ALL HANDS SAVED
But Fisherman Dawson City Is High
and Dry on Cape Cod.

ProvincetoWn, Mass, Oct. 25-Eigh-
teen men, members of the crew of the
Gloucester fishing schooner Dawson
City, are resting at Provincetown, to-
day, after a perilOus experience, last
night, when their vessel was wrecked
between Race Point station and Race
Point light, and IA of their number res
cued with difficulty by the life savers
from the Race Point life saving station.
The remaining four succeeded in
launching dory from the stranded
schooner. and after suffering considera-
BILE hardship effected q landing at
Provincetown. After the crew had been
taken from the vessel the high break
ers forced her we'll up on the beach.
This afternoon the tugs Mercury and
Pallas tried to float her, but were I'M
successful.
The Dawson City was commanded by
Capt. Dennis O'Neil. The schooner had
just completed satisfactory trip to
the fishing banks and came into this
port, yesterday, to dispose of the car
go After obtaining new supplies Capt.
O'Neil started out, last night, to re-
turn to the banks.
The tide was running in strongly at
the time with high breakers, and it is
believed that Capt. O'Neil miscalculat-H
ed the effect of this as he stood out to
sea.

lowing additions have been made to tned
effective force of the navy during the 4
year: ,,
One battleship, four monitors, twelve
torpedo boat destrOyers, one torpedo
boat and seven submarine torpedo
boats. The list should have been in
creased by two battleships and five
cruisers, the report states, but owing to
strikes and other causes their compile
ton was delayed.
The report states that the rate of J
progress or vessels under construction
at the present time presents some very
encouraging indications for completion
of many of the most important con-
tracts, but considered as whole the
progress made during the last fiscal
year has been very unsatisfactory.
Among the improvements referred to at
the yards named are the following: At
Kittery, Me-, new stone dry dock 400 feet
long; at Boston, new foundry fitted with
modern improvements; New York. the
construction of piers and the removal ofha
cob dock: League Island, extension or
