A dispatch has been received from st.
Leonards. a well know watering place in
Sussex, announcing the bark Amor is
stranded near that town. When the
vessel went ashore the sea swept clean
over her and her crew would have been
literally drowned had they remained on
her deck. They clambered into the rig
ging where they dashed themselves fast.
They wildly signalled for assistance from
shore and a life saving crew nobly re-

But though they made every effort posi-
BILE to get to the wreck it was utterly inn
possible to get their life boat beyond the
line of surf that came booming on to the
shore. Time and time again
al attempt was made but at
each attempt the boat was over
turned and filled with water. When
it was finally seen it would be useless to
waste further time in trying to get the
life boat atloat, the life boat crew tried
to get a line to the wreck by mean of
rockets. The gale, however, was blowing
with such frightful velocity, the rockets
as they assembled were blown hither and
thither and none of them reached the
vessel. A great crowd of residents of
; st. Leonard's and visitors at the town
were attracted to the shore by the report
} of the wreck and they ~anxiously watched
and cheered the life savers in their task.
, But all efforts were unavailing and the
only hope for the wrecked sailors is that
the storm may subside before they die
of exhaustion. Interruption to telegraph
service is general throughout southwest
England. .
LONDON, Nov. IL Further details OF
, the great storm which is sweeping over
, England are coming to hand. and there
is no doubt the loss of life arising from
, marine and other disasters will fully
. equal, il not exceed, that which occurred
during the last great gale that visited
the British isles. Dispatches now being
received give the following list of casual
ties at various points along the coast:
The Norwegian brig Solertia has been
wrecked at Studland in Dorset; the fish
ing boat Star of the East while entering
Lowestaft crashed against the north
