Halifax, n. S., Jan. 1J.-The steamer
Ursula Bright, Captain Whitson, %

Roads, put in here to-day short Of coal
and viii proceed tomorrow morning.
Capt. Whitson reports having encoun-
tered a succession of terrific westerly
gales and hurricanes ON the passage. The
snip was also short handed, 13 of the
crew having refused duty. These men
asked for their discharge at Hayre on
December 20, but as the articles stated
that their time was not up until Decem-
Der 81, the captain refused their request
and they then decided they would not
turn to. Captain WhitsOn tried every
means possible to get them to go to work
but they would not, so as a last resort
he put them on bread and water. Their
articles OF agreement show that they
shipped at Sunderland in July for St
John, N. B., the agreement not to ex-
tend beyond the 31st Of December, 1893,
or the vessels first subsequent return
to her port of destination in the United
kingdom. The steamer left Havre on
December %, so their time expired in
mid-ocean- The captain and officers
had a most trying time working the ship
through tie many storms. The mon
claim they have a good case and will
likely settle the matter in the courts on
