Newfoundlanders Are Puzzled Over Iden- tity of Ship.‘

ST. JOHN'S NfItL, Dec. 30 -- A ship without a crew. cast up on a barren shore by a receding storm. confronted Newfoundlandcrs with another of the Bee's mysteries to- night.

ller barren spars upthrust like mute question marks, the schooner Ada Maud Best lay aground at Leafs Cove like a stranded Marie Celeste. For, like her famous count- orpsrt that sailed the seas with no man aboard. her battered hull held not a hint of what fate had over- taken her crew.

Even the ship's identity was a puzzle. Her nameplate said she was tho Ada. Maud Best. But in St.- Juin‘: and along the southeast coast ncar Cape St. Marys. when she was found Saturday, none had evcr heard of the vessel.

In the Newfoundland capital. seamen hmarded a guess-that lh€~ was s. smell Newfoundland coaster heading toward St. John's. H" cargo of fish tended to confirm this beliefi '

Liiwlhood ‘was that

Ami it. was more than a likelihood that the an gmous crewmen had met death in me storm that dashed their ship aahore.

They had taken to the boats. it was supposed, during th: bllflilfd that howled over the Marliimes and Newfoundland Thursday 1113m- That they never reached land was indicated in an ominous silence from outport vlll s where they might have land .

Fishermen around Capt St. Marib- meanwhile, saw the 895i i“ iii" another o? the many wrecks the! strew the coast in more Pmsaii‘ fashion each winter. Getting Wi- thelr dories, they climbed aboard the hall-submcrgcd hulk and bwilll begun unloading her fish and the fuel oil she curried for her auxil- iary engine. The suppllrs will come in handy for the winter. and $110 Best's mm will have no further use for them.

Port officials expressed sceptic- ism of a report that Col. and Mrs, Lindbergh and their three-year-old son Jon might attempt to disem- bark by tender during the darkness. They pointed out no request has been made for special immigration inspection at any point.

The Liverpool harbor master sold tonight the ship had not been sighted or heard from, though ten- tative arrangements have been made to have r tug meet and as- dlit tho Importer to dock at 5 am. tomorrow (midnight Monday EST.)
