STEAMER BLAST INVESTIGATED (Continued From Page 1) and they were enjoying themselves accordingly. Suddenly there was a terrific roar. The vessel seemed to lift itself out of the water and rest, suspended for a moment in mid-air. Then it sank back, with a rolling movement that threw the passengers into panic. Many, who only a few moments before had been singing and dancing, were struck down by the blast. They lay prostrate on the decks while panic stricken excursionists trampled over them in a stampede for the life boats. . Many Leap Into Sea The explosion hurled many passengers into the water. Many leaped in voluntarily to escape the sizzling inferno of steam which penerated every hatch and bulkhead. Captain McVey ordered an SOS broadcast and turned his ship toward shore. The Mackinac's radio cracked out its appeal and its whistle shrieked a distress signal as the wrecked craft, hold ablaze, limped toward shore. Scores of naval vessels were among those which raced to heed the stricken vessel's whistle. Torpedo destroys, s, two scout cruisers, a tende-, even a battleship, parin the work of rescue. Decks Ltttered With Dead The Mackinac, her decks littered with dead and injured, was grounded off the naval station. Coast guard and naval station crews were hastily organized and relief work was begun. News of the disaster spread rapidly and brought hundreds of friends and relatives of those who hoarded the doomed ship. Denied admittance to the naval hospital, they stood outside the building throughout the night crying pitiously and imploring the guards to admit them. As this request was denied a group surged toward the doors as though to force an entrance. To thwart such a plan, naval guards were called out and they kept an effective patrol. Origin of the word coral is from two Greek words signifying “daughter of the sea."
