Precious moments in the rescue work wer§ lost during the night when the tow lines connecting the Monarch I with the tugboats Luka and Sagamore became taugled with the Sagamore's propellers. Three aud a half hours were required to straighten the cables. The Monarch will join the other Merritt-Chapman derrick in the douHe lift at the sunken hull. The first hoist yesterday of the lone Merritt-Chapman derrick failed as those on the grim line of vessels standing by had feared. Together, the two derricks will have a lifting ' strength of 300 tons, believed sufficient to hoist the stern of the S-51 from the choppy waters. The undersea craft is 250 feet long and it lies in a sea of 138 feet depth., so that experts in charge believe the vessel easily can be tilted on its nose to allow the stern to stick out. Then the hull wi'l be opened and the sixty 1 hour secret of the submarine revealed. There has been no indication that I any of the njen who went down Friday night when the S-51 was rammed Iby the coastwise steamer City of | Rome are alive. Rescue has been so long delayed that no real hope is held out for the survival of a single inian. At that most, it was sajd, six 1 men for whom there was room in the air cbambars may have survived.
