GLOUCESTER, MASS, June 1.-The
schooner Loring b Haskell Of this port
has arrived home from the Banks and
Captain Day tells the story Of her
escape from the Canadian cruiser Vigil
liant, last Monlay.
He states that on Saturday, June cd,
the Haskell ran into Canso for supplies
One of the men wanted to remain there
but Captain Day would not consent and

was notified to seize the vessel.
As the Haskell was passing Port
Hawkesbury, the Nigilaut's boat lay di.
rectly in her path and ordered her ia
stop. As Captain Day had perishable
cargo and it would be spoiled if the
schooner was seized, he refused to obey
the order. The Vigilant batteries were
called into play and three shots were
fired at the fleeing Yankee, but she die
not stop and in an hour left the cruiser
far astean. Captain Day says:
~ have violated no laws, for l took
out fishing license in Liverpool anC
one in New Foundland, and have til,
right to lay in harbor "a hours withou
reporting at the custom house,
