The Hamidieh Out Again.

New York Times 100 years ago today, April 4, 1913:
Sinks a Greek Transport — Rescues and Lands the Crew.
    ATHENS, April 3.— The will-o'-the-wisp Turkish cruiser Hamidieh yesterday sank the steamer Leros in the Adriatic Sea. She rescued the crew, who were landed to-day at Jaffa.
    The Leros was a Greek transport, and had been engaged in landing Servian troops at the port of San Giovanni di Medua.
