Loss of Southwest Va. Cattle at

HGd,
The British Steamship Baltimore,
which left Baltimore for London on
Tuesday of last week, having on board
1903 beef cattle belonging to Mr.. w. A..
Stuart, of Russell county, besides other
freight, encountered n terrific gale on
Thursday.
The cattle were in pens, 40 on the up
per deck and 25S between decks. The
steamship, headed oceanwards, shipped
much water on Thursday, but all was
well until night set in, when the wind
increased TO n hurricane. The waves
dcluged the ship and the decks were at
times under water for hours together.
One pen of cattle after anoth wa swept
overheard and The poor beasts beloved
aud moancd, aud, occasionally breaking
their lashings, ran fHutically hilherand
thithcr seeking shelter as best they
could from the fury of the storm, which
terrified them. Before leaving Balu-
more they had all been comfortably
housed in the pens and tied with halters
'faMnC inward from The adrs Of The ship.
When the gale swept the pens many of
the cattle that were not lost were torn
loose from the stalls ON the upper deck
and crowded together in the waist Of the
ship, where the houses served as some
protection. Between decks the cattle
were submerged IN water to their bellies
some were drowned and others died Of
suilocation after the matches were tight
ly battcncd down.
The Baltimore SUNS report gives the
number of cattle lost as one hundred,
but son Of Mr.. Stuart who was in
Wytheville Monday says the loss does
not exceed sixty head, and that they
were In surcd for $l00 per head.
The cattle were In charge of Mr.. Isaac
Roberts and eleven other Virginia drov-
ers, all yeung men from the neighbor-
hood of Mr., Stuart's home. OF these
only Roberts and one other had crossed
the Atlantic. The others were green
hands who had never been to sea, and
they were all used up by sen sickness.
Their story was the comic side to the
tragedy on the Baltimore, and the bray
est of them said they did not care to
make another venture on the Atlantic.
OF the lost cattle some were swept over
board others drowned between decks
aud the rest were smothcrcd.
THE CAPTAIN KILLED.
Captain Rowlcs, of Chester, England,
the commander Of the vessel was killed
during the gale by a "gn-block' which
fell from lls fastening and struck the
unfortunate commander on the head,
crushing his skull and killing him In
stantly.
The vessel returned to Bartlmcre har-
Dor Sunday aud the SuN says that "thc
cattle drivers, seated IN the sunshine on
bales Of soaking hay, were singing 'fhc

his wife went to Mississippi to get the

of his was shot through the body and
tell from his horse, In the immediate
presence of the enemy, when it was
almost certain death to falter with the
enemy, he got down and helped his
wounded companion to his saddle,
held him to his place and carried
him safely beyond the reach OF dan

day. He owns fifty thousand dollars
in U. s. bonds, aud leaves me to
worse fate than that from which | res
cued him at the peril Of my l'fe. If

The name of Jesse James was not then
so familiar as now, but our informant.
to whom Shepard stated these facts,
thinks he gave James as the name of
the traitor. o.
George Shepard was sent to the pen

penalty OF the law. Upon his release
