MAY OPERATE FERRY, ff j^ If The Lake Erie ferry service between Port Dover, Ont., and Erie, Pa., discontinued a few years ago, may be resumed this summer, it was reliably reported to-day. Steamship representatives have conferred with municipal authorities here and at Simcoe concerning resumption of the service.

Lake Erie Vessel Fills, When Plank Drops I Out of Bottom — Aid Nearby Port Dover, April 14 (Special)— Six men were saved from possible, death in Lake Erie to-day after a plank had dropped out of the bot- j torn of their fish tug and the 75-foot craft, had sunk like a plummet in 66 feet of water. The rescued men are: Duncan; McLeod, captain, Will Duff, engineer, and Angus Gilbert, Bill Hagen, Jim Woodward and Murdock \ McCauley, crew. Their boat was the Wilma, owned jointly by the j Wilma and Kolbe fish companies here. The rescuers were the crew of the fish tug Margaret L., commanded by Captain J. A. McCauley. The Wilma left Port Dover early j to-day to set nets, and was about ¦ 13 miles out from Port Dover and j some two miles from Long Point when, without warning, a plank on the starboard side, ahead of the boiler, dropped out and water started to rush in. The crew had barely time to man their one small lifeboat and get it over the side before the tug sank in an angry swirl. By an unusual chance the Margaret L. was close by. Otherwise the Wilma's crew would have had a hazardous job in trying to reach Long Point, their tiny boat crowded. Astounded at the sight of the Wilma's rapid foundering, the captain of the Margaret L. sent his . craft at full speed toward the lifeboat and the men were speedily j picked up. It is believed that the Wilma's hull was weakened earlier in the season when the vessel made a hard trip, bucking ice in the lake near Port Dover. The Wilma was 30 years old. The loss to the owners of the Wilma will exceed $4,000. The fishing season was just starting. ml MI ¦:-:siKSfe V
