DISASTER ON LAKE SUPERIOR
Wreck of a Fishing Craft In a
Furious Storm.


DEER PARK, Mich, Oct. "a disaster
on Lake Superior, in which not less than
eight lives were lost came to light yester-
day, when drifting boat was picked up
by the crew of the Muskalong life-saving
station. The derelict was sighted yester-
day noon. and by the aid of strong glasses
1t was soon ascert8ined that the craft was
disabled and drifting. The crew put out
in their boat and came up to the wreck
Just west of the station.
The craft was found to be a fishing boat
of the large size, which operations Oh this
part OF Lake Superior make necessary.
Closer inspection revealed her identity as
a craft that had left White Fish Point,
October 9th, for Au Traipe, 100 miles west.
There were on board crew of at least five
men and w. IL. Carpenter, his wife and
one child. 1t is reported that Carpenter
had two children, but this rumor was not
verified.
No one was found on the wrecked boat,
and there is not the slightest encourage
ment to believe that any escaped drown
ing.
The fury of the northwest gale that
swept Lake Superior was at its height the
night following the day on which the fish
ing boat left White Fish bay, and
stauncher vessels than this one could not
have .weathered the storm. When the gale
struck the vessel she was undoubtedly
soon overwhelmed and upset.
Inquiry received at the life-savng station
IN regard TO any. tidings of the boat has
established her identity. 1t is not likely
that any of the bodies will be washed
ashore, as the disaster evidently occurred
considerable distance out in the lake. 1t
IS impossible to learn the names of the
crew,

through the country like wildfre; but
nothing can be done to prevent this"
The relief party which set out from
Biloxi tells an awful story of the desti.
tuition and loss Of life in the Louisiana
marshes. The marshes are filled with
dead and purifying bodies, in very few
cases the corpses being recognized. The
number of lives lost on those marshes
will never be known. The territory
covered was distance of 300 miles.
Newly-made graves were everywhere.
The only sign of life seen in the
marsh was one raccoon, and il was
floating on log. Hundreds Of oyster
boats and luggers were lost with most
OF their crews, and the few survivors
tell terrible stories OF suffering. Most
OF them were nude when found.
An arriving schooner at Biloxi re-
ports that many bodies are floating on
the shore at Cat Island, Ship Island and
Chandelier Island. No less than 10
were counted ON Cat Island alone. They
had been butfeted by wind and wave,
and were in state of accommodation,
and are being buried as rapidly as the
sorely'trled relief parties are able to dig
graves for them in the sand of the
beach. Before the storm of Sunday
there were 100 craft anchored in and
around Biloxi. Only three survived.
The stories of death and desolation
which continue to come in from the
storm-stricken district of Southern
Louisiana, lying between Pointe a la
Hache and the quarantine station are of
tho most narrowing character. Scores
OF dead bodies are still lying on the
rivers edge, or are in the high and
tangled weeds OF the marshes, whittier
they were driven. Many OF those who
escaped are starving. tits reported that
men and women, driven to desperation
by hunger, are feeding on dead animals.
A large number Of bodies have already
been thrown into trenches and covered
up, but those still lying exposed to the
hotsun are rapidly decomposing, adding
further peril to the situation. Ii was to
relieve this terrible condition that the
Board of Health yesterday morning
sent down the coast large quantity OF
lime and disinfectants, which will. be
used for sanitary purposes. The board
has dispatched physician to the scene
to superintend the distribution of the
disinfectants.
The distress is SO great that the Board
of Health yesterday concluded 10 send
similar bodies in the leading cities of
the country an appeal for help, promis-
ing that Louisiana will bury the dead
and feed the starving, but soliciting the
assistance of the charitable in getting
the unfortunates, who have been well
nigh ruined, upon their feet again.
Ever since Monday people have been
arriving from different points at Che.
Mere. They represented they came
upon mission of relief and were re-
ceiVed with open arms, but instead of
coming to save they came to plumber,
proceeding to ransack the ruins and
little piles of belongings which the sur
vivors had saved, without regard for
the suffering they imposed thereby.
They have stolen clothes and money
and any other articles they could lay
their hands on.

TUscAHoMA, /. r., Oct. 10.-The
finance committee of the Choctaw legis-
lature is busy examining the books and
the report of Green McCurtain. The
more they figure on his report, the
