Three Hundred Fishermen Adrift on Ice in
Saginaw Bay-Terrible Calamity Threat
ened-Drifting Twenty-Five Miles on the
'Floe'-Two Hundred Escape 10
the Shore with Dificulty-A
Hundred Men Yet to Rescue

DETROIT, Mich, Feb. %, 1874
During the present winter there has been
located on the Ice IN saginaw Bay, about one mile
from the mouth OF Saginaw River, q village con-
sisting OF about sixty shanties, and inhabited by
about 800 fishermen from Bay city and the VII
lagos OF Bangor and Essexyille. About eight
O'Clock this morning, after the men had gone TO
their fish traps, party just OF the east shore Of
the Saginaw River, and about eighty rods into the
bay, discovered that the strong southwest gale
then prevailing had caused the ice to crack, and
that they were floating rapidly in northeastery
direction.
Turning to 60 to the village they discovered par
ties in every direction hurrying wildly toward the
shanties and the men at once knew that they
were adrift.
They drifred in an easterly direction at the fol'
lowing speed-viz., at ten O'Clock at the rate OF
three miles an hour, at noon they were going I'VE
miles, at one O'Clock seven miles, at two O'Clock
three miles. They were to the northeast OF Quani-
cassee Creek at five O'Clock, six miles west OF the
village OF Sebewaing having noated nearly twenty
i've miles.
The floating cake OF ice is above one mile
square.
The men are well provided with food and shelter.
When OF Fish Point about 200 OF the men
reached shore by jumping from one piece OF ice to
another but two men, John b. Porrier and ID. j.
Smith. OF Bangor. were drowned
The escaped men report the ice rapidly break.
ing Between rs and 100 men are still drifting on
the ice, unable to get ashore. Among those anoat
is George Smith, of Bay City, who was with Mr.
McEwen in his dangerous six days noat on Ssgi'
nav Bay some weeks ago.
Great excitement prevails at Bay City and the
villages, and at Sebewaing they are making efforts
TO rescue the unfortunate fishermen.

Experimental Honesty OF Register, As
sfgnee and Attorney I'm the Settling OF
the Affairs Of the Franklin Savings
Fund.
PHILADELPHIA Feb. %, 1874
The bankruptcy case Of the Franklin Savings
Fund promises to be q remarkable one, at
least in point OF economical management.
At q conference held tonight between she
committee OF the creditors, the attorney selected,
the accountant employed and the Register, full
report OF the condition OF alIairs was presented,
and plan for future management matured
The Register is 70 walt for all fees until the
money is fully collected. The attorney selected
agrees to charge only one per cent, IN
stead Of Ave per cent, the usual rec,
and to wait for this until the claims
are fully recovered. The assignee TO be chosen
must agree to accept one per cent, and, as IN the
cases OF the others, await collection. The assignee
is to be chosen at o meeting to be held in about
three weeks.
1t is probable that the entire expenses Of con-
Quoting the suit and collecting all money per.
haps amounting TO $4,000, Will not exceed
$50, 600
