and the poor fellows who
had been on the Nandllia's ward
about twelve hours got on to the
Trenton, being assisted by the Adj
miral's crew with lines and other
on Sunday morning
boats were busiIy engaged ali day
in removing the men from the ship
to the shore, which was accom-
plished without accident. All were
removed before night. ON Mon
day go Samoans from Mataafa's
camp, and the men-of-war sailors
were working hard all day saving
property from the Trenton, and
several SamOans and sailors were
also engaged working on the other
ships ashore. No lives were lost.
The Trenton is now total
wreck. We have just learned that
one OF the men was killed early in
the morning Of Saturday by being
crushed among the broken timber
after the collision. His name was
Joseph Hewlett, a coIored man.
The Olga after slipping her
cables and getting clear Of the Treu-
ton managed TO make Roadway
against the sea for a short time,
and hopes were entertained that this
vessel, the last left atioat in the har-
Dor would be saved, but within half
an hour she was run into (as deScrib-
ed in our last issue) one of the best
positions for Bleaching i'm the harB0r.
We have since last issue learned
that Captain Douglas Of the Schoon-
CT Lily the lately appointed pilot
was on aboard the Lily when
she sunk, and who after great
struggling managed to get on board
the Olga was mainly instrumental
by his knowledge Of the harbOr and
valuable Suggestions which were
fortunately followed by Captain
Erhardt that the olga was beached
in a position where no lives would
be likely to be lost, and from where
the Olga may very likely be easily
taken out to her anchorage again.
We have heard that Captain Doug
las has spoken on very compliment
TAI > ICIHI7 VI tIit IIIdHilGi III when
he was treated by the captain, Off
GERS and men after he struggled on
to the Olga in an exhausted cOndi-
ton. The Olga is on even keel
at low and high water. She must
be well bedded in the sand. We
believe no lives have been lost from
this ship.
