Ocean Steamer City of Birmingham Still Sunk After Collision
No steps have been taken to float the Ocean Steamship Company steamer City of Birmingham which sank near buoy No 9 after striking an underwater obstruction. A conference of underwriters engineers and agents decided to report to English underwriters to approve raising the vessel. The 19 year old ship worth about 150000 dollars is insured and may be raised if deemed worthwhile. Work could begin soon with wreckmaster Sorensen or the Boston Towboat Company.
