WRECKED IN THE LOWER BAY.
What Happened Through Very

What Happened Through Worry
Strong Tide and an Imperfect Gable.
The schooner Caleb Eaton, loaded with gen.
eral cargo OF merchandise and bound for Port de
Paix, in Hayrt went ashore yesterday morning
at two O'Clock. through the oreaKage OF her cable
and consequent loss OF her anchor, on the shore
Of Staten Island. The place where she Is stranded
Is known as the Kills. and Is situated about two
miles from the Narrows and nearly opposite the
Quarantine sanatarium known As Hofman's q
Island. She Is now high and dry, aud efforts are
about being made 10 discharge her. The ews OF
ner strandlng only reached this city yesterday
afternoon. toward the close Of business hours, and
the following are the facts which have been COL
lected, with reference to the AFFAIR by q HERALD
reporter
The frst person he called upon was Captain
Merritt, OF the Coast Wrecking Company, who
stated that he had just ordered the steamer Lack
awanna to go down the bay to her aid. The Lack.
awanna also was towing uown q schooner into
which they intended dlscharging the Caleb Eaton's
cargo. Every effort would De made TO get the
stranded vessel on Staten Island and anoat again
as quickly as possible, and plenty Of hands wonld
be put to work in tightening her. No lives had
been lost, and she had not yet commenced to
leak.
The reporter then called upon the agent who
had notified the Coast Wrecking Company OF the
snip beng stranded and made arrangements for
that he had great hopes that the Wreck
ing Company would get her OF in a
day or so. He had not time, when the captain
saw him. to get full particulars OF the occurrence,
as 1t was all excitement and hurry TO get relief
for the vessel An unusually strong tide had
the cable parted. He believed that If the weather
remaineo moderate she would be got OF as soon as
the cargo mad been taken out OF her.
the Caleb Eaton cleared at the Custom House
last Saturday. She was built in the year 1865 at
East Boston, and ID l10 tons. Her agent in this
city was Mr.. d. }. weinberg. The name OF her
captain Is Savage. Her cargo is estimated as
worth about $4,000, which Is insured in TINS city
principally.
