ug STORM YESTERDAY.

The Rising Dawn Wrecked at Merigomish,

And the Annabelle is Ashore at Cariboo.

The Crews of Both Schooners | Saved.

Several Narrow Escapes —Boats and Crews Missing,

Eanty yesterday foreaoon a heavy storm of wing and snow set in, which raged with considerable v iolence during the day. The suow began falling about nine o'clock, and the wind blew at the rate of twenty four to twenty-seven miles an hour—the greatest gelocity being attained about three o'clock in the afternoon

The Northumberland and St. Law- rence experienced heavy weather during the trips between Summerside and Point du Chene and Charlottetown and Pictou. So thick was the weather that at times the oficers could not see the length of the steamers. However, both got over al right, after several hours delay.

From various sections of the Province | come reports of disasters, and several boats | and crews are reported missing from lobster |

i

factories. ;

Four boats are reported missing from Donald Farquharson’s factory at Canoe! Cove.

Mr. McLean, of Canoe Cove, who ar- rived in ‘hecity this forenoon, reports three boats mi sing trom his son's factory and three from Livingstone’s.

It is stated that several boats came | ashore at Squaw Bay, but we have not | beea able to verify the rey ort.

James Juhoston, E q-s left Victoria yesterday morning at six o'clock, tu attend his herring nets. The storm came up, and after several hours’ hard battling with the elements, he Janded on Thomas §Inches’ shore, about two miles from Crapamd, and got home about dark, considerably ex: hausted. There were acven barrels of herring in the boat.

This f&-renoon Abram Howatt and Charles Clarke were landed at Brian’s lobster fac- | tory, Black Point, after being out all night | in the sterm Young Howatt was speech- jess and the doctor went down from Crapaud to look after him. Clarke was not somnch exhausted, and was able to go home to-day. Young Howatt is expected home to-day.

The schooner Rising Dawn, Capt. John Hughes, Jr , which left here for Pictou yes- terday, was lost in Merigomish harbor yes- terday afternoon or evening. The crew were saved. There was noinsutance. The Rising Dawn was on her way to Pictou jor s cargo of coa! for her owner, Captain John Hughes.

The schooner Annabelle, Captain Bisson, which also lft here for Pictou yesterday abcut the same time as the Rising Dawn, is reported ashore at Cariboo with two feet of water in her hold, The Annabella was after a cargo of coal for her owner C. Lyons,

About nine o'clock yesterday morning the tug Fred. M. Batt lett Charlottetown for Flat River with supplies fur the Portland Packing Company's factory. The wind was bluwing trom the northwest at the time. All went well until they got some eight miles past Point Prim, when they found that it was too rough to proceed fur- ther and decided to return. About an hour later—when off Point Prim, on their way back to Charlottetown—they sighted s small! sailboat with two occyp nts, running before the wind and apparently at the mercy of the waves. The tug-boat grad- ually slowed and the boat came up along- side. A line was thrown from the tug and the occupants of the boat were taken on board and the boat was taken in tow. The boat was half full of water when she came alongide the tug and the men were cold and wet azd in an exhausted condition. Had they they not been rescued when they were, the probability is that they would have met a watery grave. The boat belong edto McLean’s lobster factory at Black Point, and the men in it were Edward May and Asaf Stevens, of Halifax County, N.S. They had been putting out lobster

After taking the fishermen on board, the

tug steamed up again, and proceeded in the direction of home. About half an hour later—when about midway between Point Prim and St. Peter's Isjand--they sighted another boat carrying a small sai: and having two occupants. The boat was being tossed about by wind and wave at an:lirming rate. As in the stance the tug :] wed and allowed the boet to drilt alongside. with water, and the men were in amuch more exhausted condition than were those in the first boat—one of them having to be hauled on board with the heaving line. The boat belonged to Living- stone’s lobster factory at Black Point, and the men in it—Frank McCormack and Fred Cheverie, of Seurie--had been ‘out setting traps

we met another boat from our} factory containing Jcseph Campbell and Rebert Steel, both of Souris. They were to the factory after putting out their traps, and everything ap- peared to be all right with them. We anchored off St. Peter’s Island to reef our sails, and while there another boat from our faetory containing Robbie Perry and Dan Kennedy, also from Svuris, passed us on their way back to the factory. They called out to us to reef our sails ‘and go back with them, which we did. Fifteen

By tuis time we found that

too heavy for us, and we turned back and endeavored to make St. Peter's Island. About three miles off the Island we passed another of our boats con- taining Frank and Neal Deagle, who also belong to Souris, which was made fast to a lobster buoy. This was the last we saw of them. Abcut three quarters of an hour later we sighted the tug and were taken on board in # very exhausted condition. We hada hard time of it before we were taken up by the tug. The snow and sleet was blown over us in clouds, and several times our boat was half filled with water and had to be bailed out.

Edward May, one of the occupants of the boats from McLean’s factory, made the following statement to Tak EXAMINER representative : We left the factory about seven o'clock in the morning to put ovt traps. About half-past eight or nine o'clock, by which time all our traps were out, it began to snow heavily and jwe started for the factory. About half an hour later the wind freshened up considerably and our boat began to make water. Then our troubles began. One man was kept hard at work all the time bailing out the boat, and the water and sleet was blown in over us in huge waves or clouds. We anchored

but we could not tell who were in it; we could just see her sa‘ls through the thick snow. Wethen tried to keep the boat bofore the wind, but cou!d not do soon ac- count of the raging storm. After being knocked about for some time we sighted the tug, and were soon on beard. Just as we were being taken on board the side of our boat came in contact with the tug and was smashed in.
