MORE THAN EIGHTY PERISH IN FINNISH SEA DISASTER Many School Children Be- lieved to Have Been Among Victims (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Helsingtors, Finland, Sept. 9.-- Police today set a tentative total of 82 persons, most of them school children, drowned Saturday when the Finish steamer Kuru went Sia in a storm just outside the bor at Tammerfors. More than 20 were saved. A coherent account of the dis- aster still was unobtainable, those who survived the sinking being so affected by shock and slowness of their recovery from the experience they were about to give only sparse details. It seemed the ship with about 100 passengers and a crew of 12 aboard left the harbor for a short trip in the midst of a storm, Out- side the harbor it ran into a large wave, which swamped it. Passengers, most of them be- low deck, were panic stricken, and according to the captain, who was saved; rushed to one side of the vessel, which then capsized. There were sufficient life belts but the passengers were uninstructed in the use of them. Rescue steamers reaching the scene said they found the Kifru floating bottomup with persons clinging to it until the waters swept many off into the water. Life boats were launched but quickly capsized in the turbulent water. The high waves made the rescue work extremely difficult.
