MARINE DISASTER.
A Vessel Driven Ashore and Six Lives
Lost.
ACCOUNT OF THE DISASTER BY AN
EYEWITNESS.

Boston, January 4. Capt. Harding Vine
yard pilot, attached to the schooner Oliver Ames,
which arrived here this evening, reports that at
O'Clock Thursday morning, while near Nauset
Point, Cape Cod, they were obliged to anchor to
save themselves from driving ashore. Ii was then
showing heavily and the weather was intensely
cold About o'clock discovered a two-masted
schooner ashore just inside the breakers with all
sail set. Owing to the violence of the storm and
the imminent danger they were in themselves, no
assistance could be given.
Harding said he could see four men on the end
of the jibboom with the sea breaking heavily over
them. They watched the vessel until tremen-
dous sea struck her. Her masts went by the
board, she lurched heavily and disappeared from
view and by o'clock there was not piece as
large as jolly boat in sight.
shortly after the vessel went down, the men at
tached to the life saving station made their ap-
pearance on the beach, which was not more than
800 yards away, but they were too late to render
any assistance. lie thinks that If they had been
on the beach in season the entire crew might have
been saved. The name OF the schooner he says
is the Martha lines, which left Vineyard Haven
for Boston on Wednesday. He thinks by the size
of the vessel she carried a crew of six men.

Cnquesonably ugly feeling against the
