Jacob Smith and his daughter, with
whom the sick man boarded, notified.
Before the doctor arrived the muscles
of Kinear's limbs became contorted
and wove themselves into knots. His
suffering was intense and his extremi-
ties became as cold as ice, and it was
feared that he would die in a muscu-
lar spasm before medical aid arrived.
Upon the arrival of DIR. Scott he
pronounced it an aggravated case OF
cholera morbus and adopted heroic
measures. Gradually Kinear's con-
dition improved and at midnight he
was out of danger.
Kinear has recently been employed

LONDON. Oct. 2O.-The storm that
prevailed along the North British Coast
Saturday, was followed by a dense fog.
Vice Admiral Sir Michael Culme Sey-
mour and 240 officers and men belonging
to the British feet who were left on
shore at Scarborough Saturday morning
when the squadron put TO sea to escape
being blown ashore made an attempt
to rejoiu the vessels this morning. The
heavy sea had gone down and a long
search in smull boats WAS made for the
ships but the fog was so thick it was
impossible to find them and the boats
returned to town. When the feet ran
out to sea the gunboat Speedwell had
only one officer on board. Shortly after
noon today the fog lifted sufficiently to
allow objects being discerned at some
distance and the fleet having returned
the vice admiral was taken on board the
Camperdown. Here it was found that
while slipping the anchor Saturday the
cable had given way and severely injured
thirteen OF the crew, their lees and arms
and ribs being broken. Three other
vessels belonging to the fleet signalled
that fatal accidents had occurred on board
during the storm.
