Stranded Ships Afoat.

The remarkable achievement of saw
ing fleet of eight stranded British
steamships which we're driven ashore
in the hurricane which swept Galveston
on Sept. 8 has just been completed,
under the direction of Philadelphian,
who was sent there to perform this
difficult feat by the London Salvage
Association. Some idea of the under
taking may be gathered from the fact
that one of the vessels, the British
steamship Taunton, was driven to Cedar
Point, 27 miles inland from Galveston
harbor, says the Philadelphia Record.
The London underwriters alone had
risks on the stranded vessels which ag-
gregated 81 ,25O,OOO. Several Of the yes
sells had part cargoes on board for
European account.
When Mr.. Boyt arrived at the scene
of the disaster Galveston harbor was a
mass of wreckage. The British steam
ships Norma Benedict, Red Cross Hi
larius, Taunton, Kendle Castle and
Roona were found nearly high and dry,
the Taunton being, as it was thought at
that time, too far away to ever again
reach deep water. Some were imbed-
ded deep in the sand, while others were
scattered about with only three or four
feet of water under their bottoms.
The Taunton was in the centre of a
grazing country, near Cedar Point, and
in order that she could be moved toward
deep water several dredging machines
were employed to dig channel to Gal
weston harbor, and in 30 days the vessel
was ahoat and began loading cargo for
European ports.
The work of floating the others, while
not so difficult, was an undertaking,
nevertheless, which required consider
able dredging and pulling. Although
all the vessels were more or. less dam
aged, all were declared in condition,
when afloat, to load outward cargoes,
which they did.
