ALMOST A GREAT CATASTROPHE.
Morgan city Came Near sinking Re-
fore Reaching shore.

Yokohama, Sept. s, via Victoria, B. c.,
sept l9.-lnteresting details are at hand
OF the wreck of the American transport
Morgan City on the inland sea of Japan.
1t appears that it came very near being
an appalling catastrophe. Striking upon
a reef at O'Clock in the morning, the ship
remained fast until daylight, when by
adopting the expedient Of pushing the men
alternately from one side TO the other,
the ship was rolled from the rocks into
deep water, where she at once began 10
fill rapidly. She headed for the shore =
the island of Inoshima, several miles dis
tant, sinking percepubly with every yard
of progress.
Had she not reached the beach she
would have gone under in another minute.
The discipline of the men was admirable,
and all were gotten ashore in safety. The
seamanship shown appears not to have
been spent so admirably as no precautions
were taken to make the boat fast to the
shore after Bleaching. The delay was spent
in removing stores, the transport lying
very nearly bows under, but well afioat
in the after part.
Late in the afternoon, without warning
she slid off the steep beach and sunk in
about six fathoms
A more favorable spot for a shipwreck
could scarcely be found. The island of
Inoshima is about a dozen miles from Hi
roshma, CHIEF city of the iu.and state. Al
most instantly came aid from the Japan
ese authorities, the cruiser Yosohomo be
ing at once dispatched and the Red Cross
Society sending relief expedition. The
troops are loud in their appreciation of
Japanese kindness

put into Yokohama short of coal and wa

WILL GO TO SOUTH ATLANTIC.
Rear Admiral Schley Says He win
Take That station.

Washington Sept. 19.--Rear Admiral
Winfield Scott Schley will succeed Rear
Admiral Howison in command of the
South Atlantic station
He has no protest 10 make against the
assignment which the navy department
selected for him. AS a saiior he Will obey
orders without murmur.
He called on the President this afternoon
and told him that he had no complaint TO
make; that he would cheerfully assume
the duties of any post selected by the
authority which il has been his pride 70
serve for forty-three years
Rear Admiral Schley was very reucent
when he left the White House. after his
interview with the President, and except
TO say that he always obeyed orders wouli
make no statement as 10 the interview,
and offered no comment upon the assign
ment to the command of the South At
lantic station,
To the rear admiraTs friends the Presi-
dent has said that he regards the station
of great Importance, especially at this
time, in view of the situation In South
Africa, and the unsettled condition of af-
fairs in some Of the South American coup-
tries. Far from regarding the assignment
as slight the President told Admiral
Schleys friends he regarded Il as mark
of distinction.
Besides. he said it was the only way
to crafty the admirars desire for sea serv-
ice. The Asiatic squadron is in command
of Rear Admiral Watson, and Rear Ad-
mral Farquhar who is Admiral Sehley's
senior, has been selected for the command
of the North Atlantic squadron when Rear
Admiral Sampson leaves il after the Dew
ey reception in New York
The only other squadron commensurate
with the dignity of a Tag officer Of Rear
Admiral Scheys rank, therefore, is the
South Atlantic. 1t is possible In view of
the Importance attached TO the station at
this time. that some additional ships will
be assigned to the squadron, which now
consists only of the flagship Chicago, the
Wilmington and the Machias.

STEAMER CHEROKEE ASHORE.
Went on in a Fog Near Where City
of Columbus Went Down.


Basque Island Mass, Sept l9.-The
Clyde Line steamer Cherokee, Capt. Nc
Kee, bound from Jacksonville, Fla, for
Boston. with a large cargo of miscellaneous
freight and six passengers, went ashore
on the southeast end Of Naushon Island,
in Vineyard sound, shortly after noon to-
day in a dense fog, staving a large hole in
the forward part of her hull. Her No. ,
hold is full of water, but the full extent
OF her damage cannot be ascertained until
she is iloated.
Her after compartments remained free
from water owing to the tight bulkheads
and her engines remain in good working
order. The vessel is nearly on an even
keel, heading eastward and perfectly
easy. 1t is thought that with favorable
winds she can be tioated.
The passengers were taken off by the
revenue cutter Dexter, which landed them
al New Bedford from which place they
will proceed to Bestcn.
The Cherokee lies very near the spot
where the steamer City of Columbus
stranded fourteen years ago.
