‘“‘Welcome”’ oft Black Point.

NINE LIVES LOST —-ISRAEL SPINDLER THE ONLY SURVIVOR— A NIGHT OF MISERY-——EVIDENCE AN THE COKONER’S INQUEST.

| One of the most fataf’ shipping disasters |

occurring on the coast of this Island for ‘some time, was that of the wreck of the 'schouner ‘*‘Welcome,” off Black Point, on | Tharsday morning Jast. The ‘*Welcome” left Lunenburg on the 10th ult., with a crew of ten men, and arrived at the Island one week later. From the story of Israel | Spindler, the sule surviver of the unfortn- nate disaster, it appears that they had been fishing off Fairfield all day Wednes- day and anticipating heavy weather during the night, set sail with the intention of making Souris Harbor. The wind was E. S. E., blowing a strong breeze but

began to blow with. great violence. About two o'clock in the morning they jaid to un- der the impression that they were south of East Point Light. When daslight broke, they discovered their whereabouts, being in the vicinity of Black Point, between Fairfield and the East Point Light. Dur- ing the night the wind had continued t» increase, and towards morning, becoming almost a hurricane, the schooner was soon at the mercy of the waves, being tossed about hither and thither in the trough of the sea. The narrative of Spind- ler is one of thrilling-interest. How that he was washed overboard, and managed after much diificulty to beard her again; how that the captain set out in a dory, and was never afterwards seen alive, and the others, each one finding a watery grave, after suffering untold hardships; and how the schr. lay drifting about until Saturday noon, when McDonald McDonald & Co., of Souris, agents of the Quebec Salvage and Wrecking Company, detailed the wrecking schooner ‘‘Alice Eana,” to the scene. At 6 p. m., Sunday, she was in tow of the ‘*Alice Eana’’ bound for Souris.

Five bodies of the unfortunate seamen have been recovered, four others yet re- maining to be found. The. bodies were rescued from her cabin and forecastle, as soonas she was uprighted. The whole crew belonged to Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, and to their afflicted friends our warmest syuipathy, is tendered in this their hour of sad bereavement. Below we give the evidence taken at the Coroner’s Inquest:—

TsRaeEt Sprxpter, of Lunenburg County, N. 8., (sworn)—I am one of the crew of the wrecked schooner ‘‘Welcome.” This was my first tripin her. 1 joined her about the 10th of August in Lunenburg. Albert Himmelman was Captain, with a crew of ten men, viz.: Eli Himmelman, George Himmelman, William Himmelman, Stan- nege Himmelman, Almon Sink, Daniel Mason, Alvin Conrod, Gabriel Spindler and myself. We left Lunenburg about the 10th of August and got to this Island a week after. 1 considered the vessel to be well found and seaworthy. She was seven years of age and was built in Lahave River and was never wrecked before. Benjamin Himmelman was principal owner. On Wednesday last we were fishing off St. Margaret’s Chapel. Were there all day and Jeft about dusk for Souris. The wind was E. 8. E., blowing a strong breeze. About ten o’clock the wind hauled into the N. E. and blew harder. We kept sail on till twelve o'clock that night when we tore our jib. At two o’clock wejlaid her too, head off shore. We thought then that we were south of the Exus: Point Light, but we were off Black Point. We laid too till 8 o’cloeck Thursday moraing when the Captain pro- posed torun her. We ran her under a double reefed foresail for about half an hour, when a heavy sea came while the vesscl was in the trough ot the sea. Two men, Eli Himmelman and Henry Mosier, were standing at the fore sheet, and I was standing aft on the lea quarter. I sang out to them to cut the fore sheet but they hadn’t time to do it. The sea boarded us, and I was washed overboard to leaward. Was under the water for some little time. I got ont at last and ran along the side of the vessel which was on her beam ends and ‘pitching heavily. There were four men in the cabin. I heard them call loudly. The Captain ran forward and gotinto one of the dorys. I did not see him after. I got out then onthe mainmast head. There were four men, Eli Himmelman, George Himmelman, Henry Mosier, and Alvin Conrad, sitting on the railing. Three of them came out to me. They held on _ to the topmast rigging as long as they could ‘They were washed off a couple of times. I held them up as long as I could. Eli Himmelman kept hold of the rail, I went in to where he sat several times. Last time I was in he said, ‘‘Israel, 1 suppose you'll be left to tell the tale. I must leave. I can hold on no longer.” I told him he should hold on as long as he could. Perhaps we could still save ourselves. I left him then, and went out again on the mainmast head. Afterawhile he came towards me, and after hanging a while in the rigging was washed off. I was then left alone as the other three were washed off some time before. This was about 11 o'clock on Thursday. At 3 o'clock the wind breezed up. At dark, I was, I thought, about three miles off the land. How the night passed I cannot tell. In the morning I found myself sitting on the rail of the vessel. Ido not know how I got there. Shortly after, 1 saw a boat coming towards me. I had no boots, ror isocks, nor hat ov, IL was taken off the 'wreck about 7 o’clock on Friday mozning ‘by John H. Campbell and John McPhee ‘of East Point. They took me ashore and \treated me kindly.

CURRENT NOTES.

Six Irishmen have been arrested in Glas- gow on suspicion of being connected with ‘dynamite attempt there last January.

At the opening of a new railway in Paris recently, the French Miuister of Public Works stated that the period of revolution for France had ended, and that the coun- try hud now found the best system of gov- ernment.

A band of masked men gave Solomon Coleman, a colured contractor, of Macon, Ga., three handred lashes on the bare back, and tortured him for an _ hour, recently, because he paid high wages to negro laborers.

Six Irishmen, suspected of having been connected with the dynamite attempt in Glasgow, last January, when the largest gasometer in the city was biown up and other property desivoyed, were arrested in Glasgow on the 3ist.

The London 7imes attributes Ireland’s improved condition tu the widow and stringency “ith which the laws have been enforced. It adds that the laws against dis- order in Ireland must be unfliochingly en- forced if England ia to govern that country at all,

Cards were found in the possession of McDermott, now on trial at Liverpool for complicity in the dynamite conspiracy, signed by James Stevena and O'Donovan Rossa. The latter, on his card, stated his intention to do his utmost ‘‘to help destroy the common enem#.”

An election was held in Rutlandshire, on the Ist, to fill the vacancy in the House of Commons caused by the resignation: of the Rt. Hon. Gerard James Noel, Conserva- tive. James Lewther, the Conservative candidate, received 860 votes, and Daven- port Handley, Liberal candidate, 194 votes.

Herr Tisza, Président of the Hungarian Council, in order to put a stop to outrages upon the Jews, has deciled upon severe measures, whic are to be put into opera- tion wherever anti Jewish riots occur. The measures will proyide that any one con- demned to death by martial law shall be exceuted within three hours after sentence is imposed. Oe

The Duke of Connaught will vacate his Aldershot command in the latter part. of September, and, with the Duchess, wi spend October with the Queen, On No- vember 1 he will leave for India to assume command of the Meerut Division, travell- ing overland to Brindisi, thence by vessel to Alexandria, by rail to Suez, and by steamer to Bombay. The Duchess will ac- company him, and they will be absent from England more than two years, their children meantime staying with the Queen,

Slade, the Maori pugilist, is in training at Woodlawn park, in a camp pitched on a hill. His work is done under the supervi- sion of John Brighton. The arrival of Sullivan and Mace is anxiously looked for by Slede. He is at present in fine form. Governor Glyck’s letter to the prosecuting attorney notifying him t) prevent Slade’s training on Kansas soil wasa great surprise. The fight will take place near Fall City, Neb., and probably on an Indian reser- vation. A special train will be chartered on the Central Branch to run to the spot.

A steam buggy is under construction in Augusta, Ga. The machine will be about the size of an ordinary buggy, with two wheels behind and one in front, also water and gasoline tanks. The boilera are heated by two gasoline burners. The front wheel isexera large, and will bear the entire weigat of the machinery. The rear of the machine will be the same as an ordinary buggy, with ample room for several persons. Its average speed is estimated at a mile in three minutes. The speed of the firat horse that gets his eye in it has not yet been com- puted.

Evidence at the examination at Braff, irelend, of Dr. and Pa‘rick Connolly and their sis er Cathrine, charged with impli- cation iu the murder conspiracy, indicates that a conspiracy was formed to accomplish a phivate, and not an agrarian purpose, as was supposed, The witness Dineen swore that Dr. Connolly forged the name of John Carroli, the rent warden, to a will, by which Carroll’s property was to be left to the Conno lys. Dineen, who was to mur- der Carroll, was to receive the enum of £50 from the sum expected to be realized from the Jatter’s property.

The House of Lords, bke the Homeric gods, were dissolved in ‘‘roars of laughter” the other night at the curions svlicitude of Lord Fortescue. He wished to ask the Government to introduce into the Agricul- tural Ho'dings Bill ‘‘some provision for alleviating the great hardship now suffered by the family of any clergyman if he died while occupying his giebe, as many clergy- men have latterly found themselves reluc- tantly compelled to do.” Was Sir Boyle Roche translated to the Upper House when he died? This question recalls his famous complaint that ‘‘the churchyards are fuller than they can hold; people are dying this year who had never died before,”

The captain of a steamer which was in the Strait of Sunda during the recent vol- canic cruptions at Java, reports that ashes fell on the deck of his vessel to the depth of 18 inches, and that he passed masses of floating pumice stone seven feet in depth, It is estimated that 10,000 persons lost thei

lives at Tziringin, and that the total num- ber of persons killed by the ereption and tidal waves was 30,000. Further reports from Batavia state that in the city of Bantam, where 1,600 persons were at first supposed to have perished, 2,800 bodies

‘lying on the Breakwater here. Their ‘names are Gabriel Spindler, Almon Sink,’ \Daniel Mason, William Himmelman, ail ‘belong to Lunenburg County. The couk, | ‘Stannage Himmelman was in the forecastle. |

‘I saw him last alive on Wednesday eveniug. |

-Have not seen him since. I believe he was

dyvwned in the furdcurtle T3000

have already been recovered. Some 900

inhabitants of the interior town of War

are now known to have been killed; and at

Talatra, on the coast, 300 bodies were

found. From all over the Island come re- rts of loss of life and property, and it ought at Batavia that the estimates of

kitied wil nut prove exvewtve.
