SUPPOSED LOSS OF THE SHIP HARVEST
QUEEN.

NEW YORK, Jan. A.-The ship Harvest
Queen, from San Francisco for Liverpool. is
believed to have been sunk by collision in the
Irish Channel. She had crew of thirty per-
sons, all Of whom were lost, without doubt.
The steamer Adriatic, which reached here last
Sunday, collded with vessel about where
the ship is supposed to have been lost on the
morning Of December 81, but the Captain Of
the steamer says he did not regard the affair
of sufficient importance to mention it on his
arrival The Adriatic only lost her anchor
stock, and he thought the ship suffered less.
The owners Of the ship believe she left
Queenstown, where she touched for orders.
December 80, but the dispatch first reporting
the loss says she left there January 5. If the
dispatch is correct, Of course it could not
have been the Harvest Queen which the
Adriatic struck. Some of the Adriatic's crew
say they heard cries for help, but the captain
of the steamer declares that two boats we're
lowered and the Adriatic fingered in the vi.
cinity tor upwards of three hours, but no one
was found, the vessel meanwhile having
gided silently into the darkness.
One Of the Adriatics sailors says he was
walked up by shock, and heard q good deal
of fault found with the Captain for not lower
ing the boats before backing the steamer
The Captain positively denies that the Adriatic
has sunk the Harvest Queen, and brands the
entire story as an idle fiction on the part OF
the seamen of the steamer.
