tud. g. longit;de 30. great field of floating ice
was encountered. The ship was In the Ice for
twenty-four hours and big bergs were seen loom
ing I'D from the great eXpanse o: tossing Ice Hoes
The steamer got into the Ice In the Night ana by
daybrcak she was completely surrounded by the
No.ting folds For sixty miles she forced her way
al reduced speed through the lee. AT one time
she struck large foe with such force as to start
h. forward mates. The water began to run into
her forward compartment, and the forward COLI
sion bull:head closed The propeller suffered
can siderable damage by reason Of It's constant
pounding OF floating tee, and one blade was broken
off and the others injured:
The captain OF the Carlisle said yesterday that
the ice field extended far nOrthward and south
ward az he could lie thought that It's north
ern edge must be in Arctic waters but believed
that a day or two of warm weather would dis
perse 1t. The damage TO the steamer can be re-
again. The largest iceberg seen was estimated 10
be 100 feet high and 800 feet long.
