FISHERMEN MAKE BRAVE
ATTEMPT TO RESCUE THE CREW

Etang Du Nord, Magdaena Islands
Dec. 5.-Full particulars of the loss of
the steamer Nuremberg with one of
her owners, r. l. Leslie. and ten of
her crew at Outer Sand Beach, oppo-
site Amherst Harbor ten miles south
of this port were received today. The
steamer struck the beach during a
thick snow storm early yesterday
morning and is a total wreck The
steamer and cargo were valued at
$50, 900.
The steamer was attempting to en-
ter Amherst harbor at the time of the
disaster. The thick northeast snow
storm prevailed and heavy sea con-
stantly swept the vessels decks. The
lighthouse at Amherst could be seen at
times, however. and Captain Pride
supposed he cleared the beach. Sud
denly a great wave literally picked up
the steamer and left her stranded di-
rectly opposite the entrance to the
harbor
Attempts to float the craft proved
useless but all hands We're able to
keep themselves from being washed
overheard, although the seas contin-
u0usly swept the decks.
Two hours after daylight the wreck
was sighted from the shore A number
off five of the crew. AT this time the
steamer was apparently little damaged
and the others declined to abandon
her. At o'clock in the afternoon the
storm increased i'm violence and those
on shore saw that the steamer was
doomed to destruction.
Mr. Leslie Captain Pride and the
other men on the vessel lowered a boat
and attempted to reach land, not a
great distance away but In the furious
seas the crew could make little head
way.
Fishermen on the island saw the
boat launched but the storm quickly
shut off their view. The fishermen
started for the wreck, but when they
reached the scene they found that the
steamers boat had been overturned.
and that OF the dozen men who were
in her, only one remained. The person
was Captain Pride. He clung TO the
overturned boat until rescued by the
fishermen. Mr.. Leslie was a member
of the provincial parliament Of Que
bee from the Magdalena Island dis
