Boston, Sept. 20.--Nine dories from the

lost in the fog, about Is miles oi. Chat
ham..from Cape Cod Monday night. and
have since been at the mercy of the $, as
They contained d is men, two III each dory,
and all are probably d >owred.
The Maggie sullivan is a schooner
riEseu nsning vessel of 120 tons. and left
this port the latter part OF last week on
4 fishing trip carrying the regular crew
she cast anchor off Cape Cod and ols-
patched the crew in the accustomed
manner in small dories for fishing pur-
i,vsra,
On Monday these dories were between
a mile and half and three miles off the
schooner, when a sudden darkness and
thick fog put them completely out Of
sight of tn, main vessel and Of land as
we'll.
About II lock yesterday forenoon
the Maggie Sullivan was sighted by a
similarly rieged vessel, the Lizzie Griffin,
off Chatham. in a helpless condition, only
five men being aboard and these entire
ly powerless. so far as manning the veP-
SCI was concerned. Every possible aid
was offered the distressed fishing schoon-
cr and five men were put aboard to bring
her safely to port.
AS Is the custom CS, all Of the fishing
smacks which " ave this harbOr the Mag.
gle Slllivan distributed the men in pairs.
in its Gories, to differ ent sections OF the
Gshing grounds. They generally leave
the main craft in the early morning and
return soon after nightfall. When s
O'Clock arrived on Monday night, and the
men had not arrived, with no apparent
signs of their doing so, the worst was
feared, and all night long diligent
search was made to locate them.
Tuesdays effort to find any of the
missing dories was without success.
The schooner Lizzie Burns was return
ing from a successful fishing trip yes
terday about II o'clock in the forenoon,
when it sighted the Maggie Sullivan with
| a signal Of distress at the masthead.
She immediat tely ran alongside.
Captain sullivan Of the unfortunate
vessel refused positively to say anything
last evening ard all the information that
could be gaired was CLEANED from the
rien who boarded her from the Lizzie
Griffin.
All agreed that the is men in the dories
were probably lost.
