A towboat named Katie Lyons sank after striking a bridge pier near the Bellaire Benwood, W Va line on the Ohio River. Second Engineer Charlee Dansner, 86, of Pittsburgh drowned. 14 crew members were rescued, with four missing. The vessel, a 534 ton stern wheeler owned by Lyons Transport Co of Pittsburgh, carried eight barges toward Teint Plewant, W Va. The wreck occurred around 4 15 pm in swift currents, wrecking the port side and sending several barges under.
