STARTLING
Reasons for Believing That an I'm

Ships to the Manacles.

FALMOUTH, July 13.-On entering
the tidal harbor to-day the steamer
Paris, recently aground on the Mana
cles, under the influence of the wind
and tide became temporarily unman-
ageable. Her stern swung round and
struck the end of wooden pier upon
which a large crowd of people had as
sembled. The pier shook from end to
end, the spectators became panic
stricken and made an ugly rush for
escape. Ultimately control OF the ship
was regained and she was safely an
chored.
Supt. Aisbett, of the wrecking COM
panies, gave representative of the

of startling nature to the controversy
as to the cause of wrecks on the Mana

big manacle rock. 1t 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
wards OF them, whereas we ought to
have been mile to the southwark.
Things looked queer for time, but
we altered our tactics and cleared the
rock.
From what | have seen during the

mysterious current draws the vessels
towards the rocks. While working on
