it was found that there was no gasoline

Howard Butler, Somers Boye,
Chester Woolens, Samuel Reinhart and
William Reinhart were aboard it, and it
was towing a dory containing James
Latimer and his son, Harry S. Latimer.
When the anchor eves torn •loose the
launch started. to drift.
The young men on board became sea-
sick and were helpless. Latimer and his
son cut away the dory and started to
row for help. When about a mile from
the launch they were attacked by two
huge sharks. The great fish came to the
surface and snapped angrily at the oars.
Then they struck the boat front both
sides, nearly upsetting it. Latimer and
his son fought them with their oars,
shouting for help to several yachts in
the distance. Their cries were heard by
Captain Archie Hickman of the yacht
Guyasutit, 'who came to their rescue and
assisted Latimer and his son in driving
off the fish.
Captain Hickman took the exhausted
oceupants of the dory on board the
Guyasuta, after which he started for
the drifting launch. The yanht finally
overtook the craft as it was nearing the
13rigantitie Shoals. The young men were
too sick to save themselves. The launch,

Lives in the Furious Gale.
Life Savers Were Powerless to Help the Seamen --
Two Bodies Washed Ashore.
A. Chatham, Mass., report: Driven
down the coast by it northeast stoma the
Nova, Scotian schemer Wentworth, was
thrown upon Chatham bar last night; and
this morning has been smashed to pieces
in the terrific surf. It is believed that not
it soul on board survived.
At 7 o'clock this owning the body of
a woman was dragged out of the break-
ers by .the Government life savers, who
had beert waiting on the beach powerless
to aid since the vessel went on the bar.
At 8 o'clock to -day, another body, thee
of a man, was recovered. It is believed
the ill-fated vessel carried a crew of 8
men. The Wentworth was a three -.masted
schooner owned in Windier, N. S., and
was bound from Hillsboro, N. It, to New
York, with a load of plaster. It was just
before dark last night that, the schooner
was seen by the keeper of the Nauset
Lights_, flying south before the 'gale,
with her foresail set, She was about
three miles off shore and it was believed
that she would be able to find the en-
trance of Pollock Rip Slue, and thread
her way through that narrow channel
into safety, behind the Handkerehief
Shoal. But at 8 o'clock the patrol of the
Old Harbor Life Saving Station, ten
miles below Nauset, discovered the
schooner on the bar. Within half an hour
Captain Doane had mustered his crew
opposite the wreck and as line from the
gun was fired. As the little aline lighted
after being sent towards the wreck, it
was believed that the crew had caught

Montreal reports to Bradstreet's say:
The sudden opening of the campaign
immediately preceding the federal ge.31-
eral elections has had some influence
on trade here, there being a slight easing
off in the inflow of orders to the whole-
sale trade generally, which is conceded
to this cause. But, despite this, the
condition of trade is healthy and a mat-
ter of satisfaction to dealers. In hard-
ware there is a steady demand for all
lines of seasonable goods and good ship-
ments. are being sent westward. Col-
lections are reported normally good.
At Toronto according ..to Bradstreet's
reports, no disquieting Influences have
arisen to mar the satisfactory outlook
for trade. A key to the wholesale situ-
ation is found in the continued activity
of the railroadsand navigation com-
panies, who are rushing large shipments
of freight sent in anticipation of higher
rates consequent on the closing of navi-
gation. The disquieting influence of the
election campaign is hardly felt and
starting orders from the country dealers
continue good. The farmers are now
getting 5 to 6 cents less per bushel for
their wheat than they were it week or
two ago.

was no answer. Others burned signal
torches. In the »waistline Captain Doane's
crew had been reinforced by the crew
from the Orleans Station and several
times lines were sUot out to the vessel,
were useless in the helples hands of the
exhausted crew. Then the lifesavers
settled down to a night's vigil on the
heath, trusting that the vessel would
hold together until morning, when it was
hoped, the lifeboats could be launched,
At daylight two of the twists, the main
and the mizzen, had fallen, and the stern
had broken away. The life savers gave up
all hope of reams. The name of the ves-
sel was ascertained from her quarter
board and part of the stern.evItich came
ashore. The two bodies were found soon
afterward. The Wentworth Was 328 tons
burden. She was built in Port Greville,
N. S., in 1889, and waa owned by the
Gypsum Packet company, (limited), of
Windsor, N. S.
The woman whose body was willed
ashore was about 32 years old. She was
fully dressed. Her face was consid-
erably disfigured, probably from contact
with the wreckage. The ma was
about 35 'years old.
Capt. Doane said to -day that he was
certain that the shot line reached the
vessel, and that probably the crew were
hauling m the line when the sea boarded
the vessel and swept them off her deck.

the Home Hission Committee of the
Presbyterian Church in Canada yester-
day concluded its half -yearly meeting,
at which the convener, Rev. Dr. War-
den, presided.
According to the report submitted
the number of mission field.s worked
during the past six months has been
greatly in excess of any preeediag half-
year, and the total expenditure for the
six mouths was 00,000. If the ex-
penditure for the winter half-year is
in the same ratio, the committee will
require a revenue for the year of %30,-
000, which is 810,000 in excess of the
estimates which were made at the be-
ginning of the year. it eXpects, WV -
ever, that there will be an increase of
from 5 to 10 per cent. in the year's,
receipts. In spite of this fact, an in-
crease of contribution is considered ne-
cessary, in view of the fact that dona-
tions received to supply clergy ordin-
ances to immigrants from Great Bri-
tain will not be forthcoming, owing to
the state of affairs in eonnectem
the United Free Church of Scotland.
The committee decided that some-
thing must be done to increase by at
least e50 it year the salaries of all the
missionaries in the West,. according to
the suggestiou of the General As-
sembly.-
Grants were made from the century
building fund to aid in the erection
of a number of churches in the Algoma
district. Plans were also perfected
for sending missionaries this winter
into the lumber camps, and along the
new lines of railway that ere being
built.
Dr. Carmichael, of Winnipeg, in.
speaking of the missions in the West,
stated that at the present time there
were no fewer than sixteen Galician
missionaries employed by the Presby-
terian Church,among their own people
i
in the West, n addition to four Cana-
dian Presbyterian ministers., who were
supervising the work in the several dis-
tricts. The catechism was expected to
be completed and ready for circulation
in the muse of it few days. This work
among the foreign population, not only
Galician and Doukhobors, but also the
Fins, Scandinavians, and Norwegians,
was a heavy charge upon the fund, yet'
it was proving most encouraging, and
very helpfpl in the interest of the for-
eign populatio», as well as in the lest
interests of the western provinces.
Owing to the number of suitable men
brought by the eemmittee from Scot-
land and Ireland', it was possible to
appoirit about seventy new mission-
aries. This, with the doubliog up of
some fields, will make a regular supply
certain this year.
BOUQUET AT MONTREAL.

Lord Roberts Visits the Scene of Cronje's
Surrender.
Cape town, Oct. 18. -Lord Roberts
re -fought the battle of Paardeberg last
week, but his 'advance upon Cronje's
laager was inade in a, motor car in-
stead of witit three divisions .of infan-
try. The Commander -in -Chief was keen-
lys, interested in the famous battle-
ground, although greatly surprised et
its altered appearance. Thera was even
some trouble at first in locating several
"well -remembered incidents. Herds of
springbok have invaded the Paardeberg
drift, and its battle scars are well hid-
den.
Lord. Roterts found, after some dif-
ficulty, the site of his headquarters on
that eventful February morning when
Gen. °rot* =Tendered himself after
stubborn resistance. He related the
ineidents of the surrender to the mem-
bers of Iris party. Lord Roberts also
traced the advance made by G en.
Smith-Dorrien's division on February 20
and the subsequent night attack, in
which the Canadians lost heavily.
Half buried in the veldt, Lora Rob-
erts discoverea a number of rusty meat
tins, souvenirs of the "alarm signals"
devised. by the Boers. Those tins had
been. strung on wires some distance in
front of the trenches, and the enemy
were thus warned of night abtacks.
Many other relics of the battle were
discovered -fragments of ehells, human
bones, and cartridges; while in one of
the trenches a Boer boy unearthed and
proudly brought to Lord Roberts it
rust -covered bayonet.
Lord Roberts spent two hours on the
battlefield and eventually walked
around the inner trenches.
His visit created great curiosity.

CARNEGIE'S DREAM,
Canada's Destiny, Ile Says, is Annexes
tion With United States.
London, Oct. 18,-"Driititig Together, Will
the 'United States and Canada 'Unite?" So
the Express heads an article by Andrew Car-
negie, wile says those born north or south
of an imaginary line between Canada mad
the States, beiug an Americans, must soon
merge. It were as great folly to remain al-
vided as for England and Scotland to have
done so.' Dorn Canadians ancl AMericans are
a common type, ineistlUgulehable oue from
the other. Nethieg is surer in the pear fu-
ture than that they muet unite, It Wore
criminal for them to stanil apart. It need
not be feared that force will ever be used
to accomplish this union. It will come, and
rauet come, in the natural order of thinge.
Political as well as material bodies obey
the law of gravitetion. Canada's destiny is
to annex the Republic, as Scotland did Eng-
land, and then taking the hand of the re-
bellious blg brother and that of the mother,
to piece them in each other's grasp, thus
resulting the teen happy Wally that should
never have known separation.
Mr. Carnegie says Canada is growing
faster only in the far Northweat, which is
separated by a thousand nallee of berrea
land from the English speaking Province of
Ontario. Mr. Rhodes abandoned his scheme
of British federation ,and thereafter favored
race federation, and left to America more
scholarships that' to ell other lands. He saw
that it was to the Republic, not to British
settlements, his country had, to look for the
coming reunion of the race, with Britain In
her right place as parent of them all,

discussion on tha temperance question the
