Yawls Smashed.
"In the meantime the yawls with one
exception were smaahed and torn from
their davits. The snow fell in clouds,
through which it was impassible to see
more than a few feet, and in. the roar of
the gale the eiret: could not be heard any
distance.
"Later the sky cleared, but the wind
hetet upand dashed us about. We could
not get out of the trough,. and were drift-
ing rapidly before the w1nd. When day-
break came we found oure,elves a xaile off
Port Frank. A couple of hours later the
ship's keel went on a shoal and it felt
like the finish. A Ida sea -was still run-
ning, and time and again she eaeed off,
raised by the waves only to go harder
than before.
Marooned.
"Finally she set fast and after that we
got only the eide laeh as she rolled in the
heavy. seas. Monday night -we found our -
elves without fire and. practically without
food and eoaked through and shivering

hunted about and got a little coal and
tried to xnake fires to keep warm. but it
was a tough Job.
"All night waves, buffeted 118 and Tues-

were:then 1,000 yards from the beach. Late
in the afternoon the gale eased off a

"A number of people from the village
and a couple of fishermen were .attracted
*lit and were prepared to help them in.
They plunged into the water and sent np
a, cheer we could hear 'when the men were
landed.
"Later in the afternoon we tied a wire
cable to a big -orate of goods and east it
overboard. The orate- found ite way in,

ANOTHER MYSTERY SHIP.
A deepatch from Sarnia says: The ter-
rible tell of the blizzard which. swept over
the Great Lakes. on Sunday and Monday
of last -week oontinuee to increase as the
fleeting azure hffing (1.71 mmorte of new
wrecks scattered along fthe thousands of
=Ha of coast line on the Great Lakes.,
On Friday morning, at the Reid Wrecking
°face here, taro messages arrived telling
that Lake Ruron holds, another mystery
ship floating on tao surface o/ the lake
neer Point .aux Barques. This boat him
a red hull and is supposed eo be the Oar-
rathere, wItob has already been given up
for loat, with her .entire crew of twenty -
aye men. The fest report of the vessel
was received from Duluth, where the mace
ter of the steamer W. 11. Gratwick re-
ported on his arrival that the had sighted
an overturned hulk on his trip Up. Re-
ports here declare that the description
answers the Carruthers very closely. Se-
venvl don -bound boatel on Friday man -
lag were nailedas they paned down the
river, but nothing could be found out
from the captain, as they reported that
they had not seen the overturned boat.
This is very easily aosounted for, as the
freighteremay have been well out from
the shore when paesing Point aux. Bar-
ques. With this last report in, it ie
thought here that the main features of
the big fannday star= have been brought
te light and that there will .not be any
large additions to the total of the dead,
except aa they come from. the list of the

ceived at Marine City on Friday telling
of the less of the eteanier Major at White-
