reporter yesterday afternoon. Tile captain Stayed on his slllp until the last, but shortly after nine oclock yesterday morning, as it became apparent she was about to take her final plunge. hc and his officers went aboard the Bridgewater, wlllcll steam- ed to a safe distance and anchored. so that they might witness the ls.st` struggle of the doomed liner.
“ It was like watching a. strong man
dying," said Captain Ellis. He thinks that her ' water-tight compartments held, but that when the water started coming over the side they were inadequate to keep the ship afloat. Tile stern went down very slowly, wlllle the bow rose high in the air. The projection of rock on which the liner is pinned is evidently just a third of the way aft, That she did not break in two is evidence that her hull was of great strength and strongly put together. Big spouts of water rose from the wreck as the air imprisoned below escaped. and weird sounds were heard as inch by inch the stern sank out of sight. At about eleven o'clock the stern had reached the bottom and the A. W. Perry stood on her propellor with part of her bows pointing in the air at a high angle, a total loss. .
All the mail and baggage had been
removed, and a portion, perhaps half. of her cargo was taken off. The ship had been moving at reduced speed all through the night before the accident, as tho captain did not wish to reach Sambro before daylight. He failed to pick up the lightship and the fog alarm signal sounded very far away. When the steamer grounded she was moving dead slow and every precau- tion had been taken in entering the harbour. This is all the captain would say regarding the cause of the wreck. When asked if the cargo of steel, forward. had anything to do with the accident. he said he could not say lf it did or not. It ie the ,opinion of others, however, that the lteel in the forward hold would have

He gave evidence showing that himself, Ray McDonald and the latter's brother, Jerry, afterwards wcnt to Sumnlerside, where certain goods were bought. He said hc gave Jerry McDonald $5 and bought a pair of boots for him.
Patrick Kirwin gave evidence as to
the loss of the money Ray McDonald. giving evidence on his own behalf, contradicted the story of DesRoche, on whom Ile placed the entire respoll- sibllity for the theft. He admitted having accompanied DesRoche to the house. having stood at the kitchen door and going no farther, and added that he left the house before- the

ti British soldier who lay ill till- crater mario lly xl sllcll and hurled back at thc Germans bombs which they toss- ed into the excavation to kill lllm, is related in a despatch from the front. under date of Juno 4 fronl thc official observer attached to thc Brltlsll army, as given out ill London tonight. Aficr having got into a German trench and finding he was the only survivor of ills party. he managed to crawl deep illto a .shell crater nearby." the observer says, “the Germans knew where hc was, but could not shoot him, and were pevellted by ollr rifle flrc from approaching. They therefore content. ed themselves with loobing hand gre- nades lnto the crater.
HURLED BACK BOM BS.
"All day long this British soldier
.remained in tho hole witllln ll few wards of the cllenly, picking up and hurling back bombs with which llc was pelted. At. night he managed to crawl safely back to our lines." An- other indldent described by the offici- al observer has to do with an officer and ten men, who. when the Germans stormed and captured British trench- es near Ypres refused to retire. Sur- rounded by the Germans on all sides, they stuck to their trench in the hope of regaining the lost ground ily o counter-ailack. At nlghtiall they withdrew after holding the Germans at Bay throughout the day.
