NAVAL LAUNCH SUNK BY RIVER STEAMER Thirty-Five Sailors from Gla cier Thrown Into San Fran cisco Bay by Collision. THREE DROWN, TEN HURT San Francisco, Nov. 25. Three United States sailors met death here today and half a score were injured when a. launch carrying thirty-five men of the supply ship Glacier's crew was swept under the paddle blades of the stern wheel river steamer Apache.

Daniel's father, Dave Daniel, lives at Franklin, Texas, and Heiberger has a sister, Mrs. Louise Schneider, at Arvada, Colo. A pul- motor crew trom the city tire depart ment worked over Heiberger for two hours with no success. He was picked up half a mile from shore, too much exhausted to recuperate. -i The name of Seaman W. L. Daniel was given out by naval authorities as among the dead. Late in the day Daniel, who had overstayed his leave, appeared on the wharf. . Seriously injured: Fred Wrlffht, seaman, Ronton, Wain., In ternally hurt. Japaneae cook, ekull fractured. , The launch, putting off crowded with men returning from shore leave, was swept by the tide under the stern wheelxot the Apache. The big steel paddle blade sheared off the stem of the launch, which sank like a atone, and every man aboard fended for him self. '1. ; - .- .. . A fleet of small boats .was tushed to tbetenft and began 'tricking up men. The United States cruiser South Dakota, at anchor on Man-o'-War Row, a mile away, rushed its launches to the rescue and picked up the first body. , . ! . - , One man, Fred Wright, was taken to the harbor emergency hospital All the others went to the Glacier. : The accident occurred almost in the path of the Trans-bay ferry boats bringing thousands of commuters to San Francisco from Oakland, Berke ley and Alameda. These were first aware of it when a little cloud of sea going tugs and launches scattered from the piers allotted to various tow ing companies and clustered around the Apache. To the fact that these craft were so near at hand was attrib uted the remarkably small loss of life as contrasted with ail upset in New York harbor some years ago. The launch, in charge of Bob Rob erts, coxwain, put out from the slip between piers 14 and 16. At pier 14 lay naval water barge 25. At pier 16 was the Apach just docking. The space between was small, but Roberts considered it ample, and headed the launch midway between the two big boats. As the launch ran out from the-protecting, piers the tide caught, it and swept it against the stern of the river steamer. The Apache's wheel was reversed and revolving slowly. Before Roberts could twist his wheel the launch was directly under-the great steel blade. Berlin Hints Britannic Was Used for Transport Work London, Nov. 25.
