Deutschland Delayed In Mud After Grounding At Gedney Channel

The Hamburg American liner Deutschland remained stuck in mud for over twenty three hours in Gedney Channel delaying its Atlantic crossing. Tugboats and the pilot boat New Jersey pulled and maneuvered the vessel free by mid afternoon, with the ship finally reaching deep water and resuming its voyage. The incident sparked financial chatter in Wall Street due to its cargo of gold bars valued at about 1.21 million dollars and a potential loss from delayed interest on the shipment.
