The steamer Metis, a Providence steam
er, is reported wrecked off Stonington last
night. Some of the passengers were pick
ed up off Watch Hill this morning. Sev-
eral lives are reported lost. Over one hum
dred passengers were on board.
The Nets had on board one hundred
and four passengers and forty-five deck
hands, walters, &c. Capt. c. l.. Burton,
of Bristol, Rhode Island; George B. Hull,
Agent of the Providence and New York
Steamship Company, which owned this

The Metis was lately altered from a
freight to passenger boat and was valued
at Sl75, 900. The freight was mostly fruit,
valued at $4,000. The passengers mostly
obtained tickets on board. The list is not

schooner, knocking a hole in her copper
bottom. She immedialy began to fill. The
passengers were aroused and warned to Sc
cure life preservers.
In short time the lower part of the
boat, engines, ETC., went down about five
miles from shore. A large number of the
passengers and crew climbed on the upper
deck which parted from the hull and float
ed. The waves rolled high and the rain
continued, but the upper works fiOated
and struck the shore just below the Ocean
House at about quarter to s o'clock this
morning.
A Metis life boat has arrived at Watch
Hill, with all the deck hands and several
passengers. A lady with three children,
whose names are unknown, are lost. The
Captain and the agent who refused to take

ments of the pilot house. One life boat is
