Disasters.
The tramp steamer Lochid arrived.
at Portland, Sunday, after a stormy
voyage of Is days across the
Atlantic. While passing Cape Sable
last Saturday, in thick fog
she struck rock or some sunken
obstruction and tore hole In
her iron plates near the bow The
greatest excitement prevailed for a few
moments, as the force of the collision
had been so great that the majority IF
the crew thought she might go down
1t was at first feared that hole had
been made in her hull amidships, but
on lifting the main hatch this portion
of the steamer was found to be free
from water. A big rent was located
in her forward plates and nothing bu.
the water-tight compartments pre-
vented her from being lost.
Vineyard Haven, Mass. July 20
The schooner Emma NJ Fox. Cap
tain Hopkins Of Bangor. Me-. from that
port for New York with lumber, ran
ashore on Hedge Fence shoal at II
o'clock last night. during fresh
northeasterly wind. The schooner re-
mains light and will probably be fioated
within a day or two.
The schooner Judge Low of Penn
broke. Me-. Captain Smith. from Calais
to Providence and Fall River, with a
cargo of lumber. ran ashore at 11.30
last night on Hedge Fence shoal, near
RI sob AZ
stranded half an hour before. The
Low fioated without assistance and pro-
ceeded. She was uninjured.
The schooner Lizzie d. Small. Cap
tain Kicker. reports that at 10 O'Clock
last night she sustained considerable
damage by eolliding with the masts of
the British schooner X. L. Devils
which was sunk by a collision last
week.
Belfast. Me-. July 26.-The four
master schooner Charles ]. Mcdonald
bound for Bangor, with COAL is ashore
off the west of Isleboro. Tugs have
been at work on her since the accident
happened, but she will have to be
lightened before she can be fioated. She
went on at high tide. and 1t is thought
considerable OF her cargo will have to
be taken out. She lies easy and will. it
is expected, be floated without serious
damage.
Halifax. n. s., July 26.--The steamer
"Harlaw" arrived. this afternoon She
brought l63 cattle, 35 sheep and 500
Bd1ess@of feed from the stranded
steamer Baltimore City. Captain Far
quhar reported that the Baltimore City
was on Flat Island with a slight list
to starboard. She had seven or eight
feet of water in her after hold AMI
three or four feet in her forward hold.
The cargo was all in the ship when
the Harlaw left. except a small lot
taken out by the Nimrod. Capt. Far
quhar thinks the steamer will be sue
cessfully fioated. The Baltimore City
ran on rock about 100 yards from
Fiat Island, in a thick fog. In n few
hours the cattle and sheep were thrown
overheard and they swan ashore.
The schooner Lakota. from Parrsboro
for Vineyard Haven for orders. with
laths. caught in the Parrsboro river.
Saturday night, and when the tide
left her she fell off very heavily. start
ing several planks and opening her up
so that she filled next tide. When she
fell off about 200.0 900 of the laths slid in
the river. Some have been picked up
and the rest went to sea- A schooner
is alongside discharging the balance of
the deckload and when that is done sh,,
VIII be moved to wharf and dis
charged and repaired.
