Show Icebergs Peril of Navigation Washington. Icebergs are the real terror of the sea, giving no warning of their approach in thick weather, and the only rational course for a navigator naviga-tor to adopt when his ship is in a fog in their vicinity is to stop and wait for the haze to lift.

Gamble of the cutters Seneca and Miami, which from April to July patrolled the transatlantic trans-atlantic lane o tuavel to prevent a repetition of the Titanic disaster. |
