Chicago, September IL. The Post publishes
the following account of the disaster to the pro-
propeller Eqnox:
A most terrible disaster, arising from the great
storm on Thursday night, GENES to light this
morning-the loss Of the propeller Equinox with
all on board, 22 persons, not of whom is known
to have escaped. There were two passengers
board and the captain and crew, consisting Of 10
men. The Captain was DIV light Scott of Cleve-
land. The two passengers were Miss Minnie
Scott, the Captains daughter, 10 years of age,
and Miss Hattie'Scott, aged IL, granddaughter.
Capt. Scott was about 60 years of age. The names
Of the crew are not known. The Equinox started
from Saginaw for Chicago on Sunday evening
last, laden with salt. She was near Point Au Sa.
BILE, about $50 miles from Chicago, when she went
down.
The story of the disaster is told by Captain
Lusk of the schooner Emma A. Hayes, which ar
rived this morning. His schooner was being
towed by the lost propeller up to a few minutes
before she went down.
The storm struck the cape with great violence,
but the two vessels plowed their way without
misfortune until o'clock Friday morning, when
Capt. Lusk heard a voice from the propeller
shouting least off your line" which was immedi-
ately followed by the shreks of women, IS
though they cried I'VE drowning" The
line was already loosened and connection between
the two vessels thereby severed. The receding
propeller disappeared from sight beneath the hiss
ing waters. The action was so sudden that no
one board seemed to have an idea of the position.
Capt. Lusk weathered the remainder of the night
as best he could and last evening arrived in the
harbor, considerably the worse for wear.
