DISASTER IN ARCTIC OCEAN
Horrible Fate of Crew of WhaI-
er Nevarch.
VESSEL GOT CAUGHT IN THE ICE
Twenty-nine Seamen Doubt
less Lost.


Seattle, WASH, Sept. 14.-Two sur
vivors of the whaler Neyarch, which
was lost in the Arctic, together with
20 OF her crew, came down on the
steamer Humboldt, which arrived from
st. Michael'a to-day. They are Capt.
Joseph Whitesides and his wife.
The Nevarch left San Francisco On
March I'd last. entered the Arctic
Ocean in July and got caught in the
ice at point 100 miles northeast of
Point Barrow. At first the captain
thought the ship could be extricateG,
but on July Goth he realized that there
was no hope Of releasing her. The
crew hoisted signals of distress. trust
ing that the revenue cutter Bear or
some whaers would see them and come
to their assistance, but the fog OBJ
scured them for four days Finally
they decided to leave tho ship.
On August 18th the whole crew took
the small boats and started across the
ice. Away across the treacherous ice
went the 81 men and the gritty woman.
But one day out the captain aud his
wife and seven of the others changed
their minds about the Likelihood OF
saving themselves by the method they
had undertaken. Nine of the party
went back to the ship, leaving 30 on
the ice. Nothing has been heard of
the 20 since that day, August 18th.
The party got back to the ship safely,
and on August 14th eight of them,
Capt Whitesdes, his wife and six
men, made another start. They took
small canvas boat, into which they
put weeks provisions. 1t was
heavy load for the little craft, but this
was the last hope they had. They got
into clear weather in few hours, and
avoided as best they could the drifting
ice. Finally they could go no further
By boat, and they got out and walked
over the ice. For GO hours they kept
on. at last land was sighted. 1t
proved TO be Copper Island, desolate
place, from which they were rescued
the following day by the Bear Capt.
Whitesides thinks the go men left on
the ice are lost.

Major Raymond's Exhaustive Report OF
the SURVEYS,

the Surveys.
In answer to request from Congress-
man Bingham for information relative
TO the progress of the surveyB incident
to the proposed deepening Of the chan
mel of the Delaware River TO 30 feet,
Major Raymond, United States engi-
neer in charge of the work has made
an exhaustive report. Mr.. bingham
desired the information to enable him
TO make suitable provision for tue work
in the COMMITTEES on appropriations. of
which he ia a member. Major BR"-
moud said; THE survey has been IL.
active progress during the present
season and is being pushed as rapidly
as possible. The distance to be covered
is 81 miles. About 81 mllos are covered
by previous surveys, leaving 26 miles
of chRnnsl 10 survey this year. About
eight miles have already been surveyed,
and, with the present rate of progress,
it is believed that the entire field work
will be completed on or before Novem.
ber lst. 1897. 1t is expected that the
plotting of the work and the com
putaton of the estimates will be COM
pleted by December LIST, 1897.
Continuing, Major Raymond referred
to the present work of dredging the
channel to depth of 26 feet at mean
low water and no said: THE work
now in progress to create $his depth
must still be considered great, costly
and uncompleted experiment. 1t is
now proposed to expand the project so
as to provide for an increase OF four
feet in this depth, before it is known
that the smaller ,lspth for which We
are now trying can be maintained.
am very far from the opinion that tho
greater depth is impossible Of attain
mont, and that it ought not to be
sought. On the contrary, have strong
hopes, based upon tine results of our
work, that favorable report upon this
project may lie justified. 1t Cannot ie
reported upon until it mas been fully
investigated.
