STEAMER’S DRIFT
TERRIFIC STORMS IN ATLANTIC (Australian Press Assn.—United Service.) London, January 13. The Norwegian steamer Oleaarvold, which has no wireless, was towed 350 miles to Aberdeen after drifting helplessly in the Atlantic for twenty-nine days. Terrific storms carried away her propeller, and the crew were reduced to living on wheat from the cargo. The water became exhausted. ” She sent up all of her rockets, but these were not observed by passing ships. The last one seen by the Oleaarvold was a trawler.
