A Mystery of the Ocean.

SCHOONER FLYING BLACE FLAG SINKS WITH ALL
ON BOARD WHILE BEING PURSUED BY AN UN-
KNOWN STEAMSHIP.
There has been much talk at Atlantic City and
considerable excitement over the report that an
unknown schooner sank off Beach Haven on FRI
day evening with all hands. II is said that she
was pursued by steamer; that both vessels were
heading for the shore under full sail and steam,
and that when about five miles out the schooner
suddenly sank. 1t was also said that the schooner
carried a black flag. The eye-witnesses OF this
singular occurrence were Dr. Holden, a WELL
known physician OF Newark, Nj, who has been
visitor at Beach Haven for five or six summers;
the Doctors wife, children and coachman. Dr.
Ho.den'S statement, which he cOrrOborated in per-
son, and Tor which his family and coachman
vOuch, is as follows:
81 had been cunning for marsh fowls during the
afternoon OF Friday. The storm having cleared
overhead, although the waves were running noun
tain high, my wife and family drove out to meet
me at point some two miles north Of Beach Ha-
ven. just opposite the life-Saving station, which
Is not manned this summer, we saw a raklsh-
looking two-masted schooner, carrying q black
nag, making straight toward Us, and apparently
pursued by steamer. The schooner labored heav-
lily and shook about great deal in the heavy seas
My attention was attracted particularly by the
black flag, which rose clear against the horizon as
an enormous wave lifted the schooner until the
entire hull, apparently flled with men, stood
out In bold relief. l watched her sink In the
trough, and when looked again she Was nowhere
to be seen. The steamer. which was still some
distance to the south. came directly to the spot
where we last saw the schooner, steamed carefully
around 1t, and then came TO a dead halt. She
remained there apparently mot1onless for half an
hour sighted at her down my gun-barrel, and
am sure she did not move I'm that time. She then
steamed to the north and out to sea. could not
see her launch any boats or make search for the
crew OF the schooner, though 1t Is natural to sup
pose that she did So"
Frank Taylor, the telegraph operator, said yes
terday morning: "There is no doubt In the world
OF the correctness OF DR.. Holden's version OF the
mysterious affair."" Mr.. Taylor says he has no in-
formation OF the name OF either vessel. No black
nag Is known in marine codes save the piratIcaI
symbol of death.

NEW LETTERS OF LORD BYRON. The London
correspondent OF the Philadelphia Press says: The
Athenlpuns devotes fourteen columns of solid min
ion type to the new Byron letters which disclose
the relations OF Lady Byron to Lord Byron, and to
his sister, Mrs. Leigh The whole tenor disapprOves
the disgraceful scandal circulated by Mrs Harriet
Beecher Stowe. The letters extend from the first
acquaintance OF Lady Byron with her sister-in-
tinue through the arrangements appointing a
trustee for their daughter under Byron's instruc-
tiOnS till after the final interview between Lady
Byron and Mr.. Leigh In 1851. They show traces
OF many family dlscords, but no suggestion OF the
lawless intimacy suggested between Lord Byron
and his half-SiSter.

has been at least one case OF yellow fever In that
city within the past few days, although there has
