TELEGRAPHIC AWS. SPECIAL DESPATCHES TO THE ae
Accident to the Worcester
Struck on a Rock, But Floated Off.
};— Hawiax, Aug. 17.
The steamer Worcester, while on her way from Halifax to Charlottetown, struck on a rock off Canso at 7 a. m. on Saturday, while going full speed, carrying away her shoe and part of her keel and rudder. The steamer pounded considerably, but floated off and drifted and steamed with part of her rudder until she got about four miles off the automatic buoy, when they anchored. The steamer Dorcas steamed alongside on
of the Worcester and towed her to Port Hawkesbury. The psssengers for P. E. Island landed at Port Hawkesbury, and, | with the fruit and other perishable cargo, | will be transferred to Charlottetown by the steamer Fastnet.
{When the S. S. Britannia arrived at Port Hawkesbury on M onday evening she heard of the Worcester being overdue, and as quickly as possible put out to Icok for her. About half past five next morning she sighted the Worcester some six or seven miles north-east of Canso light in tow of the tug Dorcas, of Halitax. The Britannia got alongside the disabled steam- er as quickly as possible and Captain Doane asked if he could do anything iur her. The reply was that they needed no assistance— that the Durcas was going to tow them into Port Hawkesbury. The Bcitannia then put back to Port Hawkesbury and reported the facts of the case <0 their agent there, after which she proceeded to Charlottetown, making a splendid run. |

A Fase Atarm.—On Saturday night last, between nine and ten o'clock, when the steamer Britannia was some nine bours out from Boston, a ship was sighted about seven or eight miles off seuding up rockets and showing other signals of distress. Captain Doane promptly changed the steam- er's course snd putting on extra speed borefdown on the distressed craft. In about half an hour's time she got up alongside, when it ws discovered that it was pilot boat No. 3, of Boston, that was showing the signals. Captain Doane asked what was the matter, and was coolly informed that those in charge of the boat had nius- taken the Britannia fur an ocean steamer and supposed she wanted a pilot | Captain Doane then asked why they could not see that the steamer was going to the erst ward, but received no reply. Neither did he get an answer when he asked the men on board the boat why they showed signals of distress when there was nothing the
