German Warship's Peril.

New York Times 100 years ago today, May 29, 1913:
Battleship Koenig Albert, Ashore at Danzig, May Be Sandlocked.
    DANZIG, May 28.— There is rather serious danger that the German battleship König Albert, which ran aground at the entrance of the harbor here on Monday, will become sandlocked.
    As the battleship is lying partly in the channel, the harbor entrance is effectually blocked for large vessels.
