A FOUR MASTED SHIP SINKS.
She Goes Down In Storm With Her
Entire Crew.

Halifax, n. S, Oct 3.-The British
bar1entine st. Peter arrived here to-
day partially dismasted. She was struck
by a hurricane on the night of Sept. s
and compelled to put about for Halifax
in order to, repair the damage. Captain
Skaling brings the startling report that
the storm through which his vessel had
passed was the cause of sending to the
bottom a four-masted iron sailing ship
which must have carried crew OF at
least 4o or SO men. The St. Peter and
the other vessel had been sailing near
each ether all day of the 9Th, but never
came within hailing distance. The
name could not be distinguished from
the deck Of the ST. Peter. When even
ing closed the big ship could plinly be
seen from the deck of the st. Peter
Then the hurricane swept the ocsan and
the crew Of the St. Peter had all they
could do to keep their vessel afoat
When the st. Peter righted herself,
on the 9th, nothing was to be seen of
the fourmasted ship sighted the day
before, but shortly after the barkentine
passed the floating wreck of a ships
deck and deck house which they idenu-
fed as belonging to their sailing com
panion of the previous day. The con-
ditfon of the ST. Peter rendered it i'm
possible for the crew to make an exam
ination of the wreckase in order to
learn the name of the ship, but Captain
Skaltng is satisfied that the other vessel
went down with every soul on board
No small boats could have lived in the
water in such hurricane.

The vessel ran into the violent north~
east gale which ragged along the coast
Friday night when off Bcrnegat. She
sprang a leak An hands were called
to the pumps, but they were feeble
against the incoming waters. Finally
a crash sounded and a moment later
the ship sWirlei in a tremendous sea
and capsized. She was sighted from
shore, bat the task of rescue was nope

beach was thronged with persons, help
