They speak in high terms Of the cool

his officers. and say that owing to their
promptness there was no panic. All
was done for the comfort Of the pas
seDgers that vas possible, and no blame
for the accident attaches to those in

WOODS HOLL, MASS, July 10 An
examination Of the Gate City showed
that a huge boulder had crushed through
her bottom in the middle compartment,
making ragged hole eighteen inches in
diameter, through which the water
poured in quantities greater than the
pumps could discharge. The rocb
proved the savior Of the ship by anchor
iUg her in 4 position on the bhoal and
prevented her from sliding of into deep
water and sinking, as had happened to
20 the steamer City Of Columbus. No

The fish-C0miGiSsion steamer Alba
sross, Captain Tanner, returned from
tic steamer Gate City az 3 O'Clock this
afternoon, after having towed Captain
payis's wI,chipg-scow to tho wrecked
vessel. \ diver examined the ship s
bottom and reported the keel forward
split ard broken. One piece six feet
in iergth was sent up. The cardboard
is started, and there are two holes in
The ships bottom. A big boulder,
which the diver says is higher than his
head, is directly under the ship, nearly
amidships, and has separated the ships
bottcm. The after compartment is
filed with wafer, but is believed to be
Ligbi, aud that the water ran in from
the deck. There is twenty-four feet of
water under me ships stern, and
the ship cau be saved only by
the prompteSt action, as her po-
sition Is dangerous one. If
the sea remains smooth until the
stearp-pumps arrive she can be saved.
Captain l.. F. Baker, with on expe-
Iienced diver, has just left here for the
wreck. -Four s,oam-pumps and ample
wIeckirg appliances are now on their
way from Boston, and will BIO on hand
