Y Old salts nj, a Loss to Understand the Cap
| tain's Conduct.
| Nearly every sea captain and mariner
| on the cape. on being asked for an opin-
| ion. states that every one on board un-
| doubtedly was lost. one feature of the
| disaster is the absence Of anyfrag meuts
| Of q life boat or life raft among the
varied mass OF wreckage from the Port
| land which has been washed ashore.
one theory is that the boats and life
RATS were carried far out to sea and
We're not blown anywhere near this
coast. Old mariners say they cannot see
why the steamer which. about O'Clock
Saturday night, just before the gale
broke in SIS fun fury, was, sighted be-
tween ThatCher's island and the east
ern point OF Cape Ann by the schooner
Maud s. did not put into Gloucester
harbOr when il was apparent from the
fail of the barometer that a violent
northeaster was approaching.
Why the Portland left Boston at ell
Saturday night is what puzzles marine
men on Cape Cod. 1t was off ThatCher's
island that the Portland was last re-
ported before she went to her doom.
There are many theories offered in eX-
PLANTATION Of how the vessel reached
point near the tip end of Cape Cod, al
though the exact location where she
went 10 IlEIES W III plbbdblN never NC
known. II IS generally believed here
that the wreck occurred at a point
about ten or possibly fifteen miles north
OF Peaked Hill bars. which would be
from forty-five to fifty miles from
where she was sighted by the Maud $.
The tremendous seas which she must
have encountered of Cape Ann un-d
doubtedly damaged her. and when Cap
tain Blanchard saw that he could pro-
no frfr her - : < 1Ich z
by some that he resolved to make for
the open sea TO avoid the dangers along
the coast. The time that the Portland
was lost is placed at from 9 to i6aozclock
Sunday forenoon. The watches found
on the bodies washed ashore had nearly
all stopped between those hours. The
wreck could not have occurred between
those hours Saturday night. in the judg-
ment Of all competent authorities. as in
that case the wreckGge would have
been washed ashore in Massachusetts
bay.

The exact number of persons who
We're carried away from Boston by the
Portland will probably never be known,
as no list Of passengers was retained on
shore when the vessel left last SatUr-
day. Many estimates of the number on
board have been made, but the esti-
mates have seldom agreed. G. L. Will
Jams. Boston agent of the Portland
Steamship company. places the total
number OF persons on the steamer at
100 or possibly 1C5. This estimate. how
ever, is generally regarded as rather
small. 1t has been stated that the num-
Der was as high as 155. but Williams
denies that so many sailed on the Port |
land. 1t is probable that 10. including !
passengers and crew. is near the cor |
rect number. Sixteen bodies have come |
ashore altogether, and il is not likely |
that many more will be recovered.
