NEw YORK Oct. 26 All hope of the
steamer Brooklyn, from Darien, having
escaped wreck was given up at the Mari
time Exchange on receipt of a statement
made by Joseph Katz, stowaway in the
vessel. Katz says he boarded the Brook
lyn before she sailed and slowed himself
away in the coal bunker He was at
Darien, Ga, when the Brooklyn left, Octo-
Der 12. On the following day he was
driven out of his hiding place by
the water coming in. Soon the vessel
began to settle at the storm, and
the captain gave orders to man the life
boat. Katz got into one Of the boats with
two of the crew and drifted away from
the vessel. The other two occupants of
boat while arranging something were sub
sequently swept overheard. Katz drifted
about alone in the boat until Monday
night, when he was picked up by the
schooner Mary Watson and landed at
Lookout Point, Baltimore. The last he
saw of the steamship she was about half
way out Of the water. The Brooklyn was
in command of Captain A. s. Kearson.
The crew numbered thirteen men.
