TWENTY-NINE PEOPLE
Thought to Have Been on Board the Ill-Fated Chicosa, Which Went
 Down in the Lake.

BENTON HARBoR, Mich., Jan. 23.-All hope for the safety of the Graham Nor ton screw steamer Chieosa has been aban@ doned here by the finding of wreckage from the vessel off South Haven. The fate of twenty-six men, who are known to have been aboard when the steamer left Milwaukee for this port Monday morning, is almost as hopeless. Veteran mariners number every man with the dead.
 The ill-fated vessel was caught while crossing the lake and fell an easy prey to the seventy mile an hour hurricane which swept the icy waters of Lake Michigan throughout Monday and which continued with little moderation for another twenty four hours. The fears of all concerned were confirmed when the following dis patch was received from South Haven:
 "Caplain Donahue, the light house keeper, noticed this morning through the hay weather portions of what seemed to be wreckage floating abreast and on each side of the harbor here, a couple of miles outside and close to open water. Captain Matthews of the life saving station led party of volunteers on dangerous trip over the moving ice un- til they came into lot of fresh wreckage. Some of it was wedged between the ice, but the greater portion was seen underneath the ice. The parts which were brought here were easily recognized by ves- sel men as belonging to the Chicosa. A perilous gale is still blowing, the weather is thick and rhe darkness combines to pre- vent another search for further proof of the dissster.'p
 The number of dead may be twenty nine, positive statements being made that four St. Joseph business men instead Of one, Joseph Pearl, were guests of Captain Stines.
 "Doc' Ballinger, a manufacturer, is the name of one who Is said to be on board.
 The disaster will prove a heavy financial blow to tue transportation company, as there was no ins1rauce except against fire.
