ly to Her r ate.

| " W T'er ahes
Port Townsend, Wash, Jan. T.
News of the wreck of the Norwegian
| drowning of eighteen of the crew was
received during the day. The Prince
Arthur was bound from Valparaiso for
British Columbia to load lumber. On
the night of Jan. 2 the vessel ran into
breakers and was soon hard and fast
on the rocky shore. The scene of the
disaster Is about two miles south of
Ozette. on the Washington coast, If
teen miles from Cape Flattery. This
Is precisely the position In which the
German bark Flotbek was rescued by
tugs In the winter of 1900. AS the
Umatilla light vessel lies about three
miles of shore from Ozette, it is be-
lieved that the Prince Arthur mistook
the lightship for Tatoosh Island and
sailed eastward, believing she was
entering the Straits instead of running
blindly to her fate. OF the twenty
members of the Prince Arthur's crew
only two were saved and they were
nearly exhausted when they were
washed ashore. The bodies of eighteen
drowned seamen are being buried by
ranchers and Indians living near the
scene Of the disaster as they come
ashore.
Although Ozette is but thirteen miles
from Neah Bay, news of the wreck
was received by way of East Clallam,
having been brought out by neil car
rier over a twenty-dve-mile trail Ow-
Ing to the inaccessible location of
Ozette, only meagre details are OBJ
tainable.
The Prince Arthur was an iron bark
Of 1.5O9 tons built at Birkenhead in
1863. She was formerly called the
Head.
