M~arlnette, Wis, Oct. 6. During a

drowned. The Goodrich line steamer
S~hebOygan rescued the other nine
persons On board the Hackley after
they had tloated about on pieces of
wreckage all night. Report Of the dis
aster reached M~arinette yesterday.
The Hackley was struck by the
squall when sever miles off Green isl

away before the men could reach a
haven. The boat then turned over and
went down in deep water.

three or four of the men, failing to
find any object to which to cling,

known. The waves were rolling high
and several of those who at first saved
themselves from immediate death
lost strength and sank. 1t was several
hours after the Hackley sank before
the ~ShebOygan hove within hailing dis
lance. The shouts of the floating men
attracted the attention of the sailors
on the S~hebOygan and every as
sistance was lent. The officers of the
SltebOygan feel sure that they took
aboard every person afOat. Some of
the persons who we're rescued say it is
possible that one 0 r more of the
Eleven Persons Missing
may have escaped death. This view Is
not given much credence by the sail
ors of the S~hebOygan. The Sheboygan
made into Fish Creek when hope Of
rescuing other persons seemed i'm
probable. The rescued persons were
so exhausted from their struggle
against drowning that they were I'M
able for some time to tell anything
about the wreck. The persons saved
by the Sheboygan say thai with the
crashing away of the upper work all
persons aboard the Hackley ran on
deck. Hasty preparations for a plunge
into the water were begun but before
any plans could be carried out the
boat listed, turned over and went
down like a rock. Search is still max
ing for any person who may have es-
capped death and for the bodies of
those who were drowned.
