Particulars of Her Loss in East River.

Particulars of Her Loss in East River.
The schooner Commerce of Thomaston, Capt.
Priest, with a cargo of pig iron for Portland
Rolling Mills was run down and sunk in East
River Saturday. At the time Capt. Priest
was at the helm, the cook was struck by the
vessel and thrown into the water and lay ap-
parently lifeless. When the mate reached
him he found him senseless He pulled the
manlnto the boat and tugboat coming to their
assistance, he was taken to a schooner lying in
the dock, where he died about fifteen minutes
later He had shipped the day before. The
mate and the deck hand who had rowed after
the injured man got ashore with dry clothing.
The captain, as the vessel sunk crept up the
rigging, but she sank 80 rapidly that he was
overw helmed by the water. He retained his
hold and crept higher. The vessel touched
bottom, and the captain finally obtained o
footing on the part of the rigging which yet
remained above water. He was half-frozen
and his water-soaked clothing dragged him
down. AT this moment some me put off
from the pier in small boat and rescued him.
He left everything behind him on the vessel
except the clothing on his back. His rescuers
tried to find dry clothes to exchange for those
he wore, but, the captain being large man,
nothing could be found to fit him. He had
| not even money enough to pay car fare, and
some was given him to pay his way to the
house Of friends in South street, New York
| The schooner which ran the Commerce down
was light, and had full sail set.

PORTLAND AND QUEBEC.
A New Railroad Between These
Cities Projected.
VISIT TO PORTLAND OF PRESIDENT
WYATT OF THE QUEBEC CENTRAL.

| Yesterday noon Mr.. William G. Wyatt
president of the Quebec Central Railroad, ar
rived in the city at the Falmouth Hotel. Mr..
Wyatt is very large owner in the road Of
which he is president, and has come to Port
land to confer with some of our leading citi-
zens and railroad men, in reference to con-
tinuation of his road to our State line, provi-
ded sufficient encouragement is given him that
it will be met there by line Of road putting
his road in direct communication with Port
land and the seaboard. A number of our
we'll known citizens and railroad gentlemen
called on Mr.. Wyatt yesterday afternoon and
evening. That gentleman represents the bond
holders of his road, most of whom are resi-
dents of England. He desired to confer with
President jackson of the Maine Central, bu t
Mr.. Jackson had gone to Boston to attend the
Eastern Railroad meeting which will be held
to-day, and wll-not be back before tonight.
Mr.. Wyatt may therefore if he fails to see
him tomorrow night--wait and see him at the
meeting of the Maine Central directors at
Augusta next week.
The road which Mr.. Wyatt representative
Quebec Central-at present runs from Quebec
to st. Joseph and thence strikes off to the
southwest connecting with the Crank Trunk
at Sherbrooke, some distance this side of
Richmond. The distance from Quebec to st.
Joseph is 40 miles. By examining railroad
map it will be seen that If the road should be
continued in almost an air line from S.. Joseph
toward Portland il would strike Pennington
on the Pennington branch of the Maine Gen.
trail road. From St. Joseph to the State line
is about 40 miles, and from the state line to
Pennington about the same distance. From
Farmington to Portland is 80 miles making
total of 215 to 220 miles from Portland to
Quebec. By the Grand Trunk the distance is
M4 miles,
1t is, claimed that such line, if perfected
between Portland and Quebec, would, at the
latter city, connect with the Quebec, Montreal
Ottawa and Occidental Railroad more general
ly known as the North Shore road. By con-
nection with this road, connection would also
be made with the Canada Pacific by which
means the great granaries of the HARVEST
would be opened to us and Portland have the
benefit of becoming the port of export for
these roads while she would also bring hither
cargoes from Europe to be imported to tho
west in return for the produce OF that region.
Mr.. Wyatt also states at ST. Ansslme, a few
miles below Quebec, on his road, junction is
now made with the great Intercolonial road,
from Montreal to Halifax, which would furnish
. most valuable connection to such a road as
Is projected
1t is reported that Mr.. Wyatt has number
IF strong friends in the Dominion government
many of whom would gladly see such
scheme carried out as proposed, Mr.. WAITS.
stay in this part of the country is brief as he
,an give but ten days to his trip, and he will
visit Pennington, North Arson, Bangor and |
st. John, as well as Augusta during that time

isteHs Prayers for the repose of the soul were
chanted by the Ri. Rev. Bishop, after which
the crosier bearer, Rev. Father Doherty, at
tended by two acolytes and priests moved to
the front of the casket and Bishop Healy then
sprinkled holy water around the remains and
paid touching tribute to the dead. He spoke
of the lovely character of the deceased, and
the patience which he exhibited during the
long and weary hours of his Illness The
Bishop also observed how dear to him were
the consultations of religion and the prayers of
the faithful. The floral emblems were very
elegant On the casket was harp and near
the head beautiful crown and pillow of

services nearly the entire congregation took
last look at the familiar face of the priest, who
was so much respected in life. The remains
were buried in Calvary cemetery.
