The Floating Fishermen.

The Floating Fishermen.
DETROIT, February 24-It is now
probable that all the fishermen on the
aoating ice in saganaw Bay will reach
shore in safety. Two hundred reached
shore last night. Those who were on
another, field have been driven to the
west shore by q change in the wind, 90
they can probably land easy. The re-
port that Smith and Parreer were
drowned is not true.
BAY CITY, February 24.-The ice
which driited away yesterday morning,
separated into several sections. That
which bore the greater number swung
to the east shore and all on it, estimate
ed at 200, escaped. About five o'clock
this morning Arthur Stephenson arriv-
ed from the scene and gave the partic-
ulsrs of his adventure. He was on
what may be termed the middle field,
which drifted north east until the ice
broke. The main field broke some dis
lance from the east shore. This morning
Stephenson aud a party Of seven started
for terra frma, unhitched the horse
and compelled him to jump from one
cake to another, the men drawing the
sleigh after them. After travelling five
or six miles their hazardous journey
was completed, reaching the shore at III
a. m. On shore it was supposed this
party had perisbed. As far as sS'eveson
knew all the men on the ice were of
safely, but reports from the west shore
OF the bay late this afternoon. say two
men can be seen on the ice which is
badly broken up between them and the
shore. 1t will be useless to attemp,
their rescue. The two men, Smith and
Parker, reported drowned yesterday are
safe. 1t was at one time supposed they
and many others were drowned, but a.
far as known, with the exception o.
three men on the west shore, all have
escaped.
