ABANDONED BY CREW.
ALLEGATIONS OF A CAPTAIN,
(By Cable.—Press Association.—Capyrir-*-*-. LONDON, November 18.
Tho tug Nana has been picked up in the Channel. The captain, who was still on board, blames the crew for abandoning him. He says the crew was employed in clearing the steering gear, and he realised that he was alone only when the boat was two hundred yards astern. He sighted three steamers, but his signals were not seen, or were unheeded. Ho had no sleep for three days and nights, and was also without water. He had only nine biscuits for food.
