rarily manageable.
Her stern swung round and struck the
end Of a wooden pier, upon which a large
number of people had assembled. The
pier shook from end to end, the specta-
tors became panic-strcken and made an
ugly rush for escape. Ultimately control
of the ship was reganed, and she was
safely anchored.
Supt. Aisbett of the wrecking company
gave a representative of the Associated
Press to-day a contribution of a startling
nature to the controversy as to the cause
Of wrecks on the Manacles. He said:
I'm bringing the Paris to Falmouth she
narrowly escaped a big Manacle rock.
IT was ebb tide with a northerly wind
blowing, which would naturally take the
vessel south; but we found her getting
nearer and nearer the Manacles, until
within 400 yards of them, whereas we
ought to have been NIKE to the south
ward Things looked queer for time, but
we altered our tactics and cleared the
rocks.
From what have seen during the past
six weeks, / am confident some mysteri-

rocks. While working on the Paris we
warned numberless vessels of the danger
they were in"
