SCHOONERs COLLIDE.
The Lille and the Ocean Spray Sud
denly Come to Grief or
the Heads


A collision occurred between two schoon-
ers yesterday off Bakers Beach which re-
suited in a loss Of several hundred dollars
to each of the vessels, but luckily nobody
was injured or killed.
The cause of the collision may be at
tributed to an excess of confidence, amount
ing almost to carelessness, upon the part of
the shippers.
The schooners were bound out, and
when they neared each other were beating
under light winds. In attempting to pass
it was discovered too late that they could
not clear themselves.
The Ocean Spray struck the stern of the
Lille. and then their masters decided that
1t would be prudent for them to return to
port.
The Lille. which had just come off the
Merchants dry dock, had her new foresail
badly torn and her aft rail considerably
damaged.
The headgear of the Ocean Spray was
carried clean away.
