On Thursday morning as the steamer Valley City,

up the bay, bound from washington, one OF those
lsmentable accidents occurred which 1t is too often
our province to record.

while OF Fort Diamond, an order was given to haul
in the starboard life boat, which had been hanging
over the rail- swung from the davits. It was
ABOUT five O'Clock In the morning, and still
quite dark. Five men took hold OF the boat, and
while in the act OF hauling the forward rngbolt gave
way and she descended with sudden crash, throw.

that still held her to the davit Instantly cut, and
she was Immediately lowered with two OF the crew
aboard. The steamer, which had been running
seven knots an hour was brought to, and search in
sttued for tine missing men. The cries OF one OF the
unfortunates attracted the attention OF the feboat
and sue had got within fifteen feet OF him when
he went under, This was all that seen or heard
OF the men after they were Knocked overheard, ana
all three are lost beyond peradventure. II does not
appear that any ife-preserving apparatus was
thrown to them nor any efforts made 10 save them
TIL the boat was lowered.
The names OF the missing men are y. T, Dill OF
