double the amount of flour ground.
"The export trade was little better, an in
creased quantity of bakers and some patent
being worked Two or three lots were ordered
for March and April shipments. to go east

I'VE went ashore TO save our lives, as
;he kearsarge was beginning to ship a
great deal of water We made several
attempts TO 20 ashore, but We're unsuccess-
lul until we finally succeeded in getting
ashore on the catamaran boat. We took
!our or five days provision with us, con-
sistlng of water, bread, hard tack and
canned meats. We got along very we'll
after we reached the shore. although our
supply of provisions was short, and, until
We dug well. our water was very scarce.
As TO the responsibility for tue accident,
10 not care To say anything. The facts
viii be investigated, i'll all probability, 10y
.court OF inquiry of the navy department.
We managed to save great many instru-
nents, the chronometer, the log of the
