P.)-The East Hampton station of the Inde- pendent Wireless company picked upI S. . S. signals frtm the Italian steamer Castel Porziano snortly after 8 o'clock tonight. The signals were answered by the liner Martha Wash- ington which offered assistance in case no other vessel was closer to the crippled ship. The S. 0. S. call was picked up shortly before 8 o'clock and all local broadcasting stations were ordered to 'stand by for 40 minutes. Dispatches intercepted here a few minutes later indicated that the liner Berengaria was proceeding to her assistance. The position of the Castel Prrizano was estimated at 1,500 miles off the American Atlantic coast almost due east from Norfolk, Virginia. The Cas- ' tel Porziano gave her position as latitude 34.4, longitude 55.8, which is directly on the northern New York- Liverpool steamer route about 1,500, miles out of New York. The crippled steamer is of 5,302 gross tonnage, is 394 feet long, and was built in 1920. It is not known whether she was carrying passengers as well as freight.
