DISASTER MAY

Ship Found Floating Lumb-r in
Large Quantities on

Some lumber laden vessel has met
with disaster in a storm that ragged

southeast of the islands.
The italian ship wallacetown, which
arrived on Saturday, reports that in
latitude fifteen degrees north and longi-
tude 1856 degrees west, she encountered
large amount of floating lumber,
which was new and looked as if it had
just come from a vessel. The captain
of the Wallacetown says that he saw
sufficient amount of floating lumber
to make UP deck load of a large
schooner. At the time he encountered
the lumber the skipper states there was
a heavy sea running from west-north-

HARD LUCK TRIP
Disaster at Sea Caused Voyage
to Last Eight
Months.

The Italian ship Wallacetown arriv-
ed in port Saturday afternoon after ex-
periencing a hard luck passage from
London which occupied about eight
months time. The Wallacetown is a
staunch iron vessel. but her captain
says she was little more than match
wood when a South American hurri-|
cane had finished with her Finally.
after water had washed the greater
portion of the ships navigating instru-
ments overheard, the captain brought
his vessel into Callao for repairs, hav-
ing only one sextant and a lifeboat
compass with which to steer his course.
The Wallacetown made a fairly good
run of sixty two days to the Horn and
experienced the usual wea Their in round
ing the icy southern point of land, but
in thirty degrees south latitude
and ninety-five degrees west longitude
the vessel met with a hurricane. This

shortened, leaving only the main upper
topsail and the three lower topsails
spread to the wind, and steering right
before the wind, the ship tried to ride
out the storm. The vessel was speeding
when a tremendous wave was seen APP
preaching the ship from each side. 1t
was queer situation and before those
on the vessel had time to make such
changes as would allow them to meet
it the two waves met at about the
point the ship was located. Water was
piled high in the air. One big wave
swept over the ship. Two men who
were at the wheel were swept away
from it and their bodies piled hard up
against the cabin. One man had both
legs broken and the other an arm brok-
en-. The force of the wave smashed the
wheel and flooded the cabin. AS the
water was sucked out again nearly all
of the cabin appointments were swept
overheard and the navigating instru-
ments and many of the ships charts
went also. Heavy wind carried away
the four sails that were set.
Then for three days the vessel labor
ed very heavily in the storm, and the
officers had but little hope of weather
ing it. Later when the storm subsidized
they shaped course for Callao, and
with few charts and scant navigating
instruments the vessel was taken into
that port without further mishap. As
the wheel had been destroyed tackle
was rugged to the tiller and in this
rough way the vessel was steered into
port
On arrival at Callao the vessel had
used up 1872 days in the passage from
London. Then fifty-eight days time
was required in the South American
port To make repairs to the vessel. The
injured men We're placed in hospital
and later sent back to Italy by steamer.
The passage from Callao to Honolulu
was made in forty-seven days and no
unusual weather was encountered.
