United States marine, who lifted the baby into the boat. I was about to climb in with his aid when the steamer toppled and my grasp on the gunwale slipped. I caught up the baby as the ship sank under the swirling waters. When I came up choking and almost unconscious from the water with the little one in my s, we were directly under the bow a life boat. , “A man whom I afterward learned s James Wallace of Savannah, lifted the baby from my arms. When 1 regained consclousness I found my- self in the lifeboat covered with a piece of canvas which I wrapped around the baby. My coat and night- gown were torn in the struggle to drag me in. After that Wallace res- cued one marine and a civilian. That brave negro deserves a hero’s medal. We were in the life boat for about two hours before we were picked up by the crew of the French cruiser. I cannot speak too highly of the gal- ! lantry asd kindness of the French offi- sels. forts that the the time spent on the cruiser.” DIE IN STEAMER FIRE Two Deckhands Suffocated Attempt- ing to Escape Flames Aboard New Shoreham—Nine Others Escape.
