on New England caast-sTwo Schooner
Wrecked on epy Head Light station.
Heroic tsrseueby Lisr Saving Grew.
VINEYARD HAVEN. Mass, Dec /.
The schooners Amelia @, Ireland, OF
New York, ana the Clara Leavitt, Of
Portland, Me-. were wrecked Saturday
night, near the Gay Head life aavinB
station, The captain, mate and four
seamen from the Leavitt and one sea-
man from the ireland were drowned.
The captain, mate and four 6eamen o.
the ireland were saved ana one man
came ashore from the Leavttt on wreck
age.
It was about $3.50 O'clock In the ilerc-
est OF the storm that the Gay Head lie
saving patrol saw the flash OF a torch Ia
the direction OF Dog Fish bar Ag quick-
~ as possible Captain HaVman MUSTER
ed his crew and IN q few minutes a life
boat and all the apparatus necessary
drawn by q yoke OF oxen, was on rs
way to the nearest point 20 the bar,
which was two and q half miles from
the station.
It was ii o'clock before the men
reached the position they sought. They
were too late. When they came 70 the
beach. Wfeckage from the Veaael was
coming ashore. giving evidence that she
had gone to pieces. A fragment showed
the vessel to have been the Clara Leav-
itt. Later, clinging to q broken plank,
one man was drlven IN and rescued
from the waves. He was carried TO the
station.
While the life savers were peertng In
to the storm In an effort 70 discover ans
other possible survivor, another signal
torch was seen from a vessel which was
at that moment almost upon the bar.
The next instant she struck, but went
on In position a little less exposed to
the fury Of the waves, and she did not
go TO pieces. An attempt was made to
launch the life boat, but 1t was swept
back like q chip.
Il was then decided to try shooting a
line to the wreck, but this could not be
done until daylight, With the frst ap-
pearanee Of dawn. the gun carriage was
drawn up for service. Seven men could
be seen clinging to the rigging OF the
vessel. The line was shot toward the
schooner, but It fell short. The attempt
was twelve times REPEATED without suc7
cess Meanwhile the wind had shifted
more to the northeTly and was colder,
and the snow had turned 10 hail.
Spurred by the sight Of the men IN
the rigging and the Increasing severity
OF the storm, another trial OF the surf
boat was made. The craft was tossed
back on the beach. Seven times the
boat was launched and the most per-
slstent EFFORTS OF the crew 20 breast the
waves was Of no avail. on the eighth
trial, however, success came, and un-
der the tremendous strokes of the men,
the boat was driven from wave to wave
until she reached the vessel. One sea-
man had perished, but the captaln,mate
and four sailors were barely alive, were
rescued and taken to the station.
The vessel was the Amelia g. Ireland.
When the messenger who brought the
story OF the wreck and rescue left Cav
Head, the shipwreclked men were all In
q serious condition from exposure.
Several other members Of the life
saving crew were more or less injured
while engaged In their attempt ct res.4

NO JOINT SESSION

OF the Peace Commissions on Account OF
tha Clerical work not BetRG completed.
Dl1zy story from Philippines.
PARIS, Dec. 1.-The work OF the
peace commission is proceeding rapidly
and unless there Is an unexpected
bitch, the treaty win be signed within a
week
General Wesley Merritt, who arrived
here yesterday from London, leaving
his wife conValescent, was In consulta-
tlon with the American commission all
this morning, relative to the conditions
and necessary measures IN the Philip
pine islands.
General Merritt expects to sail for
New York on December 10 and hopes to
resume his duties In California or New
York until his retirement, eighteen
months hence.
Major Hale, OF General Merrttt'S
stan, who 10 now here, believes the
United States, having taken the Philip
pine Islands, viii now have no trouble
in securing the release Of the 6paniards
who are held prisoners by Agutnaldo,
The peace commissions did not hold a
Joint sesSlon to-day, owing to the fact
that It was ascertained at p. m. that
the preliminary clerical work was not
completed. II was therefore agreed by
the president to defer the next meet
ing until 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
From Information which comes TO the
correspondent OF the Associated Press
from q well authenticated source, late
this evening, It seems unlikely that
the commissions Wild finish their work
az soon as had been expected. It is
probable that the negotiations will last
considerable longer.
Madrid has instructed the Spanish
commissioners on three points, to
which the Americans attach much Inn
Bortauee. These are the cessaoR Of an
Island in the Carolines, the granting OF
religious freedom over the whole Of the
Carolines, and the cession OF u cable
and CoaiinE station at Ceuta.
The Spanish government has in-
structed Senior Montero Rios to grant
none OF these, and while Spain may ul-
tlmAtely Yield to them ali. it ID admit
ted that the American commissioners
have no power to enforce their de-
mandB on points not covered by the
protocol. Before Spain does yield, the
negotiations arc likely to be prolonged,
anu the United States may have to
give o substantial quid pro quo.
