Rishing Schooner Wrecked aud Nine oi
Her Crew Lost.

NEW YORK. April 30 A special to The
Press from New Be II rd. Mass, says:
Nine Gloucester fishermen were lost OF
Long Island on Friday xht when the
fishing scho~, IT j. w. Cunpbell. of Glou-
cester. was SINK I'm squall. The seven
survivors arrived here last night TO tell
the story. They were brought into port
by the tug Gladiator from the schooner
Norman. which picked them up after they
had spent the entire night and day In an
open boat without food. The names Of
those lost are, Captain Robert Smith,
John Mcclure, Frank Sylvia. Thomas
Rogers, George Ella, William McAllister,
Abel McCormey. George Graham and
Charles Doherty-all OF Gloucester. The
sinking Of the Campbell was remarkable
in several respects. The fatal squall was
one of the most sudden and terrific in the
memory Of the surviving seamen. 1t was
all over in about minute. Ii happened
SO quickly and there was so little warning
or provide for escape.
AS 10 was it seems remarkable that
there was single survivor The escape
seemed but trick of fate When the
squall struck her the vessel careened
under the terrible blow and all realized
that their lives were in danger. Seven of
the sixteen sailors quickly clambered up
the masts. No sooner had they done so
than second and far more powerful
gust Of wind struck the craft and
seemed to lift it bodily out of the sea.
Then. as If in mighty grasp, the vessel
was wrenched and given a sudden twist
with such violence that the masts snapped
off even with the deck like toothpicks,
and were hurled far away from the reach
of the vortex made by the ship as she fell
back into the water and sank like piece
of lead
This is the story as told by the ST. -iv-
ors. They left New York at O., Jck
Friday night and the squall struck them
soon afterward. There was not the
slightest warning. The wind was blow.
ing only about two knots and everything
seemed favorable for a smooth trip. After
the squall subsidized the moon came out
and by its light the seven survivors who
still clung TO the masts, in spite of the
awful shock of being thrown through the
air and striking the water as they did,
were able to find a dory in which they
climbed after bailing it out. All night
long and all the next day they drifted
helplessly about the sound without food
or water. Then they were picked up by
the schooner Normal.
