The United States army transport
Mcpherson now lies off Old Point as
the result of Il broken shaft, sustained
four days out of San Juan, Porto Rico
The story of the voyage and the mis-
haps of the transport were cleaned last
night by a representative OF The Vir-
ginian-Pilot from ex-Assistant Quar-
termaster C. E. Norton, of Norfolk
and Lieutenant Macklln
MIR. Norton went to Cuba and Porto
Rico for the purpose of assisting in
the eXhuming and shipment to America
of the bodies of our soldiers who died
of wounds, accidents and disease. After
number of months labor his duties
were completed and he left Gibara,
Cuba, on the Mcpherson, February
18th for the United States, the destina-
ton being New York city. The trans
port had on board about LES bodies,
siXty-five of them being bones Of SOL
diers who died of yellow fever.
When several days out of San Juan
the Mcpherson encountered very heavy
weather and her main shaft broke and
left her helpless. Distress signals were
flown each day, and at night her
searchllght was elevated to get the
LiSHeSL range possible, ana distress
signals constantly made.
After four days the fruit steamer
Admiral Sampson, bound from Jamaica,
saw the Mcpherson. steamed up and
took her In tow and dropped her off
Old Point Comfort yesterday morning
about o'clock. The Mcpherson now
lies off Old Point. and 1t is understood
that she will probably not be repaired
here, but will go to New York in
tow.
Lieutenant Edgar A Macklin. of San
Juan, Porto Rico and wife were on
the Mcpherson and visited Norfolk
yesterday.
Major Hutchins. who is in command
of the Mcpherson, was severely in

much as $4,000 or $50 900.
Mr.. Norton was making his last trip
to the West Indies in the matter of
removing our soldiers and sailors re-
mains, and will go to Washington to-
morrow. where he will make his final
report and receive his discharge. He
