Observation-Disclosures was received here yesterday
that q propeller had gone ashore, during the gale Of
Saturday, between Sturgeon Point and Evans Cen

shore, and that all on board had persisted when she
went to pieces. But little definite information was
received, yet hardly a doubt u~nsettles the conviction
that the Inflated vessel was the propeller DacOtah,
Capt. Cross, which left here Friday night, bound
for Chicago. The DacOtah left in company with the
propeller Acme, bound for the same port. When
the gale commenced, the Acme turned and put back;
heavy load, yentured ahead. II is probable that she
ran up some distance, when the storm became so fu-
Tious that she could nOlOnger make headway against

time when the Acme reached this port and found
