for mortal spirit to bear. It is as

COLLISION OF VEssELs.-Between IL
and l o'clock Sunday the American
steam tug Tacoma, while going along
side the coal-laden bark Enoch Talbot,
lying at the Wellington Mine wharf,
Nanaimo, struck her just forward of
amidships, staving in a number of
the bark's planks. The accident
was caused by a misunderstanding
of the bells. The captain claims
that he rang the bell to back her,
while the engineer claims that the
signal was to 60 ahead at full steam.
However, the steamer went with full
force against the bark, and had she
been empty would have gone quite
through her. Fortunately she was
loaded with coal and was better able
to. stand the shock. Captain Pen
hallow thinks that after he has
discharged $50 tons into the bark
Marmion that he will he able to list
enough to repair the injury. During
the collision q fight took place be-
tween the captain and the engineer of
the steamer Tacoma, and both are
under arrest.
