Merchant ships collide in fog off Sandy Hook
In dense fog off Sandy Hook the Italian steamship San Giovanni and the Grekland collided outward bound. The San Giovanni suffered a bow and port-side hull damage while the Grekland reported a hole above the waterline. Distress signals drew in coast guard cutter Mohawk and other vessels to aid the ships as they stood by near the harbor. The Grekland departed yesterday for Kirkwall with cargo, and the San Giovanni proceeded toward Genoa once the fog lifted.
